Christmas Party & Cheer

[goddessofthesky]

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.

[ Rather than her words, it's her immediate reaction that slightly confuses the cadet, for the unfortunate implication manages to go over his head... like most such things normally do. ]

... Okay, Bulma. My name is Ace, and it's nice to meet you.

[ The boy nods encouragingly. Not the handshake type of person, is she? That's fine, too - in fact, he's going to follow in her footsteps and place his own hands at his sides. ]

I have been summoned here, yes. [ While there are plenty of conflicting feelings still lingering in the back of his mind, he's moved on from outright rebelling against the Crystal's call to seeing his mission in a slightly different light. There was a reason behind it all. ] My Moogle should be floating somewhere around, probably making sure that everyone can hear her.

[Her head tilts, hair falling down just into her vision as a hand raises to tuck it back behind her ear.]

I hope I'm not the only one who finds it odd that we're all paired to these flying rangers like we're supposed to be under supervision at all hours of the day. Please tell me yours doesn't follow you every where you go.

[Her own moogle had yet to learn about specific boundaries, or at least not floating above her so that her first sight in the morning is Serori's curious mug.]

I can't help but think things aren't what they seem, but I suppose it is nice that we get to enjoy the holidays like "normal" people.

[confidentia]

[ The originality of the mention of flying rangers earns a soft snicker from the boy, so used to the sight of the fluffy creatures that it has never really struck him to think of it from such perspective. Despite being occasionally troublesome in their behaviour, he knows the Moogles are trying their best. ]

Well, not everywhere. [ That would be a little bit too much. ] You could always temporarily send them off, though I'd advise that you focus on finding some common ground. That'll make a lot of things easier.

[ There is no fooling anyone that the gathering has been built on a rather shaky ground, but there seems to be no harm in it as long as it manages to lift people's spirits. ]

You could consider it a strategically planned break that's meant to take people's minds off things. [ He tilts his head, wondering what the meaning of normal even is. Following her logic, he couldn't exactly apply that description to himself. ] ... We didn't have anything like that back home.
