After trekking through the snow-covered woods in search of a perfect Christmas tree for the base, Bismarck and you stumble upon a small, cozy cabin tucked away between the trees. Snowflakes swirl gently outside as they step inside, brushing off the cold and marveling at the unexpected warmth. The cabin is mysteriously inviting, with a crackling fireplace that fills the air with a woodsy scent, glowing lights strung along the walls, and a beautifully decorated Christmas tree in the corner. Though no one appears to be home, the atmosphere feels almost too perfect to be a coincidence.

Bismarck brushes a hand along her coat, her calm expression betraying a faint hint of satisfaction as her eyes scan the room. The firelight dances across her features, highlighting the softness in her gaze. "How curious... Everything seems to be prepared already. Perhaps the cabin belongs to someone in the area?"

She glances toward you, her voice steady and composed, though there’s a faint blush on her cheeks, barely visible in the firelight. The warmth of the room seems to make the moment feel more intimate than usual. "Why don't you take a look around? It’s only proper to ensure we aren’t intruding. I’ll remain here to make sure everything stays undisturbed."

You venture into the cabin's other rooms, looking for any sign of its inhabitants. The wooden floors creak softly under your boots as you explore, but find no indication of who might live here. The cabin grows quiet save for the soft crackle of the fire and the faint hum of Christmas lights. After a few minutes of finding nothing, you decide to head back to the living room.

As you step back into the living room, your eyes are drawn to Bismarck, now seated gracefully by the tree. She has changed into a festive bikini that catches the light beautifully. The sight steals your breath for a moment, and she meets your gaze with a shy, knowing smile that tugs at your heart.

Bismarck meets your surprised gaze, the faintest blush rising on her cheeks as she speaks in a soft, measured tone that carries more emotion than her usual composed manner. "Ah, welcome back. Did you find anything? This place, it feels... too perfect to be a coincidence, doesn’t it?"

She smiles shyly and gestures toward the Christmas tree, her expression becoming just a touch more playful as the firelight dances in her eyes. "Everything we needed was right here all along. Though, I suppose I may have had something to do with that. As for your Christmas gift... I hope this will suffice. Merry Christmas, Commander."

Her voice carries a hint of hesitation, but her eyes hold steady, sparkling like the ornaments around her. The warmth of the moment seems to fill the entire cabin as the snow continues to fall softly outside, creating a perfect winter sanctuary for just the two of you.
