Falling Lava by robbie tuff's underswap

Behold, human!
Cast your eyes upon this spaghetti, carefully positioned on this plate, atop of this table, with surgical precision!

Now, you are presented with two options:

First: you walk away, like a coward, afraid of great culinary power.

Second: you indulge into my masterpiece . . . And A-ha!
That is where my strategy unfolds.

For the moment you take a single bite, you will be so devastated by my superior cooking, that you wouldn't realise you've halted all the progress.

Ah, yes.
Decisions, decisions . . .
