[Doll is in her apartment, setting out some Christmas treats, some that she tried making herself and others that she bought. She's still in her usual boyish clothes but they're new for once instead of the patched and darned ones she usually wears otherwise.
Tiger's at her heels, barking, and she crouches next to him to give him a cookie to eat.]
Don' usually get t'do anythin' like this at 'ome, y'know. But you'll like t'see all our friends an' get t'play a bit, won't ya?
[Cookie already eaten, Tiger just barks again and licks at her hand, and she laughs and pets him.]
((ooc: Backdated to Christmas Day evening. The post is open for action with any of her friends she might have asked to drop by so she could give them their presents!))

Date: 2009-12-26 08:34 pm (UTC)She walked into the living room, holding Doll's present, and looked around for her roommate.]
[action]
Date: 2009-12-26 10:05 pm (UTC)And she was more grateful than she could properly express to have had someone else in the apartment for Christmas Day. She couldn't stand being alone. As it was, she'd probably gone a little bit overboard with Anne's present as a way of saying thank you.
She smiled at the other girl when she entered the room, looking up from fixing the table.]
'ey Anne! Merry Christmas again!
[action]
Date: 2009-12-26 10:17 pm (UTC)Merry Christmas!
[She settled down beside Doll and handed her a beautifully wrapped box.]
For you.
[Inside is a brightly colored scarf, hat, and glove set -- very "circus" looking.]
[action]
Date: 2009-12-26 10:23 pm (UTC)[She grinned as she took it and got up to fetch Anne's present and hand it to her. It was less well-wrapped than the one she'd just been given, but it was clear she'd made an effort with it.]
This is yours. 'ope you like it!
[The present was a very pretty dress, as close to the style that Doll saw Anne usually wearing as she'd been able to find in the City.
She started to unwrap her present, Tiger jumping up barking as though he wanted to help.]
[action]
Date: 2009-12-26 10:41 pm (UTC)Oh Doll, it's beautiful!
[action]
Date: 2009-12-26 10:46 pm (UTC)They're lovely, Anne!
[She grinned and laughed to see Anne liking her present so much.]
D'you think so? I ain't too good at pickin' out clothes...but thought you'd like it!
[action]
Date: 2009-12-27 03:00 am (UTC)[She held the dress up against her to admire her better.]
You have excellent taste. Where did you get it?
[action]
Date: 2009-12-27 09:18 am (UTC)[She put on her new gloves to see how they looked.]
They're really nice an' warm...oh, I got it at one of the shops 'ere!
[action]
Date: 2009-12-27 10:19 pm (UTC)So are your friends coming by tonight?
[action]
Date: 2009-12-27 10:49 pm (UTC)Oh, yeah, they should be! Timothy, an' Allen. Maybe Anew. D'you want t'meet 'em?

action
Date: 2009-12-27 09:41 am (UTC)'ey Allen! Merry Christmas! Come in.
[She opened the door wider for him but then had to quickly grab Tiger as the puppy tried to rush outside, barking excitedly.]
action
Date: 2009-12-27 04:21 pm (UTC)Merry Christmas, thank you.
[[ooc: switched to past tense on purpose. Sounds better. :)]]
action
Date: 2009-12-27 04:55 pm (UTC)[Her arms were full of the struggling puppy, only putting him down once she'd closed the door behind them. As soon as he was on the ground again he promptly ran circles around Allen, wagging his tail at seeing someone new.]
An' sorry 'bout this little fella, can't open the door without 'im thinkin' 'm takin' 'im out for a walk.
((ooc: okay =D))
action
Date: 2009-12-29 01:19 am (UTC)Oh, it's fine. If he's so energetic, it means he's healthy!
[He stood back up, looking back to Doll.]
I got lost a little, but it's fine. How are you?
action
Date: 2009-12-29 01:28 am (UTC)[Tiger barked again, tail still wagging in a friendly manner as he tried to lick the hand Allen was petting him with. It made Doll grin and laugh.]
See, 'e likes ya!
[Though Tiger took after his owner in that manner, and Doll liked just about anyone.]
'm fine thanks! D'you want somethin' to eat or drink?
[The table was spread with lots of yummy looking food and she'd put the kettle on to boil. She wasn't used to entertaining people at all, but she figured she could do worse than feed them.]
Re: action
Date: 2009-12-29 01:41 am (UTC)Yes, please.
action
Date: 2009-12-29 01:45 am (UTC)[Tiger followed him to the table in hope of being fed as well while Doll disappeared into the kitchen, calling out behind her.]
D'you like tea?
Re: action
Date: 2009-12-29 06:04 pm (UTC)Tea? [nomnom] Yes, please!
action
Date: 2009-12-29 06:17 pm (UTC)Blimey, 'aven't you 'ad anythin' to eat since ya got 'ere?
action
Date: 2009-12-29 06:26 pm (UTC)Um. Heh...Sorry...I'm just. A heavy eater...Also, I can't cook and neither can my roommate, so there hasn't been too much to eat...
action
Date: 2009-12-29 07:02 pm (UTC)[She took a seat at the table as well, pushing a couple more plates over in his direction. She knew too well what it was like to go hungry.]
Ya know, can teach you t'cook if ya like. Nothin' fancy, but enough t'get by?
action
Date: 2009-12-29 07:12 pm (UTC)[His eyes light up as more food is pushed towards him as he finishes off others, and he goes right for it. Sorry, Doll, Allen's got an unreal appetite.]
action
Date: 2009-12-29 07:17 pm (UTC)[She hides a smile to see him enjoying the food so much, pouring out the tea for both of them and taking a mince pie for herself, picking off pieces of the crust to feed to Tiger.]
How've you been findin' it 'ere so far?
Re: action
Date: 2009-12-29 07:57 pm (UTC)It's okay...So far it's peaceful not worrying about a war at home...but I know that there are some dangerous people here, too...
action
Date: 2009-12-29 08:33 pm (UTC)But there's lots of good people 'ere too. More'n at 'ome, I think.
