"Tenko, they said sorry. Now stop chasing them."

There wasn't anything they could've done really. Himiko never mentioned her birthday to anyone, she even might even forgotten it herself. Though that might be the case, Tenko isn't taking that for an answer seeing that her chase on the boys isn't stopping anytime soon.

Himiko stayed to the sidelines of the very active hallway with Kirumi, eyelids dry from the winds passing by.

"I actually forgot, I even slept for the whole day."

Kirumi sighed, "You know how Chabashira-san can be sometimes. We can have a small party to calm her down."

"Yeah..., Kaito also owes me money so it's slightly just."

Kirumi stared at the carpet on the ground and folded  the short end, causing everyone to trip and fall. The series of 'ow's' and hissing were overshadowed by the yelling of Kirumi.

"Since someone is so mad by not celebrating Yumeno-san's birthday, we are celebrating it promptly. Shinguji, Kiibo, Amami help me downstairs. I have the cake already."

They three climbed their way out of the pile of semi corpses and proceeded towards the kitchen.

"The rest of you decorate the dorm for Christmas. Kirigiri purchased the classes decorations for us and we're going to put them to good use. They are in the supply closet near the bathroom."

With a spin on her heel and a terrifiying warning stomp, she walked to the kitchen. Cookies were already being baked, the table was almost set up and the cake was being cooled off. Kirumi chooses her helpers well, so it seems.

"Kork, what should the next cookie batch have on it?"

"How about something obscure? Like a cross symbolizing Jesus Chirst. Christmas is his birthday, you know?"

"I know but something most, y'know, more festive?"

He pondered for a second, "I'm afraid that my mind has drawn a blank."

"It's fine! Maybe some wizard hats or something magic related is okay."

Rantaro took out the black frosting and began lining a hat on the freshly baked cookies with Korekiyo while Kiibo just finished the setting the table whilst Kirumi placed the napkins on the plates. Kirumi didn't want it to be as big as this may seem but it looks like it would be exactly that.

"Is it me or is the kitchen already so hot?" Kiibo said while he wiped sweat off of his forehead.

"You can leave if you want. I don't want you to faint again." Kirumi inquired.

"No thanks, I feel that I didn't do enough anyways."

"Kiibo you always stress yourself out, you need to learn restraint for your own health. You can't help everyone, you know? Everyone dies eventually, no matter what." Korekiyo said while taking out the last batch of cookies from the oven.

"Isn't that a little too over the top?" Rantaro questioned.

"History involves countless deaths in the most unique and gruesome ways possible and I take the burden of knowing about it. I don't see why anyone else couldn't."

"Because you have the horror integrity of steel."

Korekiyo chuckled softly and started decorating the cookies with anything magic related, "You know me better than anyone, my love."

While the three were decorating the cookies, Kirumi decided to check up on her decorations team, which was surprisingly doing really well. The rest of the boys with the assistance of the girls decorated the majority of their side of the dorm already with great skill too. Kirumi smiled at the group's handy work.

"Impressive." She said.

"We wouldn't slack on something you demanded to get done. You're just that scary." Kaito responded  while he put up the wreathes.

"That is how I intend to be sometimes, I'm glad it's working. Still, I stand in awe at the group's fastness."

A collective 'thanks' sounded throughout their common area and rooms nearbye as Kirumi returned to the kitchen.

"What else... what else... maybe owls?" Rantaro lined the last cookie with green icing as he talked.

"I haven't thought of that, interesting." Korekiyo started decorating the last pan of cookies with a joyous glint in his eyes.

"Do we have permission to decorate Himiko's cake, Kirumi-san?" Kiibo suggested as he placed the cake in the center of the table. Kirumi shook her head.

"No offense to you of course but adding more frosting would make it look out of place considering that it was in the fridge in the back all of this time." Kiibo nodded and started to help with the cookies which were already almost done.

Kaede walked into the kitchen as Kirumi sat down on one of the available chairs, "We finished our decorations and even put up the tree." Already? Kirumi thought as she got up and washed a bowl for the cookies.

"They can come now. Also, remind me again if we're going to do Secret Santa?"

"No by default. We aren't in the best state financially but definitely next year." Kirumi nodded and Kaede dismissed herself right before the horde of hungry, tired children.

They all say down respectively except the helpers who were giving out the cookies. The sound of munching and lack of interaction annoyed Kirumi but she'll give them just a sliver of sympathy. Slices of birthday cake were given out over the start of light conversation.

"Happy Birthday Himiko. We didn't know, honestly." Shuichi said with a following of murmured agreements.

"I slept through the whole day so don't feel bad. Besides we should at least celebrate Christmas like we're supposed to instead about worrying about my feelings."

"I guess the degenerates get a pass this time." Tenko murmured. Himiko didn't bother milking an apology out of her this time.

"To move on from our group mistake, we will not be doing SS this year." Relieved sighs sounded throughout  the table.

"But what will Gonta's friends do this year?" Gonta's thought out loud.

"Let's do something... innovated. We trade something from our rooms to a selected person, I know it's budget cut but it's not Christmas without a little bit of giving." Tsumugi said as she started writing down their names on slips of paper and passing them out.

Miu to Ryoma
Korekiyo to Maki
Rantaro to Shuichi
Tenko to Kirumi
Tsumugi to Kokichi
Kaede to Angie
Gonta to Kiibo
Himiko to Kaito and vise versa

Some tried to be smart and gave the other pennies or socks like Maki and Ryoma but Kirumi said they actually have to give some effort.

Miu gave Ryoma one of her smaller inventions and Ryoma gave her a packet of gum.
Maki gave Korekiyo an assortment of poisons and Korekiyo have her a roll of duck tape.
Rantaro gave Shuichi a pamphlet of a hotel and Shuichi gave him a forensics kit.
Tenko gave Kirumi one of her training pants and Kirhim gave her one of her headbands.
Tsumugi gave Kokichi one of her dress plans and Kokichi gave her a case of grape soda.
Kaede gave Angie one of her music sheets for a church song and Angie gave her one of handmade bibles.
Gonta gave Kiibo a tank filled with his favorite bugs and Kiibo tried to give him a blueprint of his old upgrades but he declined because he thought it was rude to take something so personal.
Himiko gave Kaito alien sock and Kaito gave her the money he owed her.

Everyone was strangely satisfied with their gifts and planned to utilize them... eventually.

Merry Christmas a day late and a Happy Birthday to Himiko 23 days late. I'm sorry but BNHA is taking me but I've returned to my life blood which is this ship lmao.
