Fenelle reads while Thea's writing (since there's nothing else to do, anyway), and gives an immediate thumbs-up as the three flavours come up. Basic, but also not basic enough like having picked strawberry as third, and blueberry is honestly just such a good flavour.

No, I think those should be really good. We could see about cutting chocolate possibly, but I think it's too popular generally. It'll sell well.

And after all, weren't sales what they were going for the most?

Do you want to prepare the batter while I fetch the ingredients to flavour them? And also for the butter cream. What kind of cream do we want to do? I know Kalosian, Sinnohian and Paldean.

Dee also looks at their Milcery, but decides that no - even if she has more options in this state, her cream's also a bit of a wildcard. It's hard to tell if it's going to be really good or not until you've already worked it into the finished product, and by then it would be too late to do a new batch. (Dee loves it when it succeeds, however, but that's more for personal bakings that aren't so time-limited.)

Fenelle nods, having der efficiency mode fully engaged as dee starts to gather the necessary ingredients for the Sinnohian style butter cream after they've decided the cupcake flavours. Thea's little flex is not lost on dem, however, and dee considers the teen with a pensive look.

I should really swing by the Dojo sometime.
Or see if I can get Rotom or Porygon to inhabit my standmixer ...

Dee glances at der Porygon, wondering. There's also been some considerations about Rotom or Poryphone, but eventually dee couldn't really decide between either so stuck with entirely non-sentient models for now. ... Metagross ...

The workflow continues, but Fenelle seems lost in der mind now, too, considering the possibilities of pokémon-enhanced tech further, and also what the limits of general tech might be ... the merits, ups and down, ways to research ... ...

It's only der baking experience that lets dem stop before the cream would be ruined, whisking and whisking away. Dee stops, and nods at Thea, before wiping the whiteboard clean again.

We need to plan now before we start the baking process.
I suggest this:

And dee notes down a quite detailed and meticulous plan of how they could accomplish everything before the bakesale is over - granted that there weren't any mishaps, but dee seems determined to follow that plan.

Fenelle glances at der pokémon, who are all definitely not interested in getting stronger. And they, for once, didn't need to be. They're just cover and, honestly, mental support. ... terrifying mental support, actually.

Der meticulous plan is accepted, so off to work they'd go! There's not much conversation happening once Fenelle is in the zone, so the next hours pass in a busy quiet that is filled with communication of other kinds. Little taps and head shakes and nods, presentation of finished products before they'd be hurried out to the bakesale crowd, all until the last batch is in the oven, the last cupcakes are decorated and the last crumb is sold!

And unlike Thea's pokémon, the autism gang proves to be mostly idling around for today, now that there's other pokémon helpers around - while they know about the direct relation of work and treats, today they aren't super inclined to put that to the test. (And they still got sweets, so is this even correct at all?)
