Erina!

[Do either of them have any frame of reference for Christmas or winter holidays in general. Do such things exist where they are currently.]

[Whatever, it's cold and snowy outside, and wherever they are there's at least one person who's been spreading the good word of Christmas or Candlenights or Winter's Crest or the fantasy/sci-fi festival of your choice.]

I've brought you a gift. It's traditional!

[This is almost certainly not any kind of secret, even if Penny thinks it is. But at least the wrapping job on the box she's presenting is nice.]

[zweihandler]

[ What Erina thinks in her head: something like "aww, damn, Penny got me a gift, she bought me a thing when she didn't have to, that's thoughtful and cute. Penny's cute."

What Erina actually says out loud, with her hell mouth: ]

Oh shit, free stuff. [ God motherfucking damn it, Erina. She takes the present and gives it an eyeball. ] ... thanks. You, uh, didn't have to get me anything, so it's cool you did. Am I good to open it?

[in4apounding]

I wanted to! And it seemed like an important part of the holiday ritual.

[She needs to Do This Right, is she doing it?]

And of course! I want to see what you think of it.

['It' is kind of a big package, actually. And once Erina is through the immaculately crisp wrapping, it will be revealed as a slightly ridiculously-tactical glitter cannon, complete with laser sight and several refills.]

[zweihandler]

[ Permission thus given, Erina absolutely shreds this thing open and for lack of anywhere else to put the paper she sort of... crams it into her pocket to find a trash can later. At least she's not littering...

Once she's shelled the present, she turns it over in her hands, taking a few moments to work out what it is, but then her whole face lights up. ]

Oh, shit! [ Again, sounding genuinely delighted: ] Oh, shit! Penny, is this a fucking glitter cannon?!

[in4apounding]

Yes! With-

[And here she lists off an obscenely-long list of technical specs that probably should never be associated with something that's not actual military combat gear.]

-and the glitter packs come in gold, silver, and rainbow. ...Do you like it?

[It seems like it, but. She wants to be sure.]

[zweihandler]

Hell yeah I do! Penny, this fucking rocks.

[ She's got a big, boisterous grin on her face that doesn't look out of place necessarily, but it's definitely uncharacteristic of Erina – it's a little too sincere and unguarded, but she's so pleased and caught off guard that she can't help herself. ]

We've gotta test this thing out like, now. Who do you feel most deserves getting glitter bombed right now?

[in4apounding]

Sensational!

[She picked a good gift, she feels accomplished.]

Oh, hm.

[She thinks about that question for a second.]

...Do you want someone who'll think it's funny or someone who genuinely deserves to be attacked?

[zweihandler]

Hhhhhuh.

[ Erina thinks on it for a second. ]

How about someone who genuinely deserves to get attacked? I mean, we don't know how strong this thing is, so I feel like the responsible thing to do would be to test it on someone who absolutely deserves to get a cannon fired at them.

[in4apounding]

Hm.

[Well, the logic is sound.]

...Mister Cipher.

[Does she even need to elaborate on this point, or-]

[zweihandler]

[ Erina claps a decisive hand on Penny's shoulder. ]

Let's knock his fucking block off.

[in4apounding]

I don't think the cannon should be that powerful, but we'll see!

[She does not particularly seem to object to the possibility, mind.]

[The nacho asshole himself in all his Danny Devito-esque glory isn't hard to find. He's in the kitchens, back turned, adding what looks like a truly obscene amount of absinthe to a bowl of punch for the upcoming or ongoing party we totally established was a thing, no need to backread.]

Do you wanna just take the shot or should I go in and act as a distraction?

[zweihandler]

[ Look at him preparing to ruin Christmas even more than he already is just with his presence alone. Really, when you think about it, this is just karma. ]

Distract him. That means you get to see the look on his face up close when I blast him with this monster.
