AAaA Braggadocio
A merry Christmas dinner to all our vegan readers–oh, that’s right, they all left after this one.
Phil was the more heavyset of the two of us, so I sometimes followed her lead when deciding what was and wasn’t an appropriate “fat joke.” I think what makes Braggadocio work is his very healthy self-acceptance: his weight is not mentioned nearly as often as (and seems to be mostly a side effect of) his transcendent, transformative joy in eating. Life’s a banquet, dig in… or as my wife puts it, “Food is delicious.”
And boy, if you thought the kobold-skinning Tignos was problematic, here’s Braggadocio, who has now followed up his “Who counts avians unless you’re stuffing a pie” with “I’ll show you how to grill and filet a land shark!” (Not sure whether ents are intelligent in our world, too.) Apparently even use of language doesn’t stop this guy from declaring you potential food. Sure hope that roving palate of his doesn’t come back to… er… bite him, somehow.
There’s nothing wrong with having some Rabbit, is there?
I guess the Landsharks are thinking the same thing?
Man, imagine if Brag and Hammerhead had a conversation about who tasted better.
My ratfolk character in one Pathfinder game is pretty much on same level with Brag here. If it ain’t your species, it’s probably edible. And even wasting your fellow ratfolk corpses is just that, a waste. It might not work for you ro eat it, but you can probably find someone who would buy it off from you.
I assure you that we have been eating disgusting things all the time. The main difference here is that Braggadocio, unlike us, is aware of what’s he’s eating.
Anywho, I would actually try the eagle-lion liver paste. The BBQ monster pig ribs are practically normal food, and since it was established earlier that Akerra’s dragon-kin species are unintelligent beasts, the monster lizard meat is A-OK for me.
I would strongly object to the idea of eating man-tree wood and man-shark flesh, though
