09 | BAKE SALE | OPEN

[imaginationswoes]

VIDEO

[A happy smile flickers on the screen as Airy starts the video feed. Her long curly hair is shining gold in the sun and it looks like she's outside somewhere. She's wearing a cute pink outfit that screams summer time shenanigans. Whatever she's doing it looks like she’s having fun and trying very hard not to laugh.]

Hi everyone! I’m having a bake sale! I'll be outside of the Genessia Library. I’ve been baking all night and I promise it’s going to be delicious.

Why am I have a bake sale? Easy! This will fund Strider Productions! [She moves the camera to show off a pin at her hip. Yes, she has more and will be handing them out.] I'm going to be helping with his next production about sea bunnies! So come and support us okay?

ACTION

[For anyone who missed Airy’s overly peppy announcement they’ll find signs all over Genessia which advertise her bake sale and have a convenient arrow pointing in its direction.

Standing in front of the Genessia Library is a fairly simple bake sale set up. Airy has all the standards: rice crispy treats, cookies, cookies designed like burgers, mini apple pies, cupcakes, cupcakes, cupcakes and more cupcakes. She’d been baking all night and into the early morning. As the day dwindles she’ll begin to look more and more tired and be ingesting more and more coffee.

No matter the time of day she'll greet those walking up with a smile.]

Bake sale! Step right up for sugary sweet bliss~

CLOSED | NOTE 2 Nathan

[Nathan will find the following note placed on a small plate of cupcakes when he wakes up that morning.]

Nathan,

Sorry I left early and that the kitchen smells like cupcakes. I made a lot of cupcakes. The good news is that I left the mocha ones at home for you. <3

Please don’t eat them all at once. I want one too.

I’m having a bake sale in front of the Library so we’ll walk home together when your shift ends!

<3’s

Airy

[Sakura just happens to be out and about the city, seeing what it all has to offer and adjust to her new environment. She had been keeping her path simple so she can find her way back.

But she was soon following the smell of something sweet, and before long, a nice little discovery. A delightful little bake sale! Sakura hurried on over to browse the selection.]

"Wow, they're all so cute! Did you bake these yourself?"

[Airy smiles at the young girl.]

Yup and I made them all last night so they're fresh.

[She is very proud of how much she got done if not a little sleepy.]

[ Airy's video definitely made Jefferson shake his head in amusement. As always her enthusiasm was both refreshing and contagious, and that she was doing it all just for Dave made him feel just a little bit proud. Was that weird? Probably. Oh well.

Naturally he was more than just a bit inclined to pay a visit. She'd worked hard, so how could he not go? Besides wanting to support her efforts and see what she'd come up with in person, he kind of wanted to get a better look at that silly Strider Productions pin.

There was also the fact that if the rest of her baking was half as good as her pies he probably wouldn't have been able to resist regardless of anything else. ]

Airy!

[ Once he was close enough he held up an arm to wave to her. ]

Someone's been busy.

[action]

[imaginationswoes]

[Airy's head turns at the sound of her name being called. She places down the cup of coffee she'd been sipping on and moves so she's standing behind the table directly in front of Jefferson. Don't ask her how many of those she's had today.]

Jeff! You made it. [She pauses wondering when she started calling him Jeff but quickly continues.]

Always.

[She has to give herself something to do or she'd go crazy.]

Anything catch your eye?

[aurabble]

Are sea bunnies really a thing?

[Food and sea bunnies. That sounds amazing.]

[imaginationswoes]

I don't see why they can't be... I mean, I think they are but what I have in mind is probably not what they are.

I'd google it if I could.

[callmeimouto]

....Dave seriously has a pin now? Really?

[ugh okay. inflate his ego some more now.] Is this for a movie he wants to make?

video;

[imaginationswoes]

Isn't it cute?

[Airy worked really hard on this pin.]

Sort of, it's a movie we're making together.

[of course ludger is there, looking at all of her different treats. he nods at them all, definitely approving. in her year away she really has changed a lot.

once he sees airy he just smiles at her, waving a little as well.]

Hey. These all look really great, good job!

action;

[imaginationswoes]

You sound surprised.

[She smiles brightly at him before bringing her coffee to her lips. She so tired but the adrenaline of the bake sale is keeping her awake and perky. She's still young, she can go a single night without sleeping.]

Anything that catches your eye? Baking is something I can do pretty well.

[Plus she's had practice; a lot of practice.]

action

[ironforged]

[he doesn't have a whole lot of money but he goes over to the bake sale anyway. When he gets there, though, it occurs to him that she might not recognize or even remember him-- so he puts his hands in his pockets and stares at the brownies and tries not to be conspicuous- all the while half hoping she'll notice him]

action

[imaginationswoes]

[Airy has a pretty good memory and when she spots the familiar face she smiles. She has to finish with the person in front of her before she can turn and greet Joseph.]

Hey, it's good to see you.

[She takes a sip of her coffee to aid in her continued efforts to stay awake.]

See anything you like?

[om_nom_namur]

Sugary sweet bliss, huh? That yer way a sayin' it'll put y' in a shitty food coma for a week?

[Hey look, it's her counterpart from the Best Date Ever(tm)!]

How much for the pink one?

[imaginationswoes]

[Airy looks up at him trying to hide her smile.]

Shitty food? I take offense to that.

[Her mom taught her how to bake these cupcakes.]

These are delicious. I was up all night making them.

[Belle had been hard at work for most of the day, stack books, scanning new ones and putting them into the system. Anything that was related so she could simply focus on what she had to, to get through the day. When she clocked out, she sighed with relief that it was finally over.

However as she was about to leave the doors, she couldn't help but notice the rather large group of people that had gathers around. With confusion obvious, she stepped out of the door, trying to find the source of where people had been gathering.

It seemed to be a bake sale...]

It's a nice little stand you have.

action;

[imaginationswoes]

[Airy jumps at the voice to her right and turns with a smile. As the day's continued her sleepless night has begun to catch up with her. She's exhausted but she's waiting for Nathan to get off of work to head home.]

Hi!

Can I help you with anything?

[She reaches for her coffee and guzzles down what's left hoping that it might keep her awake.]

video;

[firefandance]

Oh! A bake sale, sounds lovely. How have you been doing so far?

[She thought she might as well ask.]

video;

[imaginationswoes]

really good! I think my cupcakes are a hit.

[Some of them are super cute.]

I have mostly cupcakes but the cookies and rice-crispy treats are going too. Are you going to stop by?

[thelastdruid]

[At least the note made it clear why their apartment smelled like a bakery when he left for work. He watched her most of the day through the front windows of the library, stealing glances when he could. When his shift was finally over, he moved next to her at her station, smiling at her drooping eyes.]

Hey, Airy...did you sleep last night?

( action )

[imaginationswoes]

[Airy feels a smile tug at her lips when she Nathan steps next to her. This bake sale is going well, to well, she's been busy all day and has been standing the heat. Airy leans against Nathan.]

Not even a little bit.

[She'll just fall asleep on him right now.]

[usestwohands]

[The Drow has one burning question, okay. Just one, and he's really deep in thought about it.]

What are sea bunnies?

( video )

[imaginationswoes]

They're bunnies that live in the sea.

[Clearly Airy has thought this out.]
