A Christmas Party appears!

[combat_butler]

Who: OPEN to anyone in Goldenrod who would like to attend!
Where: isthedeadcat's soon-to-be Tea House!
When: Forward dated to Christmas Day, around 5ish PM to QUESTION MARKS???
Summary: Hayate and Yayoi put together a party with the help of some friends, so it's time come enjoy it, Goldenrod!
Rating: PG as can be, hopefully!
Log:
It wasn't often that Hayate had a hand in preparing for a party outside of catering or cooking, so this was a whole new world for the butler... Which is why he was glad he had so much assistance from his wonderful friends! With Lion providing the locale, a whole slew of people helping him and Yayoi decorate... It was all looking pretty good! Which is why when the time came to start the party itself, he was rather relaxed.

... Now if only he could find a way to get rid that inflatable Santa someone had put up by the karaoke machine...

--erk!!

... ... is... is it that obvious?

[bewilding]

Just a little. [ understatement of the year, really, and her playful tone kind of implies as much. ]

[combat_butler]

Ah... Well... Um... It.. It's kind of hard not to be right now-!

[bewilding]

I'm sure it's fine. [ she lifts the present up a bit. ] Am I allowed to open it?

[ she's not... used to this stuff. ]

[combat_butler]

Y-Yes! Of course you are-! *flailing ever so slightly* Please do...!

[bewilding]

[ she's opening this a little bit quickly but carefully, yes.

once she sees what's inside, judith kind of. pauses. it's not a bad one, though--it's pensive. ]

. . . Thank you, Hayate. [ she sounds incredibly sincere. HOW DOES RECEIVING THINGS WORK. ]

[combat_butler]

... eh? *Hayate on the other hand just looks completely caught off guard by that sincerity. He was expecting something a bit different... Which is why he's turning more than a little red while he raises his hands to wave in front of him.*

N-No--! I mean, um-- Y-You're very welcome! I-- I'm just glad to know that you like it all-!

[bewilding]

[ she's still staring at the gifts, before she realizes that maybe she should look at hayate. still so unsure how to feel about this. ]

Mm. I really like it. [ give her a second to put on the hat. ]

[combat_butler]

*He is noticeably fidgeting a bit, not out of worry for once, just because... he's honestly pretty damn happy to hear that she likes it.*

Ehehe... *It's hard not to giggle laugh when he finally opens his mouth again.* I-I hope that fits okay...

[bewilding]

[ she cranes her head a bit, modelling the accessory. doesn't it look amazing. c:

a flip of the flaps. a small chuckle. ]

Perfectly, I think.

[combat_butler]

E... ehehe... I-It looks good on you, Judith-san! ... a-and I'm not just saying that because I bought it for you, either! It really does!
