ugh sorry so late also too lazy to find icons

[dramakingsuoh]

Have you been shopping already?

Don't worry about it! o/ And- timing this to before her talk with Lobelia if that's okay? 8D;;

[magique_bonbon]

Ah, Tamaki! Actually, I just got back.

no prob

[dramakingsuoh]

Well, that's a pity, though I suppose it gives me more time to seek a gift for you. If only it were possible to find something that could match your beauty.

[magique_bonbon]

[She's used to this after the past few years! ... mostly.] ... h-honestly, you haven't changed a bit, have you?

[dramakingsuoh]

I would change in any way you wished me to, but my adoration for you would never change at all.

[magique_bonbon]

I see... [She smiles, but it's mostly on reflex at this point.] Well, it's good to know that there are some things that will remain constant in this town. Especially since...

[She trails off into silence. This time of the year, Coquelicot tends to get lost in thought more often than not.]

[dramakingsuoh]

[Just a fond smile and puts an arm around her waist]

Then I suppose I'll always remain constant for you.

Snow on Christmas, that's another lovely constant, isn't it? It's always a pleasure when the weather changes.

[magique_bonbon]

[Well, she puts a hand on his arm, but she doesn't push it away- that's probably a good sign. The fact that she's looking at the floor? Probably not such a good sign.]

[After a moment, she looks up at the sky, smiling a little.] ... you're right. If there's one good thing about this town, it's that we'll always have a white Christmas.

[dramakingsuoh]

Mm!

Tonight, shall we decorate the tree? I simply hope I won't put you on top by mistake!

[magique_bonbon]

Sure, why not? While we're at it, we should probably get the presents wrapped-

[Whoa, wait, that second statement is just enough to throw her off her game for a moment.] Eh? What do you mean by that?

[dramakingsuoh]

If I mistook you for a star or an angel, of course! Such a thing could happen easily.

[magique_bonbon]

P-Pfft. [She can't help it anymore- Coquelicot just starts laughing.]

[dramakingsuoh]

[Well, that's a good thing, even if it is at his expense, so he smiles and laughs along with her.]

But it truly is possible!

[magique_bonbon]

[She shakes her head, grinning wryly.] Trust me, I've seen an angel before... I'll never be able to compare to someone like her.

[She glances back at him, her amusement fading, and abruptly changes the subject.] How do you do it, Tamaki...?

[dramakingsuoh]

Ehh? Do what?
