The "Dere" Festival

[Lucem]

If life is a loaf of bread, then I am the first slice that nobody wants to eat.

 

[The Doorman]

Nej, nej, the Door is open to all who consider~


There isn't a "nobody" so long as there is one.

 

[Lucem]

I'd actually prefer to not be eaten. I get to live in that scenario.

 

[The Doorman]

Haha, I am a door, I do not eat, friend, I only welcome and wish luck on those whose hour need seek it.

 

[BlacklegSanji]

That would mean I'm the last slice that is always thrown out

 

[Lucem]

It seems like we're both sides of the same loaf, Kirito.

 

[The Doorman]

None with sense would waste such a slice, then again, I am cursed to be nice.


Welcome one, welcome all, a second curse doth keep me tall.

 

[BlacklegSanji]

In the end we are both together, rejected by this cruel world

 

[The Doorman]

These words may be silent, but I know they speak volumes.


Hear me, strange familiars.

 

[Lucem]

Whether it be rye, wheat, or a simple white, the collective loaf brings us together. We are forever tied to the grain and forced to abide by the whim of the bushel. Such a stock has no means to hear such kind words.

 

[The Doorman]

As door and frame, I fear the same, not a word to speak lest crack or creak be what you seek... But remember, as a metaphor one is loafing, but as a life form, one is not toasting but living, breathing, lying and scheming, with parasites like us the whole world is teeming! All feel the water and call it emotion, but humans have no strength within the wide ocean!


Bread being a metaphor for human, for life, brings not with it what we call "strife".


Do you see my point? I went out on a limb... On a whim... On a metaphorical boat moved by words and struck by storms of the brain rather than the pain or the rain, not a stain but a stone, not cold as the word may suggest...


Ah, but I suppose all of this doesn't mean very much...


Why is it that I come to conclusion? Perhaps my poetic words simply fed this illusion.


Dear me.


I believe it is what I thought it might be... Personality, though strange, I will promise integrity!

Who knew bread could be so deep?

 

[Lucem]

Who knew bread could be so deep?

I was mere seconds away from replying with this exact sentence...


 
So, how's the work on Ianari coming along, Door?

 

[RealisticFantasy]

I went to dinner and came back to bread being a metaphor for life. xD

 

[The Doorman]

I find myself at a standstill, hostage to some sort of distraction.


Deep within myself I find it to be less important, but being persistent a distraction as it is, it prevails even when it fails.

 

[Lucem]

In the end, we'll all be baked.

I'm having a similar issue at the moment. I don't have a lot of time, but I find myself wasting it quite often.

 

[The Doorman]

A door cannot be baked, for it is to big to fit in the toaster.


I am wasting time speaking as we speak.

Unless it's a really big toaster

 

[BlacklegSanji]

It is also true in one way or another we all rise like the yeast you bake in the oven, but eventually there is a point where can reach no higher and you must stop, sometimes you even burn and find yourself at a lower point than you were previously, either way we still all become the loft that is at the end of our path and then we are eventually eaten.... piece by piece until we are gone.


 
industrial sized toasters....

 

[RealisticFantasy]

I will never be able to eat bread again without questioning my entire existence. Thanks, guys.

 

[The Doorman]

For all you know, we are all hellish vagrants, ReFa-Chan.


Mystery is to be pondered.

 

[BlacklegSanji]

Bread is also the manifestation of love and struggle, your need to get through the hard crust to get whats really good, the crust can be thick be thick and you may want to go around it or bypass it but eventually you'll have to do something to take care of it other wise you won't be able to enjoy whats really good.

 

[RealisticFantasy]

One day, I'm going to go make a sandwich and I'll just end up staring at the bread for hours because of this conversation.

 

[The Doorman]

I simply take a knife to the crust.


I am a violent soul, I know.


 
You said you looked forward to your time here, Refa-Chan...


Are you second guessing yourself?

 

[RealisticFantasy]

I'm not regretting anything. I'm contemplating just exactly how long I would stare at said bread.
