Christmas, hmm?  A festive time of celebration marked by the transference of gifts and well wishes.  All very nice and good.

But it appears that in the general chaos that seems to be the normal state of affairs around here, everyone has forgotten to give me my proper due.  No matter.  I'm not one of those stringy prepubescent onryou; I don't hold

But I was giving out presents to just about everyone! You also! Didn't I give it to you?

[slapwithpanache]

Erm.

[Come to think of it, the green-haired girl looked vaguely familiar.]

. . . Possibly.

[youkai_hunting]

It's right there!

[She points to a parasol that was lying there. It's a miracle!...wait a minute...]

[slapwithpanache]

Erm.

[Bluff! Bow makes an excellent recovery and swoops over to elegantly twirl the parasol behind her.]

But of course! I knew the announcement would leave you confused; it was merely a ploy to thank you in person. What a lovely design. It quite matches my color scheme. I am grateful, Miss . . . erm. Sunny. Sandy. Sauna?

Sanae.

[She continues seamlessly.]

Miss Sanae, and I do believe it is very much in order for me to bestow good wishes upon your kind self in reciprocation. A sincerely merry Christmas to you, too.

[Really, she thought she'd managed it quite well.]

[youkai_hunting]

Thank you!

[slapwithpanache]

You are welcome.

[The umbrella was more the princess's thing, really. Another item for the ol' hammerspace.]
