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.

[ He sure is tired of being cold all the time.
But that book looks great. Even though he doesn't like books. Books about sweets? That has to be good. ]
Dunno, think you can use any fruit. Uh... are there fruits here? Been getting real into mushroom stuff, but I dunno if a mushroom sorbet sounds good, at all.
[ It's some shit Flynn would probably make ]

[Lysithea responds, not so diplomatically.]
We'll experiment. In the meantime... oh, just take some cakes. I'm looking forward to a profitable partnership.
[And Lysithea will slide over another little honeyed bun - and perhaps they can end on this positive note. Look forward to a lot of bossiness in the future, Yuri!]

You got it, boss. I'll be here.
[ And, you know, at the ship yard to haul all that sugar. He gives her a little wave as he bites into the honey bun (wow it's a really good bun), and makes his way back out the door ]
