melodiesoflife | Christmas Party & Cheer

WHO: OPEN
WHEN: FORWARD DATED: December 22nd
WHERE: Christmas Town
WHAT: Celebrating the snow, the holidays, good cheery, warm fires and friends.
WARNING: Mistletoe?

With Rukia's help they were able to find a large enough hall in Christmas Town to throw the party. Zelda had set it for this day since a group of brave heroes were going to set out on the 24th. She had made sure that everything was perfect and of course everyone was invited. There were at least six decorated trees with polished silver and gold ornaments hanging from their branches. Scarlet red ribbons decorated the trees and tables with large bows tying the streaming trails together.

There was one very large tree at the halls center and there were a few presents around the bottom for those who needed a place to put gifts. At it's top was a large pointed star.

Champagne and small finger snacks were set on the tables and a part of the room was cleared for those who wanted to dance. Zelda was even able to hire a few people to play Christmas songs throughout the night. There was a table dedicated to sweets with cookies, cakes, small pies and other wonderful treats spread out for people to try.

Among the decorations was mistletoe. This little plant hung above the doorways waiting for any pair who happens to be caught in their hold. Most of the mistletoe was thanks to Minako but Zelda might have put up one sprig at the entrance to the party; it's all in good fun and kisses on the hand or cheek are perfectly acceptable.

[For reasons probably only she understands, Chiaki has come to the party dressed as Batman. She'll happily explain that if anyone asks, but it may not make any more sense - be warned.

As for presents, she has a number of small canvases lined up in an otherwise vacant corner with the names of people she knows on them. She's done pixel paintings for her friends in her spare time at her shop in the Santa village. If you know her, come and get yours!

And concerning mistletoe, Chiaki hasn't really figured out that particular tradition yet. It's pretty easy for anyone who feels the need to educate her on this to find her standing under one, staring up at it quizzically.]

Huh... this doesn't look like a missile or a toe.

Mistletoe.

[Yuffie's voice rings clearly from behind Chiaki while moving around her friends otherside. She then kissed the girl on the cheek with a bright smile pulling at her lips afterwards.]

If you meet someone underneath then you have to kiss.

[Though Yuffie is totally okay with cheek kisses since she wasn't sure Chiaki wanted to be kissed on the lips.]

[Chiaki's cheeks go slightly pink at that, and she blinks at Yuffie with a vacant expression for a few moments before responding.]

...Do I have to kiss you back?

[Yuffie just laughs.]

Only if you want but you don't have too. The kiss is already done.

Okay. I won't, then.

[Kissing is weird.]

[Yuffie resists the urged to roll her eyes.]

Now you know about Mistletoe.

[The ninja's large dark eyes then fix to the food table.]

Now it's time for me to introduce myself to the snacks.

Okay. Have fun.

[Cloud on the other hand has remained in his festive costume and is even playing up the Santa role at the party, handing out little gifts to all present.

However even Chiaki's costume manages to make the eager Santa Cloud falter a bit.

Curious, and with a gift in hand for her, he walks over with a smile all the same.]

Ho ho ho. That's an interesting costume you have there. Is it something from your own world's Starlight Celebration?

[Chiaki smiles back, nodding.]

Yup. It's the main character from my favorite Christmas-themed video game, Batman Returns.

[It does take place on Christmas Eve, after all. Just like the movie.]

Batman, huh? So is he part of the holiday in your world? Does he fly around and deliver presents?

[In truth it doesn't make much sense to Cloud, especially with the Job filling him with the mood of the season. Bats are definitely not in the motif. But still, who is he to judge another world's traditions.]

No, he drives around and beats up guys wearing clown masks.

[Because that makes sense.]

Clowns? What does he have against them?

[I mean, besides them being clowns of course. Cloud can't completely blame him but it hardly seems to be in the Starlight Spirit.]

They're criminals.

[She's very matter of fact about this.]

[What? That just makes this bat person sound just as bad.]

Does he beat up all clowns? They can't ALL be criminals, can they? Does he beat up the ones who aren't too?

No, just the bad ones. But they're the only clowns in the game anyway.

Oh...I guess that makes more sense then. So then why is he a bat? And you said he 'returns'. Is this a sequel or something?

...I don't know.

[She's only played the game, never read the comics or watched the movies.]

But yeah, there were other games in the series.

Ah, I see...well I hope your Starlight Celebration goes without any criminal clowns to cause trouble.

I hope so too. It'll be up to me to stop them if they do.

Christmas Party & Cheer
