[ Kenta nods, small and slow, but his hold doesn't loosen. Not even a fraction. He's here, and he's not about to vanish on him. ]
... Yeah. I think she'd really like that. [ Though she'd probably be happier about this moment in general: two people that she loved and cherished spending the day together, making sure they're okay. ] We've never made a cake together before!
[ Kenta nods, in part at his assessment of their need for ingredients but mostly at his declaration. Duval is a witch! The best witch Kenta knows! ... just don't ask him how many witches he knows. ]
I've helped mister Shigeru bake! So it won't be my first time. [ How much does Kenta actually help? Questionable. But things come out of the oven edible and the kitchen kept clean in the process, so really, victories. ] What do you already have?
Sugar, mint, and eggs. [Though, it's important to note that the mint he has is the actual plant and not extract. Not exactly what they would want.] So we need flour.
And chocolate! [ Because, well, what kind of mint chocolate cake would it be without the second thing in its name? ] Oh, and salt! Though we gotta be careful to not mix it up with the sugar.
Though, it might not help much. Standing in the baking aisle of a shop, even a list can't help when they're both stupid and have never really baked before.]
I don't know... let me ask! [ Because he sure knows someone who does!
One reply from Shigeru later: ] This one's for baking! [ Picking up a bag of normal sugar, and placing it in their cart. ] And this one's for frosting! [ Picking up the powdered sugar, and looking up at Duval. ]
Maybe we can decorate the cake, too? [ he wants to decorate the cake, too................ ]

It can't be that hard. I'm a witch, for heaven's sake. [But there is a difference. Witchs' magic and potions don't have to taste good.]
...we might have to go shopping.
[Unappealing when he feels like such a husk of a man, but if they have to do it for Delilah then it will be done.]

We can decorate. You know she'd like that.
[Duval squints at their list.]
Next is... baking powder and soda?
