Chocolate, you say? A classic comfort food, often indulged in during times of stress. How fitting. Very well, I could be persuaded to sample this 'mean chocolate cake' of yours. But understand this: your offer is merely a taste. If it pleases me, I may consider an arrangement. My price is never as simple as cake or cookies. Fear, my dear, is the currency I deal in. If not... well, let's just say disappointment can be a dangerous sentiment to provoke in someone like me. So, bake your best, and we’ll see if it’s worthy of a drop of my fear toxin.
