Good evening, all. I think this is what is termed a 'bandwagon.' However, as I imagine we will all be busy dead, dying, or in the process of resurrecting soon, I thought I had better commit before October.
I'm opening a bakery and sweets shop.
[Lysithea pans the camera to a table that is covered with pans filled with dozens of buns, cakes, and confections of different colors. It really looks extremely well done. One would imagine that Lysithea applies herself with the same intensity to any task she undertakes.]
Everything will be sourced from traditional Fódlan desserts, passed down through family histories and collected by hand in this book. I've realized that if I'm not the one who makes these treats, I'm... never going to taste them again. So I thought I should share.
[The view changes to an enormous tome currently open to a page titled Saghert and Cream in script prominently displaying a luscious picture of some kind of fruit and cream concoction. It really looks like this was drawn by hand.]
I'm baking from my room for now. If you want anything here, you can drop by or I'll bring it over. If you want delivery, you've got to get at least a dozen, because frankly, I'm not running all over town to give you one sweet bun. I'll open a proper location when it's not Death Month.
...Thanks.
[She signs off after a moment's awkward hesitation, as if she's not sure what to do next.]
[video pt 2, ten minutes later]
It's -- me again. Upon further reflection, I have no idea how to run a business, at all, apart from the portion where you confidently declare it in public.
I would... appreciate advice.
And help. If you are willing to be paid in cake.

Can I at least call my girlfriend first to let her know that another girl is going to be confining me to her kitchen for an indefinite amount of time?
[ help. ]

[just saying]
All humor aside, feel free to come by whenever you please, Ange. I'm sure it will be a more positive experience than you imagine.
[it won't
but perhaps we might leave them on this positive note before lysithea learns what a Terrible Mistake she's making.]
yes, we can wrap it here!
I.. guess I can stop by sometime.. [ How Ange, an actual 20 year old at this point, manages to sound like a toddler that doesn't want to visit the dentist while saying those words is a small miracle. ]
So we'll see by then.
