Chapter ~4~ [Video]
[Delmar is sitting in a cheerful looking room that has been done up in shades of delicate yellows and warm maroons. Seel's handiwork. As for Delmar himself, although he's been forced by the heat to relinquish his beloved sweaters and scarves in favor of a tank top, has still wrapped himself up in a pastel shawl, a way to stay cool without having to be uncovered. He doesn't mind the heat so much if he stays inside, but he cannot stand the thought of being so uncovered.
Despite this little personal dilemma, Delmar looks shy but cheerful as he gives the screen a little wave of his hand]
Hello, everyone, it's Delmar. I just wanted to make a little announcement.
[He then gestures to the room around him]
Thanks to the very very big help of the wonderful Seel the bakery is ready to open. And thanks to Mr. Hope I have a month's supply of ingredients.
[They've been in his apartment during the whole Null invasion, but to his good fortune they have survived.]
Also, if there's anyone who might be interested in helping out here please don't be shy. Everyone is welcome and I would be very grateful for the help. And if you don't know how to bake that is perfectly alright, I would be more than happy to teach you.
[He laces his fingers together before remembering something and getting up to grab something off screen]
Oh! And I've decided to name it the 'Bear Hug' Bakery [He returns into view with his two teddy bears, Harlan Jr. and the lampshade bear, Beauregard, both in knitted sweaters] I know it might sound silly but...well... [A bashful look] ...I thought it was cute.
Anyway, that's all I wanted to say. I hope you all have a good day.

[Um. Give him a second.]
....well. That wouldn't be very nice, now would it? We all need to share.

But I can't speak for the others. Certainly someone very clever like Harlan or Michael must have thought of it.

Oh no, they aren't anything like that. They are my friends. And they are very smart.

[Starting to occur to Kiran that this guy might be... challenged? Or maybe just extremely naive... at any rate, he seems to mean well, which is more than Kiran expects from most adults.]
Well, I guess they must have a handle on it if nobody's got the bright idea to take everything you have yet.

[It's not that Delmar is unaware of things like crime and deception. Its not that he's a stranger to being taken advantage of or being kicked while he's down. But the fact that his bakery is now a reality is like a shot of hope straight into the vein of his already hopeful disposition. This bakery represents the first time in his life he'll be pursuing something because he wanted to do it. Not because he had to or because it was the only job he could get.
So in his wave of joy he's perhaps less eager to think about things like robbery and dishonesty]

[he shrugs his shoulders.]
With all the talk of how horrible this place can get, I'm shocked nobody has done it yet.
