[There's a prim Quincy in a white and blue yukata. Uryuu's living room in the background, showing a small, fake tree in the corner with a few gifts - some wrapped, some unwrapped - underneath]Happy holidays to everybody who's celebrating today. ...And thank you to Minako and Zexion-san. I appreciate the gifts

Ah - you did not have to give me a gift, as you well know.

[voice]

[sequincy]

I didn't think the holiday was about necessity.

[voice]

[mentis_reae]

No, of course it is not. Nevertheless.

[voice]

[sequincy]

Nevertheless, I hope your issue wasn't with disliking the gift.

[voice]

[mentis_reae]

Well, ah...I fail to see how I could, being as it was precisely what I asked for.

[voice]

[sequincy]

[well where's his "thank you"? :|]

True.

[voice]

[mentis_reae]

[He pauses, and then, awkwardly but all the more genuine for its awkwardness:]

It's...Thank you for - giving me a gift.

[voice]

[sequincy]

You're welcome.

I'll see you for the fitting.

[voice]

[mentis_reae]

What would you prefer in return?

[voice]

[sequincy]

Nothing.

[voice]

[mentis_reae]

Don't be absurd.

[voice]

[sequincy]

I'm not.

[voice]

[mentis_reae]

It's - One is obligated to reciprocate gifts.

Re: [voice]

[sequincy]

No, one is not. I never intended to be an obligation.

[voice]

[mentis_reae]

[A slight pause, and then slightly more quietly:]

That's not what I'm trying to say. I merely - I do not wish to have ill manners towards you.

[voice]

[sequincy]

It's fine. I just wanted to give you something. [almost tersely - stop arguing with him, Edgeworth >U]
