Goodbye, My Dear Cake

(The story was inspired off a song. The original lyrics are Japanese, which I read a translated Chinese transcript of, then translated into English. There is bound to be inaccuracies. I have also changed quite a lot of the lyrics for the story. The lyrics are italicized. The song is called “Goodbye, my milk tea pearl”, translated from [さよなら仆のタピおカ], and can be heard here. It is recommended listening to it while reading the story.)

Dr. Sun: Once upon a time, in a faraway MSCP Foundation, there lived a D-Class member who loved eating cake

Dr. Sun: ''He always ordered it from the D-Class cafeteria, then stored it inside of his cell and ate until he's full every time he got the chance to do so. ''

Dr. Sun: And thus, is the ending of the story...

Dr. Sun: ...SIKE! How is a happy ending possible for a D-Class in the MSCP-Foundation anyways?!

Dr. Sun:  So let's talk about the tragedy that is this story...

Dr. Sun: Well, it's not that the D-Class escaped from the Foundation or got killed by an MSCP

Dr. Sun: (That kind of thing isn’t important anyways) 

Dr. Sun: One day, when that D-Class is eating cake, he suddenly dropped to the floor.

Dr. Sun: ''He was then immediately rushed to the infirmary! ''

Dr. Sun: ''Eh? The reason behind this? Who the hell knows?!''

Dr. Sun: Isn’t that kind of thing supposed to be the problem of the medic anyways?!

Doctor Animus: Actually, it is. Isn't it your turn working at the infirmary?

Dr. Sun: Wait, it is?

And so, the story begins...

D-2333: Goodbye, [sniffle] my dear cake....

[Interlude]

A large migraine sits in the back of my head,

Making me dizzy, a seemingly unbelievable disease

My body feels weak

And only my hunger is left

The most 'experienced' doctor of the foundation comes to determine my sickness

Ah...please cure me quickly...

I want to eat cake so bad TTATT

D-2333: Doctor, what disease-

Dr. Sun: ''[Smiling 'kindly'] A very rare phenomenon. ''

D-2333: What is the name?...

Dr. Sun: Acute cake syndrome.

D-2333: ''What kind of disease is that? ''

Dr. Sun: After you eat cake...

D-2333: Yes?

Dr. Sun: You will turn into cake.

D-2333: ...???WHAT???

D-2333: Goodbye, my dear cake

D-2333: I will never be able to eat the delicious sugary goodness anymore QAQ

D-2333: Goodbye, but I have and always will love you, cake cake cake cake!

D-2333: It's incurable

D-233: But I'll recover if I stop eating it.

The Doctor told me this before skipping away (happily) to her next experiment.

[Interlude]

About three hours after I stopped eating cake, I've already started missing it.

About half a day after I stopped eating cake, my skin has started itching badly.

About a day after I stopped eating cake, my hands and feet won’t stop shaking.

Three day’s after I went off cake, everyone's heads around me seems to have turned into cake...

The poor D-Class is rapidly growing thinner day after day, no longer looking as healthy as he was before.

The other unknowing researchers of the foundation came to investigate what's wrong.

Dr. Animus: D-2333, would you like some cake before we start the interview?

D-2333: ...Dude, that's not cake!

Dr. Animus: ''Eh? ''

D-233: That's a pumpkin pie!

Dr. Animus: ''Oh! My apologies.''

Dr. Animus left after that.

D-2333: Would it matter if I just ate a little bit?

Dr. Sun: [Appears out of nowhere] You'll become cake...

D-2333: I think that's fine...

Dr. Sun: Are you sure about that?

D-2333: ''AHHH! I want to eat cake so bad!''

Dr. Sun: You might regret it...

D-2333: ...I will live on as a piece of cake!

Would becoming something I love be truly so bad?

D-2333: [Sigh] If I did become a piece of cake someday, I bet I'll be experimented on by the MSCP foundation...

D-2333: ''But life without cake is meaningless! Absolutely meaningless! I'll die!''

Goodbye my dear cake, this must be my ultimate fate.

Goodbye my dear cake, I have and always will love you, cake cake cake cake!

You never realize what's important to you until you lose it...

D-2333: ''So what am I afraid of? I'm going to feast on cake regardless!''

Munch munch munch munch munch munch munch munch munch munch munch munch munch munch munch munch-

D-2333: ''Ah! The fluffiness and sweetness of the cake is simply so intoxicating! The flavour that just explodes into my mouth is @$)@*$*@(#+%(2$#”297@-''

D-2333: Who cares if it's acute mint chocolate syndrome or something else!

D-2333: ''Cake is the best! I love cake forever!''

My life holds no regrets!

[Interlude]

Dr. Sun: Once upon a time, in a faraway MSCP Foundation, there lived an MSCP-084-1.

Dr. Sun: It's living a life that is full of experiments and cake.
