[ The video feed shows stacks of boxes—noticeably to the observant, they're white pastry boxes. A hand lifts one of the lids and then gestures at the contents. ]

I don't know who thought I needed thirty-eight dozen donuts.

I'm having them delivered to the mess hall. If you want one make sure and ask—there's plenty available.

I took a box of donuts back to your room. I hope I guessed your favorites right.

[Have a curious bot, miss.]

Is that human fuel?

[He's never seen anything like it, it looks strange and yet...delicious? A part of him wishes he could try it, but that'd probably be a bad idea.]

It's kind of like human fuel. Except it's meant to taste good a lot more than it's meant to be nutritious.

[He can't help a curious little smile.]

And...how would you describe the taste?

[Try? Please? For this curious bot.]

Oh, well, there's more to the experience of eating a donut than just the taste, you know. First of all, they're thick and chewy, and when you bite into them they have kind of a slight crunch on the outside from the sugar. Then they get softer in your mouth as you chew. And of course, they're sweet. Very sweet. A lot of these have fruit on them which means they have a nice burst of berry flavor or whatever is on top.

[The way his mouth moves it's clear he's trying to imagine the textures and tastes.]

And what kind of flavor is "berry"?

what's a donut because they look delicious

They're pastries. Fried dough with sugar on them. I haven't tried one of these in particular but I think they probably are pretty good.

would i die if i ate more than a dozen of them?

I don't think instant diabetes is a thing, so no.

then that's my plan
the mail here is so strange

[He can't help but sound surprised.] Thirty-eight dozen? Really?

I saved a dozen, so yeah. That's what's left.

That's certainly excessive. I hope you'll keep a bit of a watch, wouldn't want anyone getting themselves sick by overindulging.

If some idiot wants to stuff his face with donuts, that's their own idiocy at play. Besides, KK is in charge of the mess, not me.

Now if you're talking about the dozen I saved, well. I've already told my boyfriend not to eat too many. But he's an adult.

You have all the angles covered. [Grinning.]

I have to wonder why you were given so many though.

They look sweet. Are they? Are they like the muffins they used to have in the coffee place here?

[She misses Allison giving her baked goods.]

I'm not going to disparage anyone's muffins, but these are definitely sweeter than those.

Sweeter? [And she thought the deserts from the mess were a sugar overload.] Huh. Are any of those chocolate?

I'm not actually sure. I mostly noticed that a lot of them had fresh fruit on top. I think some of them were maple and chocolate swirled or something though.

[She lets out a low whistle.]

Fresh fruit and everythin'? Somebody musta really liked you. Mmm, guess I'll come get some anyway, if you're just givin' 'em up.

[His tone is slightly teasing, or at least insinuating.]

Only a box? I could have frozen some.

What kinds did you think would be my favorites?

The ones with berries on top. I got some of the other kinds too, though. Did you really expect me to freeze half of them for you?

Maybe not half...

[But you know, at least a gross: donuts for days. It may be hard to tell whether or not he's joking.]

Did you get any with chocolate frosting? I like those too.

Pssh. You underestimate me. Of course I did.

You can fit more than a dozen in a box, too, you know.

Yes. But then you crush them.

How many did you fit into this box? Should I go look? It seems quite possible that Ploiatos has found some way to eat them since then.
