"Cera’s become preoccupied with the anorexic’s ideal—the condemned man’s last meal. Hearty, and never digested. She’s wondered why it exists as a tradition. In films they bring in a plastic tray heaped with scran like Grandma used to serve. It’s like an extra kick in the face because it’s so pointless. Feeding a person before you kill them seems a waste, and she feels the people of Thanet would resent the cost to the taxpayer if hanging was brought back ."
