Okay, so! Gonna explain some things in case anyone see this aren't already aware of the context.

Pocky is a Japanese snack food, it's basically a biscuit stick coated in different flavors. Chocolate is the classic one, but there's also pocky in strawberry, banana, and a whole bunch of other flavors! One particular flavor will be the focus of the next pages. :D

Pocky Day is an actual holiday in Japan! It's on November 11th, and that date was chosen partly because the numbers involved (11/11) are meant to be similar to pocky sticks held up together. Meanwhile the pocky kiss thing is a sort of party game that people do. You know that one scene from the Lady and the Tramp movie, with the dogs eating spaghetti and ending up kissing? Like that, but with pocky! People will often draw fan art of their favorite ships doing the pocky kiss. :>

Which is, of course, what I'm doing here!! It's well after the 11th by now, but I've wanted to do something with Maddy and Match for this holiday. And now I finally am! Two more pages after this!~ :P
