“There's a holiday tomorrow,” Stark said. “With chocolates and hearts and flowers. I thought about chocolate but then I worried what my co-teacher might do to that chocolate. I'm still worried.”

Just look at all that worry on Stark's face. Really.

To that, Summer could only scoff. "Pffft," she said. "Like I'm going to stick with anything as pedestrian as just chocolate today. I mean, you could do chocolate, it's going to fit into our focus of the day, but you could also do plenty of other things. Because a trend in cupcakes, cakes, and desserts in general these days is definitely giving a little extra surprise with those cupcakes by including a filling."

Sounded pretty safe so far, right? Only if you didn’t know Summer! Stark knew Summer very well and was eyeing her warily.

“I’ve made a strawberry champagne filling for strawberry champagne cupcakes,” he said, gesturing proudly in the direction of his cupcakes once he stopped watching Summer. “They seemed…seasonally appropriate?” That they were also likely to be something his co-teacher would enjoy was an even bigger reason he’d gone that route but surely everyone knew that already.

"And I made…." Summer started, tilted her head as she considered how to best describe what she made. "....well, I'll just let them [NSFL link omg] speak for themselves."

Happy Valentine's Day, everyone!

"So as you can see," Summer continued along brightly as if she hadn't just ruined everyone's whole hour, day, possibly week or month, "there's a lot of different directions you can go with a filled cupcake. Let's see what direction you decide to take!"

Stark just sighed and rubbed at his eye as if trying to erase the memory of what he’d just seen.

Impressed was definitely part of what Stark was feeling.

"You should try one," he said. "I think you'll like it."

He was almost completely sure she would, actually.

"And they shouldn't ooze much at all."

"If I try one of yours," said Summer, because obviously he had to know she'd at least ask, "are you going to try one of mine?"

"Mine aren't gross," Stark pointed out.

"I'll try yours if you try yours. And I'll try mine."

"Looks like we're both just trying your cupcakes!" said Summer, cheerfully, with barely even a pause to even consider any other possible outcome.

"That's fair," Stark said. He tried not to sound too relieved.

"What flavor are yours even meant to be? Or is it better not to know?"

It was probably better not to know.

"Here." He picked up one of his creations and held it out. "Strawberry and champagne with very little oozing."

"That's too bad," said Summer, who was already being the worst, might as well go big or go home, as she took the offered cupcake. "I usually like my strawberries and champagne with plenty of oozing.

"And I think the flavor is just....gross. i am glad to say I haven't had enough pus in my mouth to confidently say it just tastes like that. But the cupcakes themselves are just vanilla."

"I think everyone is better off not eating one then. But these," Stark said, holding up his own cupcake, "should be delicious and not gross at all."

He took a big bite to demonstrate, ending up with icing and filling on his lips that he tried to wipe off.
