The process had been interesting. Cooking a cake was one thing, doing it while your weapon sat on the counter babbling with you and causing trouble made it even harder. The kitchen would be left in a state of chaos, flour, milk and other things littered the room and icing was everywhere.
Still they had a cake. A cake for six now instead of three.
"See isn't this great? You had this allll planned out and now I'm here to share it with you and that sexy manbeast, plus your pretty little mist buddy!" Syliva practically sang as she skipped down the hall towards the room they where going to use for the small gathering.
"Yeah well, I umm didn't expect you to be here. Like this exactly," pausing at the door he handed the bouncing Banshee the cake fishing out a key to unlock the small room, it was a side room for parties in the cafateria, a nice table in the middle and a handful of fold out shairs all around it.
"Just leave the cake in the middle alright Sylvia?" The ghoul nodded placing down the cake before flopping into a chair humming, just on the verge of starting a song from what Roland could gather having heard this tune before.Eight To Candace: Cake Party Best Party! Bring you're weapon too, Sylvia won't stop bugging me to meet you guys. Baneful To Rep: Hey man, I promised cake. I deliver. Grab Tracey and come on by. Both messages had one image added in, inside was a large double layer chocolate cake, coated in purple icing with a very poorly drawn on dragon in gold icing along with the symbols of the mist division curling around it.
Also included was Sylvia waving her hand too fast for the poor camera blurring up the picture from the other side of the table.
"Somehow I fear giving you sugar.." he added as he sent the message.
"Oh what could go wrong? Today is a happy day!" word day was dragged out ever so slightly with a high note causing Ro to flinch, he should have added to bring ear plugs.

"Ahhhh~! It's so nice to stretch my legs and walk again!" Atropos sighed happily as she stretched her arms high up over her head, walking alongside Candace and matching the Hunter step for step during their walk to the cafeteria. Candace--or rather Atropos who had picked Candace's pocket when she wasn't looking--had received Ro's test. Cake. She wanted a goddamn cake. She earned one, okay? Suddenly there were several little tweeting sounds coming from Candace's pocket. The huntress blinked and reached in...wait..where was her phone?
"That Roland boil's weapon has his phone and is saying we're laaaaaaate..ohohoh! I'll carry you!" Candace blinked again. When did..? Before Candace even had a chance to ask she found herself lifted and hanging over Atropos' shoulder like a sack of potatoes. "Much better! Ohhhh! And I can still play on your tweety thing with my other hand. Nice."
"Atropos!" Candace whined, struggling against the catoblepas golem's tight hold. "I can waaaaaalk! Put me doooown!"
"That Tracey boil, Rep's weapon, says you have a pretty face." Atropos informed her, clearly ignoring Candace's complaints. "Ohhh! That Wilson boil brought you ho--HIS WEAPON IS A CATOBLEPAS OHMYJACKTHATISSOAWESOME!"
A piece of food flew by. Atropos ignored it and kept walking, kicking open the door to the room with the phone in one hand and Candace still hanging over her shoulder. "We're here! Now quitcherbitchin'! Ohhhh, Candace! This cake looks real good! You should eat a lot of it, okay? You need food." Candace was finally set down on her own two feet, wobbling a bit and grasping her weapon's shoulder to balance herself. That was awkward.
"Thaaaaanks.."

Rep had conceded his phone to Tracey on the premise that if he didn't his innermost secrets would become public deus knowledge. As such at least it was quiet as they headed to this ******** cake Rep hadn't been able to resist. Right in the weak spot for massive damage. He wasn't intending on sharing it either, at least not with Tracey. He would have to be content with the phone and the photo of the cake.
He heard Candace and Atro before he saw them both and cringed pre-emptively, getting the feeling that it was going to be the most irritating thing he'd ever had to do for the sake of cake.
"Hey." he stated dismally, holding out a hand to stop Tracey walking into the wall by the door while texting.

Candace blinked and looked to the door when she heard Rep's greeting. Like Tracey, Atropos was thoroughly distracted by twitter on Candace's phone. She was having too much fun. Candace actually kind of worried Atropos was going to break her phone in her excitement...oh well, she was quiet. Her worry faded into a warm smile, eyes darting to the golem beside her and looking her up and down before turning to Rep again. "Hey. You look thrill--" Wait..that was Rep's weapon? A tiny angel!
"Cuuuuuute!" Candace gasped, clapping her hands together. That was when Atropos looked up from the phone, eyes wide and curious. Cute? What was cute? Her? Of course she was cute.
Oh, wait...Candace wasn't looking at her. Purple eyes darted from her ghoul's face to the tiny fallen angel beside Rep, and then they narrowed dangerously. Oh no. Not this s**t again. Candace was not going to pine for other people's weapons again.
"Hi." She snapped, stepping closer to Candace and curling an arm possessively around the young woman's waist. Mine. Candace paid her no mind.
"So you're Rep's weapon! You're precious!" And what of Ro's? Sylvia, right? She spotted her not far off, grinning again at the sight. All these weapons! This test wasn't so bad after all!

