You bundle yourself with warm clothes, get a cake, eat it with someone important on the night of the celebration, and everyone else you care about gets gifts from you. Sometimes they're left under trees like that one.

[Look! A Christmas evergreen tree]

[fightolive]

That's such a tall tree... Should we go look underneath it?

[ziosar]

If you're that eager to see if there's a gift for you, then fine. I'll go with you.

[Akihiko hasn't checked because he doesn't really want gifts, but he won't say no to Firefly proposing to go over there. Let's go!]

[fightolive]

It'll be fun. [She'll make her way over to the tree. In the cold, she's slower than usual.

Going through the presents...]

It looks like they're all labeled.

[ziosar]

Any hints of what's inside the gifts?

[fightolive]

Not from just picking them up.

[She doesn't feel rude enough to open anything not labeled for her

But she will hand Akihiko his gift. ]

[ziosar]

[Okay, let him take it]

It's the moment of truth, I guess.

[Akihiko opens it, and finds a mug inside. How...heavenly and encouraging of bonding]

...are we sure this was for me?

[He's neither Amber nor Barbara. Nobody is]

[fightolive]

Who are Amber and Barbara?

[Squints.]

[ziosar]

I support the spirit of the mug's message, but the names are ruining it.

[He prooooobably will regift it. To who, he doesn't know yet, but he will]

[fightolive]

At least it's partially right. Maybe it was mislabeled... [How else could this happen?]
