K-kittycat?! [Oh no. That's... a really cute nickname for Shoka.] D-do you think she would? Gosh, maybe she would use her scary Ghost powers on them? A hundred shadowy tendrils chasing them off and holding onto me protectively or something, fahaha... [She's getting into this fantasy.]

[loopsiedaisy]

[Oh no. Oh no they're delighted by this.]

[And also maybe feeling a little bit wistful... but for once, not in a bad way?]

Maybe you should get a little bit stolen away. Just to make sure she uses her scariest Ghost powers.

[Belatedly, they have the thought that maybe Noelle would enjoy some of Mirabelle's books...]

[holidaygirl1225]

[Her ears: perked up. Her fur: standing on end. Her face: burning hot. (Though maybe the blush isn't visible through the fur.)]

You think she would?! [Agh! She was so stupid, 'having a mental breakdown' when she ran away instead of spying on all the cool ghost stuff that Shoka must have been doing!!!!!] I mean, I wouldn't want to put her through something like that again but just a little bit would be fine right? No, no, I couldn't, haha. [Calm down, Noelle. Remember the cookies.

Right, the cookies. She imagines Shoka absorbing one of them into her shadows and chewing on it with many teeth and fangs and the cookie being completely obliterated from the universe and--]

[The blush is totally visible through the fur. Not as red, mind, but only being able to see shades means they're a bit more sensitive to changes in those, and they can see her face growing darker...]

You need a little bit of drama for a really good romance, right?

[That's plays, Siffrin.]

[(It's hard to tell how seriously they're suggesting this...)]

^{I mean I wouldn't call it a romance or anything like I mean like sweet stocking stuffers I'm such a mess and she's way too cool for me you know I mean of course you know you're like her best friend and--}

[She has not inhaled once.]

[A breath.]

Seriously, though, cut it out, fahaha! Stop teasing me already!

[loopsiedaisy]

I don't know what you mean!!

[But distraction successful??]

[As Noelle finishes up the dough and gets a tray ready, Pignite returns to rotate some batches in and out of ovens. He looks at the counter in passing, noticing a bag that's still sitting there, and pauses.] Mismagius hasn't picked up her order yet...

[He sounds a little worried.]

[holidaygirl1225]

[Thank gosh, a distraction! Noelle sounds a little too eager to get out of the hot kitchen.] W-we can go check on her!

["Really? You're such an angel," Pignite says. Noelle's face instantly falls. "It must be the fog. You should go together to avoid getting lost out there."]

[loopsiedaisy]

[Siffrin deposits the container of icing they were working with on the counter, swapping it for Mismagius's order. Might as well deliver it while they're checking, right? And a delivery job with a single location does sound like something they'd be better at than trying to recall ingredients... so they're game.]

Where are we going?

[The answer is... confusing. Just past the Canopy...? Siffrin's been all over the forest near there - sure, the fog shuffles directions around, but wouldn't they remember something like a hut out there?]

[...okay, maybe they're answering their own question. Who knows!! Instead of saying anything about it, they lick their paw - making a face at a stray spatter of icing (sugary, yuck) - and go with a different comment:] Doesn't sound far!

[Picking the bag up in their mouth, they trot toward the door, shoving it open with their shoulder and holding it for Noelle to catch up.]
