... I was not keeping track.

[ he didn't even attempt to keep track ]

[fishingforcompliments]

...

I suppose all we can do is wait.

[preowned]

Should we try another batch?

[fishingforcompliments]

I suppose it could not hurt, seeing as we have time on our hands.

[preowned]

This time we should probably try to make less.

[ he's learning(?) ]

[fishingforcompliments]

Perhaps we ought to try just one, to begin with, and if we get it right we can make a larger batch? Then we will waste fewer ingredients.

[preowned]

That sounds like a good idea.

[ the braincell is still hanging on ]

Now for... the ingredients...

[fishingforcompliments]

Perhaps we chose the wrong things. The consistency did not seem quite right...

[preowned]

That could be it. Let's go look at the supplies again...

[ he is not sure what the right things are ]

[fishingforcompliments]

[the emotional whiplash between current tags and backtags is so real]

Yes...

[shuffling over to the pantry! ...hm.]

Oh... this says baking powder, and this says baking soda. [she's looking at two different things] Are we meant to use them?

[preowned]

[ haha. yea :)

but hm. he looks between the two. ]

Isn't soda a type of beverage?

[fishingforcompliments]

[shakes the baking soda]

Yes, but this does not sound like a liquid...

[preowned]

Perhaps... it's what is used to make it bubble?

[fishingforcompliments]

...that may be it.

[no??????]

[preowned]

In that case... maybe we should use the poweder?

[fishingforcompliments]

Very well! We shall give it a try.

[snags some baking powder]

[preowned]

And... let's try using less of the chips this time, as well, to save some for later.

[ what else... ]

[fishingforcompliments]

...perhaps we should simply use a little less of everything?

[preowned]

Yes... that would be for the best.

[ this is going to end in a different kind of problem but it's fine. ]

[fishingforcompliments]

[smash cut to them pulling one thin burnt cookie crisp out of the oven]

Well! Let us try to mix it, then. Perhaps we should do the mixing in a smaller bowl.

[preowned]

It would give us less chances to mess up.

[ hm, he wonders if there is anything else they might mess up on... ]

[fishingforcompliments]

This is true! And if we do need to attempt it again, that gives us more chances to succeed, as well.

[preowned]

I believe that all of our hard work will eventually be rewarded.

[fishingforcompliments]

Yes! And everyone will have to praise us for being the astoundingly skilled chefs we are!

[preowned]

[ they keep thinking this and it never works ]

We can try a cake next.
