[Locked away from Shinji ikari.]

What manner of gifts are most traditional to bring for one's date if the occasion of the date is baking?

I am familiar with movies, dinners, dances, long walks on the beach, and senseless hook-ups; and the associated gift traditions of each (popcorn, chocolates, flowers, a pair of fruit-themed alcoholic beverages, and nothing but your bad self, respectively).

However, I have never been on a baking date before.

... a recipe book?

But thematic.

A new set of cookie sheets? Rolling pin? A new fancy apron?

[Ponder for a moment.]

I suppose that's the suggestion. Of... where the date should go.

Thank you. See, I know.

um

maybe

flowers can't hurt?

[personal profile] genderneutral 2013-07-25 02:36 am (UTC)(link)
oh no they could hurt then!

does your date have allergies? do lots of people have allergies? giving people flowers is all i know about this kind of thing...

[personal profile] genderneutral 2013-07-25 03:03 am (UTC)(link)
oh that's


good

[personal profile] genderneutral 2013-07-25 03:03 am (UTC)(link)
why the hypothetical though

[personal profile] genderneutral 2013-07-25 03:18 am (UTC)(link)
right that makes sense... i guess...

who's your boyfriend?

[personal profile] genderneutral 2013-07-25 03:29 am (UTC)(link)
he sounds nice probably! i don't want to assume again though because things get confusing when i make assumptions apparently

[personal profile] genderneutral 2013-07-25 04:05 am (UTC)(link)
i thought so because that's what people who are dating other people are supposed to be like i hear

[personal profile] genderneutral 2013-07-25 04:11 am (UTC)(link)
of you you mean? i still think it is...

You don't always have to bring a gift to a date, Kaworu. Dates are all about spending time together.

You could ask him if he has everything he needs, ingredient-wise.
