Okay, I see what you’re doing here—you’re sketching a character-focused, slightly comedic inner monologue scene, with visual details, mild self-consciousness, and a nerdy Destiny nod (Failsafe / Exodus Black 👀). I’ll keep it story-forward and tasteful, leaning into personality, mood, and worldbuilding rather than turning it into straight fanservice.
Here’s a clean, cohesive continuation / refinement of your scene in the same POV and vibe:

I glanced down at my chest and sighed.
…Yeah. Still not much there.
Annoying.
I tugged at my bodice a little anyway—pure habit—then reached up and adjusted my bright yellow ponytail so it sat just right behind my head. The ribbon bounced once and settled. At least my hair looked cute. I could work with cute.
“What else should I bake…?” I muttered to myself, staring at the counter like it might answer back.
Cookies were already planned. That much was obvious. But the holidays demanded variety. Something warm. Something nostalgic. Something that made people stop complaining for five minutes.
I pushed my glasses up the bridge of my nose, my left eye’s pupil glowing a vivid, unnatural yellow behind the lens, while my right eye—still stubbornly hazel—stared back at my reflection in the polished counter.
“…I really, really hope the Exodus Black has recipes.”
The thought hit me mid-sentence, and I froze.
Exodus Black?
I crossed my arms over my chest, brow furrowing. Why did that name even pop into my head? That ship was ancient. Golden Age. Broken. Stranded. And yet—
Failsafe.
I huffed, shifting my weight to one leg. “Of course you’d have recipes,” I said to no one, imagining the chipper, overly cheerful AI voice chiming in with something wildly unhelpful and somehow judgmental at the same time.
My ponytail swayed as I turned back toward the counter, resolve settling in.
“Alright,” I said, rolling up my sleeves. “Let’s see what kind of chaos we can bake today.”

If you want, I can:
Make it more comedic (Failsafe-style dialogue popping into her head)
Lean harder into sci-fi / Destiny lore
Or shift it into a cozy holiday baking scene with character growth
Just tell me the direction ✨
