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.

[But she nods. This was a subject she couldn't help but always be excited about to the point it would look like she could produce sparkles at will is possible.]
That is basically it. Be the change I want to be.
no subject
[it's a little depressing]
But it will be up to us to make it safer - more welcoming - less... nightmare...ish.
no subject
[But she nodded slightly.]
That's right and we will do our best to make it as such.
no subject
[Lysithea sounds very uncertain.]
Less like a nightmare and more like a new page. But at least the nightmare is inhabitable, I suppose.
no subject
So this was a odd buy slightly nicer change.
no subject
I was under the impression that once the business with Julia had been satisfactorily resolved, the world would be returned to some semblance of stability. It seems as if... perhaps, we did not resolve it satisfactorily.
no subject
We tried and that is all that matters, even if there is still some oddities.
