[fullgauntlet]

[He looks at Katsuki and then blinks and steps up to the tree and starts poking and pulling gently at the branches. It really is a majestic-looking tree. Full and green and amazing! But it is taller than what might be acceptable.]

This one is really nice, Kacchan.

[He looks over his shoulder at him.]

[apshot]

[ As in check and see if the branches can hold the weight of ornaments!

He sighs, putting both hands in his pockets now. Jerks his head in the direction of where the office must be. ]

So go get an axe. I'll save the damn tree.

[ Yes he knows it's bigger than the standard he set. Don't say shit Deku. ]

[fullgauntlet]

[That's what he did!!

Izuku blinks.]

Ah- Are you sure, Kacchan??

[This isn't what they agreed on?! Even if Izuku would like this one...!]

[apshot]

Are you really asking because you want me to rethink this or what?

[ Don't question. If he says it's good then it's good! ]

[fullgauntlet]

[Katsuki is going to get the biggest smile ever as he takes off.]

Thank you, Kacchan!! Then I'll be right back with the axe!

[Happy Izuku is Happy.]

[apshot]

[ And fuck. He hates that smile. He's obsessed with that shitty smile. Makes something flop around in his gut and his chest tight.

Shit. Turning into a push over. That's the only explanation.

But he's going to wait right here and growl at anyone that comes close to this tree.]

[fullgauntlet]

[Someone has it bad.

Good job protecting his perfect tree, guard-kacchan. Izuku won't take long before returning with a wave and the axe in hand and a few ropes and what appears to be a wooden dolly type sled. Looks like this place has everything to get this tree back home.]

Kacchan! I've got everything, are you ready?

[Time to take down a tree!]

[apshot]

[ Izuku has absolutely no room to talk.

He does, however, apparently have a sled and an axe. For a moment Katsuki had wondered if the nerd would have that kind of foresight. If not, he could always make one out of ice, he supposes. ]

Yeah, I'm ready. Ready to get the hell out of this cold.

[ Okay please come on and start chopping. ]

[fullgauntlet]

[Of course he had the foresight. He also would have just made one out of alchemy if needed.]

I'll make it quick, Kacchan.

[He smiles and moves to get to work chopping!]

[apshot]

[ Part of him wants to ask Izuku if he even knows WOW to chop a tree. But then that feels like a pretty dumb question so he just brings the sled up close so that it should fall. ]

Do it. Imma want something warm when we get back.

[fullgauntlet]

[Well how hard can it be to cut down a Christmas tree? Cut it at the base. It's not so huge that he has to hack at it for hours.]

Hm, some tea?

[Chop! Chop! Chop! Working hard!!]

Kacchan, help me catch it properly when it falls.

[apshot]

Or hot chocolate with marshmallows for you since you're such a dweeb.

[ And Izuku would probably be into it, right? Katsuki scoffs, rolling his eyes. ]

I got it.

[ Which means he's really using a wind spell to help lower it instead. ]

[fullgauntlet]

There's nothing wrong with hot chocolate and marshmallows. We could both have some. Maybe you could have some mint in yours.

[Come on. Time to indulge a little bit, Kacchan.

Meanwhile! Down the tree comes! Gently onto the cart thanks to Katsuki's magic. Izuku goes to tie it down. He looks so hyped about this.]

There! I'll secure it!

[apshot]

Why would I want to put mint in my hot chocolate?

[ Cinnamon maybe. Chili powder, sure. But mint? That seems to be a little bit of a stretch.

Katsuki catches the tree and lowers it. He then uses light to make something of a strap for the tree. It's not going to go anywhere. ]

I got it handled. Let's go.

[fullgauntlet]

I figured you might want something a little more festive today?

[Cinnamon is just as festive, sure. But so is mint? At least he thinks so.

Once everything is set to go the two of them can start making their way back towards the grounds and home.]

[apshot]

Because we are setting up a tree?

[ And it's going to be something of a trip. However, Bakugou swings by the office and pays for the tree.

Then he pauses. Frowns. ]

Maybe we shoulda got a big one for the center of the refugee camp?

[fullgauntlet]

Hm, that's right. Ahh... Maybe we can come back tomorrow for a second one?

[He's actually a little surprised Katsuki's into an idea like that.]

I think that would be nice. Are you ... feeling more festive because of that, Kacchan?

[apshot]

Maybe.

[ Look it's just something that had occurred to him okay? Although - ]

Wait. Do the assholes here even celebrate that sort of thing? Or would they just stare and wonder what the fuck it is that we're doing.

[fullgauntlet]

I can't believe I got Kacchan into the festive spirit.

[He's puffing up just a little bit. But then he ponders...]

I don't think they do, actually... But that doesn't mean we can't share a few new customs and traditions with them, ne? It might be fun.

[apshot]

Who said that it has anything to do with you, hah?

[ But it does. It very, very much does. Katsuki just continues to pull the thing along. This... Might actually take a while. Maybe they should get a horse and latch it up? ]

I ain't gonna make fried chicken for the entire camp. Just throwing that one out the window now.

[fullgauntlet]

[Izuku isn't thinking it's too much that they might need a horse? It is a bit of a trek but they're in good shape so far.]

But you did think about it, Kacchan.

[He looks at the blond with a fond expression. As much as Katsuki tries to brush it all off he does have a feeling that he thought about it for Izuku's sake too.]

We could maybe at least get some Christmas cakes?

[Just then it starts to snow softly. The light fluttery flakes drifting down slow.]

[apshot]

[ He scoffs. Yeah, maybe. Maybe it is Deku's fault. But only because the shitty nerd just looks too happy. Too full of that Christmas joy. So other people can be happy too, right? ]

Maybe.

[ Katsuki clicks his tongue. ]

Maybe we can arrange a dinner feast. Shouldn't be too hard. They don't gotta know what it's for, right?

[fullgauntlet]

Hm. Yeah, I think we could do something like that just to give back. We don't need to make it complicated.

[Katsuki is... the best. He's amazing. He's really kind in his own ways and Izuku will never not think that.

A snowflake falls and Izuku reaches up to brush it from Katsuki's cheek.]

I'll help too, we'll make it a good feast.
