The Most Wonderful Party of the Year

[lastfonmasterguardian]

Who: Anyone and everyone!
Where: Cuppa Kupo
When: December 23rd
Summary: It's time for Cuppa Kupo's first annual Christmas Party! The party details are in an OOC post here and an IC post .
Warnings: None! (At the moment, anyway).





[It's the 23rd of December, and, as promised, Kuppa Cupo has opened its doors for the first (and hopefully not last) Christmas/Starlight party!]

[The entire restaurant is decorated for the season, complete with a large tree near the entrance. The ceiling is covered in lights, and the tables all have matching red and green tablecloths. Near the wall, the catering table is packed with food.]

[Even the helper moogles are taking part in the festivities, with many of them wearing elf or santa costumes. Whether you came early to help set up, or arrived fashionably late, enjoy!]

[Selphie's still a kid to most of the people that she's met in Crystallis but talking about what happened in her world was not one of the things that she liked to talk about. She doesn't want to talk about the fact that she had to fight the woman who raised her. She doesn't want to talk about being an orphan again and she definitely doesn't want to talk about Time Compression. For all she knew, they hadn't won the final battle at all and that was unnerving thought that didn't need discussing at a Starlight Party.

She forces a smile that doesn't go up to her eyes but she's hoping that Duster won't pick up on the notion that she's faking it right then and there.]

We ended the war and it's about the stuff that most wars are about. Everybody was okay in the end.

[Her tone is soft and serious and layered with a thick tone of finality. This isn't the time or the place to talk about stupid wars that she may or may not have helped to start.]

[She wasn't very convincing. Lucas did his best to put on a brave face despite losing his mother and brother, especially sine his father rarely came home after the tragedy. He had to survives despite the other villagers keeping their distance from him. There is a clear difference between a smile caused by happiness and a smile to cause happiness.

"Everyone was okay in the end."

He hopes so.

The concerned look on his face doesn't go away.]

...Do you want to try out the snack table? We can sneak some things from there before the party starts.

[Selphie pulled a small bag of treats from a handily hidden pocket with a knowing smile. She reaches out to pat Duster on the arm as she continues setting the tables with practiced movements.]

I've got it covered. The main cook at the cafe knows I tend to sneak treats out of the kitchen so I was given this bag of sweets before I could get my hands on anything else. He tends to get annoyed if you sneak things out so I'd sneak at your own risk.

Offer to test out his new creations however and you'll get all you can eat!

[She really is okay, Duster. She doesn't know you very well. She gives everyone she meets for the first time a guarded smile.]

[He catches it effortlessly with one hand, giving it a quick look. Those sweets can be saved for later or given away.]

Did you make these, or is it something the cafe isn't selling just yet?
