October 15th, earlier morning; [0300ish] > Private to Yuri

[Cellphone]

S'early, I know. Can we talk?

October 15th, early morning; [0400]

[Action/Audio]

[Levi had happened to glance at the calendar on his way to his morning workout, and stopped short. October 15th? That meant... He swore low under his breath, for forgetting, before marching right up to the PA room. He remembered Yuri talking about this vaguely once, and he locks the door behind him. After a few tries getting it to work, he manages to hit the right button and begins;]

Hey fuckers, wake up. Emergency party planning in the mess hall ASAP.

Ichigo, you especially. We gotta bake a cake or some shit.

{ooc: The Party Log is up!}

Ichigo!

[He's not just going to barge into her room..... yet....]

Wake. The Fuck. Up.

[strawberrytart]

[ The word fuck isn't in her dreams, that's kind of weird...

She looks over at the door, eyes half lidded, and makes a kind of confused sound. ]

Hn..?

[springcleaning]

It's Levi. You gotta make a cake fast, it's an emergency.

[That's... way more ridiculous sounding than he thought it would be.]

[strawberrytart]

[ That wakes her up!!! At least a little bit. She rushes to the door, looking fiercely determined for being in a pink, fluffy nightgown with her hair in pigtails. ]

What do we need a cake for?

[springcleaning]

[Tiny girl in cute pajamas. Good thing Levi's Stone Cold or he may have been embarrassed.]

[He does look away to give her some privacy though.]

My commander, Erwin Smith. Her birthday was yesterday and I fuckin' forgot.

[strawberrytart]

What flavor do you want?

[ She can definitely get a cake made within a couple of hours, but she needs to know what kind he wants. ]

[springcleaning]

Nothin' too sweet... he likes nuts and dates and shit like that though. He's been to Sina more often than us, so he's had food like that.

[Levi you used to run the underground in Sina, don't lie.]

[strawberrytart]

[ She thinks for a moment, then decides to that she should make something everyone can have. ]

Have you tried opera cake before?

[springcleaning]

What's in it? I been to an opera, it was shitty.

[strawberrytart]

Almond sponge cake, coffee butter cream, and dark chocolate ganache.

[springcleaning]

Sounds too fancy for him.

[strawberrytart]

It would've been pretty quick to make, but we can make something easier too. How about a strawberries and cream cake?

[springcleaning]

That sounds simpler. Dunno about that sweet though...

[strawberrytart]

We can use shortcake and tart strawberries to make sure it's not that sweet.

[springcleaning]

Then I'm game. I gotta have the party quick, so it won't take hours or nothin', right?

[strawberrytart]

No, it'll be pretty quick! I can probably manage in about.. 2 hours?

[ It'd be faster if she had a blast freezer, but since she has to wait for the cakes to cool before she can put the cream on.. ]

[springcleaning]

It's about 0500, so I guess we have a lot of time. Lunch might be better for it, really....

[H-he was worried about making it nice, okay.......]

[strawberrytart]

That's plenty of time then! Do you want me to make anything else?

[springcleaning]

Dunno.... I mean, not sure what you do exactly at a big birthday bash or whatever, I ain't never had one.

[strawberrytart]

I'm not exactly 100% sure either.. what they do at adult parties, anyway. Hehe.. I've only really been to parties for younger people!

[ Like little kids mostly and hanging out with her friends. ]

[springcleaning]

You dunno neither? Shit...

[strawberrytart]

Well it's not like I ever got old enough to do anything other than serve food at parties. I went to a ball once, though it was in a dress made entirely of chocolate since it was part of the Cake Grand Prix.
