"Okay! So how are we getting to the dungeon? It's not like Zed would just appear out of nowhere and we could use one of his shadow portals." Syndra questioned.

On that note, a shadow portal actually opened up. Zed walked out shirtless, wearing a chef's hat, his mask, an apron, white pants, and mittens while holding cookies.

"How about a thousand poros!" Syndra waited a few seconds, "A poro? Just one? No? I used up my one wish on him?"

"I don't think it was a wish, I think it was a weird coincidence." Riven comforted.

Zed looked around confused, "Whoops, wrong portal. This is awkward…"

Irelia looked at Zed, then back to Syndra, "This is the Master of Shadows? Not quite what I expected," Irelia closed her eyes as she smelled the aroma of cookies that began filling the air. "But dang do those smell good!"

"Don't they! Do you want to try some!?" Zed cleared his throat, "I mean, if you want you can have some."

"Sure!" With that Irelia grabbed a cookie, savoring the macadamia's flavor, then a more serious expression took over her face. "They are good, but I think you either forgot to add almond extract, or at least not enough."

Zed glared at Irelia for a second, then a look of understand appeared in his eyes, "I think you're right! I thought something was off. It was driving me crazy!" Zed then took a knee in front of Irelia, "I thank you, you have saved me hours of imperfect cookies." Zed got up and looked at Syndra, "I approve of your new girlfriend!" And gave her a thumbs up.

"Wait, what?" Irelia questioned, confused.

"Working on it Zed!" Syndra yelled at Zed.

Zed appeared confused, "What? I'm just saying what no one else is willing to say."

After that Zed turned back to Irelia, "May I ask where you learned how cook? No…non-baker could pick out a missing ingredient like that."

"Um…my father was a master swordsmen, but he thought it was important to have a diverse background. So he made my brother and I learn to cook, he thought that mixing the ingredients quickly would increase our dexterity, and it taught us patience. Personally I think he just wanted us to cook dinner for him so he could focus on baking."

Zed nodded in approval, "Your father sounds like a great man." After that Zed turned back to Syndra, "You better not mess this up! I demand that she become my sister-in-law!"

Riven chimed in, "Are you two even related?"

"Officially? No, but with how we act towards one another we might as well be. If I try to deny it any further I might as well be in Shurima. Right now Irelia's the only good thing about me being her brother."

Off to the side Syndra mumbled to herself, "Now I have to deal with two bakers…"

Riven consoled Syndra, patting her on the back, "At least now Zed can go to Irelia instead of you with his baking problems, and you don't have to worry about cooking anymore!"

A/N: Get it? Because Shurima is basically Egypt?

Also ever since Midnightfluff made me think of Zed as a baker, I have slowly been imaging what a Baker Zed skin would look like. This is what I have come up with so far, except he would have cookies instead of Shurikens on his back and his wrist blades would be replaced with a spatula and a whisk. Also whenever he uses his E, cookie dough flies out around him instead of shadows. Baker Zed, Riot Please.

Usually family approval is an issue for after you start dating someone, but Irelia already has it before hand. Heck Zed is probably plotting ways for them to get together in the background, just so he can have someone else to talk about baking with. No offense to Zed's ninjas but they aren't quite at the skill level yet of baking where he can have a deep conversation about baking with them. Besides he has to retain his master status, so he wouldn't dare ask them for advice. Also Zed likes Irelia so someone else can make sure Syndra doesn't blow up too much of the world in her free time.
