VIDEO [Backdated to 2/15]

[ The broadcast starts with the shifting of the camera to show they’re in someone’s lovely abode. Hm. Maybe you’ll recognize some people in passing before the show starts? Once the the camera is balanced, everything comes to light.

Welcome to Mochi House Kitchen where our heroes, Akira Kurusu and Orihime Inoue, are suit up in the ugliest aprons you have ever seen. For reference, Akira is in this one and Orihime is the buff cook. ]

Hello! It’s so nice to have everyone together again. We’ve been up north for a while and we missed Valentine’s Day, but that doesn’t mean we don’t have something to show everyone our appreciation!

[ Akira doesn’t seem to get the memo that they’re recording. Thinking that she’s still practicing or whatever, he asks: ]

Hey, do you think we should use ghost peppers for a separate chocolate filling? Not in all of them, but maybe a handful.

Oh, yes! We don’t want those to go to waste.

[ Which she will actually start to place the ghost peppers with some onion and the chocolate on empty dumpling wrappers. As she folds them over carefully and sets them to the side, it should be noted that they look...almost entirely the same as the regular chocolate filled ones from the outside. ]

Stop by and try your luck today with a free stuffed penguin today! Maybe I’ll just let you do all the talking. [ Wait, this is supposed to commemorate the holiday. Whatever. ] Where did you get these aprons, anyway?

I picked them up at the thrift store! I thought we might want to dress the part if we’re cooking for everyone. They’re very unique, aren’t they? I’ve never seen anything like them before!

[ Probably for a good reason. But they're on the Valentine's Day theme, right? ]

They’re perfect.

[ Orihime smiles then turns purposefully to the camera. ]

They’ll be ready soon, so get them while they’re hot!

Wait, were you recording?

[ And then she waves and turns off the feed. ]

Orihime, I hope that the boys like your chocolate.

[because chocolate is for boys on Valentines day, she's safe]

[maskreant]

in America, girls get chocolates on this day, too.

[ you're not safe. ]

[justfists]

[there's a loooong pause between that and this and--]

Unfortunately... I've committed to spend most of the day with my brother. Please understand.

[maskreant]

that's fine. you can have some when you come back.

[justfists]

Akira, please! I... do not want to eat those chocolates.

private;

[maskreant]

eat the normal ones and give the rest to your other roommate.

do what you must to survive.

[justfists]

I don't think Soleil has done anything quite so bad as to deserve that.

private;

[maskreant]

is you or her, Makoto.

private;

[justfists]

I'll find another way around this.

[maskreant]

you are a good person, Makoto.

But I might spend more time with お兄さん, just in case.

private;

[maskreant]

you should bring your brother some penguins.

the normal chocolate ones.

private;

[justfists]

I feel like they might be... too cute for him.

private;

[maskreant]

so he’s a macho man?

i can give his penguins a macho mustache.

[lastcomfort]

Oh, we made some for anyone! I saved some for you and Soliel, don't worry!

[justfists]

Oh, really?

[oh god. she's terrified already, because... well. peppers and onions. the peppers she might be okay with, with lots of water but the onions?!]

I'm going to be with my brother most of the day, so please don't feel it necessary to save any for me.

[lastcomfort]

You're my roommate and you're Akira's friend. Of course we'll save you at LEAST one!

[ No escape. ]

[justfists]

[S O S]

That really is too kind of you. And really generous, given everything that's been happening this month...

[lastcomfort]

To be honest, it's kind of nice to just be making something. Cooking while camping is a little different and cooking has always been a fun and nice way to relax.

[justfists]

Oh... I'm glad you get that opportunity. Perhaps when you're back, we can make bentos together? I miss having company for that.

[lastcomfort]

I'd love too! I have some fun ideas on what we can do with egg.
