[Backdated to Christmas Day. X wouldn't forget the date, even if Mun was a RL forgetful braindead slacker sort. A-also, the post may be a bit lamer than usual. Brain's fightin' me here.]Hey, everyone! Merry Christmas
( Read more... )
Yeah, I guess I was. It was pretty naive to think I could do it when I didn't even know what sort of gifts they'd like. Maybe I'll do better next year.
You'e right, exactly. A friend of mine said that if the gift is an obligation, it's not really a gift anymore. The point is to give because you want to.
Speaking of that, is there anything you would like, Klarth?
Yeah, at first. It sounded like a good idea at the time, but...in hindsight, I'm not sure I was thinking realistically. Maybe next year, when I know people a little bit better.
Well, it is a kind thought... I only gave gifts to a few people, myself. Six months on this island, and... aha, I still don't know a lot of people here.
Excellent! I'll postpone my trip to the memorial until after we've exchanged gifts!

[No worries there; just wanted to know what was best. If here works fine, we'll do it here. =3]
[Time compression is a go! X makes good time on the way to the library; mere minutes after the above response, the library doors open and he strides in, not even slightly winded for the trouble. Under one arm, he carries a small green-wrapped box, adorned with simple but pretty red bow. Is our librarian within sight?]

Such a generous heart reflects poorly on the rest of us Christmas scrooges.

Even if it's just a few people, it's still in the spirit of Christmas as long as it's from the heart. I'd guess it's just as good as many more.
Oh? How come?

[OOCness: RP the gift exchange here, or is there a better option? I first thought to do it in Yomiko's next journal post.]
