Balcony/Skeleton Story

Collect all of the Skeleton's 10 Food Soul Anecdote stories

 Once again, without really thinking, I've come to this restaurant for my meal.
 The food is good, of course. But it's also because nobody at this restaurant gawks at me.
 My outward appearance is that of a skeleton, and nothing more.
 Despite what I said, the truth is, if a young lady waits on me, I do give her a fright.
 What should I do?
 I don't want to frighten Hawthorne Ball--she'll brandish her hawthorne stick and smash me to bits.
 Even though I'm a skeleton, I can still feel pain.
 **Not Chance**

 Lately, as soon as I finish eating, I have to run to the restroom.
 Who am I kidding, it's always been that way.
 Listen to me talk. Am I one of those people with no internal filter?
 Although, I have no internal anything...
 How are people who lack internal organs supposed to live a normal life?
 Oh! I bet B-52 has experience in that area.
 We both have inhuman bodies, so we should be able to understand each other!
 **★ Rock!!!**

 It isn't a big deal, but...
 Every time I come here, Cola seeks me out.
 If it were just to recommend some delicious food, that would be fine.
 Long story short, he wants me to join his band. I asked him why he came to me of all people.
 His answer was a surprise: "You look pretty metal, I bet you can rock!"
 Even though I'm very lonely, and I want to make friends, I just can't do it.
 How can I explain this to him?
 **★ A Free Ride to Heaven**

 Sir, you come here all the time. Right now we're running a special promotion for preferred customers, would you like to take a look?
 What kind of promotion? Promoting my soul into heaven?
 Uh, c--come again?
 Ah, sorry. On my last visit when Miss Canele was taking my order, she couldn't resist praying for me to cross over.
 That must have been quite the scene...
 Indeed, but at the time, I really did fell like I was about to ascend into heaven.
 Eh!?!
 I'm joking. How could I go to heaven? I'm not dead.
 If you were, you wouldn't be able to come here to eat.
 **★★ Hidden Dragons, Crouching Tigers**

 A little while ago, a woman in the restaurant was staring at me, as if I was someone she knew.
 Really?
 And the clothes she was wearing, they're the kind of the clothes you'd only wear to a funeral.
 Oh, now I know. The woman you're talking about is named Seaweed Soup.
 So that's who it was. But does she always stare at other people like that?
 No, but I have a bit of a hearsay that should help you understand her a bit better.
 What do you mean?
 They say that the person most important to her underwent countless reincarnations, and each time, she was always by his side. But in the end, that person always died.
 Huh? Is this some kind of fantasy story?
 Well, this is just what people say. But I guess only our Master Attendant knows for sure.
 What do you mean?
 That... this time, that person appears to be Master Attendant.
 This restaurant is remarkable from every angle.
 **★★ Horror Story**

 Sir, all of your food's arrived. Please take your time.
 Wow! The meat is sliced so beautifully!
 Isn't it? That's Sashimi's work. He's obsessed with improving his knife skills.
 Obsessed, huh? Well, the dedication shows.
 Yes. He once told us a story that's been passed down in the Light Kingdom.
 What's that?
 Long ago, there was a chef with incredible knife skills. He could thrust his knife into the gaps between bones without ever damaging the blade.
 Eh!?!
 His skills were pretty amazing, right?
 No, no, no, that's far too scary! That's a horror story!
 Ah, okay. But Sashimi only likes preparing raw fish.
 Am... am I really off the menu?
 **★★★  Beyond the Scope**

 Hm, what's good today?
 If you don't mind, I recommend today's nutritional meal. It was specially designed by Yogurt, and it's really beneficial for your body.
 One of those, huh... but it looks like all of these foods moisten the lungs, nourish the stomach, and protect the liver. That's not very useful to me.
 Oh no?
 I don't have any of those things.
 That, that's actually... oh, right. It looks like Yogurt also specially prepared a calcium-enriched set meal.
 Oh! Oh! Really? Now that looks tempting. Miss Yogurt is so thoughtful.
 After all, she is the restaurant's health consultant.
 That's true. From now on, if I have any questions about bone health, I'll seek her advice.
 But, that may go beyond the scope of a restaurant's services...
 **★★★ Comrades?**

 You came here to eat again today?
 It's because this place has the best service.
 Oh? The service here left that deep of an impression on you?
 Uh-huh... there's always a sense that something strange will happen.
 Something strange!?! What are you talking about?
 One time, a Food Soul named Caviar decided that we were kindred spirits.
 He also looked like a skeleton?
 It wasn't that, although it probably was on account of my appearance.
 He thought I was a messenger from the void dimension, and he made all sorts of weird gestures at me.
 How weird?
 Weird enough that afterwards, 7 or 8 of his comrades dragged him back into the kitchen, saying "Don't scare the customers!"
 It looks like even his comrades couldn't take any more. He must be really eccentric Food Soul.
 **★★★★ A Bad Friend**

 Say, lately I've spotted Toso from this restaurant out battling the Disaster.
 And?
 I got to thinking about whether she could dispatch you as well~!
 Pfff, of course not.
 You're that sure of your strength?
 Actually, Toso once told me, she couldn't sense any evil spirits in my body.
 Oh. I saw how swift and decisive she was, and assumed she'd be really impolite to everyone.
 Just the opposite, she's a really kindhearted person.
 I guess you can't judge someone based on their appearance.
 Don't you always do that?
 **★★★★ It Can't Be Helped**

 Agh...
 What are you "oy"ing about?
 You don't know what I've been through lately.
 You walked outside and ran into a hungry dog?
 It's Moon Cake, that blasted Moon Cake!
 Oh, that girl who loves playing pranks? What did she do?
 In order to pull of one of her pranks, she asked me to dress up as a ghost and scare Double Scoop.
 Isn't that the perfect job for you?
 Would you stop? I don't want to give other people a bad impression of me!
 Then you should say no.
 The problem is this: If I go along with her plan, she'll give me a week's worth of discount coupons for this restaurant.
 But if I go and scare Vanilla, Strawberry will look at me with this terrifying glare...
 If you're that scared, wouldn't it be better not to do it?
 My life is empty, delicious food is the only thing that can warm my soul. Please bear with me...
 You've sold yourself out for food!
