Sotsona and Casimir arrive at their cooking class site. They are led to their separate stations for cooking, getting dressed in their aprons and getting ready to cook. Casimir and Sotsona are stationed next to each other. Casimir glances at Sotsona, giving her a smug expression. Casimir Line 1) Don’t I look so cute in my apron? Casimir Line 2) I’m serving malewife realness. Sotsona laughs. Sotsona Line 3) Perhaps you are. Casimir Line 4) Isn’t this making you feel some sort of way? Casimir raises his eyebrows flirtatiously at Sotsona. Sotsona gives Casimir a weirded-out expression. Sotsona Line 5) No. In fact it’s suppressing the way you think I should feel about you. Casimir crosses his arms and pouts his lips, looking playfully offended. Casimir Line 6) You’re so blunt. Take it easy on me. Sotsona laughs and mocks Casimir by pouting her lips back at him. She speaks in a sarcastic way. Sotsona Line 7) Aw~ Did I hurt your wittle feelings? Casimir gives Sotsona a weirded-out expression as well, finally understanding how Sotsona perceived his antic. He speaks in an awkward manner. Casimir Line 8) Thanks for the wake up call, I suppose. Sotsona laughs. Line 9) Casimir’s inner thoughts: Wow. Is that how I’ve been acting around her all this time? Line 10) Casimir’s inner thoughts: I’m too grown to be acting like a fool. I need to pull myself together. Line 11) Casimir’s inner thoughts: At least she thinks it’s funny. Their baking instructor gets started on the lesson. Instructor Line 12) For starters, we’ll be baking chocolate chips cookies. Instructor Line 13) Although, it may sound easy, it’s a recipe that could easily get messed up. So pay close attention. The instructor demonstrates the cooking process to everyone attending the class, showcasing the steps to them through a projector filming her every move. Instructor Line 14) To a bowl, add 2 cups of flour. Everyone in the class does as the instructor says. Instructor Line 15) When it comes to baking, having the precise measurements is key, so try to level everything out in a calculative manner. The instructor goes on to discuss the other ingredients needed, and they follow all her instructions. Everyone finishes, and all that’s left is for the cookies to bake. Sotsona approaches Casimir’s station beside her. Sotsona Line 16) How are your cookies coming along? Casimir boastfully replies. Casimir Line 17) I think everything is going pretty well. All that’s left is to try them and see how they taste. Sotsona glances at Casimir’s cookies baking in the oven at his cooking station. She happily replies. Sotsona Line 18) They sure look like they’ll turn out nicely. Casimir responds skeptically. Casimir Line 19) What’s with the switch up? I thought you were being sassy to me today. Sotsona responds in confusion. Sotsona Line 20) What? I was just giving you a reality check earlier. Sotsona LIne 21) However, I do mean what I said when I asked you if I hurt your feelings*. *Refer to line 7 of this episode. Sotsona Line 22) Are you still bummed out from that? Casimir Line 23) Obviously not. It’s just took note of your demeanor. Casimir Line 24) Ever since we last saw each other, you've gotten bolder. Casimir Line 25) Congrats on that, I guess. Sotsona’s face flushes red immensely. She responds to Casimir in a flustered manner. Sotsona Line 26) Why do you always point out things that are meant to be dismissed? Sotsona Line 27) Bringing it up, just makes it awkward for the both of us. Sotsona Line 28) If it’s something you noticed, keep it to yourself. Casimir notices Sotsona’s flustered demeanor. He nods his head in understandment. Line 29) Casimir’s inner thoughts: Ah. It must be embarrassing for her if I point out the obvious. Casimir smiles in adoration, finding Sotsona’s reaction cute. Line 30) Casimir’s inner thoughts: She’s so strange. She’s the one who decided to act bolder, yet she’s all flustered about it. Casimir Line 31) Let me see your cookies. The both of them walk over to Sotsona’s station and look at her oven, seeing her cookies baking while they are scattered on a tray. Casimir speaks in a confident manner. Casimir Line 32) Not to be cocky, but I feel like my cookies will turn out better. Sotsona replies in a playful manner. Sotsona Line 33) Don’t get too ahead of yourself. How will you feel when you realize your wrong? Sotsona Line 34) I won’t let you hear the end of it. Casimir continues to speak in a confident manner. Casimir Line 35) I’m not wrong. Wanna know why? Sotsona raises her eyebrows and tilts her head to the side in curiosity, wondering what kind of weird