Early in the morning, before most of the bar is awake, a tiny time traveler visits the kitchen. She would stay at home for a late-night snack, usually, but...

Well.

Ace already knows way too much about the Wells' romantic life, and about one picosecond downstairs at the farm let her know that sticking around would only teach her more. And since Bar was getting a break in the quiet hours of the night, Ace decides to fetch a snack herself. It's really too bad she left her current project on top of the microwave when she left.

"Well, you see, it's not as easy as going 'yay, souffle'... well, actually, that's pretty much the whole plan, but you have to make it a flavor first, and there's all sorts of flavors." Oswin explain, her nerves translating to babble as she leads them into the kitchen.

Autor eases into a shy smile. "I like ginger. A lot. And grapefruits are okay," he says. "Let's go for it!"

He heads to the fridge and pulls out butter and milk, which he carries over to the oven. Pulling a saucepan out of the cabinet, he sets it on the burner and turns that on. "How much butter do we need? And how much flour?"

"Three tablespoons butter, and three... drat, didn't get the flour out, hang on, I'll get it." Getting the flour requires a little bit of shelves-scaling when you're her height (somehow it always ends up on the higher shelf). "Huh, I didn't know there were multiple types of flour here."

"Well, it makes sense," Autor calls over his shoulder from his place at the saucepan. "We are in the kitchen at the end of the universe. Just pick one."

Options:

Have Oswin choose the white all-purpose flour?

-or-

Have Oswin choose the slightly off-white all-purpose flour?
