[00:07] ---
    Hey, Byakuya!
[00:09] ---
    I've found a great job for you.
[00:12] ---
    Welcome back.
[00:13] ---
    It's an easy one, all you gotta do is carry shabu-shabu.
[00:17] ---
    The catch is you can't wear underwear!
[00:21] ---
    Uhm, why can't I wear underwear?
[00:25] ---
    Is that because of the shabu-shabu?
[00:28] ---
    Of course it is! It's a huge reason!
[00:33] ---
    Imagine if you were the one wearing undies if nobody else was.
[00:37] ---
    That'd just be perverted.
[00:39] ---
    You've been gettin' all embarrassed wearin' undies anyway~
[00:45] ---
    N-No thank you!
[00:46] ---
    Don't go actin' all innocent...
[00:49] ---
    I'm sure you let him rub up on you a few times.
[00:52] ---
    Rub?
[00:54] ---
    Speaking of rub, I made these...
[00:57] ---
    They're the kind of pickles you make with a rub.
[01:00] ---
    Are these okay for dinner?
[01:02] ---
    You're pretty amazing, smoothly changin'
     the topic from rubbing to pickled foods.
[01:09] ---
    Is that the only side dish?

    Before Christmas
[01:26] ---
    Christmas...
[02:29] ---
    A seasonal cosmetic gift set...
[02:33] ---
    That'd be a good one, but she doesn't
    wear makeup so that won't work.
[02:37] ---
    Jewelry might send the wrong message...
[02:39] ---
    Whatcha lookin' at?
[02:40] ---
    My, oh my, a present for your girl?
[02:43] ---
    It is a Christmas present!
[02:45] ---
    Would you like us to give you some advice?
[02:47] ---
    I'm good. Thanks.
[02:49] ---
    That's cold of you...
[02:51] ---
    Women know what other women want.
[02:53] ---
    Alcyone's just a femboy tho~
[02:56] ---
    And Spica's just a legal loli tho~
[02:58] ---
    I may look like a kid but
     I'm a full-grown woman on the inside!
[03:01] ---
    Hmm, is that so?
[03:03] ---
    I know that the inside might be more
    like the outside than you think, tho~?
[03:07] ---
    Ohemgee, you're sooo rude!
[03:09] ---
    "The inside..." "More than you think...?"
[03:12] ---
    Does that mean...
[03:14] ---
    Only Alcyone knows why Spica is like that because...
[03:17] ---
    Oh, the immorality!
[03:21] ---
    Bad girl!
[03:22] ---
    Don't get all aroused over your fantasies
     of your colleague's foolishness!
[03:26] ---
    Oh, it's Bella.
[03:31] ---
    Yes, what is it?
[03:32] ---
    Mira's trying to pick out a present for his girlfriend.
[03:35] ---
    We're trying to give him some ideas.
[03:38] ---
    Mira's girlfriend?
[03:40] ---
    Girlfriend...
[03:42] ---
    Girlfriend...?!
[03:46] ---
    You have a girlfriend, Mira?
[03:48] ---
    Don't get the wrong idea.
[03:50] ---
    I'm just trying to find a gift for a lady friend of mine.
[03:53] ---
    Is that all? How lame!
[03:57] ---
    I'm not surprised. We all know
     Mira's in love with his work.
[04:00] ---
    For a lady friend?
[04:02] ---
    Could it possibly be...me?
[04:04] ---
    You know that certain presents
    have meanings behind them, right?
[04:08] ---
    Yeah, like giving lipstick means "I want to kiss you."
[04:12] ---
    K-Kiss? M-Mira wants to kiss me?!
[04:15] ---
    A necklace can mean "I want to tie you down."
[04:19] ---
    Tie as in confine?! Like M-Mira will tie me up?!
[04:22] ---
    And clothes mean...
[04:24] ---
    You wanna strip them off~
[04:28] ---
    S-St-Strip them off?!
[04:33] ---
    What's all this, Mira? There are so many.
[04:36] ---
    Each present has a different meaning.
[04:39] ---
    But when you put them all together...
[04:43] ---
    ...It comes to mean "I want all of you".
[04:48] ---
    Mira, wait...that's...
[04:52] ---
    Noo!!
[04:54] ---
    You fiend! You four-eyed fiend!
[04:57] ---
    It's indecent! It's so indecent!
[04:59] ---
    What happened with Bella?
[05:01] ---
    She gets like that sometimes.
[05:03] ---
    So, when are you giving it to her?
[05:06] ---
    Have you made plans with her yet?
[05:09] ---
    No, not yet.
[05:10] ---
    What, why not?
[05:11] ---
    It's almost Christmas!
[05:13] ---
    Right?!

    I want meat...
[05:20] ---
    Are you alright with just a fish sausage?
[05:23] ---
    I don't mean fish...
[05:29] ---
    Oh look, there's a prick.
[05:31] ---
    How dare you! Why are you here?
[05:33] ---
    What's so weird about us walkin'
    around our neighborhood, baldie?
[05:36] ---
    Byakuya-chan! My dear friend!
[05:40] ---
    I missed you!
[05:41] ---
    Fck!
[05:43] ---
    Hibana wanted to make a dessert for Mimori
    Byakuya for Christmas so we came to buy ingredients.
[05:49] ---
    For Christmas?
