When the door opened he looked up with a bright smile, waving.]
Hey! Special delivery. [He giggled a bit at himself as he reached into one of his upper pockets and pulled out one of the clear sticks visibly poking out the top.] One Doozer stick.
Mm-hmm. Doozers build these massive constructions with 'em, Fraggles tear them down by eating them, and since they have room again to keep building, they do it all over again.
[He gestured "Go on" with both his hands. Break off a piece, Kotori.]
[That sounds... really really weird... She actually tilts her head at him, and at the stick as she gently lifts it and then snaps it. Hm... it's almost like a cross between rock sugar and a dried pasta noodle with the shape and snap.]
Huh. So Doozers are... people? In your world? And do they mind you eating their buildings?
Yep! Knee high to a Fraggle. And naw, they don't mind us eating their buildings at all! It's in a Doozer's nature to build and if Fraggles didn't eat their constructions, they wouldn't have room to do it anymore and they'd move on, or who knows what else. So they put them up to be enjoyed, and well we Fraggles certainly enjoy them.
[Still, she's glad that the Fraggles aren't playing Fragglezilla to a bunch of poor helpless creatures' cities. Welp, time to break off a smaller piece and put it in her mouth. How's it taste, Gobo?]
[HUH. Combined with that candy-noodle texture from earlier, that's... really weird.]
Oh wow, that tastes better than I thought!
[Said through a chew before she has enough presence of mind to swallow it.]
That's really good, but... other than radishes and maybe a few other veggies, I can't tell what the ingredients are. How the heck would they make these?
I mean... we can try, but... honestly, this might be above my skill level, especially if I don't know what all the ingredients are or what methods they use.
Hm... well first we need radish powder... And the easiest way to get THAT, I think, might be to bake some radishes until they're dry, then grind those with a mortar and pestle.

[As for the taste of the Doozer stick, probably something similar to veggie straws, only with the spicy tang of raw red radishes.]

[Tail dipped for only a moment before he curled it back up, smiling brightly at her.]
Well, just give it your best try! And even if you don't manage them, I still appreciate you giving it a shot in the first place.
[Fraggles: too good for this sinful world]
Besides. [He snickered a bit.] I don't mind eating the experiments on the way, either.
[...And there's that, too.]
no subject
That's VERY true. Okay, let's see... so we need to make something hard, translucent, and can be flavored with... radish powder.
