Axel smiles. "Yeah, I don't mind!"
The two of you head upstairs to your lab as the others start to move about, preparing for the party themselves.
It's just the two of you in the Ultimate Poet's Lab. Axel looks around. "So what are we gonna use...?"

"Hm. We can use some of this scroll paper and regular paper. There's probably some colored sheets around here. I'm not sure exactly what to make..."

"Well Claus must have picked you to do decorations because of your talent, right? Maybe he wants you to use poetry or something...?"

"Hmm." Aki thinks about this mulling it over a bit.
"That's true... I suppose besides some papercutting I could paint some Haikus onto some of these scrolls... you could probably help me with that as well." She smiles at his, handing him a brush and a scroll.

"Alright! I'll do my best!"
As with all things, Axel rushes headlong into the project and makes what looks like...a big inky mess on paper...? He tells you it's supposed to be a dragon made out of kanji, but it doesn't look like kanji or a dragon. Axel's handwriting is super messy...

"Hm. Axel. Come here for a moment." She puts down the paper decorstions and scrolls she was working on.
She takes his hand and helps him steady it when writing. "Here. Nice and slow, okay? We have all day. It's a great idea, you just have to go a little slower." She guides his hand as he writes.

You try to help Axel slow down, but he's still not particularly great. You notice he begins to get frustrated. "Rrgh...Darn it. They were right...I really do suck..."

Aki makes a face. "Hey, don't say that! You're trying your hardest! I've seen way worse handwriting before. It's the thought that counts anyways."
Aki sets down the brush. And takes his hand in hers. "How about we figure out something you can do for the party that noone else can."She gives him a reassuring smile.

"...What can I even do anyway? All I can do is run..."

"Hey, don't say that. Running is amazing. Your talent is great. All I can do is write poems. Here, I'll make the decorations and then you can run them to the dining hall. We're kind of on a schedule, but with your running, we should be able to get them done and have them set up in no time." She smiles at him warmly.

"...Thanks, Aki." Axel seems to feel a bit better now that you've spoken to him.
You've received a Friendship Shard!
The two of you work together to decorate the Dining Hall for the party tonight...

Eventually, the party is fully set up for tonight...
Wow, they did an amazing job setting all this up! There's a mini stage on one end of the Dining Hall with lights shining on it and the smell of delicious food wafts in from the kitchen on the other side. The tables are set up close together with a buffet of food sitting on them. Balloons and streamers decorate the room and many of your poem decorations can be seen hanging around.
Sato excitedly charges through the door and heads directly for the food. "Yes! Foooooood!" He continues to eat it like a savage maniac.
Vicky and Dennis head over to the stage, preparing their acts and making sure everything is in place.
Amelia and Axel immediately take up guard duty, heading to the two exits in the dining hall.
Claus seems to be in the kitchen right now, busy cooking up more dishes for everyone.
Sylvia walks in the door and seems to be holding someone's hand. Erika? Somehow, Sylvia managed to get Erika to come to the party. Even though Sylvia's smiling, Erika looks a little annoyed to be here. You momentarily wonder how she pulled this off.
The others all stand around, deciding what they should do first. It looks like everyone truly did show up here. That's pretty impressive!
What should you do...?

Head for the food in a, er, more polite manner than Sato.

You head over to the table Sato is eating at and gather some food of your own on a plate. As you do so, you notice Dennis finishing up his set up with the fireworks and walk over to you. He begins gathering his own food while Sato wolfs down as much as he can. "So...Nom...Delicious...Nom...!"

You quietly eat next to Sato and Dennis, listening to their conversation.
"It certainly looks good." Dennis piles up a lot of food on his plate. He must be hungry. "We lucked out getting stuck here with the Ultimate Butler, didn't we?"
Sato continues to eat. "Nom Nom...! Claus is good...Nom...!"
