Ehh, what's this?

[tearing the packaging open |D]

A swan...?

[samsera]

Um... a guy was carving things a long time ago and I thought of you. I guess I just held on to it...

[machiavelliyaan]

It's very pretty. Why a swan?

[samsera]

Because... they're proud, and fierce, and protective.

[machiavelliyaan]

A-aww, Sera! Jeez, I -- [HUG.]

[samsera]

*HUGS BACK* Y-you like it?

[machiavelliyaan]

I like it a lot! That's real thoughtful of you. I'm not sure what to do with it, but I'll put it beside my bed or something!

I got a gift for you too! But it's not, you know, symbolic and sweet like this or anything...

[samsera]

It wasn't... it just made me think of you, that's all! You didn't have to get me anything.

[machiavelliyaan]

No shit. You don't get Christmas presents for people 'cause you have to, right?

[unslinging her backpack and digging around in it]

[samsera]

...right. *waits, then*

[machiavelliyaan]

Here!

[hands her a wrapped copy of er, well, this]

[samsera]

...

*starts laughing kind of helplessly*

[machiavelliyaan]

I thought you could use it for Serph and stuff!

I read it before passing it on, though, hope you don't mind.

[samsera]

No, I don't mind - it's perfect. Thank you. *still laughiiing oh my gosh Saku*

[machiavelliyaan]

Always glad to help, you know that!

[samsera]

*solemnly* It'll be very helpful.
