[nullorvoid]

Hey. You busy with anything?

[invigorating]

Hey Ginti! Nope, I'm not busy right now, what's up?

[nullorvoid]

Good.

I actually decided to take the damn night off for once. Holiday and everything. We don't do Christmas where I'm from but I know enough to get the idea.

[invigorating]

Ahh, that's great! I was hoping you'd be free! I... kinda forgot what day Christmas was, oops. But I definitely want to spent it with you!

We don't have Christmas either, so it'll be my first! And I definitely want to spend it with you, Ginti!

[nullorvoid]

All right, all right, calm down - I'm not going anywhere for the next couple days, so it's not like you're not going to get the chance.

[invigorating]

Well, I definitely appreciate it! Taking time off of work just to spend with me... man, you really are a pretty great guy, huh?

--Oh! Are we supposed to get a tree or something? Gosh, there's so much to this holiday... But! I remembered to get you a present! Don't worry, it's great, I promise!

[nullorvoid]

[OH MY GOD.]

...Uh.

[...eloquent, ginti.]

Look, you don't - ...We are not bringing a tree inside.

1 / 2

[invigorating]

Well what the heck am I supposed to do with this tree I just cut down?

2 / 2

[invigorating]

...Just kidding!

[oh my god nowi]

[nullorvoid]

You'd better be.

[OH MY GOD]

And you didn't have to get me anything either, but that's. Nice. I guess.

[invigorating]

It's Christmas, silly! You're supposed to give gifts to people you like! I got gifts for some other people too! But I had to find the perfect thing for you! So you'd better appreciate it!

[nullorvoid]

Yeah, yeah, I got you something you too, okay.

Don't make a huge thing out of it.

[invigorating]

[too late]

Oh boy! What is it? Oh gosh, did you get me one of those stuffed Pokémon I've been talking about? Oooh, or another dragon? Oh, or what about--

[...you can practically hear the sparkle eyes.]

[nullorvoid]

I'm going to end up giving you stuff tonight, aren't I.

[It's barely even a question at this point.]

[invigorating]

Well what the heck is Christmas for unless you're giving people stuff? Don't keep me waiting!!

[nullorvoid]

All right, fine, I'll be there in a bit, okay? Don't get too excited, it's nothing spectacular.

[invigorating]

It's a gift from you, so of course it's gonna be spectacular!

But I'll wait, alright? Oh, don't expect much with the wrapping job. There was uh... some problems...

[nullorvoid]

...If you think I wrapped anything, you're going to be disappointed.

[invigorating]

But Gintiiiiiii... Isn't the point to rip off the wrapping paper and throw it everywhere?

[who taught this girl about christmas]

[nullorvoid]

No.

[HE HAS LIKE TEN PEOPLE'S VAGUE MEMORIES ABOUT THIS STUPID HOLIDAY AND NONE OF THEM ARE INFORMATIVE ON THIS MATTER]

[invigorating]

Well that's dumb.

[nowi no]

But I'll be here, don't worry! And I cleaned up most of the mess!

[nullorvoid]

"Most of" - what did you do.

[...]

I'll be a few minutes, I'm sure I'll see it when I get there.

[nowi what is he walking into]

[invigorating]

[SORRY IN ADVANCE, GINTI...

Nowi's right though, she did clean up most of the mess. There's still wrapping paper shoved in a corner of the hotel room and uh. Well. It looks like someone went to town on the ribbon. There are those pre-made bows stuck all over the room like this is somehow considered decorating, but the curly ribbon is just sort of... everywhere. Nowi's got some in her hair even, but she looks pleased enough. Thankfully whatever mess she made with the wrapping paper has been cleaned up, though that sure is a lot of wrapping paper in the corner of the room.

And sitting proudly on Ginti's bed are uh... well. Two packages. They're badly wrapped. How do you even screw up wrapping that badly. There's so much tape and like five more bows stuck on there than there really need to be. But Nowi certainly looks proud of herself.]

[nullorvoid]

[...The question of the hour doesn't seem to be "how do you screw up wrapping that badly", it's apparently "...how many times did you screw up the wrapping before this latest kind of successful attempt" - but you know what, just. It's. A holiday. Let's not be a pain in the ass for once.

...The ribbon's kind of cute maybe.

That said, though, just...let him kind of stare at all that for a moment before he says anything, because - ]

...Wow.

[Because that's going to happen...]

You didn't go halfway, did you.

[invigorating]

Of course not! This is my first Christmas so it's gotta be extra-special!

[The wrapping attempts were horrendous. Maybe next year she'll be better...... probably not.]

So what did you get me?
