[Luke's in quite a good mood lately. Probably because of all the Christmas cheer going around. He's found that he rather likes the holiday, as it's a chance to give stuff to people without an explanation ( Read more... )

My, don't you look busy.

[She's smiling though.]

[He's already in House 1, and he's just setting out the gifts when Nephry catches him. DAMMIT.

He lets out a sigh, then turns to smile with exasperation.]

Yeah... I was trying to get all this done before anyone caught me.

I could leave the room and return in a few minutes. Or I could invite you to stay for a while. Anise made cookies.

... I wouldn't mind staying for a while. [Cookies. Food really does lead the way to a man's heart.]

[a pleased smile] I was hoping that's what you would choose.

Oh, but I can't stay for too long! I've got a lot of other stuff to drop off. [He gestures to the bag, still at least half full.]

And... here. [He turns to take the snow globe and the note, the one stepped in front of to hide it from Nephry, and then holds it out to her.] I got this for you.

You...what?

[No, she doesn't sound mad or anything. Just...surprised, and touched, with the slightest tremble in her hands as she takes it from him and reads the note.]

I know Keterburg snows all year, so... Maybe this'll make you think of it sometimes. You know, in a good way.

[He glances off to the side. Aaaah what does she think aaaah]

[Does he know she saw it - six Luceti months ago, but it feels like yesterday? Walked in it, even though it was empty?]

...Thank you, Luke. [She's whispering.]

[Not really, but he can take a guess. He saw his home, and Grand Chokmah, and even the Tower of Rem, a place he hasn't been to yet. If he could visit the manor, his own room, then it isn't a far cry to think that Nephry got to walk through Keterburg.]

Y-Yeah. I know it's not exactly the same, but... It's the closest I could get to it.

It's beautiful. Thank you for thinking of me.

[She puts it carefully on the table and goes to get him the promised cookies]

Uh... you're welcome.

[Luke glances at the gift, then moves to follow Nephry for the kitchen. Nephry's cooking is always something Luke can stick around for.]

I still wish we had this kind of holiday in Auldrant...
