メリー クリスマス - Merry Christmas, everybody. I sent the oseibo already, but I have your presents. I know is more traditional for us to get them only to our real close friends and relatives, but since I don't have family here and most of my friends are in this place, I hope you enjoy them.

Huh. Snow without disastrous side effect makes me wary about

Ah- you made that?

[reginagloriae]

Huh. I did. Even if I'm like the opposite right now, my parents wanted me to be a good housewife. I picked up some skills.

[youdeservedit]

It looks absolutely delicious.

this is after her visit?

[reginagloriae]

Thanks, would you like me to save a piece for you? Although I'm sure Tohru bakes better than I do.

[reginagloriae]

I'd rather proud of that one. The others I baked weren't half as good. Do you want some?

[guardianjoker]

Really? Ah, well sure I'd like to try some.

Yeah. I have lost my touch after those months in Kinpa. Great.

Merry Christmas.

...Thank you for the present.

[reginagloriae]

Merry Christmas, Setsuna. You're welcome and thank you for the present.

[denyinurgod]

You are also welcome.

[reginagloriae]

Did you ever read that book?

[anoblemouse]

It is a beautiful cake, Lady Youko. Are Christmas cakes tradition where you are from?

[reginagloriae]

Thanks, Sir Reepicheep.

They are, there's also a nasty saying linking them and the marriageable age of girls.

[anoblemouse]

Nasty? How so?

[reginagloriae]

It's really sexist. There is this belief that, like Christmas Cakes, no matter if the girl is still "delicious", she's past her past "sell-by date" after she turns twenty five, like Christmas Cakes will be left on the shelf after that date.
