Mito/Natsume/Suzume's birthday 2019 - 3

Birthday, thinking about feelings - 3

[Sanshuu Middle - rooftop]

Mit: We successfully told them, so now it's time to think about what we're going to do.

Nat: If we're treating everyone, it should be something fancy...

Suz: But it'd be hard to do something large-scale with just us three.

Everyone: Hmm...

Mit: Oh yeah, the cake Akihara-san and Takashima-san made was really tasty, wasn't it?

Nat: Yeah, it was delicious... Even though there wasn't any seafood in it.

Suz: Well yeah, cakes don't normally have any. But you're right, if the two of them could do that...

Mit: Even we should be able to!

Nat: You're right.

Mit: Then why don't we make a tasty cake that won't lose to theirs and serve it to everyone?

Nat: Agreed...

[Home Ec room]

Mit: First we should decide on what cake we're going to make. I brought a bunch of books on cake-making from the library.

Suz: Waah, these all look delicious! Strawberry's good, but chocolate cake is nice too.

Nat: There are so many varieties I can't pick just one...

Mit: Then let's think about it while baking a sponge.

Suz: Yeah, if we're going to treat everyone in the club, we're going to have to bake a lot!

Nat: Yeah... Let's bake a lot and make a giant cake.

Mit: Kagajou-san, you're great at whipping.

Suz: I made a cake for Mebu and Fuu-san's birthday last month, so. [1]

Suz: *humming* This is surpsingly fun to do once you get the hang of it.

Nat: Suzume, it's dangerous to work without looking at your hands...

Suz: Don't worry, don't worry. It's a total cinch, chirp.

Nat: Ah... Now you've done it.

Suz: No, it wasn't me...

Mit: I-I'm sorry! I was pouring the batter into the mould but then an oracle came and surprised me...

Suz: Are you okay? Not hurt or anything?

Mit: I'm fine. But what are we going to do... Our batter... I'm so sorry.

Nat: Raise your head. We can just make the batter again. What's important is that you weren't hurt, Mito.

Suz: Yeah, that's the most important part. So Mito-san, what was the oracle?

Mit: The Vertexes have appeared again.

Suz: Oh come on, they had to come at a time like this!?

Mit: I'll remake the batter myself, so you two please get ready for battle.

Nat: Okay. We'll help you clean up when we're back. Wait for us, there's no rush.

Nat: Suzume, let's go...
