fandomhigh | In the Cupcake of Good and Evil, Tuesday 2nd Period [1/9]

"Hiiiii, everyone!" said Summer, getting class started out with a pleased, eager, and terribly excited grin, because in front of a cooking classroom about to unleash uncertain horrors on unsuspecting (well, no, everyone probably expected it now) students had clearly developed into one of her happy places. "And welcome to In the Cupcake of Good and Evil, a cupcake baking class where we will introduce you to some interesting concepts in cupcake baking and you have the power to decide whether you are going to use that knowledge for good," she gestured toward Stark, "or evil," gesturing to herself.

“She isn’t really evil,” Stark said. “But her food is often evil. Or at least horrifying.” He didn’t sound horrified at all. He sounded very fond.

"Today however," Summer continued, "in the grand tradition of the first week, we're going to be doing introductions, especially since I do see an unfamiliar name on the roster."

You poor, poor soul, who probably had no idea what you were getting yourself into. Stark was sorry for what you were about to experience. He thought Summer probably wasn't at all.

"But....we're doing it cupcake style! Your mission, should you choose to accept it, which you should, because otherwise, you're kind of missing the point, is to make a cupcake that you feel represents you in some way, shape, or form. For example, Stark? You made…."

“Mine,” Stark said, holding up his cupcake with both hands, “is yellow cake with chocolate frosting. That's my favorite sort of cupcake.” He then pulled half of the cake away to reveal the inside of the cupcake. “But it's not just plain yellow cake. It's full of more chocolate, see?” And yes, he had put some sparkly gold star sprinkles in there as well because he thought it was amusing. “And Summer, you…?”

"And I put a shrimp in mine," Summer announced proudly, gesturing toward, yes, a very pink cupcake, with sparkly sprinkles, and a big old pink shrimp stuck right in the very center of it, which she looked at with a great deal of fondness, "because Stark asked me not to."

Which might not seem like much of an introduction, but that really was a good amount of what you needed to know about Summer.

“Of course you did,” Stark said with a shake of his head. “Of course.”

"Now," said Summer, "if you need help with actually baking the cupcake, just let me or Stark know and we'll help you through the process; if you're still feeling a little intimidating baking on Day One, though, we do have some default chocolate, strawberry, and vanilla base-cakes that, like, you can just decorate to suit who you are as a cupcake. And, when time is up, we'll all take turns introducing ourselves and sharing our cupcakes!"

Good or evil!

Take some time to brainstorm and gather your ingredients and get to work on your self-defining cupcakes!

And what delicious delights or nauseating nightmares have you created to reflect yourself in the form of miniature cakey goodness?

Ask “why shrimp?” Or if Summer is really evil or if Stark is really good or you could just say hi.

Graham Cracker, almost too good to exist

Stark would argue that he wasn't all that good but his cupcakes were.

But he'd also be happy just to chat.

Summer will literally pay someone fifty bucks if they actually ate her sparkly pink shrimp cupcake.

Errm. Not dirty.

She was already getting that for free.

~~I am so sorry everyone.~~

Lydia Bennet, wicked according to some

She was supposed to bake? She was supposed to bake? And in one of these modern stoves she'd barely figured out how to make tea on? "Okay, Lydia," she muttered to herself as she surveyed the ingredients on offer, "get it together. If you can make a love potion, you can do this."

Granted, the love potion had backfired, but that hadn't been her fault!

Vi, from a morally grey canon

~~I don't think you're sorry at all!~~

"You're terrible," Stark told her in a tone of extreme fondness. "I'll have to remember not so say anything about food until this class is finished."

Anakin Skywalker. Eh.

Anakin was not a natural baker. Throughout high school he and Rory had never once made something correctly in the dorm kitchens and they'd kind of...stopped trying after becoming adults.

So Anakin was making a mug cake because those 1) were pretty easy and 2) almost never set a house on fire and so that was what he'd learned.

His was going to be dark chocolate.

Vi's cupcake, which she was baking herself, was also looking to be very pink.

But with a marked lack of shrimp.

Hannibal Lecter. If you have to ask...

Hannibal took his time. And then he took meat. Because everything needed meat in it.

Including cupcakes.

Hannibal smiled. "I have made maple bacon cupcakes with bacon buttercream frosting. They pretend to be healthy by not using refined white sugar or wheat, but they use quite a bit of bacon fat, so I doubt they're actually good for you."

There was a metaphor in that, yes.

Guillermo de la Cruz, good, despite best efforts to the contrary

Guillermo was in his element as he started to make his cupcakes and decided to make his both chocolate and strawberry.
