Military Log - 008

[mustbemaes.livejournal.com]

[As people recover from the hangovers, you may notice that the hallways are not JUST covered in Christmas decorations any more. No, in the midst of all the chaos someone went through the entire Cafeteria deck and pasted various pictures of Elysia all over everything. Some have been blown up to be more like posters than actual pictures, but it's mostly just Elysia EVERYWHERE. A trail of these pictures can even be found going down to the dormitory decks, but it's not as bad as the cafeteria which looks like it EXPLODED with Elysia pictures.

Cambot shows all of this and eventually find the culprit, sleeping with a large stuffed animal (a dog) and curled up in the pantry. He is still wearing the Santa hat but no other part of the costume.]

You're the boss.

[Wow she works fast. He starts to pour in the flour, careful not to add TOO much into the bowl.

After that he reaches over and grabs the baking powder to add to the bowl as well. He makes a face at the idea of soda in muffins]

Eugh. You've done that before it sounds like?

[sailorlaughter]

Only once!

[Finishing with the other bowl, she grabs a whisk and slides it over to him, before picking another up in her mouth.] And now...WE WHISK!!!

[dadandgone]

[ Maes accepts the whisk and begins, well, whisking. Now he can add baking with a pony to his list of things he would never thought he would do ever or even think about never doing.

The SoL was weird like that]

[sailorlaughter]

[Pinkie certainly never thought before that she'd end up baking with a human before, especially since she'd never even HEARD of humans then! But that doesn't really occur to her much, and right now she's too busy whisking like a madpony to worry about it. She could give the Stir Whip Alien a run for its money in enthusiasm, if not creepiness.]

[Eventually she stops whisking and bounces over to peer into Maes's bowl.] Great job! Here, lemme pour this part in! [She didn't even really have to mix her ingredients separately, she just likes whisking. She pours her bowl in and bounces off.] You can mix in some blueberries now too! Just save some to put on top later!

[dadandgone]

All right. No problem. I'll just put these blueberries in this bowl for later.

[He sets some blueberries aside before adding in the rest to the mix and stirring it, making sure that berries were evenly distributed]

Do you have the oven pre-heated Pinkie?

[sailorlaughter]

[She comes bouncing back over with a newly-greased muffin pan in her mouth and drops it on the counter to look at Maes's work again.]

You bet! That looks really even - now we can pour it out and put the other blueberries on top! The top is the BESTEST part of the muffin, see, so we have to make sure it gets a TON of berries!

[dadandgone]

[He nods and starts carefully pouring the batter into the muffin pans. There are a few times it drips, but over all it's not a bad or uneven batch.]

Alright, I put the extra blueberries in that bowl. Why don't you put them on top to make sure it's just right?

[sailorlaughter]

Okie-dokie-lokie! [She likes teaching people how to bake new things, but she also likes doing it herself! She grabs the berries and scatters them, taking special care to make sure each muffin has about the same amount. Then she pops the whole thing in the oven.]

And now we just wait! Wasn't that FUN?

[dadandgone]

Yeah, it was. Thanks for letting me help.

[sailorlaughter]

Thank YOU so so SO much for helping! Baking with friends is SO much more fun than baking alone, and it was already really really fun, so now it's really really super-ultra-DUPER fun!
