[ When you enter the room, you find yourself in a small kitchen! It's fully stocked in terms of hardware, but there's not a single ingredient in sight. There's also a small table with chairs around it, enough for your team. ]

We'll keep this quite simple, dears. You'll be making pies today, but you also have a few decisions to make as well. Will you keep the pies for yourself, share them with others, or give them away? Bear in mind, I will only give you enough ingredients to make 5 pies. If you wish to give away a pie, you must give away the entire pie to only one team. If you wish to share one, there are knives to cut the pies with, but you may only cut the pie into equal parts, four parts at most, and you must keep one part of that pie to yourself.

Please discuss amongst yourselves and decide how many pies you'd like to make, which teams you would like to give or share pies with, if any, and how much pie you will be giving to each team. Yes, I believe that will do.

Oh, and do tell me which sort of pies you wish to make so I can provide you with the proper ingredients, dears. You may make each of your pies a different flavor, if you'd like.

...This sounds nice enough.

Really, if it's just pie... I more or less know how to bake.

Re: DISCUSSION

That sounds nice... we could make enough for everyone to have a little pie, I think...

Re: DISCUSSION

[brociopath]

Well, the question's going to be the math of how we split it up and who we give it to.

PIE-TERMISSION

[dramatispersonae]

[ On the counters of the kitchen appear all the ingredients to make the pies your team has decided to make, along with a piece of paper for each. On the paper is a recipe for each pie! ]

[ ... The first half of each pie's recipe. ]

Re: PIE-TERMISSION

[brociopath]

...I'm so glad I know how to bake.

[taking off his jacket]

Can anyone else here? If not, I'm going to order you around.

Re: PIE-TERMISSION

[medpacksapunch]

Order at will!

Re: PIE-TERMISSION

[screwthatnoise]

No.

Does any part of it involve cutting?

Re: PIE-TERMISSION

[standbyrival]

The last thing I remember cooking was a can of beans. Just point us in the right direction.

Re: PIE-TERMISSION

[medpacksapunch]

Uh...

Well, at least it included the crust recipe. The rest can't be hard, right?

Re: PIE-TERMISSION

[brociopath]

Crust is the hardest part, for sure.

Re: PIE-TERMISSION

[standbyrival]

. . .

[welp]

Guess that's the challenging part.

RESULT

[dramatispersonae]

Turn in a description of the results of your baking efforts here.

Re: RESULT

[brociopath]

[The crust will be a bit moist at the bottom centre, and not flaky enough because crust is fucking hard, and they will not be the prettiest pies ever seen, with cherry goo occasionally sloshed onto the crust edges and so on, but it will at least be in pie shape and taste pretty good]

YOUR PIES

[dramatispersonae]

On the table appears 14 plates, each one colored to match a team with a glass cloche over it. Your team's pie distribution is:

JASPER: ¼ of an apple pie
EMERALD: 1x quarter of drankberry pie
KUNZITE: 1/4 slice of pizza pie
AMETHYST: 1/4 coconut pie
IOLITE: 1/4th of chocolate mint
SAPPHIRE: 1/4th of a lemon-blueberry pie
CARNELIAN: 1 peach pie
CORAL: 1/4 of chocolate pie
RUBY: 1/4 of a chocolate pie
CITRINE: one slice of keylime pie

Of note, Citrine's pie looks a little questionable, Ruby's pie looks melted and undercooked, and Coral's pie looks absolutely amazing.

There's also a note on the piece of paper, with neat, cursive writing on it

"You've received these gifts from other teams. Do you accept them all, or are there any you do not feel you should keep? If there is a team's pie you wish to return, you may"

Re: YOUR PIES

[medpacksapunch]

Ooh...

Wait, why did Carnelian give us a whole pie..?

Re: YOUR PIES

[screwthatnoise]

...I do not want Citrine's pie.

Re: YOUR PIES

[brociopath]

Rejecting gifts seems a bit silly... even if we don't want it.

Re: YOUR PIES

[I CAN'T SMELL THEM THERE IS GLASS OVER THEM

We're keeping every pie but Citrine and Amethyst's.
