Christmas tiiiime

Who: Bioshock Family House! (and friends)
What: ITS CHRISTMAS! And they're going to be civil to each other dagnabbit
When: Christmas?
Where: The Bioshocker House!
Summary: Everyone is happy! Food! Presents! Puppies? Proposals! WAIT WAHT?!
Rating: P for words starting with P.

Tree? Check. It's pathetic and almost half the pine-needles are missing from getting dragged into the house.

Ornaments? Check.

Christmas dinner? Well...there's food, at least! Robert and Booker might have raided the supermarket for all the microwaveable and appropriate foods to have for Christmas. There's microwaved chicken, microwaved mashed potatoes, microwaved green beans that are really soggy and smell funny, microwaved rolls, and microwaved ham. Because there should be variety, damnit. There's also a pie sitting in the microwave, waiting. And vanilla ice cream.

Booker wouldn't call it a feast or anything but it's not like there's absolutely nothing to be seen.

They haven't gone all out or anything for the first Christmas they're spending together, nobody here really has the Christmas spirit to do it. Either the Luteces don't remember how to do Christmas or they just don't care - the latter is more likely and Booker hasn't done Christmas in decades so it feels off to even find a tree. Booker doesn't know if Elizabeth ever got to celebrate the holiday in her tower but as far as he's concerned this should be good enough.

"Bigger, and a lot meaner-looking. They look like the kind of dog you'd want for an attack or guard dog. Nemo just looks like someone bred a mop to a cotton ball and kept the results." Okay, so that wasn't the most flattering description of his fiancee's new pet, but it was fairly accurate as far as he was concerned.

"Hey, I like my cotton mop ball," Elizabeth laughed, poking Gai in the jaw teasingly. Perhaps she was only vehemently defending her little mutt because he reminded her of Booker. Mottled and rough-looking, but with a good heart.

Gai just responded by turning his head enough to playfully nip at her finger, then shower it with kisses. It wasn't that he hated the puppy, per se. It seemed more like a small, fluffy nuisance than anything else, and he did have to admit (albeit grudgingly) that it was kind of cute in a ridiculous way. As long as it didn't bite him, he supposed he could probably coexist with it.

Elizabeth laughed and held her finger still for Gai. Yes, she walked right into that. "See? You already have something in common--you both like to put my fingers in your mouths."
voidseeing: (Headstrong)

Gai couldn't help but laugh at that. She'd gotten him there, he would readily admit that much. "Hopefully not for the same reasons."

"Oh I don't know about that. Why do you do it?"
voidseeing: (Are the best I've ever had)

"I'll give you a hint: it isn't something that most people consider appropriate to discuss in public."

His tone, however, made quite clear exactly what he was hinting at.

Elizabeth made one of her pretending-to-be-scandalized noises that were so frequently made when Gai was around. "And here I thought it was because you loved me--meaning I could make the same case for Nemo. But that is definitely not the same case at all."
voidseeing: (Come with me)

"I would hope I love you more than that puppy does," Gai bantered. Then again, he didn't know all that much about puppies in general-- he suspected they probably bestowed utter and unwavering devotion on whoever it was that fed them.

"We should hold a contest. See who loves me more. Then I'll marry the winner." She giggled and stretched up to kiss Gai on the jaw again--mostly because the word 'marry' had her going into fluttery little giggles when she so much as thought it.
voidseeing: (Okay sometimes you aren't stupid)

[personal profile] voidseeing 2014-01-19 06:15 am (UTC)(link)
Grinning, Gai turned his head enough to meet her lips with his own and give her a warm, loving kiss. If she wanted to make this a contest, that was just fine with him. He didn't have any doubts as to his ability to win it, not with that ring currently adorning her finger (and the thought of that gave him a silly, uncharacteristic little flutter in his stomach).
