[[Aaron's trying his hand at baking. He's not that great at it.

Still, he wants to try and is not going to let a little thing like lack of skill stop him.

The kitchen is a bit of a mess.]]

[Phone | Unfiltered]Hey, it's Aaron

[free cake, you say? WELL.]

Mr. Aaron! Are you trying your hand at baking?

Re: [phone]

[pants_yourmove]

Trying, that's the part that matters, right?

I figured I should learn eventually.

[custodismundi]

I wouldn't mind being your guinea pig, if you needed a taste tester...

...It's just one of my more selfless qualities, you see!

[pants_yourmove]

Sure, if you want to come on by I'll have a sli-...

I'll have a piece waiting.

[[Since it won't look much like a slice of cake.]]

[custodismundi]

[haha flkjsdf aaron.]

I'll be right there! Just you wait! Don't give my piece away before I get there--!

[pants_yourmove]

I won't give it... hello?

[[Staring at the phone.

Shrugs and waits for him to arrive. Putting a piece aside.]]

sorry for the slow!! ;;;;

[custodismundi]

[hey, Aaron, my boy -- you're getting a knock at your front door not all too long after. he made good time! ...the promise of free cake is a siren's call, alright.]

no prob bob

[pants_yourmove]

[[Aaron answers the door, smiling.]]

Thanks for coming by... I hope you're not wasting your time. I have a few pieces ready in the kitchen.

They... might not look pretty.

[[They were broken up a bit and odd shaped lumps as getting pieces out of the pan was more difficult than he expected.]]

s-so kind...

[custodismundi]

[Abel's giving him a bright thumb's up!]

Don't be so hard on yourself! I bet they'll be delicious, just you wait and see.

All the kidness

[pants_yourmove]

Thanks, let me know what you think.

[[It's not... well it's not good.]]

[custodismundi]

[he'll diligently walk through to the kitchen, giving it a cursory sniff... before humming an assent, forking a bite.]

--Ah.

[well um. it's... interesting...?]

[pants_yourmove]

[[It's not hazardous to ones health at least.]]

Ah?

[custodismundi]

[chew... chew. ...chew.

swallow.]

...Ah, indeed. Let's see...

I think... maybe you added a little too much of... something. Maybe.

[pants_yourmove]

I think so too...

... do you know much about baking?

[custodismundi]

I'm afraid baking isn't my forte, but... eating baked goods on the other hand-- I'm exceptionally good at that!

[pants_yourmove]

Well, that is good.

I guess I'll let you know if I improve it?