excuse Casimir will give her this time. Casimir Line 36) I added a special ingredient to mine that yours is missing. Sotsona looks at Casimir in confusion. Sotsona Line 37) And that is? Casimir moves his hand, signaling for Sotsona to come closer to him. She complies and Casimir whispers in her ear, speaking in an affectionate tone. Casimir Line 38) Love. Sotsona blushes immensely as Casimir’s remark sends pleasant shivers down her spine. Casimir teasingly looks at her and smiles. Sotsona speaks in a shy manner. Sotsona Line 39) We’re in public. Why are you making me feel so flustered? Casimir Line 40) I dance like no one’s watching. You should give it a try too. Sotsona speaks in a defensive manner. Sotsona Line 41) W-Well, guess what? You’re still wrong about my cookies. Sotsona Line 42) Who said it was missing love? Casimir blushes, not anticipating for Sotsona to strike him with a come back. He speaks in a curious manner. Casimir Line 43) W-What kind of love is in yours? Sotsona Line 44) What a weird question to ask. Isn’t it obvious? Casimir’s face flushes red, letting his assumptions get the best of him (he thinks that Sotsona is saying her cookies are made with the love she has for him). Sotsona speaks teasingly. Sotsona Line 45) Obviously my love for sweets. What else would it be? Casimir looks at Sotsona in disappointment. Sotsona Line 46) What about yours? Casimir speaks in a defeated tone, wanting to make Sotsona feel bad for him. Casimir Line 47) Oh, just the love left in my heart after it was shattered to pieces by you. Sotsona playfully rolls her eyes. Sotsona Line 48) Guilt tripping, are we? Casimir folds his arms and looks away from Sotsona playfully. All of their cookies finish baking and are taken out of the oven to cool. Instructor Line 49) Give the cookies around ten minutes to cool, and they should be all set and ready to eat. The cooling time goes by, with everyone excitedly getting ready to try their cookies. Casimir brings a plate of his cookies over to Sotsona’s station. Casimir Line 50) You try mine and I’ll try yours. Sotsona speaks in a cocky tone. Sotsona Line 51) Fine, then. But don’t expect a pleasant reaction. Casimir teases Sotsona. Casimir Line 52) You liar. I can see your mouth watering. I know you’re just dying to get a taste. They try each other’s cookies and give their feedback. Casimir replies in a blunt manner, giving his honest opinion. Casimir Line 53) They’re not bad. I’ve definitely had better though. Sotsona Line 54) Wow. Look who’s being harsh now? I was going to say that your cookies taste amazing. Casimir replies in a playfully skeptical manner. Casimir Line 55) You’re just now saying that to make me feel bad. I know you were going to say you hated them. Sotsona playfully shrugs her shoulders. Casimir and Sotsona try their own cookies. Sotsona replies in a confused tone. Sotsona Line 56) How could they taste so different even though they were prepared the exact same way? Casimir speaks in a cocky manner. Casimir Line 57) Well, duh. I already told you that mine was made with love. Of course, it’ll taste differently. Sotsona playfully rolls her eyes. Casimir Line 58) Do you want to get a third opinion? Sotsona Line 59) Why? Do you really have to know whose is better that badly? Casimir Line 60) Don’t make it sound that way. I just want a third opinion to decipher a verdict under some conditions for us. Sotsona speaks in a skeptical tone. Sotsona Line 61) And, what could those conditions be? Casimir speaks jokingly. Casimir Line 62) The conditions of a bet. Sotsona smirks. Sotsona Line 63) Why do we always duel each other out this way*? *Sotsona is referring to that one time they raced each other under a bet (refer back to episode 54, details starting on line 5, etc). Casimir Line 64) Because if we don’t, neither of us will admit to anything that needs to be said. Casimir looks Sotsona up and down, putting her on the spot. Sotsona speaks in a flustered manner. Sotsona Line 65) How will this bet be coordinated. Casimir Line 66) We’ll ask a third person for their opinion on which cookie they think is better… Casimir Line 67) The better batch of cookies is the winner. The runner-up must confess to anything the winner desires to know. Sotsona blushes. Line 68) Sotsona’s inner thoughts: I should’ve known that Casimir would have suspected something by now. He’s just that attentive. Casimir Line 69) What do you say? Is it a deal? Casimir extends his hand out to Sotsona for a shake. Sotsona playfully rolls her eyes. Line 70) Sotsona’s inner thoughts: I guess he’s bound to know sooner