Knowing her, I think she wouldn't want to make it anything special...?
[Especially she was already a tsundere. If he dared try to make it anymore special, he was afraid he might get a scolding from her at how he didn't need to do this. Scratching the side of his head, he really didn't know how to go about this.]
...Although, do you know how to make frosting by scratch?
[...Yeah, about that. He thinks he might have made... icing?? Once? But man, he'd never even had an oven until moving into the dorm, and then quickly moved back out of the dorm so....]
Not. Really. I mean I kind of got an idea, but....
[He just makes home meals ok that's basically it. Aki talks him up, sure, but that's because Akihiko is fucking useless at feeding himself so anything is amazing. But baking can't be too dissimilar from that? Right?
...Between Kotone asking him to try and distinguish types of dry beans visually and Ken hoping he could make a whole-ass birthday cake without a recipe, people sure have a lot of faith in his skills in the kitchen. Maybe this other version of himself was just... better.]
...if we can't figure it out, then someone can probably help. There's probably a bakery or something we could ask. Worst case, melt some chocolate over it and call it a day.
I think that'll be fine? I don't think she'll be the type to mind as long as she gets a cake.
[At least, he hopes so! But in the back of his mind, he was starting to worry that she might not like it and that he was going to regret this. However, it was too late the back out now as he gave a mumble or two.]
...If not, I think we can always ask Kotone-san for help? I think she's better at baking than the both of us.
[When worse comes to worse, always ask the leader for help!]
We can definitely get the cake part down. If it was like... bread or a whole-ass pastry or something I'd tell you to try someone else. So we probably won't have to bother Kotone about it.
[And maybe a part of him is just a bit desperate not to let Ken down yet again.]
Anyway, I think I got everything I need. We can start whenever you want.

[And yet, in the back of his mind, there was some fear in knowing that they could accidentally destroy the kitchen. Hopefully, it wouldn't be too bad.
With that, he gestured Shinjiro toward the direction of her place.]
