genessia | FORWARD DATED: Dec. 23rd: Christmas Party & Cheer: OPEN

[ooc: Feel free to make top posts! Levy's invited her friends but its more or less an open invitation. Come crash a party~ She'll also send another message and directions before the party]

[Levy goes above and beyond to make this party amazing. She has even hired someone to cater it which she is thankful for because her skills with cooking usually extend to reading directions and boiling water. She makes sure to have a mixture of drinks both alcoholic and not, very much the Fairy Tail idea of a party. Of course there are decorations all over the outside and inside of the house and a few sprigs of mistletoe that wait unsuspecting in doorways to ensnare guests. Of course kisses on the hand and cheek count just as much as kisses on the lips.

Knowing that the house might be to small Levy's set up a fire pit outside, allowing people to enjoy the warmth of the flame while surrounded by the cold air. The party is scheduled into the evening and eventually stars will dot the blanket of dark that covers the night sky. Levy has also planned fireworks which can't possibly go wrong!

Holiday music plays inside mostly from a CD that she bought and people are welcome to dance if they want to. Most of the songs are slower though there are a few quick ones in the mix. She set up a few games hoping that it was enough to keep everyone happy and entertained. She might be trying a little to hard for things to go well.

In the main room there is a large excellently decorated tree. Beneath it Levy has put her gifts to her friends. It's definitely worth checking out however everyone will discover they got books for Christmas. They all suit who they are address to but they are books with a card tapped to the brightly colored wrapping that expresses holiday greetings. A few of her close friends have special gifts though Levy has them stashed away for later.]

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

[That sounded easy enough. While Levy was away, Anastasia collected the plates first, in small bundles so she doesn't overwhelm herself and tries to decide which end would be better.

She picked a table corner and built two stacks of plates, each stack ending up no taller than she was. Next, the utensils. She simply left a small organized bin of them next to the plates. Anastasia quietly waited for Levy to return.

[Levy doesn't take very long for Levy to return in her bright red outfit. There is white trimmings around the hem and her stomach is exposed.]

I'm ready! Oh everything looks great!

[She has a few presents in her arms which she brings over to the large Christmas tree. She takes one and hands it over to Anastasia.]

For you!

[Anastasia didn't accept at first because it happened suddenly. When she got over it, the young girl slowly accepted the gift, examining it.]

"For me...? What do I do with it?"

[It seems she still didn't fully understand this holiday.]

It's a Christmas Present.

[She smiles brightly.]

It's for you.

[Anastasia was smiling as she held the gift.]

"Do I open it now? Or do I have to wait?"

You can open it now.

[Levy was watching her with an excited stare. Inside is an adventure book tilted Symphony of the Ages.]

[Anastasia carefully began to unwrap her gift, finding a book inside. She smiled at just the title alone.]

"Symphony of the Ages? This sounds like a good story. Thank you, Levy."

[She frowned slightly shortly after.]

"I'm sorry to say that I have nothing to give you."

[Levy waves a hand and shakes her head with a dismissive tone.]

I don't want anything.

[She continues to think about everything that needs to be done before pausing.]

Okay, I'm going to set up out front. Why don't you grab some punch and start relaxing? Not all the foods done but everything is more or less ready now.

[Anastasia now looks pretty surprised about something.]

"Punch?"

[Why would she want a punch? That would hurt. Not to mention very mean and not something a proper girl should do.]

It's a sweet drink. It's on the counter.

[She points before slipping outside to set up.]

[Anastasia looked to where Levy pointed. She walked over to the bowl and poured a little in a cup she picked out.

She took a sip, and liked it. She poured more and proceeded to drink.]
