mauville mall has advertised cooking lessons a week before valentines for those looking for more personalized gifts. with hoenn's multi-talented residents skilled on every field, there were only a few that attended. kyle was one of them.

the instructor has relayed the necessary lessons for the class and everyone else is left to their own devices to make their own chocolates.

kyle has signed up for an impromptu culinary class on desserts on mauville among other people with short-term goals. with valentines fast approaching, everyone's objective with joining the class was too obvious, given that they're all there for the same purpose.

the urge to take his phone and search the internet for instructions was strong, but he's determined to make the most of his buck from the lesson by doing everything the instructor had said bit by bit. the only problem was a growing anxiety of maybe misremembering some of the steps.

to combat it, kyle opts to concentrate on his work. he whisks a mixture of eggs, flour and other ingredients, which may be a little too much. he's stalling for other people around him to go ahead with the chef's recipe so he can copy what they were doing.

Symon was in the building doing an advertisement for a clothing chain’s upcoming swim line and was treated to an on the house green juice for his time. Job completed, he took the opportunity to explore the mall, trendy juice drink in hand, mostly keeping on the lookout for other ads with his face in them. It was a favorite pastime of his. [break][break]

He was passing a small confectionary when a girl handing out flyers at the front door caught his attention. “Join a valentines baking class and whip up some sweets to impress your boo!” she said, offering him a piece of paper advertising the class, plus a 25% off discount on chocolates post-completion. “Only a few spots left open!” [break][break]

Sy shrugged his shoulders and shelled out the entrance fee, taking his place at an open station as the class began. He didn’t eat sweets a whole bunch, as demonstrated by his diamond-cut physique and choice of avocado-power green combination juiced beverage, and he didn't have a quote-unquote 'boo', but he enjoyed learning, and was of a mind that there was nothing he wasn't good at. [break][break]

Everyone was given a complimentary apron with the store’s logo on it and listens intently as the instructor goes through the steps. [break][break]

He sees the guy to the left of him sort of falter a bit. “You’re doing great,” he says, flashing him a thumbs up. “Just keep mixing until the mixture is pale. Then you fold in your chocolate.” He follows his own advice, tilting the mixing bowl up to get the best whisking angle. [break][break]

"Making these for someone special?" he asks, to make polite conversation. [break][break]

the voice makes kyle jolt.

he wasn't expecting another person to swing by, much less one with too much supportive presence. while he can socialize with effort, it usually happens only when he's aware that he's going to be. he'd usually attempt to water down other's efforts when it catches him off-guard, but he actually needs the help right now.

"fold?" he iterates, needing to recall the term he just learned that time, before recovering from confusion. "oh! you meant like that."

copying symon, he manages to recreate the texture of the mixture for the most part. the consistency was a bit off than intended, but still usable nonetheless. it wasn't bad, but it was painfully average for a first-timer.

"yup," kyle answers as he concentrates on his thing. "he doesn't eat sweets though, but it's a special occasion so it can be overlooked."

noah was always a big health nut. regardless, he always seems to give in whenever kyle invites him to go eat out somewhere that goes beyond his diet. he looks up to symon afterwards, somewhat reminding him of noah.

"are you doing the same?" he asks. "you look like someone who would."

Sy makes an apologetic face when Kyle jumps. “Sorry,” he says, setting his bowl down to reach for the cocoa powder container. He nods as Kyle does a pretty good impersonation of his technique-- though his desserts may come out a little flat, undoubtedly they’ll still taste good. It was hard to ruin chocolate.[break][break]

By means of explanation, he overshared: “My granny used to make cakes for church and we all got roped into helping her. She also watched a looooot of Food Network.” He didn’t want Kyle to think he was some sort of baking maestro come to flex on the other noobs. He just happened to know how to make a chocolate cake. Sort of.[break][break]

“Aw, doesn’t like sweets! Well, I’m sure he’ll like these,” Sy cheered. The instructor began to pour their batter into the cake molds; Sy did the same. [break][break]

He laughed when Kyle said he seemed like a kinda type, though didn’t really know if he meant the type to not be single, or the type to not like sweets. “Nah, just sort of got… roped in again. Single as a pringle. I was at the mall for work and the advertising did its job and got me to sign up, I guess.” He grinned. “I’m Symon.”

the name gets thrown out. while most people's names get forgotten since he often just meets them once and never again, he feels like he can't forget the name of his cake savior.

