Rene hung the last of the party decorations over the door and quickly put the ladder away. The tables were set with various edibles, the curtains were crisp and ironed, the paper decorations were festive and cute, and the year was about to change.

2017 though? What a strange number. She wondered what their calendar was based on. No matter, a celebration was always a good time.

"You're too kind," she smiled down at him beaming. "I just want to make sure everyone is well taken care of you know? If I don't, I hope someone else will and so on. We're familia you know? It's what we do." And she did miss her family back in Kanto, but that wouldn't stop her from taking care of those here.

His grip on her tightened somewhat, and he looked up at her again. "Tonight though, we have each other. Perhaps it's time we left?" he suggested. "To continue this somewhere more private..."

[punchtheboner]

Mawrow smiled in understanding. "We do. A nice quite private place sounds like a nice way to end the night, or morning." Depending on where things led.