When the others arrived Roland and Sylvia where tangled up in the corner before Roland finally snatched his phone back standing up, fixing his shirt (covered in flour still) before waving to the others, "H-hey glad you could make it." He paused noticing the phones each weapon held.
"They stole your phones too?" He grinned a bit and Sylvia darted right past them squeeing, a high pitched whine that would cause some to flinch, for Roland though it only caused him to blink a bit.
She was a lot more tolerable when not linked directly to his brain.
"TRAAAAACCCCEEEEEY~" She practically pounced the little angel, the pale white girl had silver hair with streaks of blue and green mixed in, her outfit a ragged torn dress as she squeeded at Tracey, "You're so tiny!" She turned to Rep next her face making a little o shape as she moved over to quickly touch his chest before seeming to blush and move to Atropos next squeezing her in a hug too. (And Candace by extension.)
"It's so nice to meeeeet you alllllll." She was practically vibrating with delight. She glanced at Rep again as if to say 'especially you'. Yes Rep, Rolands weapon was giving you the the look
"Glad you four could make it, I see you all are uhhh having fun as well?"

Rep looked on with his best "the-novelty-has-worn-off" long suffering look as Candace fanwned over Tracey. Why couldn't he have a massive demon or monster, something that would inspire fear in the hearts of all around him? Instead he had a very tiny vaguely androgynous angel. He almost wanted to put him in a badass shirt to try and salvage at least some scrap of shared dignity.
Tracey however was just the most delighted it was possible to be. He'd been in silence for what fel like forever, and the sudden attention and notice from other people had him positively bouncing off the walls. He clapped delightedly at Candace's greeting and did the most friendly bow he could.
"Thankyou Candace!" he practically purred. Atropos' gesture was noted however and Tracey didn't go over and upset the hunter's weapon, instead giving her a wave of greeting too.
Sylvia's greeting was much louder and in his face, making him freeze wide eyed in surprise. "I've always been this tall!" he offered helpfully.
Rep gave Sylvia and eyeroll as she touched his chest, on one hand wanting to completely chew her out, on the other realising on some level that today there was just no point in him letting his temper break. He sided with the latter and instead nodded grimly.
"Aye the pleasure's all ******** mine."

"You're welcome! Aw, Rep. How can you not look excited about this? He's so cute! And what lovely wings!" Atropos' brow twitched and her grip on Candace's hip tightened briefly. Candace finally got the hint and looked up with a raised brow, head tilted to one side. Eh? What was her--ohhhh. Right. She smiled and turned to lean against the tall golem, making a happy little noise. That seemed to calm the weapon who draped lazily across her master's shoulders, her head perched atop Candace's. "So this poor little guy has to deal wit--ohshit!" Suddenly Sylvia was upon them, hugging Atropos and Candace so tightly the woman could barely breathe for a second there.
Candace swayed unsteadily when Sylvia finally let them go, finding herself being held up by a concerned Atropos. "I'm fine." She told her with a soft smile and a dismissive wave of her hand. Atropos frowned.
"I'll get you a chair, 'kay?" Candace shook her head. "It's that or I throw you over my shoulder again." Atropos warned. Candace narrowed her eyes.
"If I sit I'll fall asleep." Atropos blinked. Oh! ..Right...she knew that. Or she would've known that if she was still in Candace's head, huh? Oops. She gave Candace an apologetic smile and nodded, but her arm stayed around Candace's shoulder to keep her standing. They both looked up when Sylvia and Ro spoke up again, Candace grinning and nodding. "It's nice to meet you as well, Sylvia! And yeah! It's great to see what Atropos was like before she was my weapon. Isn't she pretty?" Candace spoke with the utmost pride for the golem beside her, slipping free of her hold to approach the cake Ro had made for them.
Damn that looks good.
"Oh man, Rep! Come look at it!" Candace called out with an excited little squeal, jumping in place and clapping her hands. "Ro, you're the best! What kind of cake is it?"

