[Lucas has been experimenting with some different baking techniques it seems. When the video comes on he isn't wearing that signature hat of his, and even his face is smeared with what seems like flour or dough. He has a wooden spoon in his hand that he waves around from time to time as he talks.]

Is anyone here really good at baking? I've been experimenting with different ways of making poffins, ones that look exactly like certain Pokemon to be exact.

[He reaches to grab one and shows it to the camera. Uwah it resembles a Shinx!]

Well? What do you think? Is it too much?

[ She sounds rather better than the last time they talked. ]

I'm not that much good with baking, but I could still try to help you.

[ Looking at the poffin. ] Hm, that one looks nice.

[Audio]

[fortitudo]

[Lucas sounds better too of course.]

Oh thanks! I'm trying all different kinds! I'd love some help.

[Voice]

[needsmoregreen]

I don't think so, I think it looks really cool!

You'll have to teach me how you did that!

[Voice]

[fortitudo]

Come on, you don't even know how to make poffins?

[TEASING A BIT.]

[Voice]

[linkedtogod]

Too much in what way--design?

[Voice]

[needsmoregreen]

Well...maybe a little?

[If you don't count the times she burnt them]

But they're not as great as yours so you still have to teach me!

[digifan]

I don't know if I'll be any help, but my Mom and Dad are bakers so I can bake bread. [....] Um, kind of. I help out sometimes.

[Though he looks slightly perplexed. Are poffins a type of bread? They look similar enough!]

But you said that's a Pokemon, right? What kind is it?

[Voice]

[fortitudo]

I don't have a problem with that at all!

Want to come to Poketopia and I'll help you?

[Voice]

[fortitudo]

Something like that, do you like it though?

[fortitudo]

[aw yes baker and baker time.]

Oh you know about Pokemon....? [a pause.] Well I guess with all the trainers around here with Pokemon it's only natural others would know.

It's a Shinx!

[Voice]

[linkedtogod]

If I knew what it was. [ He can only say it looks interesting. ] What is it made of?

[fortitudo]

Basically it's.... kind of like.... hmmm

[a donut? a cookie?]

If I said it's made out of love.... would you believe me? [THE SECRETS OF A BAKER.]

[linkedtogod]

[ Hm.

Or like a cake even? He only caught a glimpse of it. ]

I would partially believe you. [ These secrets, he knows them too. Hence his curiosity. ]

[fortitudo]

Aw too bad...

[he shrugs a bit.]

Anyways! It's just like a pastry, both Pokemon and humans can eat them.

[linkedtogod]

What are Pokemon?

[ After a pause. ] It needs love and sensibility to work. One without the other would be like too much sugar or too much salt.

[ LUCAS YOU MOE..!! Don't mind Asahi here just staring all starry-eyed, she can't handle all these moes around here. Got to hug them all. ]

That's adorable..!

video.

[inncinerate]

Oh, it's so cute.. but how's it taste?

[ yukiko no don't give baking advice stop ]

[Audio]

[burntviolet]

When would you like me to come over then? I'm sort of free today...

[Voice]

[needsmoregreen]

Yea, sure! Just tell me when you're free because I don't have to work today!

[fortitudo]

Whenever! I'll be waiting for you.

[fortitudo]

Come right now! I'll be waiting.

[fortitudo]

Er....

[Lucas switches to video now, and he's just moving a bit over to grab something. He comes back with a Pokeball.]

They're this. [and he opens it up and out pops his Darkrai, that ghost-like Pokemon floating behind him.]

Oh... that's some good advice, yeah! [...Darkrai is reaching around Lucas to go for the poffin now...]

[fortitudo]

[the most moe!]

Isn't it? I worked really hard on it.

video.

[fortitudo]

[...he's oblivious to what she's capable of.]

It tastes really good! I made this one to be more sweet, but I can make different kinds that are sour or spicy, or whatever.

[needsmoregreen]

All right then, I'll see you there!

[And off Bianca goes to the store! She'll be there before you even know it!]
