'Twas the night before Christmas...

[sleepybuster]

WHO: All Secret Santa participants! And anyone else who wants to stop by
WHAT: Gift-giving and general Christmas festivities hurrah
WHEN: Evening of the 24th
WHERE: Boys' dorm lobby
WARNINGS: excessive holiday cheer
SUMMARY: The lobby of the boys' dorms has been decorated top-to-bottom with holiday decorations! Lights, a tree, you name it. Though at the beginning of the night, the tree actually has no ornaments! But there's a box full of them sitting beside it for any and all characters to help decorate it. Likewise, there's a growing pile of gift boxes beneath the tree with everyone's Secret Santa gifts. For any characters who did not participate in the event but do want to join in on the festivities, they may do so! And if they have any gifts, those may go under the tree along with everyone else's.

There's also a long table nearby with loads of various foods, ranging from cookies to cakes or even sandwiches and soups. Hot chocolate too, of course! Besides the usual couches and chairs in the lobby, there really aren't any additional chairs. But the floor is clean. Sitting on the floor isn't a big deal, you know...!

For reference, the Secret Santa list is here and there is a thread below for stating what gifts characters got one another. Feel free to join in with non-Secret Santa participants, but be sure to note in your comment that the gift is not of that variety. It is up to characters as to whether or not they want to reveal themselves as people's gift givers. If a character has decided not to give their assigned person a gift, make sure to either PM me at sleepybuster or poke me on plurk (peachdango), because Riki will be supplying those people with gifts himself!

And now, have fun, and happy holidays, everyone!

For Celica

[makochansan]

[There's a box with Celica's name on it, wrapped neatly in blue, snowman-covered wrapping paper. Inside the box, hidden beneath all the colorful tissue paper, is a doll, and a card with a simple message:

"Merry Christmas, Celica-san! I hope you enjoy yourself today. （　´∀｀）☆ Please have a nice holiday and stay safe!"

The card is unsigned, of course, because it's a secret!☆]

[Awww, how cute! Celica is beaming as soon as she opens the gift. Though she has absolutely no clue who gave it to her, so... With the doll in hand, she scans the room in hopes of finding whoever got her it. It may be a Secret Santa thing, but... she's awfully curious, okay!]

[makochansan]

[Gosh, he probably shouldn't—if he approaches her, he might give himself away—but he did want to get to know the person he'd gotten a gift for. She seems so happy, too, and Makoto kind of can't resist. So, while Celica searches the room, Makoto goes to grab some cookies from the table and bring them over. He holds out the plate in offering, smiling a friendly smile as he asks:]

Is that your Secret Santa present?

[He might give himself away, but it couldn't hurt to try and be inconspicuous!]

[suckswithmaps]

[Fortunately for Makoto, Celica doesn't think it's him yet...! After all, she's never spoken to him before anyway, so it's hard to see through someone new. Regardless though, she smiles and takes one of the cookies off the plate.]

Thank you very much! [And then after taking a bite from it, she looks down at the doll, and then back up to Makoto as she nods.] But ah... Yes, it seems like it! It's really cute, isn't it?
