I have a cute ask.
How would(any of them) act to their partner making them a cake as a treat but they got mixed up and put salt instead of sugar?
This one made me laugh, thank you!
Lillianna was usually the one who did the baking for her and her partner, so when her partner presented her with a cake that they made themself, she was overjoyed! She hoped there weren't still dishes for her to clean up, but it was a small matter to deal with later. Right now, there was cake.
She cut a slice for her and her partner each, and served them with little dessert forks. Since they baked the cake for her, she took the first bite...and almost spit it back out.
"Oh dear." Lillianna didn't know what to do. It would be exceptionally rude to insult someone's baking, especially if it was a gift. But it seemed, from the taste of the cake, that they had completely neglected to add any sugar whatsoever. Or, more likely, they mixed up the sugar with the salt.
She waited until her partner tasted it, and when they laughed it off, she laughed with them. She was only too happy to help them bake a replacement cake.
Aquarios was quick to take a bite of cake - after all, his datemate had baked it for him, he should taste it! Unfortunately... well, it tasted very salty.
"Did, um, did you use seawater for this, by any chance?" He asked, cocking his head to the side. When his datemate seemed confused, he offered them a bite of his slice, and all was made clear.
It seemed they mixed up the sugar with the salt. Which would explain why it tasted the way it did.
Aquarios just laughed it off and set his plate aside.
"Don't worry," He said, laughing softly as he pulled his datemate in for a hug. "I don't need cake to know how you feel. And I definitely don't need cake to feel it back at you."
Dezyn recognized his partner's mistake immediately, and burst into laughter. When they got offended, he had to wave his hands and try to talk them down from being upset with him.
"I'm not laughing at you!" He said, still laughing as he offered a forkful of cake to his partner. "Have a taste."
Their reaction too, was immediate.
"Right?" His laughter had dimmed to hearty chuckles as he set the plate aside. "My first time baking, I made the same mistake. Added way too much salt to the dough and got stuck eating salty chocolate chip cookies." Dez shrugged nonchalantly, but there was a spark of mischief about him. "But with the cookies, dunking them in melted chocolate helped, so maybe we can save this cake by drowning it in chocolate sauce?"
