Niles talked about making an "au [with] bake off [with] bird girls" in chat. I misunderstood "au", and I decided to take it to it’s most logical extent.

Why did this freak me out so much? I don't know, but it was great! I'm not 100% sure what's going on but it felt very ominous, probably from how the characters were acting so completely scared and confused. I want even more Team Bird!
Very creative. I did enjoy that a lot! Take my +1 muffin. I promise this one isn’t burnt.
Doctor North was here. Just don't let South know, or East….never tell East.
I expected this was going to be a light-hearted goofy story with anime themes. What I got was much better.
This tale also exercises what I loved about 4800
with its unique way of being meta without doing or mentioning anything about pataphysics!
The creepy feeling here is great: you show the implied history very well by beginning, the eventual discovery that the universe is the baking contest, and then the note about non-anomalous humans. Amazing, take your +1.
