[besomeothername]

[In preparation for the holiday season, the Dressing Room has gone out of its way to decorate a fair number of the evergreens into Christmas trees. There is no method to the madness as only some of the trees outside have decorations and an even more random number of trees indoors have lights and tinsel and ornaments

... You okay?

[besomeothername]

[Spitting out a piece of tinsel]

Never better. Though if I want to be Santa this year, I'm going to have to work on my aim.

[stainedlotus]

[Not gonna lie you look ridiculous like that.]

Need some help?

[besomeothername]

[The most ridiculous]

If you would be so kind, yeah. Just be careful with the cutting. I have very delicate skin.

[crazedprice]

[...Nice entrance. Pretty sure that's not supposed to happen.

You okay there?]

[besomeothername]

[Waves a little sheepishly at Kanda, which causes more ornaments to fall to their deaths down below]

What do I have to do to get you to never speak of this again? If you could speak, of course.

Hypothetically.

[reaptheprice]

[Gives a shrug. He's kinda tempted to take out his phone and take a picture. Kinda. He's not that mean.

Maybe.]

Dunno. Do I get to take a picture?

[besomeothername]

Only if you put it on my Christmas card. If it's getting framed, I want it framed with style.

[tempersword]

[Jeez boy you are loud. Enough she can hear him out in the hallway.

But she'll go investigate the crash, stopping in the doorway before coming around the room to the tree.

She only gets about halfway before she stops again, catching immediately just who it is.] Lavi?

[besomeothername]

[She loves him for it]

[Brushing broken bits of shatter proof ornaments out of his year. Yeah, someone was going to have to have a word with the manufacturer. He blink before he twists and turns to see her properly. Lavi knew that voice from anywhere]

Love~ ♥ I made it back in time for Christmas.

[tempersword]

You--[Love. He just called her Love. He's still him even if he did go home.

Darts the rest of the way, dropping to her knees (or kneeling, standing, whatever she has to do to reach him) and wrapping her arms around him tightly.]

[besomeothername]

[Makes a bit of an eep sound. He wasn't quite expecting that. But when the shock wears off, he disentangles an arm enough to gently run his fingers through her hair. And he leans over to place a kiss on her cheek]

I'm sorry, Love.

[Sorry for making her worry. Sorry for leaving her behind. Sorry for leaving her alone here where she really only had one Alma to lean on when he was gone]

Are you all right?

[teaseofapriest]

[That's certainly one way to make an entrance.

The Noah crossed his arms over his chest, laughing at the other redhead as quietly as he could. He wasn't trying to laugh at him, honest but that was certainly the most original appearance he'd ever seen.]

Need some help there?

[besomeothername]

[If their positions were reversed, Lavi would be chuckling up a storm. Let it all out, Joyd. All of it]

If it doesn't interfere with your oh so very busy schedule, Boss.

[teaseofapriest]

[If their positions were switched, Cross wouldn't be stuck in a tree like a fool.]

Not at all.

[The man reached out to grab hold of one of Lavi's hands and phased him out of the tree waiting to let go once the younger was on the ground to have any ornaments, tinsel, garland or pine bits fall to the floor as well.]

[besomeothername]

[That is also very true]

[Well, now he's on the floor buried under a small yuletide of ornament dust and tinsel. He'll be trying to get that out of his hair for hours (if he even bothers. Might be fun to have glittery hair)]

You're a pal, yeah.

[Looks back up at the now sad and sorry tree]

Well, at least I found my way back before Christmas.

Please tell me the Yule Ball didn't start without me.

[selfdeluded]

[Holy shit-- Holy shit. Allen just-- stares for a moment, before all but dashing over to that tree and trying to rip the various strings of lights and garland down so Lavi will come down, too. And he's entirely okay with catching him if need be.]

[besomeothername]

[Oh, Lavi hopes that Allen is catching him. Catching him or flopping on top of him are the only too options really. And despite his vampire strength, Lavi still is a rolly polly doughnut eater]

[Reaches up to tug on a lock of hair playfully in either case]

Hey, Allen. How have you been?

[Terrible if those bags under his eyes are any indication. You, good sir, look like one very tired vampire]

[selfdeluded]

[Oh-- is Lavi far enough down that hair tugging is possible? Because if so then man, forget tugging on string lights and garland, Allen is just flopping on him and clinging to Lavi. Maybe even laughing a little.]

You came back...

[besomeothername]

[Wrapping an arm tightly around Allen's waist and pulling him close. Of course, he came back. He'd do anything to get back to the Dressing Room while people he cared about were still there]

Think a little thing like interdimensional portals will stop me from finding my way home?
