Where-upon a clown goes "christmas shopping" [open]
Christmastime. Duela knew it as a time of warmth and good cheer. Surprising for a young girl whose life had been spent wrapped up in delusions of being a criminal.
Nevertheless, she had an idea of what Christmas was about, but... like all things with Duela, she didn't really understand it. That was why she was out there tonight, in the commercial district, dressed in her clown suit with her face pressed against the glass of a Hallmark's. They had ornaments! Terra would probably like those, and she could pick out one for Lightning too, if she could find a way to leave it for him without his knowing about it...
Smiling, she popped her claws out of her sleeves, and cut the glass of the front window - one of the things she was good at, and pretty much her only way of entering a place with any amount of subtlety. However, she didn't quite do it right, and the portion she cut fell inward, and made a rather loud crash as it shattered.
Duela nearly jumped, and looked everywhich way, hoping there was no one nearby that had heard her.
