WHO: Everyone on campus!
WHAT: Holiday goingons
WHERE: The Institute
WHEN: Threads can be set at any time this week.
WARNING(S): if a thread goes into warning label territory, either throw it in the subject line or take it to a separate log.

The entire campus is decorated for the holidays in red greens and silvers. It seems just about every major winter holiday is represented in some way. In the main lobby, there's an absolutely gigantic tree done up in a brilliant light display, with Emma Frost's touch added to the star. She's probably off somewhere enjoying a spot of cocoa with her old comrades, even. But really this wasn't so much for the Institute itself, but for all of its students. The ones that had no other home to return to....

It would be complete overkill. Toushirou might like practical things, but that tends to mean that he gets ahold of them on his own and doesn't necessarily need others to get them for him.

Of course he opens the paper carefully, pulling off the tape, working the seams. Always too neat and tidy about things. He won't even rip wrapping paper, this damn kid. Look, he's fourteen (or nineteen, depending on how you look at it) and thus far too mature for that kind of nonsense. Or something. Let's face it, he just keeps this up for his own benefit, no matter how many people might know what a crock it all is.

His brow ticks up a little at the gift, and the look he gives Shindou is entirely neutral. He sees what you're doing here. It's because you're his friend that he doesn't do the traditional scowl. Obviously it's not enough to bring out the rare beast that is a smile, though.

"I suppose I can find something to do with them."

He doesn't have to say he's going to eat it. You can't make him.
