When Sora baked, it was as if time slowed around him. He approached every recipe with quiet focus, reading through instructions carefully, visualizing each step before touching the ingredients.

Even the smallest detail mattered to him: the temperature of the oven, the consistency of the batter, the rhythm of folding ingredients together.
