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!
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.]
[...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 - ]
[Just...let him go through the damn drawers he's claimed as his for a second, okay, damn.
...Well, first of all, you're getting several of those really janky scarves Chihiro's knitting bug makes tossed at you. There are like six of them, and they are in the most noxious color combinations known to man. Gold and green on the same scarf? Why not. Orange and bright screaming magenta? Sure. Is that teal and yellow because wow that's kind of - ...yep. Yep, it is. They're all like that, you're welcome.]
Well, that's part of it, because you make me cold just looking at you half the time.
...Okay, look, you probably don't remember it at all but you asked me in...I don't know. May? What I got from that stupid tree that we were all writing wishes on. You remember that? I got some stuff from home and told you I'd tell you what it was later.
[He's holding another one of those stupid scarves, but this one looks like it's wrapped around something; he shoves it at her like she straight-up demanded it, but that's just. Kind of how it goes.]
I make things like that. A lot. Not of everyone, just certain people.
[...]
...Important people. Don't make a big thing out of it.
[The scarf's purple and bright fucking neon green, but more to the point it's wrapped around one of those wooden kokeshi dolls he makes; this one's painted with light green hair and large eyes, as well as an obvious approximation of a cape and clothes in bright colors and way too many bows.
[Nowi takes the scarf bundle and after taking a moment to admire the colors (perfect combination, by the way) she opens it carefully.
There's a long pause while she just admires the kokeshi doll, eyes wide. She's been listening to Ginti of course, but it takes a moment for everything to sink in.]
...Wow... You made this... You made a cute little doll of me...
[And he only makes ones of important people!!]
Ginti...
[She looks up and dear god the sparkle eyes are pretty ridiculous here.]
This is so sweet, oh gosh I don't have anything this nice for you! I guess I should've had you open yours first, huh...
[...]
This is the nicest gift I've ever gotten! Just look at it! You made me! She's so cute! ...I'm so cute? Well, I am so-- Oh, Ginti, this is the nicest thing ever!
[what was that about not making a big thing out of it]
[She's going to be bright pink for the rest of time, okay. This is so thoughtful...]
But, I guess you should open yours! Just don't expect anything this adorable!
[They're on your bed. One of them is definitely box-shaped while the other is uh... Okay that's just a Pokémon egg with wrapping paper taped on top like this will somehow disguise it. There's one of those bows stuck on top of it too. It doesn't even match the wrapping paper. Nowi, did you even try.]

[Give her a moment to just sort of bury her face in them before trying to get as many on as she possibly can. Oh god, there are so many.]
Oh wow, Ginti these are so great! They're so nice and soft and they're in such great colors...!
[Hideous clashing colors are sort of her thing. The brighter the better, of course.]
Thank you, thank you, thank you!
[Okay, now that she's successfully got three scarves on somehow--]
So what's the other part?
