It's a piece of cake to bake a pretty cake
Who: Izuku Midoriya (
mightdoriya) and Katsuki Bakugo (
apshot)
Where: Pallet Town
When: Sometime in October
Summary: Izuku's Milcery very much wants to evolve, but the sweets to get her there are...expensive. Izuku's gotta pay his dues
Rating: PG, Katsuki's got a mouth on him otherwise nothing else should happen
Log:
[The past couple of weeks have been a bit of a haze for Izuku. He's not really sure what it is- maybe it's the seasons changing, or the fact sinking in slowly that in a few short months he'll have been in this world for a full year while his own falls apart at the seams- but he's definitely been working to shake some pre-winter slowness. His team hasn't entirely been following in his footsteps of course, still as spry and energetic as they always are, but they can tell that their trainer is feeling some kind of way. He's recovered from his injury a couple months ago at least, so he doesn't have that to think about.
But as all things tend to go, it's his Pokemon who have different plans for their trainer even if he's feeling a bit uncertain as to where he wants to go next. Sugar the Milcery has been antsy lately, which is a little unusual since she's one of Izuku's more shy teammembers. Now normally he could suss out what the issue was relatively easily, but every suggestion he posed was shot down pretty quickly by the little floating blob. It isn't until he's played a bit of Pokemon charades with her that the answer to their issue is finally discovered. She's ready to evolve.
The only problem is a big one: Milcery needs a sweet to evolve, and an expensive one at that. One that Izuku could technically afford, but he'd be pretty broke after...and he'd been trying to actually save some money for the upcoming holidays (and close friends' birthdays, naturally).
That's how he's found himself in Pallet town today at Mille's Bakery, lending her a helping hand to be able to afford the cost of the coveted sweet that he still hasn't even decided on yet. Izuku had been tasked with helping in the front of the store, tending to customers and stacking up displays. It's not difficult work, but it's not that he's finding to be a unique challenge persay...]
Kacchan, is the order for 2:00 ready? The customer should be here in a few minutes.
[He pokes his head in through the door leading back to the kitchen where Katsuki had been tasked to work. Why was he here at all? WELL...turns out, the Milcery he caught likes him quite a fair bit, and she had gotten quite upset at the idea Izuku would be heading out to get her sweet alone without him. Izuku still wasn't sure if Katsuki came because he didn't want to hear the Pokemon whining or maybe for the opportunity to work in another professional kitchen...either way, he's here too, and by the end of their work he should be able to take home a sweet for himself if he's so inclined. Sugar, meanwhile, had been floating happily above the counter while Izuku worked, though she'd been spending all of her extra time perusing the sweets held behind a glass display case.]

no subject
[ Or the ability to use blast chillers and the like. Custards and such. He could totally make it here. ]
no subject
Yet, it's difficult to backpedal now that it's been brought up. And part of him...really wants to try some of Katsuki's sweeter cooking. Well, as "sweet" as hot pepper ice cream can be.]
...if you find time between the other work we have to do and make some, I'll try it.
no subject
[ Because honestly? It'd probably sell anyway. He leaves long enough to ask permission - because he's not an ass like that.
Then returns and takes Izuku to the backrooms where cakes are decorated and stuff like that. ]
They'll get someone to take those buns out of the oven.
no subject
O-oh! Well, alright...
no subject
So in no time at all, it's there. Ready in a bowl and being served to Izuku. ]
Eat.
no subject
Before long, the ice cream is done. There it sits in a bowl in front of him, innocuous and unassuming.
Now, the question is...how hot is this ice cream?]
no subject
So eat it already.
[ A lot of people wouldn't really be able to guess that Katsuki is something of a cook, huh? Because it does command a level of finesse someone would suspect of someone with such a fiery temper and explosive Quirk. ]
no subject
Izuku tries it after a beat, working the ice cream around in his mouth and expecting it to hurt, but it...doesn't? Well, not right away, at least. He gets the full depth of the flavor long before it hurts, which is impressive in and of itself.]
Waah...Kacchan, this is- haaaah- [Oop, the burn is kicking in.] -h-a...r-really good...!
no subject
It's not that hot, Deku.
no subject
[He would have thought Katsuki would do well regardless though, since he's shown his prowess at cooking many times before.]
I take back what I said earlier about not being able to make ice cream spicy.
no subject
[ But they both know that Bakugou really isn't one to entertain crowds, right? So he was just looking for the most efficient way of making his meal. Which also probably says a lot about how much people actually liked it. ]
no subject
Well, with something that tastes like this, you won as far as I'm concerned. It really is good.
[So good, in fact, that the spice isn't going to deter him from continuing to eat it.]
no subject
Whatever. Though it shouldn't a surprise at all that shitty Deku likes his food. Bakugou's only been cooking for them all for a while. ]
Whatever. Even if it is pretty great, you're pretty biased as far as I am concerned.
no subject
W-well I mean...! Maybe a little...
[A "little".]
But I think even someone unbiased would think it's really good, too...
no subject
Even more annoying is the fact that Katsuki doesn't necessarily want that fact to change. Only that he's going to actually do shit to make the fucking nerd look at him. ]
Tch. Unbiased people are weak since they get terrified to even try.
