#WHO TURNED POTEMKIN INTO PASTA

[tragicallycrispygirl]

Apparently there was once a Guilty Gear XRD collab and the menu looks scrumptious like look at this stuff

Some of these are really fun, like the Potemkin Pasta with little hands or the Kaltes Gestöber (which translates to "Cold Flurry") ice cream, or Ky's dainty little tea and cookie set

The thing that's fucking killing me about this menu is that the coffee is Eddie coffee. Not Eddie*'s* coffee, Eddie coffee.

It conjures to mind the image of Zato-1 fucking around in Venoms bakery and serving someone a cup of Eddie, or somehow putting Eddie in an espresso machine
