Confessions

t was Christmas Eve in Chaldea and a party was in full swing.

Human and servant alike celebrated the holiday as they laughed, danced and partied the night away, waiting for Christmas day to come.

And in one corner, a certain purple haired, demi-servant, Mash Kyrielight sipped her drink idly as she watched the festivities progress. Her eyes scanned the crowd before landing on a certain master, Ritsuka Fujimaru, who was currently entertaining the child servants with a silly dance.

As Ritsuka struck a particularly silly pirouette, she stifled a giggle and quietly returned to sipping her drink.

"My, my Mash. Still watching Master so closely, even during a party? You're quite the dutiful servant! ...or perhaps, you're staring for some other reason?"

At this Mash yelps in surprise and turns quickly to face the owner of the voice, who turns out to be a smirking Medb, who wore a rather scandalous Santa outfit and a party hat.

"Wh-what are you talking about?!" she stutters nervously, "I'm j-just Senpai's servant after all, it's perfectly natural that I look after him... R-right? "

As Mash stuttered denials Medb merely smirks knowingly and chuckles, "Of course, of course Mash. Obviously it's the duty for a woman to watch over her beloved. I perfectly understand. Why, I was looking for my darling Cu when I saw you staring so intensely at our master."

"B-Beloved?!" Mash's face reddens as the queen's teasing words ring in her head, "Y-You've got that wrong!"

She stutters, quickly waving her hands back and forth in denial, "We're only f-friends I-I don't think about Senpai like that at all! and I-I mean we're busy fighting Solomon aren't we? We should focus on that situation first before thinking about things like that!"

By the end of her heated denials, the demi-servant's face resembled a tomato and her breathes were heaving and heavy, causing the queen's face to turn impish and sly.

She saunters up to the demi-servant and begins to whisper in her ear, "My, My aren't you denying this a bit to strongly perhaps? I wonder what would our master think, oh they would be heart broken to hear how their precious Mash only thinks of them as a friend."

If it were possible, Mash's face burned even redder as she attempted to process Medb's words, "Wh-what?! What are y-you talking about!? does Senpai really think about me that way?"

"Of course," Medb giggles as she takes a step away from Mash, "in fact, everyone in Chaldea really loves watching you two bumble around each other's feelings."

"Wh-what?!" Mash yelps, dropping her cup in surprise, "Senpai is- You all are....? What?!"

"Geez," Medb pouts, as she crosses her arms in irritation "You sound like a broken record. Fine, I'll say it one more time and as clear as I can possibly say it, so listen to my words okay?"

With a deep breath, Medb places her one hand on her hip and jabs one finger at Mash's chest.

"Mash Kyrielight, our Master, Ritsuka Fujimaru likes you. Loves you even, and you love them as well."

"So just get together already, we're all getting tired of waiting." she huffs before turning around and walking into the quiet and eavesdropping crowd, "Oh Cu darling! I see you over there, come and party with me!"

Ignoring the now panicked yells of several Cu Cuchulains Mash Kyrielight stews of the words of Medb and sneaks a peek at her Master, who miraculously stayed unaware of the embarrassing conversation.

With a deep breath, she shakes her head and begins walking over to them.

Hoping to strike up a fateful conversation.
