We've always been interested in this subject.
And know we are even more interested because of the fact that we're now involved in regular diners with some devils and the fact I am so hungry i can't even thing about something else.

What exactly cause this, why and how?
Well, as for something we know, this hunger is directly connected to Mr Eaten, as he himself can just came to you under Mr Sacks' cover and give his lights and hearts to you, but just w h y he spreads the hunger when he himself was, you know, EATEN ALIVE. AND HE IS STILL ALIVE. Or kinda alive
And what about other sources, like diner with devils, or visiting Mr Hearts shop and, for the wierdest, dreams about drowning and worse.
We just don't get it.
Well, we kinda understand... but, for the most part, we not. It's such a wierd subject for us.
And... Well, we just don't wanna outlive experience of the hunger just for this, we don't appreciate seeking the name. It's just such a horrible, horrible way to end your life and to betray everyone, gosh.
But as Seeker of Truth, I want to understand. I really do. But not this way.
At least we wanna know another way to learn about this whole subject of peckishness.

Gosh, excuse us if this all was kinda messy or something, I am just so damn h u n g r y, we even can't think straight.

They say that Mr. Apples traded as Mr. Potatoes once. Whoever tasted of his Hesperidian Fries never hungered again.

The devouring of Mr Eaten kinda reminds me of that tale where Prometheus gets his liver pecked out by an eagle every night. Many times he has been consumed, and still some part of him lives. I think the people who ate him gained some significant power too (at a cost, obviously, but still). Maybe some part of our subconscious wants in on that. Though you'd think if that were actually the reason for our hunger Seekers would eventually try to capture Mr Wines for lunch.

Actually it's a really interesting idea. Mr Wines would be delicious because of his, well, wines.

Would you say that one might eat its liver with some fava beans and a nice chianti?

I do wish we could chat longer, but I'm having an old friend for dinner.

In Fallen London, you sometimes get it when eating meat, usually offal (organs). No one seems to get Unaccountably Peckish from eating fruit and vegetables.



On the contrary, when you are teaching a student of clay how to go shopping, you can get UP from a meal of nothing but potatoes. Well, dirt and potatoes.

Is it normal that now Eaten and all seeking stuff reminds me of JESSUS D--NABLE CHRIST?

Mr Spices would probably taste pretty good to people who like honey, too. Not to mention Mr Eaten doesn't like either of them because his domain was originally dreams, and the two of them stole it from him. The idea of giving the two of them a taste of what he's had to endure could appeal to him, though presumably he doesn't encourage his followers to go for it because if they succeeded the rest of the Masters would kill almost everybody and move onto the next city, forcing Mr Eaten to start all over again. He doesn't have much time left.

There are cases where you get peckish that is clearly not related to [spoiler]people, [/spoiler] so its a bit more complicated than that.
