Mmmmmm, chocolates

[mooging]

Peeeeoples, I am making Christmas presents for my family and I have bought a box of Quality Street and a box of Roses to disperse amongst the hand-made items, and I need your opinions on the chocolates contained in these boxes, so, er, poll time![Poll #1089770]

Your Heroes chocolate theories are brilliant. What about Claire? What would she be? And Mr. Bennett? I think maybe Claire would be one of those chippy orange things you can get, you know, where it's kind of praline-y but with orange crystal things, because, like, she's trying to be like everyone else (praline) but she's just different (being orange). Can't think of Mr. Bennett though. Any ideas?

I like the dark chocolate mint creme for Nathan very much. Would Peter then be a milk chocolate mint creme (you know, like the milk and dark After Eights, where dark is just better) or would he be just dark chocolate - made of the same stuff but lacking the essential oomph-factor?

....obviously I have put as little thought into this as you. We are both validated.

Claire would have to be a bit like Nathan so maybe one of those milk chocolates with mint chips in them? Ooh or one of those Bendick's mint chocolates that are white and milk chocolate? I see Claire as a white chocolate type of girl for some reason.

made of the same stuff but lacking the essential oomph-factor?
I believe I share your thoughts on Peter, lol. Yes, trying to be as good as his older brother but somehow not quite living up to it. He would have a fancier wrapper too I'd imagine, whereas Nathan's would be more understated and elegant.

I have no idea what Mr Bennett would be. If the Heroes chocolates were in a box where they were unwrapped and you had to match them up with picutres of the chocolate itself then he'd be the chocolate that doesn't match any of the pictures and even though the chocolate itself looks perfectly innocent you don't quite trust it and nobody will touch it.

I am always the one to eat the weird non-identifiable chocolates! I...don't quite know what that means in terms of me + Bennet, but never mind.

Yes, I believe Claire would suit white chocolate. Your Benedicks idea seems good. Oooh, I just thought, for D.L., would he be, like, a soft caramel? Because that gets everywhere when you bite into it, even into fingernails of fingers that didn't even touch the chocolate, so that kind of equals phasing through stuff? Or am I just a really un-neat (shut up, 'messy' is not the word I want at all) chocolate eater?

Who have we got left? Oooh, Ted, could he maybe be a strawberry creme? They're red (well, pink, but shh) and squidgy, and idk, maybe nuclear power translates to squidgy in chocolate form.

I REALLY WANT NATHAN A NATHAN AND A PETER CHOCOLATE NOW.
