[Thankfully that excited cry causes Hikaru to notice Noel coming in her direction, enough to move out of her.]

It's good to see someone in a good mood! Isn't it great?!

[unsureazure]

[Yeah, thank goodness. Noel stops in her tracks to give the girl a smile and a nod.]

Mm-hmm! I love Christmas!

[knight_in_red]

It shows! It really is a great time of year! Everyone can't help but be happy.

[Noticing all her bags. She must have done a tone of shopping.]

Do you need help with those?

[unsureazure]

[Oh, you have no idea. And this is just the tip of the iceberg. Noel gives a small sheepish laugh at her offer.]

N-No, I'm fine... I don't want to be a bother. Besides, they're not really that heavy...

[Though having her like this means she'll run into more people...]

[knight_in_red]

[Hikaru smiles brightly.]

...It wouldn't be a bother, but if you can handle it, then I wouldn't stop you. But I wish you luck on your shopping.

[unsureazure]

[Noel shakes her head with a small smile.]

Well, if you really want to help, then I don't mind. I-It would be nice to have someone to talk to on the way home...

[knight_in_red]

Really? [ Hikaru smiled, happy that Noel was allowing her to help. And maybe they could become friends too.] I would really like to help you. And hopefully, I can be entertaining!

My name is Hikaru Shidou, it's nice to meet you.

[unsureazure]

[Noel couldn't help but give a sheepish laugh. Really, this girl's cheerfulness is contagious.]

Nice to meet you too. I-I'm Noel Vermillion... I live in the first district, so I hope that isn't too far of a walk for you.

[knight_in_red]

Noel Vermillion? That's an interesting name. Your name even sounds like Christmas. [ Hikaru smiled up at Noel. She was so cooed up in her room while sick, she couldn't wait to get out and meet new people. She couldn't help but be cheerful.]

And that's not too far for me. I may be small, but I'm really strong. [ Hikaru holds her hands out to take any bag that Noel will offer her.]

[unsureazure]

Ah, really?

[Noel's pretty short compared to other girls her age back home, but it's pretty apparent that she has very good upper-body strength, so she knows the feeling. Still, she ends up surrendering the lighter parts of her load to Hikari, due to not wanting others to be overburdened.]

Aha... Actually, I was named 'Noel' because my parents found me on Christmas.

[knight_in_red]

[Hikaru accepts the bag graciously, glad to be of some help to Noel, even if she had an underlying feeling that she was burdening the blonde with this.

Her eyes brighten up hearing how Noel was name.]

Really? That sounds like a Christmas Miracle!
