[He kind of tilts his head at her a little before accepting the box; he hadn't been sure what to do with the first set of things, so receiving something else is a bit surprising.]

Aneki, you didn't have to...

[He's unwrapping it, though, even if he takes a bit too long fiddling with the paper before he moves to do it.

...then he actually gets a look at it and um.]

That's...really interesting! Where did you even get these?

[Because he just. Um.

What.]

[nostabbing]

[Oh. Uh-oh. No, no, no, wait, hold up —]

I paid for them!

[She clarifies, with urgency.]

They're vegetables.

[like that

explains

...

everything]

1/2

[ardent]

[Wh -

OH.

NO NO NO NO HANG ON - ]

No, no, I know you did, it's okay!

[ardent]

[...that said, however, he just kind of looks down at them for a moment before something seems to click over.]

...So they're vegetarian.

[nostabbing]

Yes. And chocolate.

[Which is also very important, as far as Parker is concerned.]

It's vegetarian chocolate.

[And with that further clarification, she just kind of waits expectantly, because amidst all this cognitive gear-turning, she still hasn't actually been able to pick up a gauge as to whether or not he actually likes it.]

[ardent]

That's...!

[How do you even describe what this is.]

...That's actually really cute.

[Close enough. He's not sure what to do with his face, but...]

[nostabbing]

[...Wait, hold on, what just —]

You mean the chocolate...?

["Cute" is not necessarily the adjective she would use to describe chocolate but she's at least reasonably sure that he's not talking about her, so...]

[ardent]

Well, yes!

[...are we failing to communicate here or]

Either way, though, I like it!

[nostabbing]

I guess they are pretty cute.

[...Maybe this is a vegetarian thing.

Maybe vegetarians just...find vegetables to be cute, that's probably it, yes okay good we've cracked the code life goes on.

...Well, at least until she remembers that Alice White is supposed to be a vegetarian too, but that is a problem for another day and a person who is not Ishimaru, because she's Parker and Aneki around Ishimaru, not Alice.

...

Merry Christmas!

[ardent]

[...one day, he will have to teach you how to act like a proper vegetarian, seriously.]

Merry Christmas to you too!

[...can he hug you because he sort of wants to hug you]

[nostabbing]

[Evidently yes because look at that, she just did the semi-awkward half-opening-of-arms thing that either makes her look like a really droopy Frankenstein's monster or attempting to take rough measure of the distance between the outer edges of each of her knees.]

Did you kiss anybody yet?

[ardent]

[Yes, well, just let him hug you, okay - ...wait.]

...What do you mean, "yet"?

[nostabbing]

Like, before-now yet. Not like expected-to yet.

[...]

You don't have to kiss anybody even if they're under mistletoe when you are too.

[ardent]

I've been taking all that down, anyway!

[ >:| ]

But no, I haven't. Why?

[nostabbing]

I took down some of it earlier. The harness is pretty good for that, if you can get the cable over a ceiling beam or something.

[Parker...]

Mondo was worrying about it earlier this week. Kissing.

[ardent]

Ah...he tends to have problems with girls, yes! So I can see why.

[#TACT]

[nostabbing]

Yeah, I know. He shouts at them and gets caught up in saying stuff he thinks will make them like him instead of stuff he actually means. Which would probably make them like him.

[ardent]

Well, I'm sure he'll find someone eventually!

[...what else is he supposed to say about this]

[nostabbing]

Maybe.

[And following a moment or two of apparent :|a about this, that seems to settle things for her.]

We should play pool.

[ardent]

Okay - he said he'd play with me later anyway, so I don't see why all of us couldn't!

[...that is what you meant, right.]

[nostabbing]

[...Wait.]

But you can't play three-way pool. You need even numbers.

[... :|a ]

Chiaki could come along too.

[ardent]

Ah, Nanami-kun?

[... :|a ]

I promised to teach her before, actually.

[nostabbing]

Great! We should bring her. Then it's even and you can teach her. Two birds with one stone or whatever.

[ardent]

...Where are we bringing her?

[We have a perfectly acceptable pool table here, where are we going - ]

[nostabbing]

To the bar to play pool.

[And away from the house full of chatter and crazy people.]
