Natalia saw no need to answer his first question, for she thought it was obvious that she was baking cookies. Obvious to her, maybe, but to anyone else? Not a chance.
"Snowflakes, I'm hoping," she replied, settling a hand on top of the dough wad to hold it in place as she prepared to slice it like a holiday ham. "But from what I understand, stars and little men are seasonal favorites." As for how long, she hadn't really timed her efforts, so she had no reply to give to him.
The knife managed to flake off a few black flecks, but she seemed to be having difficulty forcing the blade into the doug boulder. She shifted her weight on her feet and adjusted her grip on the knife, pushing a little harder.
She lifted her head to blink at him as he posed his question. He said he didn't mean to be rude, but the princess frowned a little just the same. It was fine until he mentioned the last part about only being able to boil water. "I've made cake before." Poorly, and it had been a disaster, but she'd still made it. "But I don't see what that has to do with anything. Even beginners are able to make cookies. That's what the Moogles said."
The knife glanced off of the rock hard dough, but fortunately for Natalia she only nicked her finger instead of chopping it off. She winced and stuck her finger in her mouth. It wasn't too much blood, but it still hurt.
