Scroll 6: The Cake is NOT a Lie [visual or action forward-date day after GGG]

[needsteaplz]

[The scroll shows the commune kitchen, at least what looks like it since there's piles of cookies and a cake or two partially blocking the view. Saori pops her head in and wipes the sweat off her brow. And yes, she's got some flour on her cheek too.]

So....I might have gone a little overboard with my baking therapy. I got tons of cookies, cakes and some other baked goods here up for grabs. I think I still have enough ingredients to do some requests but you might want to check here first. Oh and I thought of these!

[She pulls up several cookie shots. Then the oven pings.]

What do you think? You can have your cookies and milk at the same time! So yeah, come on down to the commune's kitchen. Now if you excuse me, I got some chocolate lava cakes to get out of the oven.

"Weird? Hm..." She has to stop for a second to think. "Well, now that you mention it, I have. Like I could've sworn some of us have changed. And not in a good way. More like the sudden bad ones. I could've sworn some cutie marks were changed too."

Thankfully, hers has not changed. All that baking was just a in-the-moment kind of phase.

Mako lets out a great sigh of relief.

"Oh thank goodness, I'm not going crazy."

[needsteaplz]

"We should be lucky it's not affecting everyone or else there would be no end to it. Though I have to wonder what triggered it," she sighs. Cutie Marks after all can't just change overnight...unless there was some strong magic shenanigans about.

"...probably something at the Gala. There was a big commotion at one point, but I missed a lot of the details."

[needsteaplz]

"Same here. I didn't stay for the entire time," Saori starts pacing around as she tries to think.

"Looks like an investigation is an order. Good. I could use a break from baking, to be honest."

[etranger]

Mako considers that as she finishes the brownie.

"...If you're going to be doing the Ace Detective routine, I'm fine with being the muscle."

[needsteaplz]

Saori can't help but laugh a bit.

"I can work both ways but I could always use an extra hand, er, hoof."

[etranger]

"Okay! I'll just take one of these for the road and I'm set."

She indicates the cookie shots as she says this.

[needsteaplz]

"Sure thing. I'm sure everyone else will eventually eat through all of this. Oh, I better get these washed before we start too."

Now that the last of the dishes and pans are cool enough, she gets them washed and she's ready as well.

[etranger]

Mako finishes off her cookie shot and considers the watch on her pastern. With a shake of her head, she dismisses whatever idea she was considering and reaches up to tug the brim of her cap a little lower over her eyes.

"Okay, all set!"
