[At first you can't see anything because the communicator is bouncing, but you can certainly hear a wonderfully disturbing assortment of crashes and thumps. When the camera steadies, you can see a coat tree lying on its side with a paper star on the ground next to it. It's a ratty old thing, still capable of standing but you wouldn't want to put

[...] Are you okay?

[crippledroyalty]

Yes, thank you! I'm sorry for worrying everyone...

[angelic_lawyer]

Mm, that's good to know.

[crippledroyalty]

Don't worry, I'll let someone else put the star on next time...

[angelic_lawyer]

As long as you take care.

[crippledroyalty]

Are you doing anything for Christmas?

[angelic_lawyer]

Ah, I'm not really sure. I probably won't be doing too much.

[crippledroyalty]

Don't say that too loudly...Euphy might hear you!

[Obviously teasing, but the possibility of being dragged around by energetic people is very real.]

[angelic_lawyer]

Ah, she might? Thank you for the warning. I'll be more careful.

[crippledroyalty]

[Giggles.]

Even if it isn't big, I hope you can do something fun.

[angelic_lawyer]

I'm sure it won't be a disappointment.

Will you be doing anything?

[crippledroyalty]

I don't know what we're doing, but I'm sure we're doing something. So I was trying to make the coat tree a Christmas tree since there probably isn't anything better...

[angelic_lawyer]

'Something' is better than nothing; I'm sure it will be nice. Still, you have a lot of family and friends here, don't you? You can at least spend the time together.

Mm, it's a good thought.

[crippledroyalty]

Mm, that would be more than enough.

Do you have anyone here?

[angelic_lawyer]

Anyone...? From where I'm from?

[crippledroyalty]

Mm.
