Has anyone ever witnessed a Christmas Miracle before?

[ Yes, you can see that in the corner of the video, there are several holiday novels Oz is reading. ]

Not all miracles are positive in nature, evidently.

[timeticksaway]

Oh...? What would those be, Mister Vincent?

[boat_lights]

What fuss Gilbert must be making, to be left all alone like this.

[timeticksaway]

I bet Gil's fine. He's strong and capable of handling himself.

[boat_lights]

Is that what you tell yourself to justify his abandonment?

[timeticksaway]

[ OH GOD WHY YOU DO THIS, TENSING UP ... ]

He hasn't abandoned me. He's busy....

[boat_lights]

[Because he is a troll.]

Far too busy to entertain your whims.

[timeticksaway]

Or incapable of coming here.

[hatehatehatehatehate - wait...Vincent was...here last time he was, right? Yes, that's true and... hadn't he... ]

Ah, Master Vincent, I have to ask...

Are you afraid of losing your head?

[boat_lights]

[If he is surprised, he doesn't show it overtly. However, there is a certain hardness to his eyes.]

Don't we all?

[timeticksaway]

[ Two can play at this game. ]

After all, it's been such a danger lately to the Nightrays.

[boat_lights]

Unfortunately. It places us in such a precarious position.

I hadn't known you to be so interested in the affairs of the Nightrays, however.

[timeticksaway]

How can I not be when it becomes Pandora's priority?

[boat_lights]

Pandora's matters are Pandora's alone, are they not? Little lordlings with their long noses should not have a place there.

[timeticksaway]

But they do - or does Vincent not know this?

[boat_lights]

On the contrary. It's terribly hard to ignore.

[timeticksaway]

I wonder how much Vincent knows right now. [ DOES HE HAVE AN EDGE ]
