Wow, I actually got an idea! XD

Title: Flour Baby
Challenge: Kodak Moment
Word Count: 247

Great Ninja’s were not made for cooking, as it had been discovered through many past experiences, but Yuffie would be damned if she let that stop her this time. After all, Aerith and Squa, er, Leon, were still sleeping peacefully in their rooms, and wouldn’t see if she messed up too badly.

Gloves shoved into the pockets of her yellow denim shorts she got to work, mixing pancake batter – from scratch! She was so proud! - in a large bowl, tongue partially stuck out between her lips in concentration.

… It needed more flour.

Yuffie glanced on top of the refrigerator, eyeing the large bag. It had been hard enough to get it the first time, now she needed more?

“Well, a Great Ninja’s gotta do, what a Great Ninja’s gotta do…” She carefully pushed aside the bowl of mix and hopped across the tiny kitchen for the ever handy stool they kept for things like this.

One long reach secured the bag in her hands and her bright yellow scarf caught underfoot. With a shriek she fell back, dragging the soft white food-stuff down on top of her.

Aerith shuffled into the kitchen, Leon close behind, curious as to the large crash that had awakened her, completely unprepared for the sight of the Great Ninja Yuffie on her butt, in the middle of the kitchen, covered from head to toe in flour.

Amidst Aerith’s quiet giggles, Leon murmured, “We need to keep cameras for these things.”

*laughs* I can just imagine that happening. ^^

I think you captured Yuffie's adventurous, determined, and slightly self-congratulatory nature very well here; she's certainly the type to get herself into comic situations like this one.

I particularly like the final line. Not only does it provide a nice finish, it also conveys a sense of family between the three of them, which is something I'm very partial to.
