OVERANALYZING NEURON FLIES. THE TAG LIMIT HAS STOPPED ME BUT IM GOING TO CONTINUE HERE THEN SINCE I STILL HAVE SOME THOUGHTS.
About the orange goop, which I'm convinced is probably dead(?) neuron flies, I think it would taste VERY strange. Definitely picks up some taste of metal/dust from the surface it lays on. Can't decide whether it should be extremely salty of unbearably dull. Leaning towards the second one. A very tasteless, sticky substance that covers up the entire inside of your mouth when being chewed. It takes ages to get it all down your throat and it leaves a faint taste of metal/blood behind. Yikes. Probably the reason why nothing else in the game eats it.
Another thing I thought of is that absorbing neuron fly nutrients would make spearmaster more energised and clear minded. Not really a taste, but I don't think thing fella CAN taste. Instead I propose this. Plus a slight teeny tiny electrical wave going through them every time they puncture neurones.
At the very end I would just like to say that although I have zero evidence for it and I will never get any evidence for it, I just can so clearly imagine nsh's neurons tasting fruity. No pun intended. I just think they taste like gummies. Still giving the same sour-like sensation on the tongue. And srs's would be spicy, no comment. Also very warm. Sliver's would taste like andruts pre collapse and like literal nothing post collapse. Nothing with a dash of whatever karma flowers may taste like.
Uhhh nothing else to add here if anyone decided to actually read all of that I wish upon you a lot of delicious neuron flies in the future. Although I don't think I made them seem tasty. Cause I don't really think they are. But hey. We're all neuron flies enjoyers here.
Personally I think they're staticky, gelatinous, and flavorless
Please reblog for sample size I saw this post, someone asked if the texture was egg, and now I'm really curious
#i so want them to be gelatinous but realistically#if you hit a neuron it makes a crunchy sound#which could but be electricity? but i don't entirely think so#the way it looks doesn't remind me of anything soft#it looks as if they were cracking#and when they are deactivated they turn black with a white center#so i propose - a very crunchy web-like surface#web strings being sort of like metled and reshaped sugar or thin ice texture wise#right under it a translucent barrier that would feel like uhh#for the lack of a better word#chewy thin skin#very soft#and only THEN inside would be a gelatinous substance protecting the center#which i think would feel like these corn stick snack thingys#but slightly dunked in water (still sort of crunchy though)#very sticky that's for sure#and if it comes to the taste i really think it would taste like differently depending on the history of the iterator owning them#you cant convince me moon's neurones taste good#her structure not only was suffering from severe chemical imbalance before the collapse#but then well. collapsed. they all probably taste like chemicals and salty shoreline water (which also seems contaminated in surv/monk/etc)#not to mention they probabky have dirt and sand particles on them#pebbles though...#idk if any of yall ever smelled an electical device that was clearly overheating#but that is the exact taste i imagine#additionally i think they would leave a specific sensation on the tongue#similar to what you can feel after eating something like sour candy or something mildly spicy#also since apparently iterators have some shrooms involved in their biology#i wouldn't be surprised if they gave of a mushroomy aftertaste if that makes any sense#i also alternatively really like the idea of them being filled with glowing powder#but gelatinous filling feels more canon since it seems that they turn into orange goop later
