Squidmas

Merry Squidmas! What do you and he do on your first Squidmas together?

Goggles:
• You both attend a party Aloha's hosting
• He convinces you to wrap him in Squidmas lights
• At one point Aloha flits over, holding a mistletoe and chooses you and Goggles to be his victim
• Goggles doesn't hesitate to bring you down to his eye-level and kiss you sweetly on the cheek 

Rider:
• He always goes to his mom's house for Squidmas, so naturally, his mom wanted him to bring you along 
• His mom tells you so many embarrassing stories of Rider, much to Rider's horror 
• Rider usually helps his mom cook in the kitchen, but she insists you and him go out and have fun, so you end up walking through town together for the whole day
• When you get home, Squidmas time starts; i.e. presents, food, etc. Rider refuses to do any sort of PDA in front of his mom, so you end up having to initiate everything (She finds it sweet, though!)

Army:
• Like Rider, he too takes you to his parent's house for the holidays 
• He's nuts about present shopping; he'll go completely undercover to figure out what the most effective gift would be for you & his family 
• Surprisingly, he'd rather have you unwrap your present when the fam' isn't around (They totally understand it, though)
• Did I forget to mention the holy Squidmas Curry?

Aloha:
• Course, he invites you to his Squidmas party!
• Expect a lot of Squidmas karaoke
• He has a knack for getting the right gifts; he calls it "Santa's intuition". You call it "being lucky"
• Expect him to be particularly affectionate on Squidmas, too! He's a naturally jolly person, but Squidmas completely hypes him up

Mask:
• He absolutely refuses to have you come to his parent's house for Squidmas because he knows his mom would embarrass him
• So you end up forcing him to come to your house instead (What? You're not gonna let him rot in his apartment lmao)
• He acts nonchalant about it on the outside, but on the inside, he's really jittery--ESPECIALLY when the present part comes in
• Squidmas is one of the few days in which Mask is actually smiling and happy for the whole day, so it will be (pleasantly) off-putting at first 

Skull:
• A few days before/a few days after, you and Skull decide to celebrate together by going to the various cafe's/restaurants to try out the Squidmas specials
• You consider the various desserts to be each other's gifts to each other
• Oh, and you force him to swap out his Skull Bandanna, replacing it with a Santa beard
• You teach him how to make hot cocoa and he receives the Big Shock

Gloves:
• Gloves took you out on a Squidmas date to Aloha's party (It's Gloves, don't judge)
• You both wear matching ugly Squidmas sweaters
• Like Mask, he's confident on the outside but jittery on the inside when he gives you your gift
• He gets (illegally) drunk and you end up having to drag him home 

Emperor:
• He's rich, so of course, he's gonna overdo it with presents
• You feel slightly inferior but h e y it's all good! He absolutely adores your gift and he probably puts it in either a glass case for safekeeping (if it's a pet, then it's gonna have an Extra:tm: Cage)
• Even though you both go to each other's homes, he prefers to be at your house (either your or your parent's) because it's different from what he's used to, which he appreciates
• Expect a lot of hugging and showing-off

Prince:
• Prince prioritizes0 his family, so you two do your Squidmas stuff a few days after (27th)
• The one thing you do before the holiday is that you help decorate each other's trees! Prince is too short to put the star on top even with the ladder, so you get to help him with that   
• His face is all flushed and his voice stuttery when he gives you your gift
• His eyes are literally STARS when he receives his gift from you
