[OPEN] I’d feel like I’m not alone for the first time
WHO: Tatsuma Hiyuu and you!
WHERE: All over Recollé
WHEN: All month prior to Christmas Eve
WHAT: Catch all for the month! Spending time with friends and grandparents, doing charity chores, getting caught by mistletoe bats and - maybe even meeting someone new!
WARNINGS: None for now
[12/5 - Out and about]
[Tatsuma’s on a mission today.
With a ticket in hand, he approaches the tree, looking over the various packages until he locates his own. It doesn’t take long to tear it open, revealing...
A toy? He’s clearly pretty puzzled as he takes it out, examining it from all sides. The poor thing has definitely gone through something, that’s for sure; not only is it covered in dust and grime, but there’s evidence of dents that have been since buffed out, even if there’s still creases and warping in the material that couldn’t be fully repaired. ]
It really is...
[...Well, about what it had been described as. It definitely looks like something he’d get, that’s for sure. But he hasn’t seen it in any of his memories up until now, so...
Just where did this come from?]
[Mistletoe Bats]
[He’d spotted them as they flapped about - they’re hard to miss, honestly. But in his curiosity, he actually pauses to allow them to come close, peering up at then instead of taking the opportunity to flee.
It’s because of this that he ends up with a little mistletoe bat companion, flapping right over his head even as he continues to walk. It’s... not going to leave him alone, is it?
Currently, he’s debating making a fine use of his powers to sprint away. But maybe someone else can save him from this sad fate first?]
[Family and Friends]
[With the weather as cold as it is, anyone who comes by to visit Tatsuma may well find themselves invited inside by his grandmother. It’s so cold out these days, they’d best come inside and get warm - oh, and there’s apple cider and fresh pie, so help yourselves!
Tatsuma’s cheerful enough, his expression only dropping to one of annoyance when his grandmother parts with a teasing “Hii-chan,” because of course she can’t let her grandson have his friends over without poking fun at him.]
Ta-tsu-ma. Not Hii-chan. [Hmph!]
[That said... Starting on the 18th onward, any visitors may notice that his gaze lingers for a bit on his grandmother as she excuses herself from the room for the moment. There’s a slight, very slight frown before he turns back to the guest.
Whatever it is... Maybe it’s just his imagination.]
[Charity Chores]
>[A. Souji]
[It’s inevitable that the pair would sign up to work on chores together. The list itself seemed mostly harmless in Tatsuma’s opinion (if perhaps not in the eyes of whichever poor soul they settled on for a caroling victim). Although, of the list, the most suspect option was most definitely...]
Red and Green Chili Pepper Eating Challenge...?
[It’s been a sad discovery, finding that he could no longer taste his most favorite foods. However, little does he know, the lack of taste is not going to save him from the fate that awaits them.
There’s already a line ahead of them. They don’t have long before they’re called up, and Tatsuma watches the other competitors blithely. It couldn’t be that spicy... right?]
>[B. Jack]
[Tatsuma’s never met Jack before, but he’s sure that their charity work will go off without a hitch. Not so much because he expects it to be easy, but more because - it’s charity work. Everyone who’s signed up for such a thing must want to help, and all of the charity work assigned must be things that a general crowd could accomplish, right?
But then they get their assignments and he finds himself staring at that very first line, the echoes of his grandmother’s scolding in his head. Uh...]
Are you... good at baking?
[Please, please, please be better than him.]

Are you... good at baking?
[Please, please, please be better than him.]
no subject
[This does not bode well. But he does nod.]
I think I saw kits for it. Should we check there first?
[He could always ask his grandmother, but... He can't just rely on her baking expertise all the time!
(And yet, he is still probably going to end up relying on her baking expertise, in an attempt to leave their home in tact.)]
no subject
[ Which, if he has to ask if Jack bakes, he probably does not have. But that’s fine. ]
Maybe this no-taste thing isn’t so bad. No one ever said it had to be good. Gives us more room to mess up and still make a decent-looking gingerbread house for everyone, you know?
[ alright so let’s go get that mix! ]
no subject
[She's not the one who signed up for this. He'll turn to begin walking to Freshens!]
If it's just looking nice, that should be easy. It's just decorating, right?
[He's going to load it up with so many strawberry gummies, stop him.]
no subject
[ Which makes their lives way easier. As long as it’s not burnt to char, it should be fine! ]
So we’ve got to pick up some candy while we’re there, and frosting if the kits don’t have it. What kind of candy are you thinking? Gum drops are pretty obvious, but besides that.
no subject
Strawberry gummies.
[Are those even normally used for decorating? He has no idea, but he wants to, and he's one-track minded enough about strawberries to want it.]
no subject
Alright, that's one down. We've got to get different kinds, though, to make it look more interesting. Something brightly colored, like uh... M&Ms, maybe. What do you think?
no subject
[Hmmmm.]
You can make a mosaic out of M&Ms... but since it's for the holidays, maybe peppermint?
[Oh, there's some actual, useful advice.]
no subject
Peppermint! How could I forget peppermint?
[ smh that’s like the most obvious answer here ]
Alright, so we grab a couple candy canes, maybe those little swirly mints, your strawberry gummies, and the obvious gum drops. Sounds like plenty of decoration to me; what do you think?
no subject
Yeah, that works.
[And off to Freshens they go, on the hunt for ginger bread house kits! There's a simple option that's in high stock, but there's a few more complicated designs that require carefully gluing pieces together with royal icing.
A simple house is probably the better option... but a castle, John. They could totally make a castle, right??]
no subject
You think we can make this one work?
no subject
[Truthfully he's not sure but it's clear even from his quiet words that he wants to. What could possibly go wrong!!]
