Cupcake Skirmishes, Period 3, Friday 6/18
As always, cupcake class was held in the Home Ec room. Where else would you bake?
“Today,” Stark said from his usual spot at the front of the room, “I hope everyone likes chocolate.” If you didn’t like chocolate, Stark didn’t want to hear about it. “Because I have a lot of chocolate.” He stopped, considering the box in front of him. “At least I think I do? It was chocolate the last time I looked but you never know here. Good, yes, still chocolate.”
“I have dark chocolate, milk chocolate, white chocolate, and ruby chocolate,” Stark continued, holding examples up each type in turn. “I didn’t know there was that fourth type, before. It’s new. It tastes different. There’s enough here if you want to try some first.” There was enough of every type of chocolate for eating. Stark wasn’t a monster.
“I have recipes for each type. You could try changing the frostings around.” Mix it up a little, kids! It might be fun. And delicious.
Ruby chocolate cupcakes
White chocolate cupcakes
Milk chocolate cupcakes
Dark chocolate cupcakes
“I can help, if you like.” Or you can just eat chocolate, honestly. It’s not like Stark would stop anyone from doing that.

Re: Bake some cupcakes!
"If you need to be carried I'll carry you."
Unless that was too much like cuddling!
Re: Bake some cupcakes!
Faye sure couldn't, considering she was giving him a kind of dorky look before she caught herself. "Would you really?"
She could hold her liquor pretty okay and it probably wouldn't actually be necessary, but it made her feel all squishy in a way she was absolutely not going to engage with that he'd just agreed to that.

"Good. I won't leave you, either," Faye replied, and much as her pancakes had probably enjoyed being told that she would look out for Stark a couple weeks back, now her chocolate was probably really enjoying that admission, as well.
At least, not this time. Not at this particular party.
Re: Bake some cupcakes!
Stark smiled a little and reached for another piece of chocolate. "Good. Then neither of us gets left behind in any bars. Or anywhere else Summer might be taking us." Because who knew, really?
