I know this is small comfort right now, but for anyone tired of nutrition bars, there's cake in the cafeteria.

[For anyone headed to the cafeteria: there are actually about a bazillion cakes of different kinds. It's the Lambda+Katsuya special.]

Comments

[withak]

I'll cut you a slice.

[He picks out the cake an a knife to slice some off.]

[technologic]

Ah, t-thank you. I'll, um, need a couple since I want to take some to someone too.

[withak]

As you wish.

[You get two slices then!]

[technologic]

Ah, thank you very much, um...? [She isn't gonna call you cake dude, dat rude.]

[withak]

Katsuya Suou. I don't believe we've met?

[technologic]

Nice to meet you, Katsuya, I'm April. And nope I don't think we have. [She gives him a friendly smile.]

... Did you, uh, make all these cakes yourself?

[withak]

I did, though Miss Lamda helped me with the ingredients.

[technologic]

Where did she find the ingredients?

[withak]

She made them herself.

[technologic]

... Huh? How? Does she have a power that lets her do that?

[withak]

I believe she's some sort of witch.

[technologic]

Wow, that's amazing! When you see her again, can you tell her that I said 'thank you' for this?

[withak]

I'll be sure to tell her.

[technologic]

Thank you, Katsuya... Ah, and I'll make sure to pay you back for this.

[withak]

Providing services for the public is a policeman's duty - in other words, you don't have to repay me at all.

[technologic]

[Blink.] ... Policeman?

[withak]

I'm a policeman.

[technologic]

What... exactly is a policeman? Do they, uh, just provide services for people?

[withak]

They enforce the law as a service for the public.

[technologic]

Ah, that would be why I've never heard of a policeman. My world is rather... lawless.

But it sounds like an incredible position to have!

[withak]

Thank you.

[Your world sounds awful.]

[technologic]

[Post-apocalyptic wastelands huzzah.]

You're welcome! And thanks again for the cake.

[withak]

It's no trouble at all.

[technologic]

But is still really nice of you to do, especially after... what happened this past week.

- Oh, um, do you have anything I could borrow to carry the cake slices in? I think the person I wanna bring some cake too is in their dorm room.

[withak]

There are boxes in the kitchen you could use.
