[ cute dumb children ]

[ Someone--not naming any names because it could've been staff or rich boys or maybe even a very tiny lady--has stuffed a giant and super classy tree strung with fairy lights and little bits of tinsel right smack in the middle of some big giant room in Casa de Kureshima.

Another someone--this one absolutely a very tiny lady--is trotting around its base carefully arranging perfectly wrapped gifts beneath it. A little bell in her hair jingles every time she moves, and overall she seems to be getting into the holiday spirit extremely well.

If anyone should need her, that's where they might find her. ]

[ look at the big happy smile ]

I have felt it many more times since.

[grapesofyan]

And it'll continue on for a very long time.

[hasaringonit]

[ Taking his hand and pressing it to her cheek ]

Kureshima-san is very warm.

[grapesofyan]

Perhaps.

[hasaringonit]

If I can feel it, it must be true.

[grapesofyan]

I'll take your word for it.

[hasaringonit]

[ more cheek kisses ]

[grapesofyan]

Thank you.

[hasaringonit]

It should be I who thanks Kureshima-san.

[grapesofyan]

We both got something out of it.

[hasaringonit]

For the better, I believe.

[grapesofyan]

That much is obvious.

[hasaringonit]

Mm.

[ She has a thoughtful look on her face ]

We may need to do some shopping, soon.

[grapesofyan]

For presents and what else?

[hasaringonit]

A few more decorations, perhaps.

[grapesofyan]

Sure. We'll do that together.

[hasaringonit]

I could not carry them all on my own, of course.

[grapesofyan]

You know I'll always help with that.

[hasaringonit]

Kureshima-san is very reliable in such ways.

[grapesofyan]

Thank you.

[hasaringonit]

We may require having some delivered.

[grapesofyan]

That can be arranged. We can do it today.

[hasaringonit]

After Kureshima-san has had his breakfast.

[grapesofyan]

*Sips more of his tea*

Fine.

[hasaringonit]

What would Kureshima-san like to eat?
