Shadow: Nice.
Ash: How are the hands?


Shadow: The skin gloves fit great. They look just like my old hands. When's the party starting?
Ash: In another hour or so.


Shadow: You know, I just keep finding myself in your bedroom lately...


Ash: Uh-huh. That's where the clothes are. Let's go check on the rest of the arrangements...

Elsewhere:



Eric: Wow, that was fast.


Himemiya: Yeah, well I didn't have anything else better to do.


Eric: I'm happy you decided to come! I think you'll like it, I planned the menu just for you.
Himemiya: Really?

 

 



Shadow: Wow. That's a lot of sweets.
Ash: ...yes. Yes it is.


Ash: This is specifically the reason I had Eric take care of the catering and not Valentine.


Shadow: Is anyone who is coming diabetic?
Ash: I hope not.



Commentary:
I was planning the food for this party and realized that I didn't have much in the way of 'party' doll food. Oh, there's a bowl of nachos and chips on the kitchen counter, but for buffet type food? Nothing. Sweets though, I have plenty of, and after a moment's reflection I figured that would probably suit most of my dolls just fine.

The title of this chapter is sort of a play on the different uses of 'Catering' (to design/alter something to suit, and to bring food). Who the 'one' is should be pretty obvious.
