Who: Nicholas D. Wolfwood and YOU
What: Saint Nick is coming to town and he's bringing you a present whether you like it or not-
When: It's CHRISTMAS TIME BAYBEE
Where: Wherever your character is you cannot escape
Warnings: Wolfwood's big mouth otherwise N/A, will mark in individual threads if needed!
[You know...it's been a year since he's done this. A year since he showed up. And, to be honest, Wolfwood didn't think he'd be here long enough to be conscripted to do it again.

...Hell, he didn't think he'd be ASKED to do this again. It's not like he makes a very cheerful Saint Nick.

But! He is here!! Wolfwood has actually been up early (which his partners will have noticed, they will have found him just entirely missing that morning no matter how early they woke), first taking a pitstop at Ydalir's to grab up his sack of presents. There are so many more this year than the last, and it's a good thing he has Moder as his steed to help him carry them on her back. He's dressed the part, with a heavy hat that looks kindof silly since he doesn't usually wear them, and a pair of snowboots to match. Last year he was missing the beard, but this year he's actually grown his facial hair out longer than usual. Not a full-on beard, but just on the edge, to the point where it's definitely noticeable. One thing he has this year that he didn't last year is his trusty companion Angelina, who is running through the snow like :D??!!! EXCITED, so you will get to greet her when you receive your gift (if you do not like dogs she will be omitted from the equation, Wolfwood will have her stay outside, she's a very good girl who can be patient and wait with Moder if needed).

You'd better watch out.]

...Eh?

( what. is. is it christmas? who did this?? mafuyu accepts the box dumbfounded for a moment. )

Um. Thank you? I'm sorry, I wasn't expecting anything like this-

[lupusxylem]

[Girl it is LITERALLY Christmas.]

You and a buncha others, apparently. You never gotten a present on Christmas before?

[beathollow]

I... um. ...Mom... always told me to decline them... or she'd just get "clean them up".

[lupusxylem]

...what?

[Sorry- actually no he's not sorry, what.]

Your Mom said that. Like if ya'll don't celebrate that's fine, whatever. But if somebody gave you somethin' she'd tell you to not take it? No matter what?

[beathollow]

... If it was study materials, I could keep it. But if you're a teenager, you aren't going to think of study materials as a gift idea, are you? Anything that could distract from her goal of me becoming a doctor was... useless. So she would say to decline it, or she would throw it away while I was gone. She's been doing this for a very long time. It's only recently that I realized how awful this is.

[Why are so many peoples' parents here abusive-]

Yeah that's kindof fucked up. I'm glad you've realized that now.

Everyone deserves gifts. I dunno what yours has in it, but I can guarantee it prolly aint study materials. It's gonna be somethin' you really wanted, but could never have.

[beathollow]

... I've had... a lot of revelations about her.

( ...

something about his words seem... warm. and light, despite the weight he speaks with.


...

she will open the present. )

[Inside the box...it is not, in fact, study materials. No, it's the softest rabbit plushie you've ever seen. Perfect for holding close and cuddling. Underneath the plushie is a little box of rabbit shaped mochi.]

Well well. Would'ya look at that.
