[ Kyon has nothing else to do, so indeed, he turns on the feed and it clicks on to video almost immediately, his voice clear and obviously bored. ]

Christmas is coming up. And so is that day. ... Not that anyone cares what 'that day' entails, considering the fact that you guys aren't from back home. I talked about this

Ah--have you decided to try to organize one, Kyon-san?

[needsnarration]

Yeah. Usually the person who does this would be completely enthusiastic about it, and even already start decorating everywhere. But she's not here, so I guess I have to do it.

[miraclekakera]

Were they a good friend of yours from your world?

If you don't mind, I'd like to assist you in preparations. A Christmas Party may be what we need here for the season.

[needsnarration]

I wouldn't call her a friend. ['She's more like a subordinate leader, if anything.']

And sure, that's fine by me.

[miraclekakera]

Really? A classmate, maybe?

I'll look forward to organizing this with you. I'll do what I can.

[needsnarration]

That's right.

And thanks. We'll have to figure out a few things first. Like where to hold the party.

[miraclekakera]

Perhaps somewhere like the Town Hall might be best. That way, it may be a large enough area for everyone.

[needsnarration]

['Well, I don't keep count of how many people there are here, but it's definitely not as big as Tokyo. But I guess it'd be fine to have a large area, especially for people like me, who'll probably just end up not doing anything at the party to just walk around.']

The Town Hall would be fine by me. I don't know who exactly is coming, but I guess it's better to have an area that's large enough to fit anyone than a cramped up space.

[miraclekakera]

Precisely. It's better to be safe than sorry.

[needsnarration]

That's right. I don't think I want to die anytime soon. ['Especially not by fae, of all things.']

[miraclekakera]

... Yes. That's true. Sometimes it is rather difficult to always feel safe here. Especially with those Fae running about...

[needsnarration]

Sometimes I'd rather not think about them. [It aggravates him, really, to think that he's unprotected.]

[miraclekakera]

I can't say I blame you... It's much more easier to feel at home without them in mind.

[needsnarration]

I think almost everyone feels the same way, if you ask me.

[miraclekakera]

You might be surprised. There are those here who welcome things like the Fae.

[needsnarration]

Well, I haven't seen one of those people yet, unfortunately.
