A Belated New Year's gift-giving to all! [Open]

[relentless_sentinel]

Who: Nephenee and YOU
What: Nephenee's handing out gifts for all the Corsairs! Yes, we said all! And even some non-Corsairs!
Where: All around the place (seriously)
When: Shortly after the fireworks
Warnings: None known, will edit if needed

It'd been not that long ago that a certain Sentinel and Corsair learned of gift giving for the solstice and for New Year's, and being the type of girl who likes to take care of everyone, she jumped at the chance to do so. So she's been working like mad to prepare things for everyone.

Unfortunately, little things like missions got in the way. But that's over now, and the oven's been blazing like mad for a good long while. The kitchen smells like sweet, buttery heaven, and once the last bunch is done, she grabs the more personalized gifts, and heads off to hand out everything!

So when she finds you, you get a hopeful, and a bit shy, "H-Howdy!" The tall woman's in her normal blue armour, but there's a little blue scarf around her neck over her orange neckerchief, too. It's the only warm-looking thing on her. Other than her cheeks, that is; those are bright red. "Ah, uh, gotta present for New Year's for ya." 

[OOC: EVERYONE gets gifts! If you're close CR, you get personalized gifts! And if you're injured? YOU'RE GETTING HEALS AND GIFTS.

No, it doesn't matter if she knows you or not. If you're here, you get a thing.]

Aira follows her nose to the kitchen before Nephenee is finished prepping. Though, is it rude to just come barging in to bug someone she doesn't know while they're baking? It can't be helped. She loves sweets, and she hasn't had freshly-baked cookies in who knows how long.

By awkward way of greeting, Aira sllowly leans over and peeks her head in. Luckily, Nephenee looks friendly enough to humor her, so Aira smiles and flashes her a peace sign.

"Yo! Smells deliciously amazing in here. What kind are you making?"

Eh, she wouldn't be the first person today to come in. At least for both their sakes, the soldier hears the girl approaching before she's greeted. Though, instead of in her normal armour that Aira might have seen around, she's in more casual clothes: a work dress in shades of blue under an apron, her long green hair pulled back underneath a white scarf dotted with yellow flowers. It doesn't hide her face much at all, but it does keep the strands from getting in the way.

Even though she doesn't know the newcomer, Nephenee's in a far more relaxed mood than if she'd been caught unawares or outside - this may not be her personal kitchen, but baking therapy is A Thing, and she's good at it - and she smiles warmly.

"Ah...thank ya, miss." There's a light hesitance there in the country drawl, but she's getting more used to this. "Ah think the locals would call it 'shortbread'? It's a treat from back home."

Aira is also dressed for casual comfort: a baggy sweater, athletic shorts, tights, and cute loafers. But yes indeed, having seen Neph a few times in passing, the helmet and armor are what she recognizes her for. Though she's plenty striking in other aspects, which Aira immediately notes as she scoots into the kitchen with bouncy steps.

"Hehe. You're very, very welcome."

She laces her fingers behind her back and looks around.

"Not gonna lie, I'd love a taste once they're done!" she then exclaims, like that isn't the most obvious thing ever. "Uh, but I can help in the meantime. Like with cleaning up? Or are you making another batch?"
