13th Adventure

[Action A - Household, 7135 Brooks: Your kitchen is a total wreck today. Hurricane Aurora has passed though in an attempt to bake. There's flour everywhere, ingredients scattered, pots and pans overflowing the sink. The master baker herself is hovering (literally!) in the kitchen, looking over a recipe book. Her hair is tied up high on her head (as best as it could be), her apron has more flour on it than is probably used in recipes, and she's deep in thought as she mutters what she's reading aloud. ]

Let's see... oh no, did I add a tablespoon of the salt, or sugar?

[Being a ghost cook is suffering.]

[Action B: Brooks Street Out in front of their house, Aurora has set up a lovely little bake sale stand! It's decorated with colorful signs and flowers and streamers, and Aurora herself is all cleaned up and perfectly dressed. But the baked goods... Well, maybe they don't look as nice, but Aurora looks very excited for people to try them.

Here's the thing. Sometimes she got the recipe right. Sometimes she didn't. Maybe you got a good brownie or cookie, or maybe you didn't. Try at your own risk!]

[Action C - 1648 Albright Lane: There's a knock at the door! It's Aurora, looking a bit anxious and worried. She's carrying a small container of cookies, and she's looking to speak with Abel. Privately.]

[Aurora looks horrified.] Wh-what? They're not good?

[dumbfabric]

well it's not that they're bad it's just that they're not ..... good

[Sweetie Belle is a terrible liar.]

I'm sorry, maybe you can join me when Pinkie Pie teaches me how to bake, I bet that would help.

[forever_cheery]

I guess so. I really thought I had it down this time!

[dumbfabric]

I'm sorry I didn't mean to be mean, you shouldn't stop trying though. People keep telling me to stop trying to find my talent but I won't. So you shouldn't stop baking either I'm sure you'll get it right eventually.

[forever_cheery]

I know, it's okay! I just need to practice more. I don't really know much about cooking or baking yet, but I've been really trying since I've gotten here.

[dumbfabric]

Well maybe you should try something else. Whenever me and my friends fail at something we just find a new thing to do. That way you can find what you like quicker.

[forever_cheery]

You think so? I shouldn't just practice more?

[dumbfabric]

Well I always thought that I would know immediately when I found my talent, isn't that how it works?

[forever_cheery]

I don't think so? I thought you had to practice to get good at things.

[dumbfabric]

Everyone tells me to practice, but that takes too much, and I need my cutie mark now. I don't want to be the last pony to get it that would be so embarrassing.

Do you have your cutie mark yet Aurora?
