WEEK FIVE

Come Sunday morning, the portals around Estelline fade away, but not all of the oddities hanging around disappear so quickly. The recreations of your dreams and memories are still around, ever changing and shifting. Whatever it is that brought these things here hasn’t ended, not yet.

You don’t have time to worry about all of that, though, even if you know you should exercise caution once two of you found yourselves on the bad end of a monster’s claws. The course still isn’t over, though, even if the portals changed lesson plans. Everything continues on, with new places to explore as the fog pushes back once again. This week still feels a little more like what you’re familiar with, though, after Saturday’s lack of lessons.

...For now.

[catarou]

My, you've gone all out, haven't you?

[ He's amused, but at the same time, it's nice. Gentaro thinks this might be a way of taking care of people, and while he doesn't have a huge sweet tooth, he can definitely appreciate the bread and shortbread along with a cup of tea or coffee. ]

How long did it take you to make all of this?

[partymagician]

[ He looks up from his table, smiling over at Gentaro. ]

Well, I needed something to keep myself occupied, and baking was a good way to go about it. [ He laughs. ] It took me most of the day yesterday.

[catarou]

Would you happen to be a stress baker, Fai?

[ He chuckles softly and pulls up a chair. ]

Everything looks wonderful. May I trouble you for some bread?

[partymagician]

...I won't confirm or deny that statement!

[ So, apparently yes. It did make him feel a lot better to focus on something... ]

Feel free to cut yourself a slice.

[catarou]

Well, we do have our quirks.

[ He's gently amused, but he cuts himself a piece of bread and tries a bite. ]

It's wonderful. You're very skilled.

[partymagician]

Thanks. Cooking and baking has always come easy to me. It reminds me of concocting potions, where you have to mix the precise amount of all of your ingredients together to get your desired result.

[ ...He's a huge magic nerd, basically. ]

[catarou]

You know, many people would flock to a magician who bakes and cooks wonderful things.

[ ... Actually, that's not a bad idea for a novel at all. Gentaro makes a mental note to write it down. ]

Have you ever considered a business of the sort?

[partymagician]

Nothing long-term. It's a lot of paperwork, you know!

[ He laughs softly. ]

I do wonder if I would enjoy baking full time, though.

[catarou]

Ah, paperwork--the bane of every living soul.

[ He chuckles softly. ]

I believe it would suit you well. Even if it's for only your loved ones, I imagine it's a fulfilling line of work.

[partymagician]

Mm. There's nothing better than watching someone you care for eat something that you made yourself.

[ It makes his heart feel full. ]
