it's the most wonderful time of the year

[ Today's invitations are stupidly glittery. Like, there is an obscene amount of glitter? It is going to get everywhere and also on you and there is almost nothing you can do, so enjoy it. They are also obnoxiously colored, because Aligula has missed having the option of adding colors to all of her creations, and she has decided to rectify this.

Anyway, the message itself is blessedly simple, and written in her usual curly-cute script:


Christmas party in the ballroom at 5pm!!
Don't be late!!!
Lots of treats!!!!
also bring whatever you don't want from whatever you got out of that crappy vending machine because we're doing a
~SUPER SANTA SWAP MEET~
and a super special contest!!!

~ Aligula ♥


...The ballroom is likewise obnoxiously decorated, with cut-out Christmas trees and ornaments and chains of colorful streamers and... and look, we got an art studio. Aligula's determined to make up for lost time here. Her treats are all sorts of sweets, like cookies and cakes and a small parfait bar, but she actually does have some other things available: peanut butter and jelly finger sandwiches, an attempt at curry that's pretty bland, salad. The usual refreshments are there too—water, hot chocolate, milk with various syrups so you can make your own, some tea that's been steeped way too long sorry tea drinkers!!!

The swap meet is more or less relegated to the space by the piano; go dump your unwanted things and trade with other people, or just take it off their hands. Or, if you want to be more Santa-like, go gift someone something you don't want!!! Either to get it off your hands or because you think they'd actually like it, whatever. As for the contest...

There's a table marked "COORDY-J CONTEST" off to the side, with plenty of paper and supplies from the art storage—the rules are there too and also very simple: Draw what you think Jericho looks like, and the winner gets to throw the first doll into the fire. ]

[When Cabanela notices Alex in a red scarf, he looks delighted.]

Theeere's where my scarf went off to! I hope it's keeping you warm.

[He doesn't seem to be the least bit bothered by this turn of events.]

[ With a touch of shock, Alex looks from Cabanela to the scarf around her neck and back again. ]

Oh! O-oh, gosh, I'm sorry, it's yours? I didn't even think, do you want it back?

[He shakes his head.]

If you like it, it's yours. I knitted it myself; maybe a room'll show up so I can make a new one.
sleepytimegal: (you try to tell them everywhere i hide)

[personal profile] sleepytimegal 2017-10-17 04:40 am (UTC)(link)
But... But if you made it!

[ Is he sure? Is he really sure? ]

[He waves his hands dismissively.]

It's fine, really. There's bound to be yarn sooomewhere in this place.
sleepytimegal: (i see it now‚ what you left behind)

[personal profile] sleepytimegal 2017-10-23 07:41 am (UTC)(link)
Mmm... O...kay... But if you ever change your mind, I'm a-okay with giving it back!
perpend: (☂ if you're blue and you don't know)

[personal profile] perpend 2017-10-30 11:59 pm (UTC)(link)
Of course.

I suppose I could knit one for you, as a compromise. But it might take a while.
sleepytimegal: (i want to find something new)

[personal profile] sleepytimegal 2017-10-31 04:33 am (UTC)(link)
...You know, one that's actually me-sized might be nice.
perpend: (☂ where to go to)

[personal profile] perpend 2017-11-02 03:51 am (UTC)(link)
Ahhh, in that case, consider it done!

It'll take some time, more than likely, but I'll give it to you soon enough.
sleepytimegal: (▷ clean water‚ love‚ and health)

[personal profile] sleepytimegal 2017-11-02 04:16 am (UTC)(link)
And...when you do, I'll give you back this! That sounds like a good trade.
perpend: (☂ where to go to)

[personal profile] perpend 2017-11-03 09:45 pm (UTC)(link)
Of coourse!

It's a perfectly good trade.
sleepytimegal: (i want to find something new)

[personal profile] sleepytimegal 2017-11-03 11:46 pm (UTC)(link)
So! With that all settled... You enjoying the, uh, party?

[personal profile] perpend 2017-11-07 01:54 am (UTC)(link)
I am, I am!

I'll admit, it's a liiittle unusual to have a year's worth of holiday parties in one month, but... well. Aligula does throw some decent parties, doesn't she?
sleepytimegal: the first‚ the last‚ they'll never know (i never wanna be alone)

[personal profile] sleepytimegal 2017-11-07 08:06 am (UTC)(link)
Yuh-huh. She's not really the sort to go halfway, and...

...I think we kinda needed this.

[personal profile] perpend 2017-11-07 09:36 pm (UTC)(link)
She deserves credit for keeping the group together.
sleepytimegal: i don't want you to leave (i don't want you to go)

[personal profile] sleepytimegal 2017-11-10 07:37 am (UTC)(link)
[ ...this is gonna be funny, later- ]

Mmm... Yeah, you know? I'd say you're right. She keeps the mood up.
perpend: (☂ where to go to)

[personal profile] perpend 2017-11-11 03:19 am (UTC)(link)
[isn't it just]

That she does. I wonder what other parties she's going to think of? I think she's burned through all the major holidays!
sleepytimegal: (and i only said i wanted to be kind)

[personal profile] sleepytimegal 2017-11-12 02:39 pm (UTC)(link)
Who knows, maybe we'll get a rousing rendition of Arbor Day next. Thanksgiving? Fourth of July?

[ aligula's graceside holiday calendar, go ]

Hah! That's a good point.

Maybe she'll do Boxing Day.
