[Suffice it to say that Katsuya was not pleased to be in this situation. He'd changed back into the normal clothes, avoided being attacked on the trip down the stairs, and settled into the first place he could contact a large group of the other people captured here.

He checked the previous entries and became even less pleased when he realized that his brother was here as well.]

I'll be brief. My name is Katsuya Suou, and I have just arrived in this tower. Is there anyone leading those captured here in an organized effort who I could speak to?

And one more thing: Tatsuya, I need to talk to you as soon as possible. Actually, I wouldn't mind speaking to any of his friends from this place.

Thank you.

That's quite impressive. Are there ingredients for all of those here?

[stalemates]

[She frowns, starting to pout a bit.]

No, this place has just about nothing good to eat.

[And she perks up suddenly.]

But! That doesn't matter for me! That's why I'm the minister of cake.

[withak]

I see. Well, it's a pleasure.

[He'd better stay on this person's good side.]

[stalemates]

Yeah, yeah, you too! So, now that we have that settled, what do you need~? ☆

[withak]

I need to make my brother a birthday cake.

[stalemates]

Oh! Is he having a party? Birthday cake is best at a party, you know. I can to~otally help!

[withak]

He doesn't like having a fuss made over him, so I don't think there will be a party. Just a cake.

[stalemates]

Hmmm, really? Who doesn't like parties. That's totally dumb. Oh well, I guess that's good enough, I'll help you! What kind of cake do you want?

[withak]

I was thinking of making him a black forest cake if I could manage it.

[stalemates]

Black forest is super delicious! He'll like that for sure! You want anything written on it?

[She won't ask how big, because to her it's obvious it has to be a giant one.]

[withak]

'Happy Birthday, Tatsuya'.

[stalemates]

'Kay~ Got it! Where do you want it and when? You can have it right now if you want!

[withak]

I'm already late for his birthday, so... Could you send it to room 2-18?

[stalemates]

You got it! One cake, coming right up~

[She winks and snaps her fingers - and in another part of the tower, that being room 2-18, a cake three feet in diameter suddenly falls, seemingly from the ceiling, and lands neatly. Happy birthday, Tatsuya...]

[withak]

Thank you very much, Miss Lambdadelta.

[stalemates]

You can totally just call me Lambda, I don't mind~★

[He appreciates cake. She likes that. A lot.]

[withak]

If you say so, Miss Lambda.

[He appreciates it too much.]

[stalemates]

Come eat cake with me sometime, okay? We'll eat 'til our guts explode!

[withak]

If this tower ever gets the proper ingredients, I'll whip something up myself.

[stalemates]

You can make cake?!

[Oh god, oh man. Best person ever. It's all well and good to make cake with magic, but being able to bake one is a whole different sort of magic!!]

I'll get you the ingredients!!

[withak]

Being a patissier was my ambition. Yes, I can bake you cake.

[stalemates]

Ah--! That's totally amazing, you're amazing!! I'll get all the ingredients, so just keep making your cakes! Don't stop following your dream!

[withak]

It's nice to hear that. What kind would you like first?

[stalemates]

Hmmm...what's your specialty? Everybody has a specialty, right? Maybe something with chocolate and strawberries!

[withak]

I've always taken pride in being well-rounded. Chocolate and strawberries it is.
