    Tech watched as they sifted the flour, a small smile playing on his lips. He’d never really considered himself a baker, but the rhythm of the task was oddly soothing. He’d volunteered to help, mostly because he’d been curious about the process. And now, as he measured out the sugar, he found himself strangely engrossed.

    Things had started out fine- the Batch had landed on a planet and planned to stay a day or two. This was to give everyone a moment to breathe and Omega some time outside the ship that wasn't in the immediate danger they always found themselves in. Then, their newest squadmate had disappeared a bit after.

    He had searched for them, adjusting his goggles as he glanced into a community kitchen, which they were, surprisingly, within. They noticed him before he could say anything and was invited. Which, in the end, he had taken up.

    He had cooked very few times before, mostly since the squad tended to rely on rations or whatever they bought at a store. Baking was something he definitely did not do, but he found himself rather enjoying it.

    "Wait, that needs the slightest bit more," Tech said before adding a bit more of the sugar ingredient to their measurement cup.

    "According to the other recipes I found, I believe adding an extra half a cup of this would-" he paused at their glare before awkwardly clearing his throat and adjusting his goggles. "My apologies- your recipe is fine."
