I didn’t cheap out on the background, really!
It’s, uh… er…

Look, COOKIES! *flee*

#8 and beyond is the guild open house and the Christmas party.
Brace for table-dancing, table-HIDING and Xbox-huge Santa.

…you know, drawing cakes and frostings and sugar powders and such when I’m hungry is totally a bad idea. BLAAAAAAAAH.

Oh hi, Christmas is less than a week away? o_O;

For this, we must go back in time… or at least, anytime before M.E. 1966.

Like demons need an excuse to party it up.
Yet… 12/17 = Phil Day. It used to be that for elves, the idea of a royal birthday party was some stuffy-ass ball in the castle. Not anymore after Yggdrasil officially allied with the demons of neighboring Niflheim!
And damn right, Paring’s gonna pull out all the stops and haul his Santa Prinny Squad and other demon flunkies with him across the border to turn Yggdrasil into EPIC DANCE PARTY. Hell, make it an island-wide Christmas party while he’s at it, given the proximity to 12/25.
It gets broadcast on Asgard Network, of course– Paring himself serves as the MC, but hands the mic over to Phil to let the old dude say a few words for the crowd (and to yuk it up for photographers).

Also… Prinny cameraman.
Doooooood.

Snowschemes are usually in the modern era (M.E. 2006+). This one is from Episode 0. Phil and Paring! (and I haven’t drawn either of them in a reeeeeally long time.)

Because Phil’s birthday is on 12/17 (gee, I wonder why), and Paring is his party-obsessed BFF… naturally a huge party ensues and the whole thing is considered an island-wide holiday party in addition to celebrating Phil’s birthday. Faintly hinted to in the background is a Prinny DJ, though surely there are other Prinny workers and other party-goers (elves, demons and Prinnies).

Fan service.
Who wants some?

…apparently Denlan does!