"Really? You looked so big as a weapon, yet so tiny. But the blades matched your wings. You just look so pretty!" Silvya indeed was quiet giddy. She was practically flittering around the room at this point. Oh if only she was a ghost and able to whisk about with no need to walk.
Her eyes darted to Rep again, "You know, you're not as tall as when Roland looks at you." She grinned, "He's almost the same height as Tracey! It makes you look a lot taller..." Granted she was only 5'7 but Rep was still tall from Ro's view.
"It's lovely to see you as well Miss Candace! You did well teaching Roland how to be a mist!" She pointed at the cake, "We even made the little swirly things for you! I made the swirls!"
"She also made a horrible mess of the kitchen, she's a horrible cook." He said with a grin as his weapon only offered a roll of her eyes. "Ah and the flavor is chocolate, the classic cake pick. Can never go wrong with it."
Sylvia chmed in again, "You guys didn't have shocklet, silly humans have no idea what you're missing out on it's like a thousand volts mixed in with this chocolate cake and it's just amazing!" She spun about her dress flirting about, "Now try it try it try it!"

"I can not look excited because I know he's not half as cute and nice as he looks." he said, giving the fallen angel a vaguely despairing look. "Plus." he snorted "He looks like a woman."
"Oh do be quiet about the ghoul thing, if you must know I'm technically both. Doesn't that make you so happy?" he rolled his eyes and looking to the others seemed to apologise. "William feels like he needs to fix women and make them men."
Rep however bristled at this, half at the realisation Tracey had almost been lying to him all this time and half at the way the little b*****d was talking about important s**t as if it was nothing. His feelings on women and his reasons were private.
He picked up the tiny angel in a less than friendly way and glared at him. "Shut up. Just SHUT UP." Tracey glared back and pouted but actually did as he was asked, pointing at the ground. Rep put him down. Rep seemed to almost totally ignore the other weapons once he did, he disliked Halloween creatures, and even ones that had been living in other people's heads were generally still not to his taste. Sylvia got a disdainful curl of his lip before he headed right to the cake instead, something he did like.
"I want a slice."

She did well? Really? Candace chuckled. "I really haven't taught Roland anything yet, Sylvia. There's more to being a Mist than what I've shown him." She said softly, waiting kind-of-but-not-really patiently by the cake. Cake please. Cake now. Cake cake cake pleeeeeeease~. Ro's teasing of his weapon's cooking prowess made her laugh. "Can you really blame her? Who knows how long she's been a weapon waiting for you, though maybe she wasn't a good cook before then either.." A shrug.
Ohhh! Chocolate cake! Candace's eyes practically lit up with joy. Ro was right, can never go wrong with chocolate. Hell, it was a miracle she and Rep were here in this room about to enjoy a cake together that they both agreed they liked. And they weren't trying to bite each other's heads off. Candace made a slight face at the mention of 'shocklet' though. "Sounds...appetizing. Maybe next time, Sylvia." That was about when she heard Tracey's comment about Rep's view of women, arching a brow as she turned to look back at the pair. Fix women and make them men...
Seriously?
"If that's what you wanted you should've looked into becoming a doctor who specializes in sex-change operations." She said calmly, not really caring all that much about Rep's issues right now. There was cake in the room and that took higher priority. Atropos barked with laughter as Rep suddenly lifted Tracey off the ground, and Candace turned back to the cake with a shake of her head and rolling her eyes.
"Cake, pleeeeease~." Ro made the cake, he should cut the cake. Obviously.

Roland glanced at Tracey and shrugged, "You totally got your axe from his wings though, and those wings are awesome." Roland moved towards the cake grabbing a knife along the way, he would cut it, but it was hard to focus with all the people bouncing around the room. He even paused to laugh a bit at Tracey being shaken about.
"Oh I can, she was singing most of the time and just spinning around the room. That was not cooking that was her being a diva." He shot her a glance half amused half irritated. Her only response was to stick her tongue out and spin about sending her tattered dress a flutter.
"OH pleeeeeeease Candace! You showed him how to be a good Mist to save his Princess Rep!" She grinned even wider at the last part causing Roland to let out a groan, "We agreed to never talk about that."
She paused, "Yes. We agreed not to talk about it, I never agreed not to talk to others about it! Besides Candace was there so it's okay! And Atropos was too."
Roland let out a long sigh as he started to cut the cake, "Yes, Candace, Cake!" He offered her the first slice before making five more cuts setting a plate out for each of the people in the room.
"Lets eat cake and never speak of that mist tower again okay?"
