[Katsura's walking back to his apartment when he spies Keroro. The set-up of the cart attracts his attention so he moves to investigate, looking at Keroro quizzically.]

Good morning, Keroro-san. Are you delivering presents?

[kerorogunsou]

Ah, good morning, Katsura-dono! Yes, I am, de arimasu. This one's for you, de arimasu! [He holds out a green package that's very obviously bowl-shaped.[

[novelvision]

Oh! Thank you, Keroro-san. [Katsura takes it carefully but he doesn't unwrap it yet because that's impolite.] I have a present for you too.

[kerorogunsou]

You're very welcome, Katsura-dono!

[And he had totally not been expecting a present. Ah, who am I kidding, yes he was.]

Really? What is it, de arimasu?

[novelvision]

Ha ha. Ah...about that, I asked Santa to deliver it to you along with your wish list.

[kerorogunsou]

You asked Santa? You know Santa, Katsura-dono?

[And more importantly...]

...Wish list, de arimasu? [He...never talked to you about any wish list.]

[novelvision]

[Sudden stop-motion freeze!]

Ah!? I just thought that you would have had a wish list, Keroro-san! A-as for that other question, Santa-dono was walking by once while I was working and I happened to see him, so I asked him.

[kerorogunsou]

Ah, I see, de arimasu! You're so lucky you saw Santa, de arimasu! It was the real Santa, right? Not just one of those random mall Santas? What was he like, de arimasu?!

[You're lucky he's so gullible, Katsura.]

[novelvision]

Of course he was. As for how he was...he defies description. Truly, he's larger than the commercials and stories portray him. I will always remember the moment when I was walking alone and he appeared from the sky, saying "Ho ho ho!" while he asked me about my hopes and aspirations for this Christmas.

In other words, he was perfect.

[Inwardly, Katsura's sighing in relief. He doesn't quite like the idea of other people knowing he's the anonymous Santa. Actually, for some reason being anonymous just seems to attract problems...]

[kerorogunsou]

[Keroro is nodding as Katsura is talking, because SANTA. He now knows someone who met Santa!]

P-Perfect, de arimasu! Hey, Katsura-dono, if I stay up late I wonder if I can ask Santa #2 for a picture, de arimasu! An autographed one, of Santa, de arimasu!

[novelvision]

[Oh no, he had never anticipated that one! Time for diversion tactic #30903.]

I don't think that will work, Keroro-san. Santa-dono seemed to be rather shy when I spoke to him and it appears that he has difficulty talking to his true fans because he starts to cry, and that would ruin his image.

[kerorogunsou]

But Santa-san isn't coming to Death City this year, right, de arimasu? I'll just talk to Santa #2-san, de arimasu.

[novelvision]

[Dramatic cough!]

Ah, I suspect that Santa #2-dono is similarly preoccupied. Santa-dono said that he appeared rather confused when he spoke to him last and it might be better if he was left alone for a while.

[kerorogunsou]

Being Santa must be tough, huh? All the Santa-sans seem so stressed, de arimasu.

[novelvision]

Ah, that appears to be true for all Santas whether they're the real one or a helper. I think that is why it's a lifetime job, surely, only the greatest of warriors need apply...

[kerorogunsou]

Kero...Then I'll just let them do their job, de arimasu. No point in getting in Santa-san's way when they're just trying to do their job, de arimasu.
