The Magpie Emporium; Friday [11/17].

[pun_king]

You know what? Even if the squirrels apparently didn't think him having an impromptu cheesecake party like he did his impromptu jelly bean party was a good idea (for solely absurd reasons like 'not having the time' and 'too much going on right now IRL', whatever that meant!), Graham was still going to have his own little mini- cheesecake party at the Emporium today, with actual mini-cheesecakes, because that was funny, and all of them with graham cracker crusts, because that was even funnier.

So, really, if anyone came in and happened onto the impromptu mini mini-cheesecake party and helped him celebrate, they'd be doing him a favor, because he will try to eat all of these himself, and he will regret it later.

He didn't find any cheesecake games to go with his cheesecake party, but he did find a cheese board game, and he thought that was pretty neat, at least!

The Magpie Emporium is open!

"You wouldn't happen to have any cheesecakes in here, would you?" Belle asked as she entered the shop.

Why yes, she had listened to radio this morning.

"Why, would you know it," said Graham, certainly not making the connection and feeling very proud of himself for his apparent foresight, "I do! Mini-cheesecakes, to be precise!"

He gestured toward them for proof, grinning proudly, and then swinging an encouraging finger in the air.

"But don't worry!" he assured her. "What they lack in size, they make up for in awesomeness!"

"I would expect nothing less," Belle said with a bright smile. "You would hardly serve something subpar!"

[pun_king]

"Would you like some, then?" Graham asked eagerly. "You're welcome to have as many...or as little...as you'd like! I definitely grabbed....more than I should eat."

The guy had a hollow leg as vast as his cloak pockets, so it wasn't a matter of what he could eat, after all...

"I would be delighted to save you from being forced to eat too many tiny cakes, Sir Knight!"

Belle flashed another smile before reaching for one of the cheesecakes.

"Your bravery in the face of such a daunting task is noted and appreciated, my lady!" Graham declared, with a broad grin and a bow and a doffing of his feathered cap. "And if you have a few, you'll have to tell me which ones you like best, because that's always a good thing to know! But how has your day been, Belle? What's on your agenda now that your quest for cakes has been victorious?"

"I do try my best to be brave," Belle said before taking a very brave bite of the tiny cake.

"And finding out my favorite flavor is just a culinary adventure, isn't it? Much like with the jellybeans!"

[pun_king]

"Where did you come out on that one, anyway?" Graham asked. "I was asking so many people, and so many people weren't sure, that I don't think I really did a very good follow-up."

"I quite liked the pomegranate ones," Belle said.

They were dark red flavored!

"Though your popcorn ones were interesting."
