The Emperor of Roses

“P-Pretty?!” Hime blushed hard as she flailed about in panic. “I-I don’t want to be seen! I want to be left alone so I can live a shut-in life!”

“I wish no one would find me for a year… but people keep dropping by… ugh.”

Astolfo giggles as he starts to slowly take off the pants while grinning at her. “You know you can stare as much as you want, you don’t need to make me buttless~”

“Fine, but only on the condition that you take all the looks you want at my rear too.”

“My ass is better than Nero’s too. Arrest it if you dare, uhahahahahaaa!!”

She’s putting on the loosest sweatpants on the earth on this one.

“Ahhhhhh Noooooo!”

“Actually… these are pretty cute in their own right.” Astolfo laughs as he checks himself out. “Although if you’re hiding my butt you’re basically admitting that mine is cuter~”

“Gahhhhh! I’m innocent! Innocent! W-Wait! B-Be careful with your hands, Umu!”

“Too late!” She’s putting him in butt handcuffs.

Now to do her duty as Santa, because she’s convinced that next year will be her year, she’s going to go and get ready for the perfect gift for rowdy, loud, and cheer filled Servants.

“There you go…” She just pats her on the head and sighs. “You can padoru separately, so calm down.”

“Padoru~”

Hakuno’s just gonna give her a rough slap on the back to stop her.

“Breathe, Nero. You can’t keep going like this for a whole day.” 

“NERO, NOOO! YOU’LL DIE!!”

“-AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA-”

Breaths.

“PADORU, PAAAAAAAAAAAA-”

She’s going to hold that note all Christmas.
