Hey guys, Belgium here~! I’ve got a big announcement to make! My big broer, the Kingdom of the Netherlands is here! He’s… come here big brother.

[She disappears off screen for a moment and could be heard talking to someone before dragging a taller, handsome man onto the screen by his arm.]

Well, this is him, he’s really strong, handsome and aloof. So please try to keep in your pants girls!

[She was patting his arm with each word as she gushed about him.] He can be kind of stingy at times, but please don’t let that put you off, he’s really good at heart, I swear! Anyway, please help him feel at home, he’s feeling worse off than I did when I first got here.

[Another pause before she clears her throat.]

Oh… sorry brother, I kind of stole your thunder, please go on and introduce yourself.

“Did you really have to embarrass me with the stingy—”

[ the sound of silence for a few moments as he does a classic facepalming gesture, before adjusting the camera once more so that his tall frame isn’t cut off ]

“Anyway…”

[ a cough, before he continues ]

“I’m just as strong as the average man around here, considering several things, but… well, if you have to ask…”

[ he falls silent for a moment, because damn he hates speaking in front of so many people, and caught by surprise too! ]

“I mean, I can do some numbers and know some other stuff, but everything is like, really new to me and—”

[ a few moments go by before something sticks their head out of a pocket of his overcoat ]

“Ko—Konijn! Not now…”

[ the culprit is revealed to be a small, fluffy rabbit. ]

Oh!

[Mash had just met Belgium last month - a fine young woman! - and now here she is with a brother… who is also… named after a country? Which is kind of weird and something she makes a note to ask about sometime but honestly she worked with a guy who goes by Peperoncino Scandinavia so she can hardly judge names. She gives a little bow to the screen.]

Nice to meet you, Netherlands! My name is Mash Kyrielight. I had the pleasure of meeting and working with your sister last month. I’m glad you two were able to be reunited.

[A pair of long white ears peek into the edge of the frame. Another rabbit?! Well, not quite. Mash adjusts the camera down to get a better view of Fou, bending down to get just into frame with him as he sits in her lap.]

Did you have a stowaway from home arrive with you as well?

Aw~!

[She looks over her brother's shoulder] Is that the one you based your cake off of~?

Ah, yes, actually! This is Fou! He’s very fluffy, as you can see, so I couldn’t bring him to the kitchen. Say hello, Fou.

[Fou gets a little closer to the camera as if inspecting it and the people on the other side before giving a cheery little:]

Fou fooou!

He most certainly does look incredibly fluffy.

[She giggled in return. So cute~! Raising a hand Anri gave a small wave in return.]

Hello, Mr. Fou~! I can understand why she used you as a model. I do hope you were able to give it to the person you care for.

Y-yes! I was! [Mash looks a little bashful about it, smiling softly.] Thank you again for your help.

He’s a dear friend to both of us, so he’s an excellent source of inspiration. [Fou puffs up proudly. Yes, yes, praise him some more!]

Don't mention it. I'm just happy to have helped.

[Her smile grows, evidently happy to have just helped out this sweet girl!]

Yes, yes, you are very handsome, aren't you Mr. Fou? [Ahhh...! She wants to pet him so badly~!] I hope it also helped inspire you to continue baking as well.

Fouu~!

Yes, it has! I would bake on occasion back in Chaldea, too, but I generally made enough to share with as many of the Servants as possible. Which was...quite a lot. [A little laugh.] I suppose there are plenty of wonderful people I could share with if I did make such large batches here, but I think I'll work on perfecting smaller recipes too.

That's wonderful! And perfecting thr basics, and smaller scale items, is a wonderful way to help you grow and expand your skills.

You can't get better without building you foundations and all that~. Did you have any favorites that you enjoy makung?

Very true! [Nod nod] I mostly made cookies. They don't require a lot of experience to make and were always well received, especially by Ibaraki and the children Servants.

Do you have any recipes you'd recommend?

I was actually going to say cookies. And perhaps muffins and breads.

There are quite a few different ways to bake bread.

“If one could call this a stowaway, then yes. I’m surprised they didn’t drown after… you know, the great ‘dunking’.”

[ which meant to say, his own arrival smack dab in the middle of the lake where he almost drowned, no biggie… ]

“They’re rather... affectionate.”

[ at this, the culprit, no larger than his own hand, looks up and sniffs at the camera. ]

“Konijn, are you trying to be cute?”

Fou is the same way. He can be very protective, too. [Mash laughs softly, patting the creature's head. Fou leans forward and sniffs the camera in kind before giving a defiant little:]

Fou! Fou foouuuu! [Special translation: you're gonna need to step it up to be cuter than me!]

I think it's nice, having another friend from home with you in an unfamiliar place.
