Has anyone gotten to meet Santa Claus before?

I wonder about that every year. I always go to his photoshoots back home, but I'm never allowed to see him. I write him letters too, but I couldn't get presents because I didn't deserve them. I've seen other kids with photos, though, and they get what they wish for, so...

But he must be real, right? So many people believe in him. It would be so crazy if he wasn't!

So... Has anyone met him? Can you tell me if he's nice?

I have when I was a child. And yes, he's very nice. He read a Christmas book with me.

I haven't met him more than once, though. He's usually very busy, I think.

[She really means it. She's a teenaged girl who believes.]

[She had just arrived into this strange new land an hour or so ago. She had used the device because there was just so much going on at the time she didn't even think about it.

But now she had her bearings a bit and with a bit of fiddling around with the device, she finally managed to get it to work. So with a small sigh of relief, she was happy.]

Finally. I managed to turn it on. [She had seen the others feed and she couldn't help but wonder... who was Santa?]

This might sound silly but... I've... never heard of someone with that name before? [Are they an adventurer of some kind.] Is that bad that I don't know?

[maskedsmile]

[Obviously, Yoshiya is too.]

Really? Maybe that's why he doesn't have time to deal with me. I must be low on his list!

[maskedsmile]

No one's told you about Santa before, miss?

He's a nice old man who gives people presents at the end of the year. But only if they've been really good!

[alchemistofalanya]

No, but I just arrived here, so I don't really know anything.

[A nice old man who gives people presents... That seems very... She didn't know the word for what she was thinking right now.]

Is there a reason he does that? Or is he just a very nice person?

I haven't met him personally. I think Cupid mentioned him on the network a while ago.

[chambermusicandtenpins]

[aww]

I have never met him, but I've heard that he's quite the kind and jolly fellow. He's supposed to be very sweet and caring towards everyone he encounters.

[innocent_royal]

I highly doubt that. I would suggest going to whatever Christmas party that is being held this month you can manage to go to and you may see him.

That's how I met him.

[bigbadrose]

Yes.

Well, Father Christmas.

Well... it's a long story.

What makes you think you don't deserve presents?

[maskedsmile]

A party...? Wouldn't I need an invite...

I've never been to a Christmas party.

[maskedsmile]

Oh! Well... Welcome to Genessia, miss. My name is Yoshiya, and if you need anything then I'd be really happy to help.

But uh. For a reason... I'm not sure, actually. I think he's just very kind. I'm envious. Being so kind is such a wonderful thing, don't you think?

[maskedsmile]

That's right, Cupid was a dog! I was surprised!

Do you think Santa is a dog too?

[maskedsmile]

Wow, really? I would love to meet him, but maybe that would ruin the mystery? There's probably some power in never getting to meet him, but still knowing he exists!

[innocent_royal]

Then you're in for a treat this month.

I haven't seen anyone host a private party, so there is absolutely a chance you can go to one.

[maskedsmile]

They're different...?

Oh, and because I'm... [He bites his tongue. "Yoshiya" isn't supposed to be a Curse Kami. He doesn't want to be associated with his real self, so,] I'm a rotten kid. I tell a lot of lies.

[maskedsmile]

Eh... It sounds like fun. I wonder what people do at Christmas parties? I think... Once, Lucas attended one. He had to entertain girls and they made him drink warm wine.

[innocent_royal]

Hmm... The one I went to years ago... We just mingled and talked. Sing songs, dance, read books. My favorite was the Night before Christmas.

[She is not going to ask what kibd of party this Lucas fellow went to.]

[bigbadrose]

Not really.

Yeah? [Wry grin.] I dunno, the brattiest of brats usually don't know they're being rotten.

Maybe try cutting back as much as you can and Santa will reward the improvements and effort?

[maskedsmile]

That does sound like a lot of fun! I remember there were a lot of Christmas carols to learn on the piano. I'm pretty good at playing them on my ocarina too. Maybe I should practice them again.

[maskedsmile]

Um... Well. Maybe...

It might also be too late for that. Besides, I can't think of anything I'd want this year. I'm a lot more comfortable than I was back home.

Did Santa visit you?

[innocent_royal]

Music goes great with songs.

[Astute observation, Princess Obvious.]

Perhaps I can join you with my Primarina sometime?

[bigbadrose]

When I was a kid.

Thought it was just my Mum when I was older, but I met Santa and he let it slip a bit.

It's never too late to turn it around. And if you don't want anything for yourself, that's good, you should ask for something good for someone else, yeah?

[chambermusicandtenpins]

I imagine so! And I imagine he appreciates it -- after all, there are so many people to bring gifts to in all the world, it must be difficult to be able to meet them all.

[alchemistofalanya]

It's nice to meet you. I'm Totooria, but usually, people call me Totori.

Ah, yeah. It can be and it's something we can all be capable of. Though, you make it sound like you aren't.

[nrgsvr]

I don't think he is.

I'm sure he would be fluffy if he was.
