[ fuck no... Hijikata NEVER plays around, even that just now wasn't even him playing? he wasn't playing at all... no... he doesn't even know how to have fun? geez! he just wanted sweet revenge, even for a few minutes. although it didn't last long, and if Hijikata tried to go for it again... Tsuru just wouldn't stop, then they'd waste the entire cake. he knows how Tsuru works. he knows! ]

You say that, but every time you do I find it harder to believe.

[ slight sarcasm.

okay but it's the moment of truth. trying the cake: icing and everything. the way it's arrange does make it look rather pretty, it's almost a shame they have to eat it! but that's what food is for anyway...

also please don't cut the cake with Horikawa, Hijikata would get upset.

he takes the bite of the cake, eating the piece in silence. once he swallows there's a small not- he's satisfied! ]

I don't remember the last time I had a cake.. It's good.

[ honestly, lord... when did he have a cake? honestly, it probably wasn't even baked like a birthday cake... he's had sponge cake- he thinks? details, details. ]
