Cupcakes for Sato-sensei!
âYAMADA-SAN!â They immediately flinch as they hear the back door of the Ambrosia Cafe slam open.
âW-Watanabe-chan, do be careful with the door!â Hikari Yamada yelps as Michiko stumbles in, barely adjusting the ribbons on her uniform,âWhy are you shouting all of a sudden?!â
âI need something sweet.â was the response,âI know we have those cute cupcakes with the faces! Can I take some, please? You can even take out a bit from my paycheck!â
âSlow down, slow down!â Hikari grabs a hold of her hands,âFirst off, take a deep breath and calm down.â
A beat of silence, but she complies, taking a deep breath and exhaling, feeling her shoulders relax.
âGood.â They sigh,âSecond, kindly explain why you suddenly took an interest in the cupcakes?â
ââŚâ they see her face flush and mumble,ââŚIts my teacherâs birthday⌠I wanted to bring cupcakes for my class⌠pâŚplease donât be madâŚâ
Hikari couldnât help but burst out into laughter at that, to Michikoâs confusion and fluster. The older man slapped their knee and kept on laughing for a solid minute until he was wheezing and on his knees. The woman was less than amused.
âYamada-san, this is serious!â
âI know!â They straighten up, laughing still,âIts just⌠oh Michichi⌠do you really think Iâd be mad?â
He laughed even more for a bit before finally relaxing,âMichichi⌠oh sweetheart⌠Iâd never be mad at something so sweetâŚ! Of course you can make cupcakes for your class!â
Michikoâs face lit up,âReally?!â
âOf course!â Hikari grins,âFree of charge! Just ah⌠donât tell Yuna and RikuâŚâ
She races over, hugging the larger man in glee,âYES! Thank you thank you SO MUCH!â
âOkay okay! Donât thank me like this.â They grin, giving her head a pat,âThank me with how youâre making these cupcakes!â
âAlright! By the way, do you have any motor oil at the moment?â
Four boxes of six and three individuals. Michiko hummed cheerily as she carried them to the class, setting them on her desk and waited for their teacher to come in. Itâs admittedly kind of nerve-wrecking. What if someone didnât like their cupcake? What if she got the flavors wrong? She really hoped she didnât flub some perfectly good cupcakes, especially the one for Manami (the trial and error on that one!).
âMindâŚâ Sato looked at the boxes with a raised eyebrow,âWhatâs all this?â
âOh! WellâŚâ Michiko stood up, before setting the boxes all up and opening to revealed the contents. Each cupcake was tailored in flavor from base to topping to fit the recipient and they have little details that indicated who got what.
âSince I heard itâs your birthdayâŚâ She holds out the box containing the cupcake meant for her teacher,âI thought Iâd make some cupcakes for you and for everyone, courtesy of Ambrosia Cafe!â She grins,âHappy Birthday, Osamu-sensei!â
I CANT DRAW OR FIND A PICREW SO UNFORTUNATELY YOUâLL HAVE TO FIGURE OUT WHAT THE CUPCAKES LOOK LIKE YOURSELVES (SORRY >.<) BUT I CAN GIVE LITTLE DETAILS:
-Manamiâs is oil and orange flavored!
-Jetsamâs is all cute and pastel because she remembered how cute his shoes were when she first saw him.
-The 26th cupcake isnât for her, itâs actually for Toshinori! She didnât make a cupcake for herselfâŚ
-has bags under her eyes, yea she literally spent all night making these cupcakes (ofc she had help but still)
-There is at least one gumball in Jiroâs for the joke
(Be sure to add some other details she may have added to the cupcakes!)
NOW FOR THE LONG AF TAG LIST (any new arrivals will be tagged in a reblog because i dunno who else got accepted!)
