His stern look slowly melted into a flattered smile. After all, how could he refuse a party thrown in his own honor? Aku stood, clasping his hands behind his back as he made his way toward her.

“Very well, Azura. Lead the way.” As they continued into the hallway, Aku kept pace beside her. Still eyeing that slice of cake, he leaned sideways to point at Azura’s plate with a sharp talon. “…I hope you have saved a slice of that cake for me.”
