[To be honest... Haruki still isn't 100% better. He's still not cool with Rena yet, not to mention anyone he happened to piss off when he was sulking. But there's stuff to be done; it's Christmas after all. And thus, he coughs before starting this awkwardly with-]
You know, plenty of you folks lack dates for Christmas, don't you? Huh... Well, whatever.
[A pause, and then he continues without abandon to the next part-] Christmas is a vasly inferior holiday to the likes of Tanabata or even Obon, but so long as there is something to celebrate, we might as well roll with it, right?! I mean, I never knew the Christian story behind it in detail, but that makes it so much more interesting. A mystery, even! How could those guys all see starts to lead them to a baby? A virgin that got knocked up? Makes me wish that someone from that time had showed up here at some point... [...A pause, annd then a sigh-] Well, whatever.
More importantly... getting ready for New Years after that. And anything the Organization or John does by way of a "celebration" for Christmas. You guys ever noticed they like American holidays?

Alright SOS-Brigade! This Christmas we're going with something special and more awesome than anything ever seen for any Christmas since the birth of that Jesus guy! We're going to be forming a superior crack-team of super sentai Santas! We're going to be the SOS-S3! And with out might, we're going to spread holiday cheer and more importantly needed positive sentiment around the village.
Our mission will be to provide gifts to people, assist people who look like losers, and set people up on blind-dates. Your first objective will be met by the 20th of December. You will recruit as many people as you can to sign up for a mass blind date. A free gift! What's more, you will do this dressed as a SOS-S3-Santa suit which will be supplied for you in the next three days.
Whoever amasses the most names will be the victor of round one of this competition! Whoever wins the best two out of three rounds will be the Brigade Chief for the week following the first of January! Your roles will be as follows:

Atsuro -> Santa Blue
Uriko -> Santa Yellow
Yoohoo -> Santa Pink
Rika -> Santa Black
Usagi -> Santa Green
Elf Support Team
Rena -> Elf Support Commander
Leon -> Elf Support Sub-Commander
Al -> Elf Support Underling

Everyone Else
Tear -> MIA currently
Hanyuu -> MIA currently
Yuzu -> On Sick Leave
Shinpachi -> On Elderly Leave
Arthur -> On Elderly Leave
Tai -> On Youth Leave
Miu -> On Youth Leave
Are your orders understood, my SOS-S3?!
Now, Elf Support! You will be given the labor of amassing as many potential gifts as you can. You will be hording them in the back room of the SOS-Brigade HQ. Vice-Chief Rena will be given a temporary promotion to Elf Commander Rena, and she will be in charge of this gift hording! You will raid the bazaars, you will make new gifts, and you will even steal if you have to, but I expect that back room filled to brim by the time you get further orders!
Are we clear?!

Shiki, I got an important job for you.
[Also,
relationship post which I don't think I forgot anyone on but it's possible I did. Yerp. Comment if I did. ASIDE FROM THIS someone did offer to join the SOS-Brigade but the thread is still ongoing. If they end up getting recruited I'll be editing them into this post, and feel free to assume they had always been in this post. So... yeah...]
