Summary: Souji's catch-all for the second half of December
The Story: When not having crazy Mansion dreams, Souji can be found...

The Diner
The diner has been decorated just like everything else in the Mansion. Of course, like every year, Souji's made his own additions, like the Colonel (plus twinkling fairy lights). This is the fourth annual KFC Christmas in Wonderland and he's pretty sure he's gotten even closer to the 11 herbs and spices recipe (it took a lot of practice and many days eating nothing but fried chicken).

Inside the diner, visitors will find plenty of fried chicken, a few appropriate sides, and plenty of Christmas cake complete the menu. Cocoa, coffee, tea, and various other drinks are available.

Souji's there, of course, to greet anyone who comes in and to hang out with folks, especially the others who work there when they choose. Regardless of which category people fall into, he will try to feed them. (He'll even make any non-fried-chicken-or-cake foods people might want, but seriously, what more could you want?)

Outside
Now that there's finally snow, Souji can be found outside playing with his very fat, small pet dragon and a gray and white bunny, which remains mostly bundled up inside his jacket, its head peeking out under his chin. He plays with the dragon, coaxing it to run, as well as making rather distinctive snowmen, each of which Tefra (the very fat, small dragon) immediately pounces on. He never seems particularly bothered by that.

He also takes his little troupe down to the beach, though that's less to play and more to just stare out at the horizon. He did that at home in the past, though it wasn't usually during the winter. It makes him feel nostalgic.

Around the Mansion + Gifts!
Souji spends time at various tables around the mansion working on his Christmas gifts. He can be found in his own room, the library, diner, tea rooms, even the dining room working on them as well as their very nice packaging.

He makes enough of these gifts to give to everyone he knows, even those he's only spoken to a handful of times. He delivers them on December 24, giving them in person if he can, and leaving them at peoples' doors along with a "Happy Christmas" note if he can't.

Of course, there are a few people he has special gifts for.

Dreaming
Here is Souji's dream thread!

Diner, midway through the event.

Dear god. Why isn't he getting any sleep lately? He's tried everything at this point, even indulging the urge to puff on the opium pipe, but no matter what he does he always ends up in the white Wonderland feeling the same restless wakefulness. At this point, he's given up on trying to sleep and heads to the diner for some coffee and perhaps a holiday treat.

The first thing that greets him when he gets there is the statue of a gentleman from the American South dressed up in a red and white suit. Is that supposed to be the owner's interpretation of Father Christmas? Stranger still, it seems like the special of the day is of the avian variety; Some kind of chicken or small turkey has been torn to pieces, coated with a layer of rough crust, and unceremoniously dumped in a bucket to be served to the happy customers.

Dorian stared blankly at the whole display.

That's it. He hasn't slept in so long that he's finally loosing his mind.

... Oh! Someone's talking to him. He should probably say something.

"... What is this?" is the first thing Dorian's sleepless mind could think of. It takes a second to realize this is a stupid question, so he clears his throat and clarified.

"I mean, what are you doing to the turkey? Is that meant to be your Father Christmas?" He points at the statue of Colonel Sanders. "What sort of cake is that?"

... Nailed it.

"That's lovely..."

... Dorian quickly shakes his head, trying to keep himself awake. Urgh, maybe he should take some food and sulk back to his room or something...

"... I suppose I could try the chicken," he mumbles, even though he might be a bit disgusted if he got a good night's rest. "What usually goes with it?"

He was going to ask about the Colonel, but it slipped his mind. Maybe he'll remember in a few minutes or so.

"Oh! If you could throw some turkey in with the chicken, that would be wonderful!"

Deprive a shameless hedonist of sleep, and he starts wanting to try the strangest things. At least he sounds more enthusiastic now.
theothermrgray: (askance)

"That's what people usually have for Christmas where I come from. Or goose, occasionally, but I thought turkey was closer to chicken and easier to obtain..."

He begins to ponder over Christmas dinner for a moment. The last dinner party he went to around Christmas had a lovely three course meal. Yes, there was turkey, but it was roasted in an oven and not boiled in oil and covered with crumbs. He also enjoyed the Roman punch and the oysters, and the macaroons made a nice little snack...

But this was not a dinner party. This was a diner that served fried chicken for Christmas. Might as well...

"Though I don't really mind trying the chicken."
theothermrgray: (small smile)

Dude, it's fine.

"That sounds great," He smiles and nods. "And you really should try it sometime. It tastes really good."

Dorian would have thought about a better word if he wasn't so tired.

"What sorts of sides can you make?"
theothermrgray: (perhaps)

[personal profile] theothermrgray 2017-01-19 11:07 pm (UTC)(link)
"Hm... In that case, I'll take the mashed potatoes and gravy."

He thinks the other fellow could manage that. "Oh, and you don't have to worry about the goose today. It's been a long week for many of us."
theothermrgray: (look down)

Dorian nods in thanks and picks up a piece of the deep fried bird (he wasn't quite sure if this was the turkey or the chicken) and inspects it a little before taking a bite.

... It was turkey. "This is pretty good," he admits. "A bit on the greasy side, but otherwise decent."

What? Can't a man of good standing enjoy a bit of common street fare every once in a while?
