《The Perfect Specimen》Oh! Uh...Yum?

The moment Beths father hears this, he claps his hands and turns his head to the side, "Prepare a feast. We are welcoming back my daughter and celebrating my son!" He smiles and gestures for the group to follow him.
The father leads Alistair and the group into the manor which is just as beautiful on the inside as it is on the outside. Marble flooring and columns neatly arranged in the hall leading towards the dining room. Two servants stand in front of the double doors leading into the dining hall.
Each servant grabs a door handle and opens it in perfect sync revealing a room that could be better described as a greenhouse. Artificial sunlight recreated and foliage abundant at the base of each wall. A massive dinner table in the center of the room grabs the focus, especially with the massive feast adorned on it.
"You used a power to quickly prepare a feast? Isn't that a bit to wasteful for brother?" Beth put her hand on her chin in a curious position as she looks at her father.
"It would have been if it was a few days earlier. Now however, it is as easy as a waive of my hand!" A magnetic voice booms across the room as a dashing man with short spiked blonde hair instantly appears in front of Beth.
"Beth, why must you always act recklessly like that? What would I do if something happened to you because you were worried for me?" The dashing man smiles magnanimously at Beth as he puts his hand on her head.
Beths' face lights up as she sees her brother, she hugs him immediately starting to tear up "Sebastian! I feared the worst when I hear the news! I'm so happy you're okay!" Sebastian smiles at his sister.

He then looks towards Rodney, disregarding him as a servant. He turns his sights towards Alistair, however a strange expression forms on his face. He quickly hides it and goes up to Alistair,
"Boy, Welcome to the Brightstar household. I was informed of your would be position due to my sisters concerns and even though it would have been a lie upon a misunderstanding I would like to express my gratitude to you in the way of this feast!"
Alistair has been waiting by the side struggling with his hunger. He would have already gave in to his temptation if it had not been for the young man in front of him. When he walked into the dining room, he felt a sense of dread as if that half corpse had its mouth open ready to reap his little life.
It wasn't until the young man looked at him and finished his statement that the sense of dread disappeared without a trace. The hunger immediately surfaced and took over.
"I can see the starvation in your eyes, no need to stand on ceremony. Let us all feast!" He watches everyone begin eating as he pays close attention to Alistair.
Alistair walks over to table covered with various types of meat and exotic dishes. He picks up the leg of a bird that has been fried and bites ferociously into it. The moment the food touches his tongue, he immediately spits it back out.
Alistair tries to eat another dish, this time a stack of tender ribs. However, the same result occurs. Alistair understands that it's not that he doesn't like it. It's that the spiral in his heart and stomach that usually spin with a terrifying suction, immediately began rotating the opposite way and released a small gale with enough force to prevent the food from being swallowed.

Alistair panics as he understands that he can't eat this food. He begins to look for anything that he might be able to keep down. He comes across a dish that is giving a wonderful aroma and immediately reaches for it.
Without hesitation he puts the food into his mouth and it goes down without any problem and begins to soothe the spiral inside him, albeit slightly. He sees a pile of this meat and does not control himself.
The spectators in the room however make strange expressions as if they had just witnessed a horror movie. He tosses aside all of the properly cooked extravagant dishes and decides to go for the the raw monster meat that had been prepared for extras after the food was finished.
He eats at least three pounds of raw meat before letting out a satisfied,
"Yum!"
Beth and Rodney both let out a shocked gasp. The boy who they thought was mute just said "Yum!". Beth gets out of her chair at the dining table and walks to Alistair.
"Alistair, what did you just say?" She looks at him intensely with expectant eyes.
"Oh! Uh...yum?" Alistair looks back at Beth, not able to process what just happened.
When he ate the meat and the spiral became satisfied, Alistair went through a monumental evolution. His throat healed and his mouth became capable of intricate movement. Alistair gained the ability to talk!

When Plush comes to Shove
An: So the last synopsis wasn’t really all that good, it was just some mumbo jumbo with no actual point to it so I decided to make a new one that’s a bit more accurate. Leo Lush, just your average everyday (slightly chubby) schmuck, or at least he would be if he didn’t carry around a stuffed toy everywhere he went.I mean, he was a man who could read the atmosphere a bit so put it away in his bag whenever having a stuffed toy out would be rude but other than that he brought it with him all the time, it was a memento from his girlfriend who had died three years ago and keeping it close made him feel better. That’s also why his classmates gave him the nickname “Plush”, though that's neither here nor there. One day at the train station he’d lost his dearest stuffed toy, one of his classmates found it and lobbed it towards him, something that they’d already done many times before, but this time something went wrong and Leo found himself falling in front of the train due to the force of the throw. Now follow Leo as the spirit that developed in his stuffed toy and killed him forces his ghost into another world to possess a different stuffed toy. He doesn’t know much about the world or why he’s there but what he does know is that according to a magic book his girlfriend was also sent to this very world when she died in a plane accident three years ago. An: For those who want to know a bit more about what kind of story this will be: I want it to be a chill feel-good story and stay as far away from those despair-fest stories as possible (No offense to people who enjoy them, I’m just not one of you)Let me make something clear; I’m not writing this story with hope of it becoming really top tier among RRL (Though it did get above rank 500 once which I’m still very proud of even though it’s gone back down to ~850 at the time of writing this) I just want to write a story that I would enjoy reading, that’s why I’ll be mostly skipping over a lot of the parts that I skip when I read other stories, such as stats, the exact value of money and other such precise statistics that no one(as far as I’m aware) really cares about all that much. Just feels like a lot of effort for something superfluous.There’s a single exception and that’s one of the battles, it’s not a despair-fest or anything but it’s got a different feel than the rest of the story due to me being in a funky mood while I was writing it.
