[When Rei turns the feed on, the device is a little ways away from her, so the first thing that can be seen is her straightening and withdrawing her hand.

It is very quickly apparent that she's in the kitchen, probably baking, if the ingredients around her are any indication. She's a little messy and her expression is one of vague determination. She stares at the recipe book in front of her as though uncertain about the directions she's being given.

Why is she recording this? Well, it's either a silent invitation to come and eat the cake she's making, should she succeed in finishing it, or it's an equally silent solicitation for help, since she's never baked before in her life.]

Okay. [Rei quickly ices some of the blue cake and puts it on a plate for him.]

[Minato got a fork and thanked her for the makeshift piece of cake. He tried some of the blue with the icing on it.]

... It's good.

[Hey, that's a lot coming from a silent protagonist who will eat almost anything, really.]

[She smiles. Just a little. She knows he wouldn't lie about it just to make her happy--since it WOULDN'T make her happy to give Terezi a gross cake.]

Okay.

[It really was good. Minato finished the piece he had been given, not just to prove the point, but he wanted to since hey, it's cake, and it's good.]

She'll like it. You did a good job.

Were you giving it to her now?

[If not, Minato was going to find a place in one of the refrigerators for it just temporarily.]

[second-first.livejournal.com]

No. Not yet.

We'll put it in the fridge then. It'll keep longer.

[He helped Rei move the cake onto another cake stand with a clear glass lid tall enough to cover it all untouched. There was some space in another refrigerator where the cake could be left until it was needed.]

[Rei finds some paper and a pen and writes FOR TEREZI and sticks it under the edge of cover.]

[Perfect. Minato smiled and gently closed the fridge once that was done.]

I'll help clean up.

[She murmurs a "thank you" and starts to do just that.]
