I know everyone is excited for Christmas, but...

Miss Noel's birthday is also that day. I'd like to throw some kind of party for her... since she loves the holiday so much as well.

If anyone's interested, please let me know. I'm sure she'd be happy to see you all. And I could use the help.

Oh! But please don't tell her! I want it to be a surprise...

... It is?

[Frankly, Elliot Nightray had been a jerk for the last few years. He hadn't really thought about when Noel's birthday might have been. Of course, he didn't even pay much attention to his own in this place, but as much as he usually ignored it, even he felt kind of bad for failing to even ask her about it before.]

You didn't know?!

[Shame on you. Ada gives him a slightly shocked and... frankly, disappointed look.]

It never came up before!

[He returned her look with one of frustrated annoyance, but it was clear from his voice, he knew that he was in the wrong.]

What are you going to do about it?

[That is clearly implying that you should do something Elliot. You know. The way women like to hint every now and then...]

Who said I was going to do anything about it?!

[... If Ada is observant, she could probably tell, Elliot just didn't want to admit that yes, he did want to do something about it. It was just to sappy to say it to her. What would he even do though?]

Aren't you?

[She can tell he wants to. That's why she pushes. She has faith in him.]

Please! It would make Miss Noel so happy...

[Stare....]

... What?

[The staring is creeping him out.]

You don't get it at all...

[Sigh. Men are so oblivious. But she knows. She knows how much it would mean to Miss Noel.]

It would make her happier than anything.

She's already getting a party. She'll be happy anyway.

She'd be sad if you weren't there, you know. Noel likes you a lot.

[Ada had known since first meeting Noel.]

[... He knows she does.

Damnit.]

It's going to be at our house. I couldn't get away from it even if I wanted to.

[Implying that he didn't.]

From: [identity profile] purethingsonly.livejournal.com
You promise?

[She doesn't believe he couldn't but... she knows he isn't that heartless. Still.]

From: [identity profile] snapekillsedgar.livejournal.com
As if I'd run off. It's Christmas!

[Conveniently dodging the thought of what he could actually do for Noel on the day.]

Date: 2011-12-11 10:22 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] purethingsonly.livejournal.com
So what are you going to get her?

[Whether it's Christmas or birthday thoughts, the point is, a present! You have to get her a present!]

From: [identity profile] snapekillsedgar.livejournal.com
[He considered lying, saying he wasn't going to get anything for a moment. Even he wasn't that rude. Finally, he sighed softly and settled for being honest.]

No idea.

[Aha! Her chance to repay you for your kindness Elliot, here it is.]

Maybe I can help.

Date: 2011-12-11 10:35 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] snapekillsedgar.livejournal.com
Why? Do you think you know what she'd want?

[He'd known her for about two years. It was weird to think Ada would know better then he did.]

Date: 2011-12-11 10:37 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] purethingsonly.livejournal.com
Do you have any better ideas?

[Its not something she can think of off the top of her head but... two heads could still be better than one!]

We should go look. I'm sure you'll find something she'd like.

From: [identity profile] snapekillsedgar.livejournal.com
Focus on what you're doing. You're putting the party together. I'll take care of this.

[They'd been getting to know each other better, but it was still hard for him to open himself up to all of her help.]

There are a lot of people helping me you know.

[Things would be taken care of in no time at this rate. But...]

Oh well. But if that's how you feel about it I guess there's no helping it...

[For once she'll try NOT pushing so hard.]
