[Roxas pops up on the network, a green and yellow scarf around his neck with his Dedenne peeking out of his coat. Neither will complain about the cold. This is a first for both of them. The backdrop is clearly Ecruteak.]

So when's it supposed to start snowing again? Does anyone know?

[Vivi squeaks the same question. He wants to play in more snow!]

Oh yeah... do they have a Pokémon Santa here? It's Christmas this month, and I've never seen a Santa before other than the weird ones that are ringing bells. And if it's a person instead, isn't Santa supposed to ride around on a sled pulled by reindeer? Stantler are like reindeer, so I guess he'd have those here... how does he deliver all those presents in one night? Is there more than one Santa?

[These are pressing questions, people. Please enlighten the blond and his tiny squeak.]

Whenever it bloody feels like it. (Someone is in a bad mood, sorry Roxas.) Who's Santa?

[seasaltkey]

[Whoa.] R-Right...

[He'll explain it without trying to make Fang angrier?]

Santa is a magical guy who brings presents to nice people who haven't done any naughty things all year. The naughty ones get coal. Or that's what a book said. He's the reason we have Christmas.

[No, it's not. But that's beside the point.]

[baremyfangs]

(She's sad, angry and nursing a hangover. Don't take it personally, Roxas.)

He's never visited me. Maybe all I'm good for is the coal.

[seasaltkey]

I don't think all worlds have Christmas and Santa. But this place does. You can celebrate it, too.

[Here's a fun thing!]

What people do here is buy presents for their friends and family! I'm getting things for my friends. I'm a breeder, so a few friends of mine are getting eggs as presents. Why don't you buy your friends presents? You'll probably get some, too.

[baremyfangs]

...friends and family huh? (Well she's all out of family.) I don't see why anyone would bother.

(She sighs and rubs her forehead.)

I've been cut off from everyone before. This just...

It sucks. (She knows she's not completely alone, but it's definitely bugging her more than usual.)

[seasaltkey]

... I didn't have family or real friends before coming here. Now I have a new family, and a ton of friends. I celebrate because I want to let them know that I'm happy by giving them presents! Even if you only have one friend... don't you want to show them you're happy that they're here with you?

[At least this is how this innocent little kid sees it.]

[baremyfangs]

... (Oh right in the feels.) Yeah. She deserves that much.

(More, actually.)

I don't do well on my own. I guess it's a weakness.

[seasaltkey]

I don't think so. No one's supposed to be on their own. Not if they want to be happy.

[Does that help?]
