Cupcakes, Friday 5/20, Period 2

Stark, standing in the front of the home ec room, was looking much better this week and not at all like he might collapse at any moment from sheer exhaustion.

"Welcome back. I hope everyone is rested today. Feeling better than last time. Unless you weren’t sleepless last week. Then…I hope you're still fine?" He hadn't really thought that 'unless' through.

"We can actually bake today, I think. Without worrying we might burn the school down or have some sort of terrible baking accident."

"I thought we could try colors as a theme this time. Something different. Yellow, to start," he said, gesturing toward the box on the counter in front of him. "I've brought some yellow ingredients to make yellow cupcakes or at least cupcakes with yellow."

He opened the box then and started removing items one by one. "Lemons. Bananas. Pineapple. Something called yuzu. And…canned corn? I didn't bring that. Why would that be here? I don't want corn."

Summer was getting a suspicious look right about now if she was in the room even though this was entirely a strange island occurrence and nothing to do with her at all.

"There are recipes, if you like, and some already finished yellow cake cupcakes if you'd like to eat one or just make frosting for those."

Summer was definitely in the room and Stark was very correct to give her that look the moment canned corn entered the picture.

Her own look was anything but horrified. But to some, it might be horrifying.
somethingwithturquoise: (good idea hatching)

Summer shrugged, but that grin wasn't going anywhere.

"I guess you'll have to wait and see."

Always exactly what someone wanted to hear in this situation, right?

But she hoped Stark would still be pleasantly surprised.

"I definitely did not," Summer promised, hand to her heart for added sincerity. "The cupcake odds were clearly in my favor, though."