"kyle. great to meet you," he casually introduces himself, smiling in case his tone falls flat with concentration.

the cake batter slowly fills the mold, as per the instructions, before smoothing it with a spatula. kyle makes sure not to fuck it up, playing it safe with the process by going for stable consistent pouring instead of the usual sloppy, but passable, job expected from him.

he continues the conversation.

"it's more like he's conscious of his health." kyle wasn't, but living with the fighting-type gym leader and the active lifestyle his job entails forces him to. "but he has no choice but to like this one."

kyle squats down for the oven underneath their stations to check on it, taking his batter-filled mold into the preheated oven for the next step.

"where do you work here?" kyle asks, unassuming. "we have a small office here as well. i try to hang out there instead of the actual office on lilycove when i get called here since the mall's air conditioned. maybe we're, like, floor neighbors or something."

Symon could understand the health-conscious aspect of things, as he tended to stray that way himself; not out of any overt craving for organic purity, but just because he liked to keep his money-makers in the money-making business. Their upcoming show schedule involved leprechauns and rainbows, and no one wanted to see a chubby leprechaun take his tear-away suit off while shaking his ass on stage.[break][break]

He follows Kyle’s example, sliding his own tray of chocolates into the oven and closing the door with a satisfied hum. He gave Kyle a slightly embarrassed smile. “Uh, I was modeling swimsuits. For the Aero brand-- it’s got a big outlet here.” But at the mention of Lilycove, he became enthusiastic again. “My main job is actually in Lilycove too! I do a performance at the Department Store there. Well, me and my troupe. Born and raised there.” He laughs. “In Lilycove. Not the Department Store. Heh.”

it all makes sense to think he's a model. he'd remind him of noah when he was in the 'bodyguard' (which kyle still thinks is a glorified tour guide) business.

it doesn't help that they may have swimwear from the same brand and they might see his face when they buy another pair for the coming summer.

"you know, i'm not surprised," he confesses. maybe he should get to the swimsuit modeling business too if it gets him out of trouble. "you fit the archetype, too. bet you're an overprotective type, but gentle and..."

kyle stops, suddenly feeling the embarrassment. he decides to end all the relating of this new person he just met to his favorite media.

"actually, don't never mind. you'd be one of the characters that will be crowned 'best boy' if you were a fictional character though!"

the part where they wait for the cake cooks and there's less time to be busy and more time to socialize comes at the worst timing. kyle's unsure how to move past his blunder at being socially normal and forcibly moves on with the topic.

"wait, you perform at lilycove department store? i've been there lots of times. as security. people here at hoenn get crazy, yeah?"

Sy is used to compliments about his body. He’s used to people saying ‘Yeah, I see that’ when he says he’s a model. So Kyle’s train of thought is not too far off the beaten track. “Gentle, yes,” he says, trying to alleviate some of the other man’s embarrassment with casual conversation, “but I’m more free-spirited than overprotective, I think. My family is pretty close and conservative, and I’m… not.” He shrugged, using a rag to wipe chocolate up off his station. [break][break]

The part about ‘best boy’ makes him laugh. It’s a good-natured chuckle. “You should tell my mama that,” he says. [break][break]

When the topic turns to Lilycove, Sy nods fervently. “Yeah, Furretdales Revue Show. Every Friday and Saturday night at the Center Stage. We’re gearing up for the season of romance.” He waggled his fingers and rolled his eyes, leaning on his station counter with one elbow. “I also do bachelorette-- and bachelor, occasionally-- parties.” [break][break]

He wondered if Kyle’s ‘best boy’ impression would change now that he’d admitted to basically being a male stripper. It wasn't something he was embarrassed or ashamed of-- it had bought him his freedom from the yoke of his parents and given him a comfortable life. Also, it was fun. He was hot. It was fun to be hot. [break][break]

"Yeah, it does get pretty crazy. There's such a wide mix of people there. A lot of tourists." What happens in Hoenn stays in Hoenn, the saying went. Or it did, now, as he just made it up.

there's grimacing as he hears what symon had mentioned, though it's not in a way he had expected it to be.

"ugh, that place is, uh... not my favorite place," he tells him. "there's too many drunk related incidents reported around that establishment, and within the past year or so, reports of sexual harassment. did that ever happen to you?"

it's not as much as the people he has a problem with, but the problems they cause for him. it's left to people actually stationed at lilycove, but having to deal with it on the few occasions he has business to attend on lilycove was enough to make him shudder.

the oven still ticks, giving the cake some time to bake. watching it rise urges kyle to ask a question that's always been at the back of his head.

