CARNIVORE!

Welcome to the restaurant.

Yes, you. Behind the screen.

Don’t look so confused. You’re already here.

Sheep: “Uh... are we just gonna ignore that they’re talking to someone who’s not in the kitchen?”

We are NOT ignoring it. We’re addressing it directly.

Chicken: “Nope. Nope, I don’t like that. Why can they see us?”

Fish: “I TOLD YOU THE RESTAURANT WAS HAUNTED.”

Cow: “Maybe they’re just... observing?”

Pig: “Focus. The order still exists regardless of observers.”

Deer (from the freezer): “HEY SCREEN PERSON! IF YOU CAN SEE ME, BLINK TWICE IF YOU WANT THESE GUYS TO SUFFER MORE.”

🐑 SHEEP

“Yeah, hi. I can see you too. This is weird for all of us.”

Sheep is the exhausted center of the kitchen.

She tries to keep things together, but now she also has to acknowledge that someone is watching this entire disaster unfold like it’s entertainment.

Sheep: “So you’re just... watching us work while we slowly lose our minds?”

Chicken: “DON’T ENCOURAGE IT.”

🐔 CHICKEN

“Stop looking at them! Why are you looking at them?! They’re LOOKING BACK.”

Chicken is in full panic mode at all times.

The fact that “you” are watching has made everything significantly worse.

Chicken: “This is worse than the orders. This is WORSE.”

Fish: “I hate that it feels true.”

🐟 FISH

“Okay so if the audience is real, does that mean my suffering is being rated?”

Fish is one existential crisis away from leaving the physical plane.

Fish stares directly at you like you caused this.

Fish: “Be honest. Am I the most normal one here?”

Deer: “NO.”

🐄 COW

“Hey... I don’t know who you are, but try not to judge us too hard.”

Cow is still trying to be polite to the unseen observer.

Even now.

Even here.

Cow: “This is... not usually how shifts go.”

Sheep: “It kind of is.”

Cow: “...Yeah. It kind of is.”

🐷 PIG

“Stop talking to the observer and focus on the system.”

Pig does not acknowledge the novelty.

Pig does not acknowledge the reader.

Pig acknowledges only the menu.

Pig: “If they are watching, it changes nothing.”

Deer: “BORING ANSWER.”

Pig: “It is correct.”

🦌 DEER

“HEY YOU! YEAH YOU! SCREEN PERSON!”

Deer is actively shouting through the freezer door.

Deer: “IF YOU’RE WATCHING THIS, TELL THEM I’M STILL ALIVE OUT HERE!”

Chicken: “Stop talking to them like they’re real!”

Deer: “THEY ARE REAL ENOUGH TO SEE ME BEING AWESOME.”

Fish: “That’s not how reality works.”

Deer: “SAYS WHO? THE NARRATOR?”

Yes. The narrator.

I see everything.

I explain everything.

And unfortunately for all of them...

So do you.

Sheep: “Okay, I officially don’t like this narration thing anymore.”

Chicken: “CAN WE GO BACK TO NORMAL HORROR?!”

Pig: “There was never anything normal.”

Cow: “They’re not wrong.”

Deer: “HI AGAIN SCREEN PERSON.”
