Hello Retrospec! Last week on Joanne’s network post, me and my ReVA coworker Terra Mason challenged each other to see who could get the most virtual candies. We finally had the time to sit down and count, and here are the results! The winner, by one single treat... ...is Terra, with 37 virtual candies! Congratulations, Terra! (✩´꒳`✩)ﾉ For everyone who supported me, your cupcakes will be ready for pick up during my 1-6pm shift today, so stop by the Confectionary for them anytime between then! Thanks for reading!

[ooc: if anyone wants to log out actually picking up their cupcake, feel free to leave an action thread for me in here]

It's an apple rose tart.

[ and while his face looks imposing, his voice is soft, sweet and higher pitched than what anyone would expect. Tarr looked like he should have a growling voice with that deadly stare and those shoulders, but no. it also looked like he was a little shy the way he kind of ducks his head at the praise. ]

I hope you like it.

[Wow what the heck, Tarr is so cute??? Minako beams at him and closes the box neatly.]

I know I will. Thank you so much! Oh, but wait one sec, okay?

[She turns back to her customer to take care of them, but once that's all finished, she pops out from behind the counter holding a cupcake in her hand.]

I had a hard time thinking of a cupcake that a fellow baker would like...something that's not a flavor you've tried a billion times already, you know? So here! Mandarin orange!

[ she's smiling and happy, and he just ducks his head a little more, his soft getting even softer so the mumbled 'You're welcome' was lost somewhere between his mouth and the air. Tarr kinda blinks and steps back at the appearance of the cupcake too, though he takes it and gives it a sniff. ]

Really? [ apple tarts are common, though he likes to believe that the way he makes his - not only was the slices made o look like a blooming flower, he adds in cinnamon and brown sugar to make it into a gooey caramelized mess - was different enough. but he didn't have a lot of call to make anything with madarin oranges. maybe he needed to change that.

he wasn't even going to wait. after the first sniff, he is taking a bite. his expression also lights up at the taste. ] It is good!

Really? I'm so glad, I didn't want to disappoint you. [Minako grins and claps her hands together, completely pleased with herself.] The cake is made with a ton of orange zest and the buttercream is actually made from mandarin orange tea!

[ and she was going to see just how he got the nickname of hamster as his cheeks puff out as he eats. ]

I can taste it. It's really good.

[ look, he only seems scary but he really is a soft fluff this is why David and him are friends.]

[She and Tarr are kindred spirits...she doesn't do the hamster thing unless she's in close company, though. Minako is absolutely taken with him, either way.]

I'll have to send you the recipe, then! Maybe you could use adapt it for your fairy cakes.

[lesinset]

[ He can't help the hamster thing since his cheeks are actually kind of puffy though people don't really notice it at first because of his dead eye glare. ]

You should. I can always give you one of mine in exchange.

[complementing]

Yes, please!

[She even holds out her hands and wiggles her fingers at him, but it's entirely playful.]

I will happily try any recipe you want to send me~
