Xiu didn't seem to mind so much that he was checking his phone, falsely assuming--or more like hoping--that he may have been talking to that undead ghoul he had mentioned the first time they met. She still had no idea who she was or if the fire demon had made any progress since that day, but she at least hoped that things were going well.
"Duly noted," she nodded, filing the information away in her head. Grabbing a chair, she carried it over to where Andrew was, nudging it against the back of his knees. "I'm going to do some quick decorating on the cakes, so why don't you sit down while you text? Unless you want to help." Xiu added the last bit with a wry smile, gesturing towards all the bowls of icing and the gumpaste decorations she had been working on. As she moved past him to retrieve the cakes from the fridge, she took a quick sneak peek at his phone screen.
Did that say "Rikki"? Must have been Danny then. "Tell Danny I said hi," Xiu chirped casually, pulling the cakes out from the fridge and setting them down. Without further ado, she began to finish off the cakes, aiming for one of each type so that she could make her taste sampler try them all.

Xiu playfully stuck her tongue out at him at his accusation, but otherwise focused on quickly frosting and decorating the cakes. She didn't look up when she heard the boil's phone buzz--probably a reply from Danny--but let out a curious hum. "What did she say?"
She probably could have found out herself with another screen peek had she just waited a few minutes longer since she had finished up her task quite quickly. Setting each of the dainty cakes on one long plate--earl gray and cream, spiced dark chocolate, and chocolate and raspberry--Xiu grabbed a fork and then moved over to where Andrew was seated.
"Here, taste tester," she grinned, offering them to him, "Try them now that they're not just the base cake flavours. I promise that they'll be better. Less...scalding hot, I suppose, but better."

"I have other taste testers too," she confirmed, her eyes focused on the cakes she was decorating, "I usually get a few different opinions since everyone has differing tastes. You, for example, are clearly much more of a chocolate fan than my uncle is."
Finishing up the last cake, she turned to flash a grin at him. Immediately after, she got to work building up a small cake box so that she could pack away two of the desserts for Andrew to bring back. While she was tying it all up, she cast a flickering glance towards the boil.
"So? What are your plans tomorrow?" Was he going to go back to his classes, or...?

"Duly noted," she laughed, tucking the box into a bag and carrying it over. She had been able to plop it into her lap when she realized what a terrible, terrible idea that would be for the cakes. In the end, she set it down on the floor beside his seat instead, gesturing to it to make sure that he knew it was there and to take it later.
Her expression fell a little when he revealed that he still had no intention of going to school the next day. The idea of the boil wandering around aimlessly worried her a little, so much so that she perked up at the mention of a part time job. "Actually," Xiu started slowly, her tone careful, "Gene and I have been talking about hiring students at Shifting Blossoms. I mean, there would be a whole interview process and Gene would have a say in what happens but...well. Just a potential option if you want to keep it in mind."
