Video: DON'T blow out all the candles

Who: Lumière and YOU
Broadcast: Fleetwide
Action: Wonderduck
When: December 27th

[Christmas is always something of a bittersweet experience for Lumière. He loves the holiday, yes- but it's also the anniversary of the curse. The fact he has experienced an 11th Christmas stuck in this form is not a comforting one. Were he back home, that would have meant it was permanent.

Still, he's managed to keep his usual upbeat attitude- and then today happened. The video opens to him in the cargo hold of the Wonderduck. A footstool snuffles around him, occasionally letting out an excited yap before bounding off to explore other parts of the hold back end (or what you'd ASSUME is the back end) wagging. See, Sultan was a NICE gift, Atroma. This. This is bullshit.

Lumière is staring at a cake. It's his cake. And, of course, it wouldn't be Atroma if it wasn't mildly offensive. There's also a shitton of candles on it- 42, if you care to count.
]

Oh...wow. Atroma. You....shouldn't have. No. Really. You shouldn't. [He gives the offending cake a prod.] I am not sure if I should offer this to anyone or not. I dread to think what is inside of it and I'd hate to give any of you food poisoning before New Year.

...there was a dog transformed too?

[Completely distracted from the cake. It doesn't look like a dog, but it sure acts like one.]

It doesn't chase cats, does it?

[Give him a second, Lumière... Okay, now he got it.]

Oh, right... he was affected by the curse, too, huh?

[dog!! She might be eyeing it just like a cat would as it bounds off]

How do you say happy birthday in French?

Well, I guess it counts here? Maybe? For people who ain't dead, anyway.

[A beat, then a little guiltily:] Guess we'll have to wait 'til next year then, huh?

That's incredibly rude of them.

Joyeux anniversaire, Lumiere.

They could at least be decent once and a while.

I could try the cake if you want to find out if it's safe or not.

They keep giving our ship pets and I'm liable to feel even more annoyed I'm down one hand and can't pet them all at once....

As for the cake, we could always save it to feed it to our enemies. Seeing as I doubt we'll be free of new ones for long.

[The cake says 'in French' but Victor actually speaks it and so does now. He might be making sure to practice his pronunciation or he might be trying to offer some comfort to Lumiere given how stupid the cake is.]

Is it your birthday, my friend?

It was mine two days ago.

Everything in this feed is extremely normal [wtf?] and I can't come up with a single thing to comment on.
