Beside the counter upon which the freshly baked cake sat there was a human, pacing and looking very intent indeed, and brandishing Implements of Certain Doom: an icing spatula in one hand, and a tube filled with gooey royal blue icing in the other. Other such Implements of Certain Doom lay on the counter as well, far too close to the cake pan for comfort: triangular icing combs, different decorating tips, and tiny figurines. Oh, and knives. As if for . . . carving.
The bright white glow of the compact fluorescent lightbulbs in the diner's ceiling (the human was trying to be green) reflected off the more metallic IoCDs in just that sort of way that called for an ominous musical sting. There should have been one.
. . . not that the cake could tell, what with lacking ears and all.
And then -- and then! The human FELL UPON THE CAKE with its Implements of Certain Doom!
Again, the cake lacked emotion, and thus was not
actually terrified by this, even though perhaps it should have been.
It also had no sense of time, so it had no way of knowing exactly how much time it took for Certain Doom to unfold. A shame, really; it really looked very pretty afterward, but again, no eyes.
