Yuri wandered near the tree, much smaller now than he had been before he used that weird card. (Being in an eleven year old body again was WEIRD.) He had gotten some strange message on his Dreamberry about a Secret Santa...? Whatever THAT meant... anyway, apparently he was supposed to get a gift of some sort for someone named Haruhi? He'd never even met her (was it even a her? It sounded like a female name, but he didn't really know) before, but he was hoping maybe someone else had, so that he could find out what sort of thing to get her. He didn't really know much about gift-giving. In the lower quarter, where money was tight, they had usually made gifts, or given some sort of service (cooking or cleaning or things of that nature) for free. But they had all known each other... they'd never just given random gifts to people they didn't know. Was that normal in other places?

Well, whatever. By the looks of it he wasn't the only one confused by the message, anyway.

"Sword? Do you really need a sword here?"

[yuri_no_seigi]

"Well, I did when I first got here, when there were all those monsters around and everything was dark." He shrugged. "I haven't needed it since then, but you never know, right?"

"Oh, yes..." If he had arrived then, it would make sense for him to want a sword. "Are you good with a sword, then?"

[yuri_no_seigi]

"I guess I'm pretty good. I've been practicing ever since I was a kid, though." He looked at her. "So I assume you must come from a world without monsters, then, if you don't carry weapons on you?" He tried to steer the conversation in her direction, so that he could find out what kind of thing to give her as a gift. It sure made things a lot harder when you had to give a gift to someone who didn't even come from the same world as you.

"Oh, no, my world doesn't have any monsters, or magic or any of those things. It's fairly quiet compared to some of the others I've heard about."

[yuri_no_seigi]

"Really? That's hard for me to imagine, not having monsters or magic. What kind of world is your world, then?"

[uncommontype]

"Well..." She thought for a moment about how to explain. "We have a lot of cities, similar to this one but full of people. We have a lot of technology. And, aah...well, everyone just goes to school or works, mostly. We don't do anything terribly exciting."
