The trailer looks much the same as ever: small, clean, ruthlessly tidy.
Well, except for the tinsel on the cabinets. (Cathy's doing. It's shedding a bit on the counter.) And the holly and colorful squiggles drawn on the whiteboard on the back of the kitchen door. (Also Cathy's doing.) And the tiny tree taking up half the kitchen table, wedged into a corner and slightly precariously laden with ornaments. (Trowa helped with that one. But because Cathy handed him the box of ornaments and told him to.) There are small presents shoved under the drooping branches.
Trowa is making coffee, at the moment.

Date: 2009-01-02 08:27 am (UTC)"Do you celebrate Christmas?" Cass personally, or her world in general: either one.
Trowa is perhaps more familiar than Cathy with missing the point of holidays, anyway.

Date: 2009-01-07 05:50 am (UTC)Holidays, for Trowa, are mostly things that have meaning to other people. He sits back and observes this habit. This used to be even more true than it is now.
It's also one reason why Catherine gets to bustle about and steer everyone towards the tree and PRESENTS!!!, and Trowa will play laconic cultural interpreter if needed.
(He's letting himself be steered, though.)

Cass goes first, because she is the guest! She has two packets of temporary tattoos (one of dinosaurs, and one of butterflies), and a few glittery hairbands. She also has a gift certificate for Milliways labelled ONE FREE MILKSHAKE (Cathy made it HERSELF! Er, after negotiating with the Bar).
They are all wrapped up in a small blue tissue paper bundle, tied with a bright green ribbon.

They make her beam.
