6th Mistake; a delicious mistake

[moralperil]

[Mahdi addresses the screen dressed in a red apron with his name embroidered on one side: a perhaps-obviously handmade gift from a friend. The apron and his face and bare arms are smudged with flour and a few streaks of chocolate.]

Um, does anyone want cookies? I made cookies.

[Around this time you may notice that pretty much every inch of the kitchen counter is covered with foil-wrapped paper plates.]

I made a few dozen.

And a pie. Maybe two pies.

Baking is how I vent stress sometimes, I guess, um...

I guarantee these cookies will make everyone feel a bit better! So let me know if you'd like a plate, I can drop it off with you. I'll probably be leaving some at the clinic too.


[OOC: Mahdi's cookies will, miraculously, give one a lingering sense of warmth and affection for a short time, due to his powers of emotional projection.]

[ Free cookies. Free cookies delivered. ]

Why, I'd be delighted to take them off your hands, but I do have one question.

What's the catch?

voice;

[moralperil]

Catch? [This pause almost seems to indicate confused blinking.] There isn't one. I even used paper plates so you won't have to return anything...

[velveteened]

( you know he wasn't going to talk to anyone but cookies. )

You made all that much?

( it's not actually that surprising, knowing gilbert who's much the same in some ways, but still. )

[moralperil]

...Yeah. I kind of didn't sleep. [Which is something he only now just realized. Still, he remains cheerful!]

Don't really need to sleep anyway! Do you like cookies?

[Voice]

[hornedomen]

[Quietly:] I'd like a cookie, thank you.

I have a new toy for you.

voice;

[moralperil]

--Toy? [Mahdi is confused a moment.] I told you I didn't need you to replace that! It's really fine, I'm a grown-up after all!

I arranged the cookies onto these plates, sure you only want one?

You guarantee it? Pretty bold of you to say so.

Your generosity will surely be appreciated.

[moralperil]

I hope so! I wouldn't want all this to go to waste.

What kind of cookies would you like?

[perdre]

That's a pretty good way to vent.

[moralperil]

I just want to be useful. Even this probably isn't enough to get most people to smile for more than a moment, everyone likes cookies, right?

[redheadcarrier]

You know, I could actually use some cookies right now.

[moralperil]

[copia]

If you still have some, I'd like to pick up a few!

[moralperil]

[video]

[galactically]

A creative way to vent, isn't it?

[She chuckles amiably.]

And I'd like some cookies, please! Do you have cranberry and sugar?

[moralperil]

I'm sorry, I don't have cranberry and sugar. That sounds like an awesome combo, though! If you have a recipe I hope you'll share it.

I have snickerdoodles. Those are cinnamon and sugar!

[acts_of_claudia]

Hey, I'll never say no to cookies.

[moralperil]

Excellent! I have snickerdoodles, double chocolate chip, and ginger carrot.

voice;

[eyecaptivating]

Ehehe, you're right. Cookies sound great right now!

You must have worked really hard on them, too. I'd love some!

[moralperil]

I think I did. I was kind of... like I went into a baking trance? I just wanted to...

[A long pause.]

I wanted to help, I guess. [There's so little anyone can do.]

I have double chocolate chip, snickerdoodles, and ginger carrot.

Action at the Clinic, if that's alright with you?

[devilsfruitdoctor]

[Ibin's holed up at the clinic, once again buried in medical texts. He knows he could have done more, healed more people, spared more pain, if only he were better. Besides, a book is as good a place as any to hide from the hours and hours filled with screams and sobbing, the stink of blood and charred flesh, the stitched-together soldiers marching back into the portal still trailing bandages.]

Oh! Um, hello! Can I help you?

sure!

[moralperil]

Cookie delivery! [Mahdi is pulling a little red wagon full of aluminum-wrapped paper plates.]

[battlesleep]

That is thoughtful of you. Another form of making people happy?

[moralperil]

[curatesecrets]

I think you just said the magic words, kiddo. Where can I find you?

[moralperil]

[And for that message, he has the most unimpressed look.] No cookies for guys who call me kiddo. I'm 25. [Never mind that he definitely looks more like 15.]
