Time to deck the halls with some Christmas one shots.
Diana looked at herself in the mirror, inspecting the Santa Claus costume she dressed herself in. A playful knock then emitted from the door, which the platinum blonde woman answered. Before her stood her wife, Akko, dressed as a reindeer. "Ready to-!" The brunette went silent when she saw her wife's outfit. The latter blushed.
"Akko, you're staring." The said woman shook her head and smacked her cheeks, snapping herself out of her daze. "Judging by your reaction, I look a little skimpy, don't I?" "No! I mean, you're hot, but the outfit doesn't make you look too much like that. It's just really pretty." Diana chuckled. "Thank you." Akko then presented herself. "What about me? How do I look?" "Like a cute reindeer."
Akko crossed her hands behind her back and gave her wife a bright smile. "Come on. Everyone's waiting for us", said Diana as she took her lover's hand.
"Diana, wait!" "Hm?" "Aren't you forgetting something?" The platinum blonde smacked her forehead. "Of course." She dashed back into the room and grabbed a big bag full of presents.
When she walked out, she saw Akko crouching down on the floor. "What are you doing?" "Santa is supposed to ride the reindeer on Christmas. He can't be walking down the stairs so casually", explained Akko. "Okay, first of all, Santa is female at the moment, and secondly, I'm not climbing on your back." "Yes you are", said Akko. "No Akko. I am definitely not."
Akko squinted at her wife, then dashed behind her. Once there, she dove in between Diana's legs and lifted her up. "Akko!", exclaimed the platinum blonde woman. "Relax. Just think of this as me carrying you like I did at our wedding." "Except you carried me in your arms, not your back!"
"Can't change my mind, Honey. If you could, I would've listened to everybody and quit Luna Nova a long time ago." Diana sighed. Akko had a point. "Fine. Let's get this over with." Akko smiled widely and pointed out ahead of her. "Onward!"
. . .
Everyone was in the main hall, all of them friends and family of Akko and Diana. "When are Mommy and Mama coming?", asked Hana, the daughter of the aforementioned couple. "They'll be here sweetie", said Mrs Kagari, Akko's mother. "We just need to be a little patient", said Mr Kagari, Akko's father.
Hana nodded. "Okay. I'll be patient. Because if I'm not, Santa won't bring me any presents." The girl's grandparents chuckled.
"Ho ho ho!", boomed a voice. Everyone looked up to see Akko and Diana come down the stairs. They all couldn't help but stifle a laugh at the sight of the brunette woman carrying her wife on her back, while the latter hid her face in embarrassment. Lucky for her, she was set down and presented by her lover to the crowd.
"Look kids! We have presents!" All the children that came with their parents cheered, with Hana being among them. Akko and Diana walked down the stairs together. "How can you do this without feeling embarrassed?", Diana asked softly. "Because I do magic shows dressed in a flashy outfit as a career", responded her wife. Diana thought on this, then shrugged. Akko had a pretty good point. "Come on, Diana. Look at them." The said woman did so, seeing the smiles on all of the children's faces. A warm sensation grew in her heart.
It grew even more when she saw her daughter among the crowd of children, having the brightest smile imaginable. With that, Diana's embarrassment vanished. "Who wants presents?" All the children cheered in response. Diana and Akko proceeded to take out gifts from the big sack and hand them out and watch as the kids that received them opened them up with enthusiasm. After they walked a bit more, the two women reached their daughter. "You look so pretty, Mama", Hana said to Diana. "She really does", Akko said.
She reached into the sack, pulling out the gift she and her wife had gotten for their daughter. The little girl wasted no time in opening it. Upon seeing what she was given, her eyes sparkled. In her hands was a lavender stuffed rabbit toy. Hana looked up at her moms and hugged them both. "Thank you Mama! Thank you Mommy!" The two women returned their child's hug. While doing so, Akko's parents approached them. "Look! I got a bunny!" "We can see that", said Mrs Kagari. "And it is really adorable."
"I'm sorry, but I've gotta ask", came a voice. It was none other than Amanda. "Did you really have to dress up?" "It's for the kids", explained Akko. "Yes. So be nice", said Hannah, Amanda's wife. "Mom!", called a little boy, running towards Amanda and Hannah. "Look what I got!" The boy showed his mothers a toy monster truck. "That's great, Liam", said Hannah. "Now what do we say?"
Liam turned to Akko and Diana. "Thank you!" "You are most welcome", said Diana. Akko responded with a smile. Liam and Hana then ran off to go play. "Hey wait up!", called out another little girl. She the turned to Akko and Diana, thanking them for the doll she was currently holding. "Don't run too fast, Edith", Lotte called out to her daughter. "She's fine, Darling", said Barbara.
Akko chuckled. Diana looked at their daughter playing with the others, then looked back at her wife. "I guess the outfit isn't too embarrassing. Not if I got to make these children happy." "That's our jobs, Diana", said Akko. "I do magic shows, and you bring magic and modern technology together to make people happy. A good example being our kids, which are possible thanks to your research."
Diana smiled and looked at her wife. "Merry Christmas, Akko." "Merry Christmas, Diana", said Akko, giving her lover a kiss. "Careful. You don't want Mrs Claus catching you making out with a reindeer", joked Amanda. "Or are you Mrs Claus and you don't want Santa catching you?" Diana rolled her eyes at Amanda's comments, while Akko just laughed.
