'Twas the night before Christmas...

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 [personal profile] sleepybuster or poke me on plurk ([plurk.com profile] peachdango), because Riki will be supplying those people with gifts himself!

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

MADOKA TO KOTAROU

[ There's a box waiting for Kotarou as well! On it is a note: ]

Dear Kotarou-san,

Please have a merry Christmas and a wonderful new year. Santa-san is really glad for what you've done for everyone this past year, so please keep up the good work. He also hopes you enjoy your present and will take good care of it.


[ She's not too great at this whole "pretending to be Santa" thing as you can see. But either way, inside the gift is a very non-ferocious dinosaur plushie and a bag of sweets. ]

[While it was indeed Secret Santa, he never did expect any gifts. So, when he eyeballed one in his name, it was kinda surprising and heartwarming to see. He smiles a bit, reading the card.

Yeah she wasn't all that great with pretending, was she.
]

Not like I did anything, really... [Hohoho. The box was pretty pink, and only reminded him of one person. She does seem like the type to try and pretend to be Santa Claus. Horribly. When he opens it though, the gift reminded him of a smaller version of a familiar he encountered once. It was small plush of a dinosaur that could fit in his hand, along with a bag of sweets. There was only one thing to do in this sort of picture.]

Raaaaawr.

[He attacks the bag with the dinosaur.]

[ It doesn't help that Madoka is (very, very unsubtly, mind you) watching him as he's opening the gift. She hopes he's happy with it at least, after all, she'd hate to mess up a Secret Santa and especially for someone she knows on top of it.. but then he grabs what's in it and starts.. playing with it instantly..? Does that mean he likes it or--

Wait, he's making it attack the candy? ]


E-eh?

[ ...

Oh, whoops. Madoka at least does realise she just obviously makes a sound and quickly clasps a hand in front of her mouth. So subtle. So very subtle. ]
conversationalist: (Right.)

[personal profile] conversationalist 2013-12-28 08:13 pm (UTC)(link)
[Kotarou catches her sound, but doesn't bother to take a look. He merely chuckles; she would be watching wouldn't she.]

Come over here, Mrs. Claus.
happyends: (songs of praise all very well)

[personal profile] happyends 2013-12-28 09:44 pm (UTC)(link)
[ She looks around - maybe he could be refering to some other people! Someone else! But then Madoka notices there really is nobody close around, so she knows he's talking about her and slowly nods and steps over.. ]

E.. ehehe.. was I that obvious..?
conversationalist: (It's fine totally cool!)

[personal profile] conversationalist 2013-12-28 10:33 pm (UTC)(link)
I don't think you could've been more obvious. [Rawr, he uses his plush and attacks her face. Lightly.]

[personal profile] happyends 2013-12-30 07:40 pm (UTC)(link)
Wah! [ There's still a sound of surprise. Granted, it's a small one since he's only doing it lightly, but she just didn't see it coming.. it makes her giggle a little bit though. ]

Please go easy on me, dino-san...
conversationalist: (Think you can let me off the hook?)

[personal profile] conversationalist 2014-01-12 04:34 am (UTC)(link)
[He smiles, placing his gift down to give Madoka his attention.]

If things weren't the way they were, I probably would've gotten you something too. I like the gifts.

Ah, it's okay! You don't have to do that much, Kotarou-san.. I'm already glad enough to be able to spend Christmas with everyone else. It's more than I could've expected out of the afterlife, I suppose.

[ Another tiny giggle, but her smile is rather warm. Sure, she misses her friends from back home, and she doesn't know why they aren't here aside from Homura even if they're dead too, but she'll take whatever she can get. ]
