So far, he'd managed to go a decent while without attracting too much attention, but it seemed that wasn't fated to last. Fortunately, he didn't look too bloody and he wasn't carrying a weapon, but he still looked worn out and a bit pained. Seeing someone looking at him out of the corner of his eye, he questioned in an annoyed drawl, "What do you want?" without even looking to see who it was.

Taking the shortcut through the park had been a bad idea, he knew that the moment he had seen how packed out the park was. What kind of inconsiderate person held a public gathering on Christmas Day? Weaving through the gathering people he spotted his brother out of the corner of his eye and moved over to him, shooting him a piercing look as he sneered “Is that any way to speak to your dear big brother?”

Shifting and subconsciously pulling the trenchcoat around himself more tightly, he added, "Or, don't tell me, you're volunteering as the local fun police!"

He was currently sitting alone, isolated from most of the family crowd; he'd been dragged there by Nana (but had been intending to go anyway, mainly because he was determined not to have another year of being assaulted by carollers at his apartment or assaulted by a drunken Heidegger at the Shin-Ra Christmas party), but the girl had since vanished into thin air. (It was probably for the best, as now he'd be able to get some work done.)

Apparently not having vanished for long, Nana abruptly bounced up beside the man, plopping down cross-legged onto the picnic blanket she'd spread out earlier, folding her long peasant-skirt neatly over her legs and giving him a pouty, unimpressed look. "Sephiroth is supposed to be enjoying Christmas night, not working!" Nudge, nudge.
It was a sheer miracle that she'd managed to get him out in the first place, but Nan was all over, very proud of herself. She'd not only managed to make the man stay home all day, but gotten him to do one of their first, what she called, 'family activities'.
If only he'd put his silly computer down.
Grinning a little, the pink-haired girl wrapped her arms around one of his, resting her head against his shoulder with a content noise and waiting for him to shut off the laptop.

He nudged her away, typing a rather decided 'PROMOTION DECLINED' into someone's file and adding in a clearly distracted tone, "Go and play with your friends."

The thought of snatching the laptop clean off him with two vectors, and either crushing it or throwing it into a tree, briefly crossed Nana's cute but mischievous little mind. She eyed it dangerously for a few moments, before sighing and letting the idea drop away.
"Nana's friends went off to sit with their families," she replied to his last prompt, with quite a 'hint, nudge' kind of air.

"Almost makes you wish for a life like that, doesn't it," she sighed to herself, suddenly depressed. It was a silly thing to admit, really.

Deciding that a more cheerful conversation was in order, she smiled again, much more warmly this time. "What brings you here?"

She gave another sigh, closing her eyes and relaxing in the crisp night air for just a moment. This isn't right, I'm going home. Decided, she opened her eyes, sitting up and getting to her feet, collecting her belongings and turning to leave. As she tried to make her way out of the somewhat crowded area, she ended up bumping into someone, flushing red. "Ah! Sorry!"

"No, it's my fault, miss..." She trailed off. "Miss..."

Suddenly, a poking sensation in his right shoulder startled him from his daydream land of Hot Chocolate and him..
"What is it?" He asked, turning around to face whomever it was.
Reply
"You forgot the sensation of your own brother poking you?" he asked, looking slightly upset. However, he slightly cheered up immediately, and then asked, "what is it that you caused you to stand and stare into space for five minutes, hmm?"
Reply
"Hikaru! I Thought you were staying home!" Kaoru gave his brother a huge bright smile, lighting up his face. "And... I was just thinking. The hot chocolate is a catalyst for nice thoughts." he chuckled.

"Hot chocolate?" he questioned. "I swear, you like more commoner stuff by the day, don't you?"
