[gawds. stahp! she's already up in her feelings as it is!]

Well, you...you did quite well. Quite well. Yes. I'll treasure it.

[Oh Cecelia, he isn't trying to work you up. He's just a friend and he cares about his friends. Hell, she could almost count as family if he didn't feel so very, very awkward around her so often.]

Good. Oh, and the grass around the base? That's candy as well. I tried out sugar spinning. It... didn't go as well. But the rest should be nice. I can restock the fruit on it in the future too if you want.

I can't tell if this is a result of your studies in alchemy or food chemistry, honestly...! You really are quite remarkable, aren't you. [bashful, she keeps her eyes down on the gift.]

[helpdesk_hero]

I actually lost my alchemical tutor so this is entirely food chemistry work. As for me... well, you DID remark on it.

[she snorts.] Omigawwds, shut up! You know what I mean and you're just being-! Bah!

[Is he being bah? How is one bah? Clearly he is not very bah. But he keeps those jokes to himself.]

I know, Cece. But that's what friends do. Because we care.

quieter:] Thank you. David.

[helpdesk_hero]

You're welcome. As for me... I believe I have a book to read and enjoy.