"oh, now that you mention that, i've always wondered, do you guys actually do the thing with the cake? the one where you pop out of it in the middle of a party?"

he doesn't actually know since he has very limited experience in the adult world. most of his friends were either people who also like to stay at home, or people who couldn't bring kyle's rather uninterested personality on parties of that nature.

“Yeah, the crowd can be… loose,” Sy says, shrugging. “Drunk people and the chaos they bring, I guess.” He makes sure his station is spotlessly clean without even thinking about it. Let it never be said that Symon Asher Blessing left his kitchen anything less than perfection. “I’ve bounced the club portion a couple of times and it does get pretty crazy. But usually, I’m just the entertainer.” He shrugs and brushes his bangs out of his face.
[break][break]
He’s just a dancer. He just liked to make people happy, at heart. But he supposes he’s sometimes to blame for all the craziness that Kyle, and other authorities like him, may get called in to quell, investigate, and just have to put up with overall.
[break][break]
At Kyle’s question, he grins, nodding. “I’ve done it before! But most of it’s just a decorated box, with the cake at the veeeeeeery top.” He lifts his hand above his head, gesturing at where the pastry topper would be. “It’s hard to cram a guy like me into a box, but it’s also kinda fun to jump out and surprise everyone, so usually worth the muscle cramps.”

kyle gets entranced by the intricacies of the cake strippers use for parties.

"well, if it's not cake from top to bottom, then i guess it's possible..." he appears to be deep in thought as soon as symon divulged the secrets of the cake stripper. he lifts his head up back to him as soon as a thought crosses his mind. "i can fit in one, right?"

he was shorter, slimmer and overall smaller than him, comparatively speaking. he's not sure how flexibility comes in the equation since he doesn't really have a measure on how symon compares to him, but he's going to assume that his size gives him more of a leeway.

"do you also eat the cake afterwards, or is it just, like, plain frosting?"

at this point, kyle was slowly showing how poor his social life was for having not experienced these kinds of parties before.

Sy’s face lights up more than it should have when Kyle takes an interest in his profession… if jumping out of cakes could be considered a profession. “Yeah, you totally could,” Sy confirms, flashing him a thumbs up. “They can always add more layers, too, if they need to.” For him, they usually did.

The timer on their sweets goes off and Sy pops the button and opens his oven. “Usually you can eat the bottom layers, yeah, but the cake itself tends to be… a bit dry, like plaster. Because it needs to hold up,” he explains. Hand in an oven mitt, he slides his tray of chocolate delights from the heat of the oven and onto a pot holder. “Most of the time the events I go to have a separate cake specifically for eating. Tends to be yummier.”

Now all that’s left is for their sweets to cool and get a dusting of powdered sugar. The class is coming to an end.

“I can give you my number,” Sy says, “and when the time comes for needing a cake to jump out of, I can hook you up with the right people if you’d like.” He grins.

kyle's own dessert was taken out at the same time as symon's, barely remembering about it and only being reminded with the other's action. he places his mitts on the side as soon as it starts to cool down.

"you're really an expert on this, huh?"

he takes his phone out, an old bell used as a charm ringing against a feather beside it. he hands it over to symon as he unlocks its screen, showing him a cartoon picture of a poochyena.

kyle has plans for the cake thing. maybe not for his own use, but it's still useful information.

"feel free to just, uh, get your contact info here and stuff. if you need some stuff from the higher ups of the league, like taking shortcuts for passport ids and stuff, i can back you up."

he pauses.

"...just don't tell them it's me."

The class attendant is handing out little white boxes for their goodies to go in; Sy shifts his cakes into the container with a laugh. “Well, as much as anyone can be an expert in jumping out of cakes, I suppose. I’ve just done it a couple times, is all.”

Kyle mentions that if Sy ever needs anyone to pull some strings, he’d have someone in his back pocket; Symon’s face fogs over with confusion, before he grins again.

“Aw, I don’t think I’d ever need anything crazy like that!” he says with a laugh, tapping in his contact info (he lists himself under SYMON (CAKE GUY) and hopes that’s enough to jog Kyle’s memory). “But if you and your boo ever wanna work out or anything, I’d be down!”

He hands the Champion (who he still doesn’t recognize as the Champion, because Sy lives under a rock, apparently) his phone back. A timer goes off on his Poketch and he checks the alert.

“Oh, snap! I’ve got a chiro appointment in thirty. Gotta get my alignment or else I’m off-kilter the whole week.” He gathers up his things and gives Kyle an enthusiastic wave as he hustles off. “Nice to meet you! Take care!”

And that was how Symon met the League Champion and didn’t know it.
