[And cue Van arriving to look over Stelle's shoulder as he's still currently invested in baking that cake! He's still very hard at work as there's some cake batter on his cheeks and his apron.]

What'cha doing there, Master? Don't tell me Mare has hogtied you into her usual bullshit.

[And Mare's voice yells within the phone! This won't stop her from making her turn.]

HEY! Quit treating me like I'm trouble! I'm training your Master here to make strategic decisions whenever she's in the heat of combat.

It's okay, it's just a game.

Hah... Tic-tac-toe, huh? Been a while since I've touched that. Anyway, I hope you're looking forward to my cake. It's almost ready now with the finishing touches.

Oooh... Take your time with that baking of yours! Me and Stelle are busy being gal pals over here. ♥

I do look forward to it, at least.

[Once Van leaves to continue cooking, Mare has a bit of a mischievous smile on her face.]

Sweets has always been one of his favorite things. If you wanna be a good Master, then you should pay his hospitability forward to strength your bond!

I don't really have a lot of credits, though.

That's NOT what I mean! Creating something handmade can be just as effective to reaching someone's heart!

I've never made anything before. Unless you count crafting things.

Mostly materials for upgrades.

[ ... ]

Anyway, this game is unwinnable now. Since nobody can get six in a row. Only five.

[vandalizer]

Huh?! Wait... You were paying attenti-- [A beat as she gets flustered.] I mean, of course it is! I was testing your sense of perception the entire time!

[She says as she rematerializes outside of her phone.]

Hmph... Not bad. But we'll have to play more game in the future. Or maybe you can ask Rider to entertain you too. He's played games like chess in the past!

[starwill]

[ Why did you need to test my sense of perception this whole time...

is what Stelle thinks, rather doubtful. ]

That's fine by me. I didn't think that he was much of a gamer, though.

[vandalizer]

He sure is! Once you know what he likes, he becomes a big kid or even a wild animal--

[And it's right there that Van appears out of nowhere to tightly grab Mare in his hand before she continues talking with a very exasperated look.]

--The hell you talking about? Because I know that it wasn't anything 'bout me.

Owowow! Watch it! That's not how you treat a lady!!

[His expression softens whenever he looks at Stelle.]

Anyway, the cake's ready for us. I'm sure dealing with the princess here has worked up an appetite.

[starwill]

It's okay, I would have been hungry regardless.

[vandalizer]

[He'll be guiding Stelle over to the table where a small cake was waiting for them. Van sparkles with pride as he puffs his chest a bit.]

Here it is! It's a mini chocolate ganache cake! I had to make due with some chocolate bars I found and got creative with the frosting.

[starwill]

Ohh... it looks pretty good. Thank you.

[vandalizer]

[He'll be sitting down to cut himself a slice and place it down on a plate, then he cuts another slice for Stelle before offering it to her as well.]

Heh, I'm always looking for ways to improve my cooking. I'm a sweet tooth for a hundred different reasons, but thanks to that... It makes every day a treat.

[starwill]

That was on purpose, wasn't it.

[vandalizer]

Whaddya think of it? Did it get your funny bone tingling?

[starwill]

It wasn't punny enough.

[vandalizer]

Oh? Maybe you should cake it easy more.

[starwill]

I don't really experience slice of life things that often.

[ Not in the genre sort of sense, anyway. ]

[vandalizer]

Well you know the saying... Life is what you bake it! ♪

[No they don't, Van! No one ever says that except you...]

So you've never experienced the joys of going to an amusement park?

[starwill]

[ She shakes her head. ]

If I have, I don't remember it.

[vandalizer]

That so? Well, I've got a little proposal for ya. Though I might be oversteppin' my boundaries here.

[After all, he was treating this like any other contract with a client he's had in the past.]

How about we go to an amusement park together to make some new memories for you? You might be involved in this war, but that's no reason to forget the little moments that are worth fighting of.
