WHAT in person
WHERE THE MALL AND OTHER PLACES OF BUSINESS
WHEN DAY """""8"""" VERY POSSIBLY ANY TIME ON DAY EIGHT

[THERE IS A GUY IN A SLICK MAROON SUIT who for once in his life has his tie done all the way up like he wants to be professional or something.

He's wandering around job hunting.

Maybe he will poke his head into your place of business to see if you are hiring!!

Maybe you should leave a comment here, being at work, so he can do that.]

[Since Dave is manning the stove he will clean up a bit and then deal with this bread whatever. BREAD MIX]

[Also he snorts a bit, amused]

Conventional niceness would probably work on you.

[pfft]

Everything works on me.

Exactly. So it's probably less that I'm nice and more that your bar is low.

[Hmmmm over the recipe on this bread mix]

I probably should have started this first.

Or future you is nice to me because I'm adorable.

[comes over to take a look at the recipe and just in general]

I don't know what the more shocking twist is. That you didn't jump straight to making me time god it or that I'm offering.

[Kind of blinks at him.

For a solid second of thought processing then.]

Oh.

That's why he likes baking.

[ROLLS HIS EYES but he's amused.]

Oh, my gog, and here I was thinking you were just solid housewife material, or found peace in the process of cultivating yeast.

The science of it is also more specific than I expected it to be. The books he gave me was mostly about the chemical processes involved. But manipulating time makes it possible to have more fine control over the results.

[ok well, starts getting the wet ingredients measured]

That reminds me, I need help stealing some expensive equipment from the school.

Because I'm a delinquent or because I'm a time god.

Because you have the ability to put objects into a pocket dimension.

[hahaha]

Ok. What are we stealing and why are we stealing it.

Anything that looks interesting, probably. But specifically a microscope or two and a bunch of other supplies. Syringes for sure. Whatever chemicals they have on hand. I'm going to set up a lab in my second room.

Oh hell yeah, in no way does this sound like the premise of a cheesy horror movie. Count me in.

I think everything about this place is the premise of a horror movie, but it never quite commits.

[rereads the recipe dubiously then goes to wash his hands and start kneading dough]

[Dave is like, stirring his thing. Cooking Happening.]

Ha, yeah, that's actually true. Just don't like, catalyze a fucking gremlin or something, we're about at the level of science horror shenanigans.

When you go to the future you can check if we have a pet gremlin too.

There is no way in hell I'm not naming our gremlin Bruce Willis so you better make your peace with that.

As long as Bruce stays at your place you can name it whatever you want.

[This is very stupid but kind of fun, Kaito seems to be enjoying himself.

this bread is a challenge tho he has no idea what he is doing and is bad at kneading and it's gone from eing too sticky to too floury. maybe add some oil back in..? hmmm]

[Look at him getting all Sherlock Holmes over that dough, that is adorable. Adoughrable. Dave snorts to himself, smiling. He'll have to work that into the rap. Which he starts to work on, since he'll need it, mumbling quietly.]

[Eventually Kei gets the dough to where he is satisfied, covers it up and puts it in the oven where he's just gotten it just a liiittle bit warm. He leans back against the counter.]

Okay, it needs to rise for 30 minutes.

[He clicks the stove off, gesturing to the oven.]

Want me to give it a try?

Go for it.

Ok.

[he eyes the oven. Seems to almost start a couple times.]

Christ this feels weird. Like I should be wiggling my fingers or something at least.

You can probably wiggle them if you want. It's your magic spell.

[Snorts]

This is ridiculous wizards aren't even in my genes. I really should have figure dout a cooler way to do this.

[he does though, kind of wiggle his fingers, mumbling through some verses which include such gems as "Sherloaf Holmes" and yes "adoughrable" might be mentioned in conjunction to Kaito's names if he is listening.]

Alright. Let's see if I fucked it up.

[He is listening but you know what.

he's not even gonna ask. Instead he squats down to look into the oven as he works, watching the dough rise like one of those fast forward movies, and when Dave is done he reaches in to check it out.

It definitely rose, but it's a bit dry and cracked over the surface.]

Hm... I'll probably need to lower the temperature and do something to keep the outside moist.
