As a rule, he didn't tend to do much for the winter holidays -- unless you counted "go somewhere it's not winter" -- but some combination of Fandom's festivities and the cold weather had actually put him into something of a Christmas-y mood this year, so the Rouge's deck was -- well. Decked. There were string lights and garlands all over the open deck area, especially around the table holding the big thermos of hot, buttered rum. He'd set up a little fire pit on the metal cargo-bay doors, and the door to the galley and lounge below-decks was propped open with a now-dormant loaf of yesterday's fruitcake, in case people preferred to go in where it was warmer.

As discussed, Duke had only mentioned the party to a few people since planning it with Rey. It was Christmas, though, so if people decided to wander up and say hi, he wouldn't turn them away.

[up early and ready for all the slowplay. A few people in the know expected, but as it says in the narrative, it's open for wandering in if you want, too!]

"No." She shrugged. "I don't know, they just bug me. Something about what they're saying this time of year should be about."

"I mostly thought it was about togetherness, things like that," Rey said.

"There's a lot about family," Octavia replied, with a hint of a dry tone. "And romance."

"I don't have much in the way of either of those," Rey said just as dryly. "I just like the idea."

Octavia technically had both, but it was - like so many things - really complicated.

She shrugged. There was something a little uncomfortable, a little evasive about it. "I just don't like most of those movies."