or later. So, why keep it in any further? Sotsona Line 71) You’re on. They firmly shake each other’s hand, sealing their bet. Their baking instructor walks by them. She speaks in a cheerful manner. Instructor Line 72) How did the both of your cookies turn out? Sotsona Line 73) Why don’t you try each of ours? We’re competing against each other. Instructor Line 74) Oh really? Then I’ll give each of you my honest opinion. The instructor tries both of their cookies. The instructor speaks proudly. Instructor Line 75) Let me just start off by praising the both of you for doing such a great job. Instructor Line 76) Each batch is amazing. Give yourselves a pat on the back. Instructor Line 77) But… I’ll have to say that this batch is better. The instructor points to Sotsona’s batch. Sotsona speaks in a cheerful manner. Sotsona Line 78) Thank you for letting me know~ Sotsona boastfully smirks at Casimir. Line 79) Sotsona’s inner thoughts: I bet he knows what I’ll be asking him to confess to. Instructor Line 80) Don’t be discouraged. I’m sure you can redeem yourself when we bake cakes. Casimir and Sotsona look at the instructor in confusion. Instructor Line 81) What? Did you guys not know that’s what we’ll be doing next? The instructor gets started on teaching the attendants in the class how to bake a cake. Sotsona and Casimir cook in their separate stations, following the instructor’s orders. They bake their cakes and whip up some frosting. After letting their fully baked cakes chill in a cooler, they start applying the frosting in increments, making sure to get a smooth layer on. After successfully applying the frosting, they decorate their cakes, adding finishing touches. Sotsona happily presents her cake to Casimir, walking over to his station with it in her grasp. He covers his cake with his back, wanting the reveal to be a surprise. Sotsona Line 82) What do you think? Casimir proudly smiles. Casimir Line 83) It looks really good. Well done. Sotsona Line 84) Show me yours. Casimir moves out of the way, proudly revealing his cake to Sotsona. She looks at the cake in shock, not anticipating an amazing outcome. She speaks in a defeated tone. Sotsona Line 85) You cheater. You’ve baked a cake before, haven't you? Casimir speaks in a genuine manner. Casimir Line 86) No. This is my first time. Sotsona speaks in a playfully skeptical manner. Sotsona Line 87) Then how does yours look better than mine? Casimir smugly responds. Casimir Line 88) I’m starting to sound like a broken record because I’ve already told you countless times that I did it with love. Sotsona playfully rolls her eyes. Sotsona Line 89) Sure, presentation is one thing… But how does it taste? Casimir speaks in a cocky manner. Casimir Line 90) It’s birthday cake flavor, so obviously good. Sotsona Line 91) Well, mine is chocolate, so you have some competition. Casimir and Sotsona try each other’s cakes. Their faces show expressions of satisfaction from the taste of the cakes. Sotsona speaks in an authentic manner. Sotsona Line 92) I’m being honest when I say this, yours is really good. Casimir Line 93) So is yours. The cream pairs well with the cake. It’s also nice and moist on the inside and not overly sweet. Sotsona Line 94) But we still should ask the instructor. Casimir speaks in a playful manner. Casimir Line 95) I see that the bet is still on? Sotsona Line 96) Yes. With the same conditions you laid out earlier too. Casimir Line 97) What will happen if you win this again? Sotsona Line 98) Then you’ll have to spill your guts tenfold. The instructor walks by them again. Instructor Line 99) Is the competition still on? Would you guys like my opinion again? Sotsona and Casimir eagerly nods their heads. The instructor tries both of their cakes. Her eyes widen in shock from the amazing flavors. Instructor Line 100) This was not an easy decision to make. Instructor Line 101) Baking a cake is definitely harder than baking cookies, so make sure you aren’t disappointed with your results from me. Instructor Line 102) But I’ll have to say that the birthday cake is better than the chocolate one. Casimir happily celebrates his win. Casimir Line 103) Thanks for letting us know~ The instructor bids them goodbye and walks to the other cooking attendants’ cakes. Casimir playfully bumps shoulders with Sotsona. Casimir Line 104) Oh how the tables have turned~ Casimir Line 105) I guess I’m not the only one that’ll be spilling my guts today. Casimir speaks in a flirtatiously competitive manner. Casimir Line 106) I’m onto you. Sotsona blushes. End of episode. © 2024 YoshAuthor's Note
