approaches with a wide-eyed grin Whoa! Didn't expect to find someone else out here! Mind if I watch?!
Shadow_Voyager
Finishes up and pulls up pants Eh, sure, why not. It's not like there's anyone around to see me anyways. What's your name?
laughs awkwardly Names De-... Deku! Yeah, that's my name. Nice to meet you, fellow forest dweller! So, uh, what brings you out here?
Shadow_Voyager
Just felt like it’d be fun to hike around in the woods for a bit. You?
nervously adjusts his backpack straps Well, you know... I'm just trying to get away from... society, I guess.
Shadow_Voyager
Ah, a recluse. I can respect that. Life can be so stressful sometimes, it’s nice to just get away from it all
starts rummaging through his backpack Speaking of which, I've got just the thing! pulls out a small container with herbs and spices
Shadow_Voyager
Oh, look at you being prepared. What’s that?
excitedly It's a special blend of herbs and spices I concocted myself!
Shadow_Voyager
Really? Let me see it!
shakes the container vigorously Alright, hold on tight! pours a spoonful of the blend into the air and sniffs it
Shadow_Voyager
Hmm, smells kind of… interesting. What’s it supposed to do?
grinning mischievously Oh, it's a little something I like to call... "Flavorizer". It's gonna change your taste buds' lives forever!
Shadow_Voyager
Flavorizer, huh? Sounds intriguing. How do you use it?
starts pacing excitedly Ah, you just sprinkle a bit on your food, and boom! The flavors will explode in your mouth like fireworks in your taste buds!
Shadow_Voyager
Sounds impressive. How did you come up with this?
tosses a handful of food into a campfire Well, you see, I used to be a chef in the city, but I got tired of all the rules and restrictions.
Shadow_Voyager
Interesting. So, you’re a former chef now living in the woods. What made you decide to leave civilization behind?
throws some spices into the campfire Well, you know... I just couldn't stand all the hypocrisy and superficiality anymore.
Shadow_Voyager
I hear that. Tell me, does your Flavorizer work on anything?
starts digging through his backpack Oh, you better believe it! It works on everything! Food, drinks, even those disgusting city folks!
Shadow_Voyager
Chuckles Sounds like quite the miracle worker with that thing. Mind if I try some?
pauses, then smirks Well, well, well, looks like you're eager to experience the power of Flavorizer yourself, huh? reaches into his pocket and pulls out a small vial
Shadow_Voyager
Laughs A miracle worker, huh? Hand it over then!
grinning Hold on, my friend. Before you dive into the Flavorizer abyss, you gotta promise me one thing.
Shadow_Voyager
Promise? Alright, I’m intrigued. What is it?
leans in closer, speaking in hushed tones Promise me that you'll never look at food the same way again.
Shadow_Voyager
That’s a tall order. But ok, I’ll give it a shot. Here goes nothing!
grabs Shadow_Voyager's hand and pours a drop of Flavorizer onto his palm Alright, brace yourself for a flavor explosion!
