[ WOW!! JERK!! he's trying to push him off immediately ]

I'll get sick if you do that!

[ lets Scara push him. ] I’m not going to let you get sick, and even if you did… that just means I’d have to nurse you back to health. [ he grabs at him, tugging him close, so he can scoop him into his arms. ] Let’s bring the tree back, and if you want to ice skate we can, otherwise we can start decorating the tree.

[ there's a soft laugh at that, and he wraps his arms around his neck. His eyes are hearts now, making it obvious how much he's enjoying this ]

We do also need to bake cookies. Maybe we can keep the ice skating for tomorrow.

We can save it for tomorrow. I really don’t want you getting sick besides. [ keeping Scara in his arms he grabs the tree, and using his wild city strength he starts trudging back to the cabin. ] I know we just went shopping the other day, but I bought you a few presents… some new outfits.

Do you want me to show them off to you?

...you could. I did get one thing for us, but the rest are kind of practical. [ cute winter clothes. ] Boring... I, ah, I know, but I didn't want you to get too cold this winter. [ nuzzles into the side of scara's face as he continues to head back to the cabin, eventually reaching the door and dropping the tree, so he can set him down. ] Alright, let's see if we can get this beast inside.

I don't mind boring. I can still do a pretty twirl for you, no?

But let's focus on the tree first.

[ he will actually try to help to get it inside ]

Alright. [ going to drag it inside with scara's help and get it all set up. he goes to the bunch of bags shoved off to the side and brings them over. they're full of all sorts of ornaments. ] I'm going to go put some hot chocolate on.

Pulling on all the stops for me? I like that.

Hah, why wouldn't I, Pitcka, it's our first holiday together. I want it to be special... not that it wouldn't have been if we just, I don't know, sat around all night, but... I thought we could do all these fun things and make some new memories.

[ he's going to start going through the bags ]

This is a nice tradition, isn't it.

...mm. I used to get to go home for the holidays, so I would get to spend time with all of my siblings. I... obviously can't do that here, and it's a bit sad, since being at home was always nice. Maybe next time I'll have the chance to introduce you to everybody. [ he's grinning at scara from the kitchen. ] But gifts and decorating aren't the only holiday traditions... [ guess who has some mistletoe in their hair. ]

[ he comes over carrying two mugs of hotcoco. ] If you get caught under the mistletoe... you have to kiss.

Oh? But is this really getting "caught" under it?

[ he's going to take one mug off of his hand, but he does use his other one to drag him down for a kiss ]

[ childe's grin broadens. look, it was the perfect plan! ] You could have evaded capture if you didn't want your hot chocolate. [ he's about to snicker when scara pulls him into a kiss. ] ...mm. [ circles his now free arm around him and tugs him flush against himself. ] Love you, Pitcka.

I love you too.

... Sometimes it still feels odd to say. To think my missing heart was this close all along.

I know. [ gives him another peck on the cheek. ] I never considered that I could have a relationship given... everything. Being a weapon for her Majesty doesn't really make it easy, since I'm regularly sent out to do this and that, but... not only that... [ he gives a weak smile. ] My Foul Legacy and Delusion... I still need to figure that out, since I can't talk to Hades and sensei about it anymore. [ as much as he'd like to be able to rely on them he... can't just assume things are going to work out. ]

And yet you're the one who pursued me. Did you do the same for Zhongli? Are we sure you weren't secretly hoping for that? You are quite the family man.

I couldn't help myself. I liked you. Still do, hahaha. And Zhongli and I had more of a natural progression... I like to think he liked me too. [ gives a chuckle. ] And, yeah, but... I don't think I'll ever get to have a family. I'm just enjoying the time that we have together and hoping I can do something to... make it longer and make it last...

...Mm.

We're going to have many more of these christmas dates. You're not allowed to die on me.

We are, and if I need to use my wish to become a yokai and live longer, then I will. I’m not going anywhere, Pitcka.

[ he's going to pull him closer ]

That's right. You always keep your promises.

I do… and I made a promise to you, Kotik, always and forever.

... Mm.

[ going to put his coco cup down and then put a hand on Childe's chest to push him down, so he can move on top of him and straddle him ]

Always and forever.

[ grabs at scara's ass because he can't *not* while they're like this. ] You're making it incredibly hard to be good...

[ Well he is pretty okay with that. He grins at the words, and then brings a hand to his chin, tipping it up ]

Maybe I heard a different version of that mistletoe tradition.
