[ she has like. zero idea what any of this in a literal sense -- like how it'll taste or whatever. but she does know the blends and flavours at least. ]
[ Look, I would give it to Zetsu that caramel is really hard to work with so I can understand the barista standpoint. However yeah I do love caramel so.
Yeah! This will surely have no problems at all. Meanwhile Ryuki who just gets a black coffee and a small little cake just so they have an excuse to hang out at the cafe for longer. ]
It's just-- knowing it and actually feeling it are different. I can read up anything on the physical descriptiors and natural reactions to pain, but it can't really account for experiencing it myself.
The concept of actual real life experience, versus just studying about it in books and never experiencing it for yourself?
[ listen, they get enough talking about parallel worlds and whatever naix is smoking, they can have a little philosophical discussion as a treat. ]
Yeah, I agree. Even before coming here, there were so many things I could “experience” that would never be quite the same way you were experiencing them, purely because you’re human.
What I was experiencing was a collection of other people’s experiences though. If something was cool to the touch, it was because the somnium’s owner subconsciously remembered it that way. But now it’s me actually touching things and analysing those sensations myself, and it does feel different.

[ He assumed Tama would get an iced because he suggested ice earlier. Or did the ice surprise you ma'am. ]

It burned me! I thought this was iced— [ hang on she’s going to have to pry the lid off to see the lack of ice cubes. ]

[ The way Tama can tell temperature from data but doesn't know what temperature actually FEELS like. ]

And it feels hot?
no subject
[ …. ]
I guess? I know the temperature hot is, but I don’t actually know how that feels. I don’t want to keep my hands on it for long though.
no subject
So if it feels like it hurts, then it's because it's something you shouldn't touch.
Both hot and cold things can feel that way, but they're a bit different.

[ Said in the France is Bacon way. ]
Well, think of it kind of like... a reverse psync. Since I was the one who couldn't interact with things, but you could.

[ That absolute bitch. I took philosophy for fun I can say I hate him. ]
You're kind of like in your own Somnium then.
no subject
Kinda? Only it’s real. We think.
[ (kingdom hearts voice) she’s been having weird thoughts lately… like, is any of this for real? or not? ]
no subject
If it's all about the experience, then Somnium are just as real.
