Those ‘tacky’ trees you and the Shady Lady are dismissing? Those are the ones with character.” “And that’s the kind of tree we want,” Hapi finished for him. “C’mon, Freckles. What good is a Christmas tree if it’s not violently colorful enough to blind us?” Ashe made sure to take a deep breath before speaking. “This is the first time I’ve been able to even afford a Christmas tree in years. I want it to be special.” “And it will be,” Yuri promised him. “With my and Hapi’s Christmas miracle guaranteed decorating expertise.” “I think not,” Constance interrupted tersely. “We are cultivated people,” and this time she ignored Yuri’s belly laugh, “and our tree will represent that sophistication.” “Y’all are looking at this all wrong,” Balthus said around a sip of beer from his spot on the couch. “Balthus, you’re supposed to be cleaning your room,” Ashe sighed. “Never gonna happen, twink. Listen, the solution is easy.” Balthus took another sip of beer. “Decorate half the tree fancy and the other half tacky. You know, like that Fresh Prince of Bel Air episode.” “There’s no way that could work,” Ashe retorted. “There’s just… well, actually as long as I take pictures from an angle it should be fine.” Hapi shrugged. “I’m down with that.” “I most certainly am not ‘down with that,’ but if it pleases my Hapi, then I shall acquiesce,” Constance said, a simple black ornament in hand. “I don’t know,” Yuri grumbled. “This sounds weird, even for us.” Ashe placed a hand on Yuri’s arm, his eyes warm. “But we’ll make it work. We always do.” “Damn.” Yuri kissed Ashe’s cheek. “For someone who claims that he has a lot to learn, you always seem to know what to say.” “Oh, a compliment. Are you actually going to agree with me this time?” Yuri leered at Ashe. “Why not? It’s Christmas.” “Um, you two may want to get a room if you’re going to keep this up,” Balthus remarked. “We will later,” Yuri assured him. “But for now, we’re going to focus on the tree now that we’re done arguing.” “Yeah, about that, Yuri-bird.” Hapi held the tree topper in her hand. “Now we gotta decide who puts the star on the tree.”(Fire Emblem: Three Hopes Fic)

“I can’t believe I’m saying this, but I agree with Constance,” Ashe said.

Yuri ignored Constance cackling with triumphant glee. “Those ‘tasteful’ trees are a dime a dozen, friend. Those ‘tacky’ trees you and the Shady Lady are dismissing? Those are the ones with character.”

“And that’s the kind of tree we want,” Hapi finished for him. “C’mon, Freckles. What good is a Christmas tree if it’s not violently colorful enough to blind us?”
