Minako Arisato October 9th near Apprassage

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]

[Oh, she wasn't expecting him to get so into it.

So she's just kind of. Standing there holding his cupcake on a tray, blinking at his intensity for a minute.]




I found yours, by the way.

[ As if intensely pinged by food, Daisuke's head perks up, tearing his attention away from organizing the cupcakes. He's almost done, but Minako's call takes priority! ]

--Ah, um...

[ He's embarrassed because he's now self aware of what he's been doing. Oops. ]

Thank you...

[complementing]

You're welcome! And thank you for helping me, it makes it so much easier to give everyone their cupcakes this way.

[Minako loves being organized and prepared?? She gives him a little grin.]

Well, go on, take a bite and tell me what you think!

[sketchythief]

[ He takes the cupcake and looks down at it. It looks... so good... It looks well made too, so he wonders if it would be a shame to eat it. But cupcakes are baked and meant to be eaten, so he takes a small bite out of it.

...

After swallowing: ]

I think it's the best cupcake I've ever had...

[ Single Tear™ ]

[complementing]

[She laughs and gives him a bright smile.]

Thanks! I'm glad you like it. I wish I could give you another one, honestly. You organized all these cupcakes really well...

[sketchythief]

[ A part of him wants to say yes, but a part of him doesn't want to trouble Minako for an extra cupcake. He's not sure if this is even legal...?! ]

It's the least I could do! Since you made all those cupcakes for everyone... you're a really hard worker.

[complementing]

[It's totally legal! Probably.]

Haha, so I'm told! I don't normally go through this much effort for a competition, though. Next time I'll have to offer something different for a bribe.

[sketchythief]

But if you offer something else next time, wouldn't that have to be better than cupcakes? It's that "prizes have to be better than the last" to give... incentive? Is that the right word for it?

[complementing]

[A deep sigh.]

Yeah, it's true, but it would seriously drain my wallet if I offered something better than cupcakes next time...

[sketchythief]

What about something that isn't like... material? But then you'd have a bunch of favors.

[ He quietly munches on his cupcake while thinking. ]

... Maybe it's a bad idea after all.

[complementing]

Hehe, I'll come up with something! As long as we don't have these competitions every month I should be able to handle making cupcakes for people like I did this time.

[sketchythief]

That means you have to be strong to resist the urges if someone suggests another competition to you, right?

[ He gives a small awkward laugh. ]

But thanks for the cupcake! It's really delicious... I'll come back here if I want to eat cupcakes again.

[complementing]

[She gives him a little grin and waves.]

You're welcome, and please do! Don't go down the street to the French bakery for them~
