[If anyone were to walk past the Home Economics room, they might be able to catch the faint scent of something burning. It is, in fact, M'gann's first batch of cookies which have suffered a most unfortunate fate. Despite having mastered the recipe of chocolate chip cookies, M'gann isn't exactly in the right state of mind at the moment, her mind too

[Since it's only roughly been a day since the gossip BBS had gone up, any avoidance M'gann had attempted to do had been lost on Conner. He had been left unsure and confused even of the 'news' about M'gann; they were friends, she had made the cupcakes and baked goodies for everyone and not just him. It was something he had refused to believe... and even now, still he refuses. It just seems too far-fetched despite the 'moments' they had shared in Bialya and in the Cave

[hellomgann]

Oh! What about them? Did you like them? Because if you liked them I can always bake more; there are some more recipes that I've been wanting to try. In fact, I can make them right after these cookies if you'd like!

[Oh yeah, nervous rambling is a go.]

[genomorphed]

[Saying her name usually works to cut through the rambling...]

M'gann. Stop.

[hellomgann]

[That shuts her up. M'gann hesitates, then looks up with a sheepish smile.]

Sorry about that.

[genomorphed]

[Mumbles:] ...it's fine. [And then, awkwardly:] Was it... uh- true?

[hellomgann]

Was what true? [Yep, she's going to keep playing dumb.]

[genomorphed]

[Conner can't help but frown now.] ...what they had said.

[hellomgann]

What who said?

[genomorphed]

[This is going nowhere and beginning to frustrate him. It shows as his jaw tightens.]

The post.

[hellomgann]

Oh.

[Oh no, oh no! He has seen it. M'gann is inwardly curling up into a ball of embarrassment, and she tries her best to keep her cool on the exterior.]

We make those cupcakes for class, remember? We just made too many so I decided to give them away to anyone who wanted one.

[genomorphed]

[That isn't even what he's talking about!]

And... for me?

[hellomgann]

Well, you're my baking partner! Of course some of the cupcakes were for you.

[genomorphed]

[A small frown but Conner looks away.]

Baking partner...

[What is this weird feeling of disappointment and dissatisfaction?]

[hellomgann]

And friend, of course!

[genomorphed]

Friend...

Baking partner and friend.

[hellomgann]

Yes...?

Is there something wrong?
