Test of Hope AU in which there is no freaky alpaca and everyone survives to their senior year of high school and these four end up as bffs
aka Teruo didn't want to take the picture and definitely did not want to wear the antlers so yuriko was like "the fuck you're not gonna take the picture" and threatens him in like seven different languages until he finally relents because she won't stop slamming the doors to their dorm rooms on the condition that she has to look twice as ridiculous as him to draw attention away from his antlers
yuriko took "ridiculous" to mean "hot" and decided she could live with that and enlisted chie to be in the christmas crew
chie was like "fine but i'm not wearing whatever it is that you're wearing" and it's actually really cold at their school so she's freezing her ass off. oh the things we do for love.
kuroda was tricked into being in the picture so he's not dressed up at all
not shown: yuriko's mistletoe earrings that she keeps tricking teruo with. like she'll stand on the landing of the stairs and wait for teruo to walk by and when he does she'll laugh maniacally and demand that he kiss her and he just shouts up "technically you AREN'T under the mistletoe" and she'll just sneak down the stairs while he waits sighing really melodramatically and punches him hard on the shoulder before kissing him and this happens like nine times
