What if y/n from have you eaten? Au had eating disorders?

oou! good question!

yes! that is definitely a scenario i would like to explore in the fic when i get to it. also why i want to write the fic with multiple different Y/Ns so we can explore different experiences and relationships with food

there is a "main Y/N" who is a glutton who likes to try anything and everything. i haven't done the research for it so i can't say whether or not they have an eating disorder, but they DO have an unhealthy relationship with food as a result of being shamed for their appetite. so that, coupled with their job that emphasizes appearances and first impressions, they eat smaller meals, seemingly healthier meals, safe meals. but when they're alone at the restaurant with the DCA boys, without having to worry about who sees them or how much they eat, they're able to enjoy their food openly and honour their body's cravings.

#ask the crab #Have You Eaten? AU #i'll add some ideas for the Y/Ns here in the tags because nothing is final yet #a single parent Y/N with a picky son or daughter #an international student Y/N who is feeling homesick and comes to the restaurant to eat food they miss from home #maybe the same student Y/N but a Y/N who forgets to eat or actively skips meals so they don't spend too much money #a Y/N that has tried many diets and workouts and still feels insecure about how they look #a Y/N that has developed health problems and can't eat a lot of the foods they once loved #a Y/N that wants to learn to cook but has always subconsciously hated their own cooking #food is just such an interesting vehicle for storytelling #food is tied to so many memories #nostalgia and trauma #it's fuel for our bodies but also a bridge for social interactions #my biggest worry with this au is that i can only write from my limited understanding of food #there's so many cuisines i haven't tried yet and am unfamiliar with #hence why i played it safe by making the restaurant a cha chaan teng a restaurant and cuisine that i am very familiar with
