[The video shot comes from the Cake Town Bakery, based on the spinning display case of donuts off to the left, and the mural of cupcake-toting robots on the wall behind Orihime's beaming face.]

We here at Cake Town wanted to let you all know about today's specials! Not only is it White Day where I come from, where men traditionally give sweets to women as thanks for the chocolate they got on Valentine's Day, but it's also Pi Day!

[She shifts the video to the side as she gestures grandly to the cake display case, which is now stocked with a multitude of freshly baked pies.]

By which I mean the mathematical symbol, but we're celebrating with pies. Usually we don't carry that kind of dessert, but we worked hard last night to come up with all kinds of fruit and cream pies, and a few special ones too. I recommend the chocolate pecan, it's very rich and satisfying!

[She holds the camera to move over the case so people can get a good look at their wares.]

We're selling them for only ten credits each, and all white desserts are buy one get one free! Just in case you have a harem of girlfriends, ha ha!

[She's...she's kidding, right? Has to be. The video returns to her, and she moves to stand in a way to include Shinjiro making his crepes to the side because otherwise she won't get him to be in the video.]

We also offer delivery and have two very fast deliverypeople ready to fulfill your orders. Please stop in today, and enjoy the holiday!

[The mural was the first thing that caught Kay's attention.]

Oh, so this is where Shinjiro works...these pies look very tasty. Could you save me a chocolate pecan one? My boyfriend might like it.

[And if he doesn't, Kay is sure Demyx will try it.]

[A robot! He's so cute! ♥]

Yes sir, I'll set it aside! Any friend of Shinjiro-san's is a friend of mine.

[plzbeherfriendplz]

['Cute' is not something Kay gets called often.]

Thank you. My name is K2SO, you don't have to call me sir. Shinjiro and I worked together in the past, so to speak. I'm glad that he's found a job he enjoys.

[She's polite and nice, he already likes her.]

[She's going to always think of him as cute. She just won't say it out loud because she doesn't want him to think she's being patronizing.]

Me too! And he's really good at it, people go crazy for his crepes. And he's reliable, and hard-working, and hilarious... I couldn't ask for a better business partner!

Anyway, it's nice to meet you, K2SO-san. I'm Orihime!

[Aw.Very cute, Orihime. He won't mind if she ever mentions it.]

I believe it all except the hilarious part. I didn't even know Akihiko could crack jokes. If he feeling all right?

Likewise, Orihime.

It's good to see you remembered.

I'll stop by today. [Okay he doesn't normally care for sweets but chocolate pecan, come on.]

You've supported me from the beginning, Ford-san. This is the least I could do to thank you!

Mm. [He appreciates that, but he's not really sure how to express that. Other than saying which would just be silly. So instead, he moves on to business.]

Speaking of the bakery, I have a proposition for you.

If someone buys a lot of different white desserts, you have to tell me so we can stalk them and arrest them for crimes against dignity for their harem!

[ She doesn't actually care but she would like to see a real harem in action ok it sounds ridiculous. ]

["We"?]

Ah ha ha! I don't know if that's illegal. I think stalking might be, though! Did you get a lot of reservations at your restaurant tonight, Nakiri-sama?

[Look, she respects her cooking skills, they're far beyond anything Orihime can do. She's earned her -sama formality!]

It's not illegal if they're illegally forming a harem!

[ Is that illegal? It should be. Who knows. Is this what you call a citizen's arrest? ]

We always do! We get dinner services booked up weeks in advance usually. Though most people don't really know about White Day here.

Really? I didn't know that!

[Stop corrupting her, Alice.]

I'd like to try your cooking sometime. I don't really know my schedule, though! Let me know if you get a cancellation, I can splurge on a good meal.

But you're from Japan too, right?

[ Who is corrupting, Alice is totally innocent!! ]

Well, when do you have free time? You run a bakery so I assume you're working early morning, if you have some time before dinner service you can come over and work with Ryo and I for a little bit.

[ Admittedly, that might be exhausting, but Alice is used to exhausting. Working in a kitchen is tiring as hell and she's been through all kinds of nightmare tests designed to wear people out to the last thread of their sanity as a chef!!

So Orihime can handle coming after work, obviously. ]

I am, though my family travels a lot. My mother is from Denmark!
