"Oh! You didn't have to friend!" I signed as I let them take the bread.
"Oh, but to give away so much inventory without paying for it would be damning to such a small business as yours. I insist."
He begins to test the bread. He starts by listening to it. Knocking on it, crunching the crust. Then, he smells it, before and after cutting. He tries each piece, with and without butter or one of the various jams he brought with him. He seems pleased, but then he always does, doesn't he?
He then moves on to the pastries. He tries each element separately, then all together.
Overall, he is very thorough in his testing, jotting down notes frequently.
"Okay but if you need anything else let me know" I hesitate to take the money given before doing so.

He inhales deeply. "Could be improved, but perfect is the enemy of good, after all. Your breads and pastries are interesting in both flavor and scent, and when you have been around as long as I have that matters much more than whatever qualifies as 'haute cuisine' at this exact second. I'd like to purchase as much of your stock as you feel is prudent. If you'll allow me, I wish to sell it at my own restaurant and give you a cut of the profits as well. It would be advertised as your bread, so you would be getting more customers that way as well."

Let him who is without sin cast the first stone.
May each word that I speak be backed by each of my teeth.
"That's nice of you! I'd love too!" The crow was jumping with excitement, barely able to contant themselves.
"Well then, should I help you in the bakery? I need a lot of bread, and I don't want you getting worn out. Then you wouldn't be able to try new recipes, and with a creative mind like yours, that would be an absolute shame."

"I wouldn't have offered if I wasn't prepared for it. And to be clear, I don't want to steal your recipes. You can likely make them with more prowess than I can in my kitchen anyway."
He brushes off his apron. "Also, I need to get back in the habit of baking bread, since I haven't done it in a while."

'True. Sometimes I wish I'd knew more people as a kid, I had a couple of friends I guess? A feral child who ate dead animals in the street, a friendly cannibal dhampir, but mostly, my only friends were vermin'
'Yeah! Things are a lot better now! No longer half-starved, disease-riddled, flea-infested garbage kid! Now I got money, and friends, and a family, and some dignity. But not too much dignity'
"Well soon I hope I can impress you with the soup." I signed before taking off my apron and closed my stall, walking out.
