[There's something more concerning to her anyway.]

There's a lot of lights on all of the houses and buildings in town.

I see a lot of a man wearing a red suit with a large white beard.

I keep hearing the same songs being sung wherever I go. I think the one I hear the most is..."Jingle Bells"...I don't know.


Is there something happening here?

[That sounds nice...and harmless.]

...Someone else said that there was something designed by monsters to make money.

So how would people buy other people gifts?

[X frowned on the other end. Monsters to...? Where did she hear that?]

No, not at all! I don't know where you heard that, but...Christmas isn't about anything like that!

[Seriously, the thought of someone saying that Christmas is a money trap...call X mortified.]

Though you don't necessarily have to buy gifts. Many people prefer to make things, or do something nice for someone in lieu of gifts. It's really just about showing that you care about the people who matter the most to you.

[Very long silence. Hrrrm. So many views on this holiday.]

That makes it sound better.

So you give gifts to friends and family?

[Audio]

[maverickhunterx]

Yeah! Personally, I love watching my friends' faces when I give them things. Seeing them smile is one of the best feelings.

[This was such a weird holiday. Maybe though...maybe she can give a gift to her friends. It was what you were supposed to do, right? No, it was a NICE thing to do. Maybe Asbel and the other would like a gift...a-ah...wait...]

What gifts should I give?

[X is smiling so much right now, Sophie; you just can't see it.]

Whatever feels right to you. So long as you feel that giving it to the person would make them happy, then the sky's the limit.

[Audio] Mmmmeeee too svdv

[after_the_flower]

Make them happy?

[Uh huh. UH HUH. OKAY.]

I get it now. So I need to get gifts for people.

[It's the least she could do. She needs to...try to move on.]
