5th Floor Common Room -- Sunday Evening

[intraspective]

She'd managed to forget that there was a party going on until late enough that she'd have felt sort of weird showing up—not to mention 'bout the fact that Ino was a bit weirded out by the idea of showing up at some strange grown-up's place for a party—and so, with her Santa hat perched jauntily on her head, she'd wandered into her common room to make hot chocolate.

It was totally seasonal. And so was the candy cane she was nibbling on. The candy was obviously the best part of this holiday, especially for someone who only had the vaguely concept of what the holiday entailed beyond 'shiny presents'.

But presents? Were pretty awesome too. She leaned against the counter and sipped her hot chocolate idly.

[Because I had to use this icon today, yes! Toootally open common room!]

Leda's santa hat was black. She liked it.

"Happy Humbug!" she gleed, coming into the common room.

[intraspective]

"Humbug?" Ino asked, tilting her head.

[anarchist-queen.livejournal.com]

Leda shrugged. "It's fun to say. Nice hat Amy."

[intraspective]

"It's the best hat ever," Ino said, grinning. "I like yours though, makes a different sort of statement."

[anarchist-queen.livejournal.com]

Leda hadn't actually thought of making a statement, but now that Ino mentioned it, it even fit Leda's secret mood.

"That just because we're being festive we don't have to bow to color stereotypes?"

[intraspective]

"I am, I think? Red's a stereotype, yeah?" Ino shrugged as if it didn't matter. "But it's still totally cute."

[anarchist-queen.livejournal.com]

"And that's what really matters with these hats. Unless your the big S, everyone else is just trying to look cute."

[intraspective]

"I think I'm succeeding," she noted.

[anarchist-queen.livejournal.com]

"I agree. How about me? Am I cute?" She posed.

[intraspective]

"Totally cute," Ino assured her. "The hat is just darling on you, I promise."

[anarchist-queen.livejournal.com]

"Thanks." she giggled. "So, what do you want for Christmas?"

[intraspective]

"Mmm," Ino beamed. "Something totally cute?"

[anarchist-queen.livejournal.com]

"Are you talking clothes or puppies?"

"I think I'm missing out on the free hats," Jennifer said. "I guess the powers that be think I'm festive enough already."

[anarchist-queen.livejournal.com]

"We could try to find you one. Maybe...purple?"

[not-jaded-yet.livejournal.com]

"Purple, oooh," Jennifer said. "Definitely my color. But not too festive."

[anarchist-queen.livejournal.com]

"Purple's not festive?"

[not-jaded-yet.livejournal.com]

"I'm pretty sure Christmas is red and green themed," Jennifer said.

[anarchist-queen.livejournal.com]

"Okay then maybe the traditional color would work best."

[not-jaded-yet.livejournal.com]

"I've already got the green down pretty good," Jennifer said.

[anarchist-queen.livejournal.com]

"So we just get you a red outfit and you're the most festive person in Fandom."

[not-jaded-yet.livejournal.com]

"Exactly," Jennifer said. "Any way, ready for some battles in space?"

[anarchist-queen.livejournal.com]

"Absolutely. Though I will have to get used to the lack of alien zombies."

[not-jaded-yet.livejournal.com]

"Believe me, you won't miss them," Jennifer said. "Wait til the guy with the vest shows up. He's hot."

[anarchist-queen.livejournal.com]

"Oooh." Leda smiled in anticipation. Leda was now looking forward to it even more.
