[Eilonwy blinks] No, neither of those- I bought the yarn a while ago when I was learning and made it. I've been working on a small mountain of them since then to get everything finished ahead of now. [But she brightens at hearing it'll help.] Good! I didn't want it to be uncomfortable. I'm glad it can serve a purpose then.
[For him?? Katsuki blinks, looking down at the scarf and feeling a little bizarre. Buying someone a scarf is one thing, but making it is something else. He feels the tips of his ears get a little warm, and his skin get kind of itchy. Urgh...how annoying. You sappy bastards are going to be the death of him.]
[Eilonwy smiles. If Bakugou actually does die from the sap, she's got healing powers. It'll work out.]
It is, the yarn is very nice. [Translation back: You're welcome.] But I'm sure you have some work to get back to, so I don't want to overstay my welcome.
...Hold on. [Katsuki grunts, because he doesn't feel good about taking something without giving something back. Yes, he knows that's not how gifts work, and he does have something planned to give to Eilonwy on actual Christmas day, but...fuck it, he can give her something early, too.
Puttering over to his kitchen, Katsuki opens up a cupboard and removes a rather plain looking tin. Very unassuming, and there's even a label on it that says "salt". Inside is, uh...definitely not salt, but a baggy of various chocolate dipped pretzels - white, dark, milk, and even strawberry and orange.]
[Eilonwy takes the tin, reading the label and looking at him for a second before popping it open and seeing the treats. She lights up.] Oh! Thank you very much, Bakugou! They look wonderful, I'm sure they'll go well with tea.
[Maybe not but Eilonwy will test that theory happily.]
[Tea...maybe, if she drinks an especially rich, black tea. Maybe a chai, with a lot of spices and a rich kind of smoothness to it. Otherwise, coffee will be the best bet - the saltiness and rich chocolate will go really well with the bitterness of coffee, especially something strong like an espresso. Katsuki does kind of lament giving his own personal stash, but...he can get more. Not big deal, and he won't make a fuss, either. Probably best not to have them around when someone with an enormous sweet tooth is now in the house, too.
Yes, he's talking about Uraraka. >:C He's got your number, Cheeks.]
[Eilonwy's tea is pretty strong but probably not enough to go with the pretzels. She makes a note to get some coffee on the way back.
Wow just read your friend Bakugou! Anyway, Eilonwy closes the tin and smiles.] Coffee, then. Now, as I said, I'm sure you're busy and the gifts have been exchanged so.
[She heads back to the front door, steps out of the house slippers, and changes back into her shoes.] I'll speak with you again soon, I'm sure.
[It won't be difficult to get coffee here, thank fucking god. The cafes in Somnius are good, and serve some really nice blends as well as bags of roasted whole beans and grounds, too. He has a bag of grounds (because he doesn't have a grinder yet), but Katsuki doesn't often drink coffee, it's a rare thing for him and usually when he's out and needs a pick-me-up of energy he'll stop by a cafe and get something to go.
Humming, he walks Eilonwy back towards the door and opens it for her when she's got her shoes back on. Look, he can't be...kind of a gentleman. Sometimes. Maybe...a little. Look, just he grateful he's not tossing you out on your ass, okay? :|]
If I manage to finish early, you'll catch me on patrol, probably. [He shrugs.] Later.
[And with a nod, Katsuki bids Eilonwy goodbye and closes the door to get back to cleaning.]

I didn't make these, but call it a deposit.
