[It appears to be the Return of the Girl from Oz, because here she is, and what's that she's got with her? Oh. Oh. It's a shitload of cupcakes. Well. Heavens. Maybe you should go get one before she runs out

It's got those little edible ball-bearing things! They for anyone?

[galeforcehero]

Sure! Here, let's get you a napkin...

[Since she is polite like that, she picks up a cupcake with a napkin and carefully passes it to Rose]

I'm trying a new frosting recipe. Tell me what you think!

[shewalks_away]

Thanks.

[takes a bite, slowly, and then another bite, more eagerly]

Oh that, that is gorgeous! Where'd you learn to make them like that.

[galeforcehero]

[BEAMING. You know, the whole Plane thing is doing wonders for her self-esteem.]

It's a family recipe. My Aunt Em knows recipes older than I am, and that's saying something. Y'know, I'm glad so many people 'round here like my baking! Makes a girl feel appreciated, knowing she's got somebody to cook for.

[Reinette is always one to appreciate the beauty in a well-made confectionery]

How lovely.

[galeforcehero]

Thank you very much. I made them myself. Would you like one?

[Let it never be said that Dorothy is anything but gracious, even to people she is predisposed not to like all that much.]

[ambitious_woman]

I would, thank you.

[really Dorothy, what is your problem]

[galeforcehero]

[She a hater. She hatin. But she gathers a happy-looking cupcake and a napkin and proffers them to Reinette]

Enjoy!

{D: Those sound so yummy, for the record. Allen agrees, and is always attracted to food, so here he is!}

Are those cupcakes?

[galeforcehero]

'Course they are! What'd you think, they were plastic? Here, try one, prove it to yourself.

[and she hands him a napkin and a cupcake, because she is Civilized like that.]

[akumas_curse]

{Laughs}

No, not really that, but I've never seen any quite that...decorated.

{Allen takes it with a pleasant smile, taking a bite}

It's delicious! It tastes as good as it looks, definitely.

[galeforcehero]

Well, thank you very much. Though I'm surprised you haven't seen any like these! It's an old family recipe.

[she leans in, as if imparting a GREAT SECRET] The trick is to use real, freshly-squeezed lemon juice. Doesn't work with the fake stuff.

[galeforcehero]

[Oh, you. She gives him an indulgent smile, and a cupcake.]

It wasn't intentional! Wouldja rather I didn't put my best foot forward, so to speak, where my cooking's concerned?

[galeforcehero]

Uh huh. Well, it'd certainly explain a few things about you people, that's for sure.

[She means that in an affectionate way, probably.]

[miseardae]

[amused grin] Is there no end to your talents?

[galeforcehero]

[She grins back, but pretends to be absorbed in arranging her cupcakes.]

You watch out, now. Flattery'll get you nowhere.

[miseardae]

[faint pout as he comes closer] Oh, but I like flattery. It can get you the prettiest smiles.

[galeforcehero]

But a smile's not really what you want from me, is it?

[she turns back to her table and pretends that wasn't rather insinuating something.]

Not when there's cupcakes to be had. You do like cupcakes, don't you? They're lemon, if you're interested.
