On New Year's, provided nothing occurs, we're going to be having a little party at the hotel. Nothing to fancy, just some drink and food while we watch the ball drop. I expect most of you to be there. And yes, Kanda, that includes you.

[Certain persons will find these gifts on their doorstep on Christmas Eve.]

Klaus > A monocle and porn. Porn set in a science lab.
Issei > A chain for his glasses and homemade baked goods.
Neah > ~~No detention.~~ A book about respecting your elders, and homemade baked goods.
Saori > A sweater and homemade coffee cake.
Kaiji > Receives a coffee set and a note congratulating him on his relationship with Saori. It sounds vaguely threatening.
Lancer (Dia) > An Irish travel brochure.
Devola > Baked goods and a reminder to come by the school for the piano.
Tatsuma > A gift card to a local restaurant.
Garvi > A gift card to Felix's.
Kanda > Baked goods, a restaurant gift card, and rather girly ribbon for his hair.

Everyone else she knows > Candy

I'd love to come. And thank you.

I'll mark you down for it. And I hope you enjoy, I made those sweets myself.

They're delicious.

[Pleased] Thank you. It's an old recipe.

You have an excellent skill.

[She preens. You're going to give her a big head.]

I have had years to practice.

I wonder if you and Emiya could go head-to-head in cooking.

Emiya is a good chef then?

A fantastic one. I've met none better.

I would like to sample his cooking then. Maybe I could learn to improve.

I'm sure that could only result in wonderful things for all of us.

[She laughs.]

Might certainly make our dinner-get togethers better.

Exactly. I fully support this.

Sounds like a great idea. I'll be coming for sure and as always I'm ready to help with food prep.

I would love to have the help, dear.

I had a lot of fun with Thanksgiving so I'm looking forward to helping you. And of course, thank you very much for the Christmas gifts.

You're welcome. I thought you may enjoy them.

Thank you for the book and pastries. [Wow. He... actually doesn't sound mad.]

[What? Did her trolling efforts fail?]

You're welcome. I though you'd appreciate them.

[He's going to get fat eating all these Christmas pastries...

Maybe. He'd probably just get snarky, but it's a holiday! Gifts are gifts.]

Merry Christmas to you, Mrs. Barnes.

And Merry Christmas to you as well. I must say, that wasn't the reaction I expected.

Gifts are gifts, Ingrid. Even if we do clash heads at times. [BESIDES, HE MIGHT ACTUALLY READ THE BOOK AND STOP THE ART OF TROLLING.

Maybe.] Perhaps I could learn something new from this book.

... "Perhaps."

I wager you could, if you gave it a chance. [She laughs.] Happy holidays, dear.

I'll come. Thank you very much!

You're welcome dear. We'll be glad to see you there.

Mm! It will be fun.

I hope it will be. It's always better to ring in the new year with a group.

Then we can all enjoy each others company.

As well as we can! [Re:Klaus and Ingrid may be in the same room, 'enjoy' may not be the right word]

As... well as you can?

[Why can't we all just be friends...]

Some of the personalities here clash, surely you've noticed. But we can play polite for one night.

...

I hope it goes smoothly then.

Don't fret. I'll make sure everyone acts like adults.

Ingrid, what in the name of red fire is this?

[That porn is being brandished at you, Ingrid. Klaus seems more amused than angry, which is good, maybe? He's wearing the monocle, anyway.

Over his missing eye.]

[She's trying not to laugh.]

Why Klaus, I thought a man of your age and intelligence would have knowledge of such things. Do I need to have the 'talk' with you?

[If you weren't a lady he'd walk down the hall and punch you in the face, Ingrid. Lovingly, of course.]

I know what it is. By 'this' I was more referring to it being a Christmas gift from you of all people. If you're going to explain anything to me, it will be how that mind of yours works. Specifically, why you thought something that included a story titled...

[He checks the back cover.]

... 'Dopplegang-bang' was a good idea.

Edited 2011-12-24 19:45 (UTC)

[Klaus that's sexist. She can take a punch, possibly better than some men.]

You're an intelligent man; I'm sure you can figure out my reasons.

...Besides, I was assured it was one of the better ones to order.

[She can take a punch but she's too ~gentle~ to fight zombies. Priorities, Ingrid. Having your face eaten is kind of worse than getting it punched.]

Who on earth-- did you actually consult someone about this?

[Never mind that he may be intelligent but he has no idea where this came from. He assumes it was to bait him, but if so, mixed up with a very different message and is frankly sending cross signals.]

Edited 2012-01-05 05:50 (UTC)

I don't feel like it.

[But he does appreciate the baked goods and food card. Ribbon winds up in his pony plush's hair, y'know.]

I don't recall asking you feelings on the matter; just asking you to show up.

It's my way of saying "no."

And why not? Popping in for an hour or so won't kill you. You might even enjoy it.

Because I don't feel like it.

[Kanda she is just giving you a look.]

[Stubborn refusal! Let him hermit in peace, old lady!]

[No peace as long as she's living, young man.]

Kanda, come now, it's not like I'm asking you to do something difficult.

Says you!

Yes, says me!
