You know, I think I much rather prefer the days where my apartment gets invaded by a multitude of tiny animals.

[the video feed then gets angled down to get a shot of a couple of plates with neatly organized lemon squares. around them? a mess of lemons, powdered sugar, and other baking necessities-- enough of a giveaway that the kitchen has been in use for a while.]

... At least those situations have never ended up with this much of a mess before, surprisingly enough. Or required as much research.

[the feed focuses back on him, just quick enough to catch a shrug.] I probably shouldn't try to eat them all, if anyone would like some.



((ooc: Kogarasumaru base and Kaito&Gazelle apartment-- you each get a full tray left at your door with this note attached to them.))

... I dunno, you might have to grow a couple extra eyeballs for that.

[superbeast]

Can't I get a free pass just this once?

[errandry]

Eeeeh... guess the lemon squares oughta count for some points.

[superbeast]

--The bigger the dessert, the more points I'd earn?

[errandry]

—what, are you thinking about baking the ultimate monster of lemon squares or something?

[superbeast]

I was thinking more of a giant cake in general, but I suppose your way's good too.

[errandry]

Those two sound pretty close!

[superbeast]

It isn't, not when I was picturing something in the style of a wedding cake.

[errandry]

Wait, you wanna do a wedding cake now?

[superbeast]

The style of one! You know, the tiers?

[superbeast]

Six feet tall with no soft wedding colors in sight.

[errandry]

You know a lot about cakes, huh. What if all the lemons disappear at midnight, though?

[superbeast]

I could probably improvise for the rest. I think I bought some lemon pepper the other day.

[errandry]

... yeeeah, I dunno if anybody'd eat that!

[superbeast]

You wouldn't be even a little bit curious?

[errandry]

Would you eat a cake with pepper and sugar?

[superbeast]

Under the right circumstance, sure.

[errandry]

[ ... ]

You sure you got the recipe right?

[superbeast]

Why don't you try them and find out?

[errandry]

[ ...................... ]

I'm just gonna ask one question. This isn't some kinda guinea pig experiment, is it?

[superbeast]

That kind of thing requires signed consent. I'm a cop, you know.

[errandry]

You're off duty right now.

[superbeast]

... So just because I'm off-duty you think I'll try to poison you?

[superbeast]

--Ah, my bad. I meant to say 'try to feed you strange things'.

[errandry]

SUDDENLY SUSPICION LEVELS JUST DOUBLED.
