Ah, the talk about letters to Santa and everything just reminds me how I used to help Maka write hers when she was little~♥ She'd always ask for picture books and stuff, even before she could really read them. Always smart, practical things, and it was so weird to me, 'cause when I was her age, I was just asking for toy cars and candy.

She and her mama made the cutest cookies, too! In all kinds of shapes with frosting and sprinkles~~~ They'd always set out the cookies and milk with a little note to Santa right before she went to bed~~~♥

U-until after that year I got distracted by that girl in the elf costume at the store and maybe drank a little too much egg nog with her and forgot to put out the presents and eat the cookies when I got home and Maka thought Santa had hated her cookies and I had to make up some story about him leaving the presents in the wrong room and my wife made me sleep on the couch for a month and why the hell am I talking about this in public


...Honestly, the whole holiday season's a little tougher than I thought it'd be, even if this place isn't exactly bursting with festive music and decorations as reminders.

Speaking of the few decorations there are, though, why are there never any women around when I'm near any mistletoe here? I spent like, forty minutes standing under it yesterday and waiting for someone to come by, but only men ever showed up so I just had to keep running and hiding behind things.


Well. So long as it's better than our last Christmas though, right? Jeez, I know the timing's weird here, but it's still hard to believe so much time has passed already.

Last Christmas?

Yeah, for everyone here who came from the same place as me, I mean. A group of witches released the demon god into the world at a Christmas party, and-- ...Okay, that sounds a lot dumber and less serious than it really is when I try to explain it.

The same place as you? So everyone here is from another world in that case. Though the situation you've described it sounds rather dangerous. It's not that dumb, just sounds like something from a T.V show I used to watch when I was younger.

...That's awful.

One would think you'd have enough decency to at least not screw up on Christmas.

Accident, RIIIIIGHT.

Of course not.

Though I am mildly envious.

I've never written letters to Santa before. Normally, Father just asked what I wanted and had presents waiting.

Oh, that's-- Y-yeah, I guess it would be a little different at your home, wouldn't it?

[[ooc: haha yes i did! ;;]]

Probably. I don't think Father believes in Santa. His concept sounds rather fishy anyhow.

Spirit, do you...

I mean... Would it be all right if you could... help me write a letter like that too?

W-well, it's been a little while since I've written one, but sure!

Thank you. It's just that... I'm not really sure what to ask for. That's all.

But Mr. Touchdown said that he would help me send in my letter, and... He was so nice about it before. I wouldn't want to let him or Demyx down.

Well, what kind of things do you like? You could ask for some new clothes, your favorite food, some books, stuff for drawing if you're into that.

And hell, in a place like this, basics are always good too even if they aren't too fun, right? Shampoo, that kind of thing.

I... guess I could ask for some more books to read. I always like it when Haine brings some back for me to look at, even if it is kind of hard to understand everything without Soren to help me every now and again. Some new dresses too. Ones that my wings can fit through easier.

Um... Can you ask for him to bring a present for someone else for Christmas too? Or is that kind of strange...?

See, there you go!

And sure, I don't see why not. It probably doesn't even have to be a real present, either, you could ask for happiness and safety for a friend, too.

Say, I'll make one up too and we can both ask that for Chrona, yeah? Might not be as easy a wish to grant as a tube of toothpaste, but it's worth asking, right?

Hee. If I had known what a help this would be, I probably would have talked this out a lot sooner!

Really? You can? I'm so glad! That's something that I was actually counting on.

Right!