[05:50] ---
    Fck!
[05:51] ---
    Can that rude little chick even make a proper cake?
[05:56] ---
    Don't be rude! What are you even here for anyway?
[06:00] ---
    We're on different levels, ya baldie.
[06:04] ---
    We didn't come to shop.
[06:06] ---
    We came for freebies! We're here for
    okra and bread crusts!
[06:10] ---
    Why do you have to sound so pompous
     when what you're doing is so shabby!
[06:14] ---
    Thank you, Hibana-chan.
[06:17] ---
    If you're okay with a sweetened
     bread crust, I'll make you some.
[06:22] ---
    Fck!
[06:24] ---
    Hibana, if you eat those free leftover bread crusts...
[06:27] ---
    you might end up with an upset stomach.
[06:30] ---
    What?! They're not leftovers...
[06:33] ---
    The baker is friendly with Byakuya
    and they give her the unsold stuff.
[06:38] ---
    That's what it means to be sympathetic,
     ya balding bastard.
[06:42] ---
    Sympathy?
[06:44] ---
    I don't believe making sweetened bread
    crust is worth Hibana's time, money, or effort.
[06:51] ---
    You're such a dumbass!
[06:53] ---
    You wouldn't know gourmet foods
     if it slapped you on the tongue.
[06:56] ---
    Byakuya's food tastes like love, bozo.
[07:01] ---
    You think her taste was influenced by
     the environment she was raised in?
[07:05] ---
    By that standard, Hibana was raised as
    an example of sophistication.
[07:10] ---
    Tea ceremony, flower arrangement, playing instruments...
[07:12] ---
    And her specialty is apple pie!
[07:14] ---
    Byakuya's lived alone since she left that facility.
[07:18] ---
    She only makes simple dishes...
[07:21] ---
    But you see her true charm when she's eating.
[07:27] ---
    Lick Lick, it's melting...
[07:30] ---
    Such vile behavior, knock it off!!
[07:33] ---
    You thought about it, didn't ya, pervy birdy~
[07:37] ---
    How dare you...!
[07:38] ---
    Food is...
[07:40] ---
    She spoke.
[07:41] ---
    She spoke...
[07:42] ---
    The most important ingredient for a meal comes...
[07:46] ---
    ...From the heart!
[07:48] ---
    From the heart?
[07:50] ---
    There's a sense of trust that goes into making
     and eating something for the first time.
[07:57] ---
    Everyone's experience of eating the same thing is different!
[08:01] ---
    You shouldn't be trying to test which is better!
[08:04] ---
    Cause that'd be just fcked up!
[08:10] ---
    Hibana...where did I go wrong?
[08:17] ---
    Fck, fck.
[08:21] ---
    From the heart...
[08:24] ---
    Mr. Lieutenant!
[08:27] ---
    I'm sorry to keep, ah--!
[08:33] ---
    Are you alright?
[08:36] ---
    Yes...
[08:37] ---
    The end-of-year balloon sale was nonstop...
[08:41] ---
    Did you come here on your break?
[08:43] ---
    I wanted to see you, even if it was only for a little while.
[08:48] ---
    You're too cute! Too stinkin' cute!!!
[08:51] ---
    Do you like bunnies?
[08:54] ---
    There's not much time, so I'll cut to the chase.
[08:57] ---
    I wanted to ask, what are you
    doing on the 24th and 25th?
[09:01] ---
    On Christmas?
[09:04] ---
    Oh yeah, that's Christmas, isn't it?
[09:06] ---
    Work.
[09:07] ---
    The pay on Christmas is good.
[09:10] ---
    I see...
[09:16] ---
    We could have cake...
[09:18] ---
    If I work hard, I'll have the evening off, and then...
[09:23] ---
    ...Would you be free?
[09:33] ---
    Well, I am a busy man.
[09:35] ---
    But seeing as how an old enemy
     is calling for me, I suppose it'll be alright.
[09:39] ---
    Is there something else?
[09:41] ---
    Uhm...
[09:43] ---
    Can I say something selfish?
[09:48] ---
    Go on. I won't think it's selfish though.
[09:54] ---
    Then, would you eat dinner with me?
[09:59] ---
    That's fine by me.
[10:01] ---
    To be honest, you don't have to ask so intently.
[10:04] ---
    We've had dinner plenty of times together already.
[10:07] ---
    I guess so...
[10:10] ---
    It's Christmas, though...
[10:13] ---
    Usually, I don't even think about it.
[10:17] ---
    But this year...
[10:21] ---
    I found myself wanting to spend my time with you.
[10:31] ---
    What exactly are you planning?!
[10:33] ---
    You want to spend Christmas night together? Which means...!
[10:38] ---
    No! You're supposed to be my enemy!
[10:41] ---
    Then just what is this?!
[10:43] ---
    My brain can't comprehend this at all!!
[10:45] ---
    Maybe it's too troublesome...
[10:49] ---
    No, not at all.
[10:53] ---
    Is there something you'd like to eat?
[10:55] ---
    I'll make it happen, whatever it is.
[10:58] ---
    Uhm, you can come to my place!
[11:01] ---
    We can eat dinner and spend time together.
[11:08] ---
    Okay. If that's what you want, that's what we'll do.
[11:11] ---
    Yes, I can't wait.
[11:16] ---
    How are you so cute!?
