[Dot dot dot. Siiiigh. He's getting better at handling the ghosts, now, and after Naoya healed his stab wound, he's finding it even easier to ignore the ghost of Leila--

And he stands.]

Yes, it is. So?

[A laugh and she's pulling him over to the kitchen. Noooot getting away even if you try, Matty.]

So you need to stop being such a party pooper. Now that you're all patched up, let's make use of your able-bodied-.... ness!

[an oh-so-wise nod]

I know it doesn't matter much to you, but humor me here. I love Christmas.

[TOWED. And he follows willingly enough, looking both amused and bemused.]

Alright, alright. And what are we doing for Christmas?

A number of things! We need to call Billy later for sure before the guy spends his Christmas alone, and I need to drop things off at Obi and Zen's. All the social niceties that should be taken care of before noon- and then we treat ourselves to dinner in the evening! Best dining opportunity of the year. And you need eggnog! Lots of eggnog! Opening presents somewhere along the way would be nice.

[This seems to have nothing to do with why she's dragging him into the kitchen though.]

But we have a couple minutes before then so- we start at midnight on the dot!

[Hellooooo 11:59.]

[...Tiredly, he sighs.]

Start what at midnight, Saya?

[A broad gesture to all the ingredients on the table.]

The making of gingerbread men and their houses!

Or well, that's how it's supposed to go. Tradition says they live in quaint little houses the size of a milk carton but our gingerbread men should live in swag. Maybe a mansion? Or what's more prestigious than that?

[A grin. He's slowly getting into this, anyway.]

A castle, of course. What else?

Gingerbread... castle?

[pfffff. She's laughing at him, yep.]

Should I leave that to you then, Sir Matthew?

[not imitating obi what on earth are you accusing her of]

[He rolls his eyes, but knows what she's up to.]

You're the one who asked, you know.

[He inspects the ingredients.]

I take it the frosting is to hold it all together?

[Let's presume she's taught him most of these foods by this point. :|;;]

[Nodding!]

Use the graham crackers and licrorice and marshmallows and- the rest of the stuff as you want.

I'll get set on making the gingerbread men themselves, I guess!

[He gives her a mock salute and sets to building said gingerbread castle.

...do not comment on his attention to detail. He has spent the majority of his life sneaking around castles, memorizing their layouts, etc etc.

It's shaping up to look...pretty detailed.]

[.... well, she got to work on the gingerbread and by the time midnight rolled around, she completely forgot to check the time. So capable, right?

In fact, she doesn't even seem to realize that Creed disappeared, occupied as she is.

Not to mention Matthew's castle is totally more worthy of her attention.]

.... Are we adding architecture to your list of possible career paths?

[...Matthew hasn't realized his own ghost is gone either, distracted as he is adding those little slits for the archers to fire through--

He blinks, looking up, and then laughs.]

If I don't know castles by now, I'd be a pretty poor spy.

[She grins at that and just looks incredibly amused as she continues to prepare the dough itself.]

Master gingerbread castle maker, then.

[Smiiiile.]

I'll add it to the list of titles, then.

[The castle clearly needs a moat. brb building a moat out of frosting.]

I wonder if you keep mental records of everything I say.

[Dragging a finger through some of that frosting moat and having a taste~ That is not counter-productive at all.]
