Original Release: July 14, 2020 (Fanfiction.net), July 15, 2020 (AO3)

Summary

Suddenly at a loss as to what to wear to the Christmas Ball, Makoto and Kyoko seek out Leon and Sayaka for advice, who invite them to go shopping with them to pick out their outfits. Will their shopping trip go off without a hitch?

Tropes

  • Call-Back: While comforting Makoto over his fears of her mocking his Christmas outfit, Kyoko recalls how he didn't mock her burnt hands.
  • Dork in a Sweater: The outfit that Makoto picks out for the Christmas dance included a big fluffy Christmas sweater.
  • The Gadfly: After Makoto apologizes to everyone for freaking out over his Christmas outfit, Sayaka teasingly tells him not to do the same thing at his an Kyoko's wedding, causing the couple to heavily blush.
  • Insecure Love Interest:
    • Makoto ends up locking himself in a changing stall out of fear of Kyoko laughing at the outfit he picked out for the Christmas dance.
    • Kyoko, though not as obvious about her nervousness as Makoto, is also worried about what to wear for the Christmas dance out of fear of disappointing him.
