They're perfectly fine! [but they do turn to fetch cinnamon and butter before rooting around for a tray to put the buns on when they're ready for the oven.]
Paranoid, all of them. [it sounds a little amused though.] I don't think there's anything wrong with trying to find something brighter in all of this. I believe some of them may even need it.
[she doesn't notice, but gemini does. they also, smartly, do not point it out just in case.]
Happiness is fleeting, I think. That would be why it's important to find our own and find ways to hold onto it. I suppose the hardest is generating happiness for yourself by yourself.
[that's a good idea, honestly. she's now shaping the cinnamon rolls - only, she does push the bowl over to gemini.]
If you're lucky, you never have to do it yourself. [a beat.] I really rely on other people a lot for that. Not that I'm useless on my own or anything, because I'm not, I just, uh.
I'm made up of happy memories of the people I love.
[a beat.] Go wash your hands and then help me make these.
[the bowl is pushed and they seem to stare at it.]
I understand. Some people are simply better with others. But I...do hope that you will be able to do things on your own as needed. It's a hard thing to do when all of your happiest memories involve people you care for, but it's just as important to be able to do both.
[but they shut up and go to wash their hands. lup gets a peek at clawed handsies but not much else seeing how they almost immediately put new gloves on.]

[she is mixing ingredients...] We can have the best ones, and then leave the rest out for scavengers.

...it is a kind thought though.

The people from the station won't. [christian cake!] But, um. I don't know, is it dumb to try and inject a little joy to balance out all the awful?

I could use a little happiness. I got some Saturday, I guess, but it didn't last very long.

How does this work?
no subject
she just watches them do this with a slightly amused look.]
You just do it like this. [and she shows them how to make a cinnamon roll idk how to and its past my bedtime so imagine she does it real good]
... I can survive just fine on my own. By the way. I just don't like to. [...] It's harder. Because of what I am.

I appreciate the reassurance, don't get me wrong. It's very sweet of you. [...] Good job on the rolls, too.

You big on truth? [teasing... she's going to put the rolls in the oven in a sec here.]
