Lucretia had definitely had taako’s elderflower macarons before the candlenights episode like they’re one of his signature recipes and she had loved them for 100 years
BUT she also knew that they were his own, secret recipe that no-one else knew so she was like ‘hmm ok if i eat one i have to be sure to react like i’ve never had one of my favourite macarons before, if he thinks i’ve had them before he’ll get suspicious, ok Lucretia just… act… natural’
& long story short that’s why ‘hot diggity shit that is a baller cookie’
Lucretia, mentally: nailed it
Taako: haha the whole recipe is in my book!!
Lucretia: …
Lucretia: this pretense has been wholly unnecessary
*later*
Lucretia: *leafing through a newly purchased copy of taako’s cookbook trying to commit to memory which of his recipes she can and cannot admit familiarity with* okay okay okay this is fine okay
*still later*
Lucretia, sweating: *pointing at recipe for a dish taako made almost every week on the starblaster* hey taako… this looks… good… could you make it??
Taako, drinking a milkshake, only half listening: do i look like i work for free
Magnus: why don’t you just make it yourself there’s instructions right there
Lucretia: um
Taako: the director’s a terrible cook
Lucretia, panicking: how do you… know that..
Taako: i can smell it on you
