[The Halloween decor had been cleared out not long after the holiday itself had passed. But Donnie's still making good on his word, and once December rolls around, he's been in and out of the esper's apartment, setting up the more subtler components of his gift. Things don't activate until the evening of the 24th because Donnie anticipates that Accelerator's Christmas plans probably largely consist of sleeping in.
There's no lightning, no creepy laughter, but the lights dim subtly, and along the edges of the ceiling of the main room trace bars of soft grayish-white light, beaming upwards so there's no harsh glare when someone looks up at them. There's other lighting installments around the room, nestled cleverly where they can throw off soft but at the same time jagged shadows reminiscent of Accelerator's favored zig-zag patterning, not everywhere thankfully, but thrown in here and there to break up the monotony.
The regular lighting of course still works and the mood lighting doesn't clash at all, but everything still switches off as needed. Donnie's not trying to annoy Accy here.
...although there is a tub full of fist-sized plushies that somehow look like his favorite coffee can drink.]
Ho Ho Ho
