The more time Claire spends with Toph in their own personal camp just outside the farm, the more she wanders into the farm itself from time to time. She diesn't even minid if she meets a Gabriel any more: they don't look exactly like Sylar, after all, and Toph says they're sincere

"That," Steph says, upon wandering into the kitchen and finding CUPCAKES, "is incredible. Wow! Can I try one?"

[lilmsmiraclegro]

The smell of baking cakes is a little ruined by the hint of burning flesh as Claire decides she can't be bothered to find a pair of oven gloves, but she smiles and nods to a set of iced cakes on the kitchen table.

"Those should be cool enough to eat."

[i_spoiled_it]

Ew.

But not ew enough to make the cupcakes not look delicious.

Steph beams. "I love the colours."

"It's supposed to be water-ish," Claire explains. "I figure if I make enough Sokka'll smell them and come back quicker.

"And maybe he'll start wearing clothes other than the ones he arrived in."

[downsidedarling]

"Oooh, cupcakes."

Perky Anna is perky! Also, visiting.

"What's the occasion?"

Introductions are totally for the weak, yo. And much less important than delicious baked goods.

[lilmsmiraclegro]

"Me being bored?"

Claire grins and jerks her head towards the first batch. "Those are cool enough to eat, I think."

[downsidedarling]

"Awesome."

And hey, if they aren't, not like Dreamer'd care.

"Get bored more often. And try to time it so I'm visiting the farm when you do."

Oh, assumptions. Well, to be fair, who would make cupcakes and not live here?

...

Besides, very possibly, Anna herself.

PS: Om nom nom.

"I'll try," Claire says, patiently.

"But I don't know how long I'm staying. Just until my boyfriend gets back."

Bridgette is stealthy like a ninja - canon says so. She managed to sneak through her house when Mommy and Daddy were inside and hide a dog in her closet. She has mad skills!

There is one less cupcake from one of Claire's trays. Bridge quickly sneaks into the living room to enjoy her dessert.

It's possible Claire might catch her as she's leaving. It's possible Claire might catch her when she comes back for seconds.

[lilmsmiraclegro]

It's possible that when she returns for seconds, there's a girl standing with her arms crossed and a look that screaming disapproving older sister a mile off.

Yeah, Bridgette. Explain yourself.

[wearsredhelmet]

There is much innocent beaming to be done.

"Hello! Are you baking cupcakes?"

Bridgette wouldn't know, because she just walked in!

[lilmsmiraclegro]

"Well, I was," Claire says. "Until someone started stealing them."

She doesn't think she wants to anymore.

Or she's faking it for the lulz. One of those.
