"Yup. Where I come from, Great Fairies aren't goddesses." Is Link sassing Vader? It's hard to tell. He's not wearing a mask, but his general lack of expressiveness makes him hard to read.

As for what Link was eating, well, that was pretty much whatever took his fancy. Which was most things. The only thing stopping him from eating everything on the table was the fact that his stomach was, unfortunately, not big enough to hold it all.

(The Slate, however, had no such limitations - hence why so many things seem to make their way into the device...)
