[No.

No, he doesn't want to leave the house ever again if he can help it. He doesn't want to smile and laugh as though everything was normal... But he had to, if he were to make progress towards his future, he would have to.

And so his tone is every bit as warm as ever when he replies.]

That sounds great, Mr. Hero.

Great. Come by my house whenever you're free. I'll probably be baking all day.

We'll get this organization off the ground in no-time! This is the first step towards a brighter future! I just know it!

[He sounds so optimistic, how is that possible after all they've just seen?]

Alright, I'll be there in the afternoon.

[And he appears when he said he would, looking slightly wan and subdued.]

Mr. Hero?

[By then he had already started baking and so Cain would see him with an apron on and flour smeared on his cheeks and hands.]

Hey! There you are.

[He claps his hands together which does nothing but stir up a big white cloud in the air.]

You ready to start?

[He manages to give America a warm smile, tucking his hair behind his ears and nodding in determination.]

Ready! Where shall we begin?

First, you'll need this!

[Giving America a thumbs up, he puts the apron on obediently.]

...Have you done this before?

[He looks kind of... messy.]

Of course! Nothing to it!

[leads him to the kitchen which has all these bowls out, and open sacks of ingredients, and a big milk spill right by the fridge. . .]

Okey! Do you want to mix up the batter or the dry ingredients?

Maybe I should clean up a bit first, okay? We don't want contaminated food.

[He looks about for a cloth and starts clearing up the milk first. Alas, this is just par for the course for cooking in his house too.]

Those smell absolutely delicious.

They'll be even better after they're decorated! That's the fun part after all.

You'll decorate some, won't you?

Decorate them with what?

[He sounds genuinely bemused. He's never been asked to decorate a cupcake before.]

Cream of course! And candies and marshmallows and fruits and all sorts of nice stuff!

Took me awhile to find them, but it's worth it. Can't have naked cupcakes, right! Then they'd just be muffins.
