2nd Shadow [Accidental Video]

That was not how it should have turned out. I wonder just where it went wrong.

[Something bumped against Nikola's phone as it starts recording. The normally well put together man was surprisingly dressed in a nice T-shirt. Or, it would have been a nice t-shirt if it didn't suddenly have blueberry pie splattered across it. And flower... and perhaps a bit of crust clinging to his hair without him realizing it.

As for Nikola, he was currently attempting to clean himself up with paper towel with pie filling and crust splattered across his arms and a bit on his face. Surprisingly despite being splattered with the obviously steaming filling, he wasn't burned in the slightest. The remains of the pie were on the counter near him and somehow.. it seemed to have exploded outward and was still rather hot. Honestly, Nikola was NOT sure how that happened. Usually he was rather good at making pies... and baking in general.

It takes a few moments for him to clean the splatter off his face and then he notices that his phone was on. The very same phone he had been looking up recipes on earlier. He sighed softly and reached over to turn it off. Did this really need to be broadcast for all to see? Really?]

[Look Nikola, there's a blond who can't stop laughing at the sight of you, though she is trying not to laugh too hard about it.]

I thought you said you knew how to bake. Doesn't look like you were very successful.

[Damn it. Jenny was one of the last people he wanted to see this. ]

Usually, I can. As far as I can tell, I followed the recipe as close as I could.

[She raised an amused brow at him.]

Really? It looks an awful lot like it exploded though.

[He sighed and tried not to look as annoyed as he really was about the entire thing.]

It did. I'm still not sure how.

[Another chuckle.]

A wrong ingredient somewhere or the wrong proportions maybe?

Quite possibly.

The measurements between this world and my own may not be quite compatible to what I know.

It's possible. Didn't you try to calculate the difference in measurements before attempting this?

...To the best of my abilities, yes.

[He's really trying not to look sheepish at that. ]

And you did take into account that some ingredients here are different from those of other worlds, yeah?

I attempted to, yes. However, your...'flour' might be made of something different than ours or something along those lines.

[He really didn't have any idea. Pies were not supposed to be explosive.]

Perhaps. It's certainly a possibility, but are you sure you bought flour and not baking soda or something?

Too much baking soda? I've done that.

You didn't upset Cheshire recently did you?

Quite possibly. I think my measurements were rather off with this being the result.

[Case in point, the blueberry goop that just dripped from the ceiling onto his shoulder.]

...Are you referring to that floating cat that's always hanging around? No, I haven't. I tend to ignore him, why? Did something happen?

That might be enough. But he probably wouldn't interfere with baked goods. I think. He'd just wait until it was finished and steal it.

...I would rather he stole the pie than explode it if that just happens to be the case.

Be careful what you wish for.

If he stole it, I would have simply made another.

He might do just that... if you remake it with less baking soda.

[He sighed slightly.]

I will not deny my measurements may have been off. It's either that or the ingredients I used when following the recipe are slightly different than those of my world.

...But, I'll try for less baking soda regardless next time.

[Winks.] Actually I didn't consider that. Hmmm... I guess I was lucky then that the TARDIS just filters things to make it easier for me! Hahah...

[He smiles slightly, though now he's curious.]

The TARDIS? I'm afraid I'm not familiar with that term.

[Dove scrunches her nose up, though whether it's to cover the somewhat amused grin she's wearing or the full grimace over the shirt's demise is unclear.]

There are much easier ways of tie-dying a shirt, you know.

[...at least she does look a little bit concerned about the heat coming off the pie...]

So I am very aware. This was hardly my intention when I set out to bake a pie today.

[Despite the heat, he didn't seem to have an issue with it as he wiped some of the filling off his arm.]

Yeah, I bet...

[she frowns curiously as she watches him clean himself up a bit.]

...isn't that sort of hot?

[He pauses, winces and then nods slightly.]

Yes, it is.

[Then again with his fortitude, something like this was hardly hot enough to really hurt him..]

But, I can most definitely handle it.
