[That morning, if one is lucky enough to catch a glimpse, if someone just believes...they may see Ms. Clause walking around Luceti. What is she doing? Well, she's trying to find the grocery store so she can put up a certain flier. She has some spring in her step today, and she'll smile at anyone she sees...but that's just like every day! Ah, well,

[O-oh, this is the best surprise of the morning.]

I trust you, Miss~! I trust my very heart and soul to your smile~!

[how much of that actual message he listened to is up for debate.]

Finger foods would work best - or anything quick and easy to snack on.

[Video]

[bridal_idol]

You think so? Hmm...I was thinking something sweet and exciting like that would make for a perfect snack...I suppose I'll try to think of something else.

[Video]

[odastillhatesme]

Oi oi, I didn't mean you should give up on that idea! I'm sure croquembouche would be the life of the party.

But it always helps to have a few back-ups.

[bridal_idol]

Well...it's Christmas, so coffee is a given, isn't it? Let's see...and maybe...fruitcake?

[This is why she's not a caterer.]

[odastillhatesme]

That sounds--!

[odastillhatesme]

[Fruitcake? Even Sanji avoids that stuff (at least when everyone else makes it)]

[Video]

[odastillhatesme]

Why not uh... cookies! And chocolate.

You know how to make peppermint bark, Azusa-chan?

[Video]

[bridal_idol]

Don't you think you can have those anytime, though? If not fruitcake, then maybe...gingerbread!

[She hums softly. No one really eats that, either...]

We should have something healthy, though, too, shouldn't we?

[odastillhatesme]

["Holidays" and "healthy" are not words he usually associates with one other. Hmm. He scratches lightly at his neck in thought]

Maaaah, that's true. If you're looking for something more special... Gingerbread cookies?

And maybe a vegetable platter? Or different types of sandwiches.

[Video]

[bridal_idol]

[She's just listing foods she thinks would be nice at this point.]

Sandwiches would be nice, yes...oh, and perhaps some tea, too. It will be too early for beer...and maybe some hot chocolate...

[Video]

[odastillhatesme]

Hot chocolate and tea it is~!

Anything else we should put on the list? [Since she has suddenly become his food muse in this regard]

[Video]

[bridal_idol]

What do you think? You're the chef, right? My, I've never hosted a party before...I really don't know.

[Video]

[odastillhatesme]

That'll depend on the number of people participating in your Secret Santa, and how long they're gonna stay. Like I said, finger foods will be the biggest hit. [he massages the back of his neck]

Croquembouche, sandwiches, gingerbread cookies... maybe holiday brownies. Then the drinks... [He's talking outloud by this point]

[Video]

[bridal_idol]

I'll be sure to let you know how many sign up, then. Those all sound wonderful...

[She says that quietly! She's going to listen to him ramble without interrupting.]

[Video]

[odastillhatesme]

[He meets a pretty lady and she unwittingly derails him with food. Such is his life.

He mumbles on for a few moments more - how much to make, who he's gonna drag to work that day, if he should loan out the entire restaurant for this shindig - before straightening, and readjusting his focus back to Azusa. He looks a tad embarraseed]

... Ah-- sorry, Azusa-chan! I didn't mean to ignore you.
