>>19328902>>19335095The rear entrance to the WWA Dojo kitchen opens and in steps both the familiar Ash and the dubiously familiar blonde close behind, gift bags and boxes on hand. The bespectacled blonde pauses at the sight of Lillith.
>"Whoa, uh-">Don't stare.>"Hi.">"(Are those horns real?!)">(Don't just ask stuff like that. That's rude.)>"Are those horns real?"Ash rolls her eyes as she places her gifts down to one side. She looks up Paule's way and gives a nod.
>Merry Christmas, kiddo.>Your gift is somewhere in here, but we're saving it for last.She grabs a gift bag and a flat, wrapped box and holds them out towards the hulking dojo chef, the bag placed on top of the gift box.
>Pay her no mind, she's not in the biz.The bag's contents include a new kit of sturdy cooking utensils. The box, when opened, reveals a new apron adorned with
[MAKE WAR]
[WITH]
[THE COOK]
She then turns her attention to Huldra, deep sigh.
>Hi. Okay. They didn't tell me there was a new trainee- I'm Ash Romero, nice to meet you.>(Fuck, uh.)She scrambles through the gift bags and pulls out an ol reliable - an envelope with some Spaghetti Town Dollars in it. It was meant to go to the staff, but she'll cross that bridge when she gets there.
>Happy Holidays, newbie.
