Christmas celebrations! Yaaay!

[descendsfromshadow]

[Well, where else would everybody from Remnant come to celebrate the holidays but the Yangcave but Team RWBY's apartment? Talk about some sudden last minute preparations, yeesh!]

[But the tree's set up, the presents are out and everything's ready for the mob to descend.]


[OOC: A member of the RWBY cast? Get in here! An honorary member of the RWBY cast? AKA somebody with CR with one of these crazy kids who got invited? Get in here too! Everybody's welcome!]

[imitationsloth]

[Have Nora show up with a bag of (hastily purchased/made) gifts and some cookies on a plate.]

Hi Girls!

[onecream_fivesugar]

[Cookies? What cookies? Ruby may have already started eating those. Regardless of whether Nora's still holding the plate or not.

She's in much better spirits than she was when Nora first arrived.]

Mmmm.. Ooooh. These are good.

[short_n_sweet]

[Jaune naturally arrives with Nora, and when Ruby zips on up to start munching down those cookies, she actually startles him.] Bwah! Oh, jeez, can't you wait for even a second?

[He sighs and turns his attention towards the residents of the Yangcave the apartment with a wave.] 'Sup?

[lazygurl]

Goodbye, couch. And hello, bed! It could've only been more perfect if it came with a Chillow. There's always next year, Karina supposed. Her opinion of Juane was brightening pretty considerably.

And like so many Christmases, the enjoyment of gifts had to be put off for holiday socializing. She liked that too, but the bed was calling to her. Well, she'll show off her slippers. They were pretty tame, and probably not proper party attire, but so comfy that she couldn't resist.

"Sup..."

[onecream_fivesugar]

[Ruby got a mouth full of cookie when she glances back at Jaune in confusion.]

Mwuah?

[Care to repeat that Jaune? She was too busy eating cookies to answer.]

[solar_flare]

[Yang's made the place a little more inviting, with a holiday rock CD playing and some not-baked-just-purchased snacks laid out on the table. She's wearing all the things people gave her: glasses, gloves, scarf, and in high spirits.]

We should break out some party games!

[Like spin the bottle, or seven minutes in heaven. But Ruby's too young to appreciate it, and Jaune is too there. Sorry, man!]

How about Chubby Bunnies?

[She grins, holding up a bag of puffed marshmallows.]

[Open]

[monkeystowaway]

[He's supposed to give gifts to people, right? Well..he didn't have any idea what to give people. So he just shows up there with some fruit baskets for people if they are stolen or not, he's not telling.

He drops them off near the tree, and there are names written on them. They felt a little impersonal, but what else could he do at the last minute. He swipes a banana from one of the baskets after dropping them off, though, and proceeds to peel it.]

Re: [Open]

[smelltheredinside]

[Have someone floating behind you, Sun, seemingly from nowhere. A sly little grin is on her face.]

Are you supposed to eat your gifts for others? That seems pretty bad.

[monkeystowaway]

Whoa! [He spins around to face the..strange..floaty girl. Where did she even come from?]

..What they don't know won't hurt them.

[smelltheredinside]

[She chuckles, as she pulls him to her side with a mischievous grin.] What's stopping me from telling them~?

[monkeystowaway]

The kindness in your heart, perhaps?

[Open]

[onecream_fivesugar]

[A fruit basket? Maybe she will indulge a little bit. She'll grab an apple and take a bite before looking over to Sun.]

Ffffank yeoouuuww Funnn.

[...And she's talking with her mouth full. Isn't she charming?]

[Open]

[monkeystowaway]

[Classy, Ruby. It manages to get a little laugh out of Sun, though.]

You're welcome. I had no clue what to really get any of you girls, though.

[Open]

[solar_flare]

[Well hey, that was pretty thoughtful. Yang doesn't even care if he eats a banana, whether or not it comes from her basket.]

That was sweet of you, Sun. Thanks! Looks good, too.

[Open]

[monkeystowaway]

It was the least I could do. And it wouldn't have really felt right coming to this gathering without bringing some sort of gift for the hostesses. [ Though he probably should have filled Blake's with tuna instead of fruit. He noms on some of his banana.]

[Open]

[solar_flare]

[Once he gets to know Blake better, he'll have plenty of time to learn the little things like that.]

How are you doing? Did you find a place to settle in yet?

[Open]

[monkeystowaway]

Yeah. For the time being, I'm staying over at the The Matisse.

[Finally stops failing and gets in here]

[descendsfromshadow]

[Blake can't help but smile a little bit at the fruit baskets, even while she rolls her eyes a bit when he snatches a banana from one. Well, it was him.]

I hope that wasn't from mine.

[Finally~]

[monkeystowaway]

[His fruit thieving ways aren't much of a secret to her, he assumes.]

Going to take it back if it is?

[Yeah, yeah.]

[descendsfromshadow]

[Well, yes. At this point, she'd start to get suspicious if she didn't see Sun running around with an armload of pilfered produce.]

I might.

[She hesitates for a heartbeat before walking up to him and holding out the wrapped box she'd been carrying behind her back.]

Um, here. I wasn't sure what to get you, but I thought I should pick something. Even if only as a thank you.

[combatskirts]

Well, that's.... thoughtful.

[she's wearing her new jewelry and hair trinkets and is eyeing sun very carefully. but, food is always welcome, and apples are her favorite so she takes one and bites into it gently. remember your manners, weiss.]

Thank you.

[monkeystowaway]

[And here he wasn't sure what any of them would think of fruit as a gift.]

No problem. Fruit was a better gift than showing up empty handed.

So do you always get so dressy when you go to a gathering with your friends? [He means the hair trinkets and jewelry.]

[smelltheredinside]

[Invited or not, there's a party and she's totally there. She's got the glitzy black top on with a large hat and long black gloves that she's using to shield herself from the daylight while she's moving about, Harry's sunglasses perched on her nose (They go with the hat!), and jeans with a white belt - she got peckish on the way, so sue her. It looks good either way.]

yo guys, what's happening?

[open]

[combatskirts]

[weiss put all her gifts under the tree in a nice neat pile. they're all wrapped in cute silver snowflake paper... she may have rushed out to the store last night to get stuff and spend her arrival money on you guys. she's standing around in the apartment eating an apple that sun brought.]
