[waits..............]

[fullbodied]

... Fourteen!

Give or take a piece.

[artisticliberty]

Very well. I shall eat fourteen pieces of cake, at the very least. As long as it is more than you have ingested, it is my victory.

[opens up his phone app]

Hmm, castella or baumkuchen...?

[fullbodied]

Why not both?

[artisticliberty]

Although I cannot imagine becoming tired of either type of cake, there is no harm in variety.

[getting himself some matcha castella and a ring of baumkuchen cake. this is already too much cake for one man.

also some hot tea for both of them]

Here, for both of us.

[fullbodied]

Ohh, tea looks so nice.

[she's. she's so full. it hasn't hit yet, but it will eventually. she's so full]

[artisticliberty]

[FOOL, IT WAS A TRAP. no not really, he's just being friendly.

and going to town on those cakes, om nom nom]

[fullbodied]

[SHE IS JUST. GOING TO STARE AT THE CAKE... and then at the tea...

and slowly take the tea.]

[artisticliberty]

[he has to take a break after... nine]

These are... quite filling...

[fullbodied]

Mmmmhm.

Thaaaaaaat they aaaaaaaaare.

[sugar high is hitting]

[artisticliberty]

[he makes it to slice thirteen and manages to finish eating it!!

and then slowly

slumps

to the floor]

[fullbodied]

[GASP]

Yusuke! Are you.... giving up?!

[artisticliberty]

I... I...!

[LIFTS HIMSELF UP







and then flops back down]

Yes. I concede.

[fullbodied]

I will take my certificate, please!

[she holds out her hand]

[artisticliberty]

[groans as he gets up because too much food x_x but he sighs and gets out his brush--]

Ah. That reminds me. I have been calling you Takamaki-san because it feels familiar to me, but would you prefer it if I used a different name?

[fullbodied]

Takamaki works-- but everyone else is calling me North.

I don't know much about myself, so I thought I'd wait to take back my real name.

[artisticliberty]

As you wish.

[writes "North" and underlines Queen on the certificate, and hands it to her]

The ink is still quite wet.

[fullbodied]

I'm gonna remember it forever, though.

Mostly because my stomach hurts so much.

[artisticliberty]

Please take care of your health and your stomach.

[easier said than done]

[fullbodied]

[so much easier said than done.]

I'm going to try-- it'll be a loooong time before I repeat this challenge.

[artisticliberty]

Has anyone else come close?

[fullbodied]

Umm... Not yeeeeeat. A lot of people give up after one piece.

And then I got into a speed eating contest, and that's where most of my cake eating came in.

[artisticliberty]

Speed eating...

[pales a little at the thought, and he is already pretty pale. too full x_x]

[fullbodied]

He threw it up as soon as he hit slice 10, so neither of us won. No matter what he says.

[artisticliberty]

[ugh]

A reckless strategy. It is important to know one's limits.
