Chapter 7:
Writer: Yuumasu
Season: Winter
Location: Courtyard



Izumi: (... So I did what they asked and told everyone to come out into the courtyard.)
(But there's nothing and no one out here, and it's stupidly cold! This is a~bsolute worst!)

Tsukasa: Um, Sena-senpai? Why did you ask us to come out to the courtyard?

Izumi: Like I'd know! Honestly, I have the same question!

Tsukasa: Ah, I see... Well, it looks like you're enjoying the Party as well, Sena-senpai.
That red hat makes you look like an adorable child all excited for Christmas ♪

Izumi: I don't want you calling me a child, Kasa-kun. And this is just to show that I'm one of the organisers. With all the people here, it's hard to tell who's in charge, isn't it?
Oh, but if there is any problem, go to one of the other three. Don't bother me.
(Though two of us have gone MIA... Hm?)

Tsukasa: This sound is... A Helicopter? Ah.
Sena-senpai, look up at the sky!

Izumi: ... What?

[Scene change: Helicopter]

Wataru: "My apologies for addressing you all from up in the sky via a megaphone! A very merry Christmas to all of you enjoying the Christmas party... ☆"
"This Hibiki Wataru has brought you all an Amazing fir tree in Santa's stead!"
"And thus, I will have to ask that some of you move aside! Standing right under the tree is quite unsafe, after all!"
"Adonis-kun and Puppy-kun, please move fifty meters to the right— No, I mean to my right... Yes, perfect!"
"Thank you for your cooperation! Now then, we'll be lowering the tree ☆"

[Scene change: Courtyard]

Midori: Wow. This is my first time seeing a tree descend from the sky...

Tetora: I think that goes for everyone here, though? It's not something you see every day~

Shinobu: Indeed! This has been a warm, fun, and unforgettable Christmas party... ☆

Wataru: "... From a height like this, I should be able to jump. And poof ☆"
Fufufu. The positioning is perfect — right down the millimeter.
Now then, the finishing touch! Please turn your attention to this fir tree, everyone!
Here we go... One, Two, Amazing ☆


Aira: Woah... Look, look! The fir tree is glowing! How rabu~ly ♪

Hiiro: But the fir tree itself isn't glowing, it's merely being illuminated by the lights placed on it.

Aira: Geez, you're so particular, Hiro-kun. I don't need you telling me stuff I already know.
C'mon, let's get someone to help the four of us take a photo together ♪

Mayoi: Four... Eh, does that mean I'm going to be in it too...?

Aira: Well, duh? The four people I'm referring to is Alkaloid.

Tatsumi: Fufu, then let's take our photo before a crowd forms.

Madara: ... Looks like everything turned out alright. Good work, Wataru-san.

Wataru: Same to you. It must have been tough setting up all the lights yourself, no?

Madara: It sure was. There was the fear of being seen as a suspicious figure and causing a commotion lurking in the back of my mind...
But it looks like everyone was so focused on enjoying the Christmas party that they didn't notice me at all, hahaha!

Izumi: — No, this is nothing to "hahaha" about? You two are super late.

Madara: Izumi-san, Tatsumi-san.

Tatsumi: Thank you for the wonderful present. This is my first time seeing such a large fir tree.
And look, the children from my unit are in such high spirits thanks to it ♪

Izumi: It still kinda ticks me off that you two just kept us waiting for hours without saying a word, but, well. You made it back somehow, so I'll let that slide.
After all, Christmas without a tree is like Knights without me... ♪

Madara: I'm just glad everyone's happy. When I let my contact know we arrived without any problems, I also asked about the fir tree.
Apparently they went all out and prepared this to fulfill my request for "a splendid tree".
With the size of this thing, even if we had driven a normal car to pick it up, it would never have fit. I must say, I'm grateful for Wataru-san's foresight.

Wataru: I'm just glad everything went well. And behold, the sheer presence of this tree!
Even those who are unfortunately unable to join us for the party will be able to feel the Christmas spirit ☆

Tori: ... Hey, Hibiki-senpai.

Wataru: Hm? What is it?

Tori: Uh... Um, thanks for... For my sake...

Wataru: Himegimi?

Tori: ... No, it's nothing.
Let's go back into the dorms, it's cold out here. There's still tons of great food that Yuzuru and the others prepared waiting inside!

Tori: C'mon, hurry up ♪

Wataru: Fufufu. You're certainly energetic, Himegimi. There's no need to pull me along, I'm quite happy to follow regardless!
After all, I too wish to enjoy Christmas with everyone... ♪
