Wednesday: Christmas feast

[mylandmyrules]

As promised, Nell had created quite a great feast that day. In addition to the huge prime rib with au jus and all the fixings anyone could have hoped for, she had pies and baked goods and the spicy stew he loved and a few little treats from home that she'd wheedled out of Ignis.

The house smelled delightful and there were candles and a few presents by their fireplace and everything they could need for a wonderful day together.

Yeah, okay. Nell had said she had a pretty impressive spread planned for Christmas, and Gladio knew he wouldn't be disappointed. He knew he'd be impressed. But, as usual, she managed to just hit the mark slightly above his expectations, and he had to grin.

"You know," he said, coming to bother her in the kitchen yet again with a kiss and roaming eyes for bites to steal, "you might've been right. All this might not even need a second Cup Noodle^TM."

It should be noted that he was, of course, half-way through his first Cup Noodle^TM. It was like a warm-up! It was always important to warm-up, right?
