First: Merry Christmas! (Image/Video, un: itschristmasday!)

[icedream]

[Cue an obnoxious Christmas gif being sent over the network appearing mere minutes after midnight- Noelle had definitely been waiting eagerly to post this for the last half an hour or so.

And to add to the Christmassy theme, a cheerful reindeer girl appeared on the screen, complete with a Christmas jumper and twinkling fairylights in the background. What's more festive than that?

Sure she was very nervous about addressing the whole network, but the Christmas excitement had gotten the best of her.]

Merry Christmas everyone...! I- I hope you're all having a good night.

...Gosh, It's a little strange having festivities in another world, isn't it? But I hope everyone's got some fun plans for tomorrow, it would be a shame not to celebrate. I want to see lots of cute Christmas jumpers, okay?

[She was forgetting something, wasn't she...]

Oh! Right! My name's Noelle Holiday, it's nice to meet you-

It is a bit strange, isn't it? Especially since apparently Christmas doesn't even exist here. I was looked at funny when I said Merry Christmas to someone.

[icedream]

You too, Elsa?? I've got so many strange looks today when I wished them Merry Christmas- maybe I should have gone with 'Happy Holidays' instead?

[readytolearn]

That might work better, but it might still cause confusion. I think the Solstice a few nights ago was their celebration.

Nothing stops us from celebrating Christmas. It's all about the spirit.

[icedream]

Exactly...and you just can't have- have this month without Christmas, that would be too sad.

The solstice celebrations were interesting though, weren't they?

[readytolearn]

It would definitely be sad, you're right.

[Noelle is very cute with her christmas enthusiasm, gosh.]

Yes. I definitely don't want to see another naked person again for a good while.

It's nice to meet you, too, Noelle-chan. [ Is that the right honorific for a reindeer girl? Who knows. He's rolling with it. ] My name's Tsumugi Tsukioka.

What are your plans for Christmas, if you don't mind me asking? [ He's more than happy to share his own, but her spirit is off the charts... it only feels right to listen first. ]

[icedream]

It's nice to meet you too, Tsumugi~

[Was she supposed to be using an honorific, like he did? Thanks to Avalon's magic she could tell 'chan' didn't really feel right for a boy, but... she wasn't sure what alternative to go with.]

Oh- me and my friend Susie are celebrating together! She helped me put all the decorations up...although I think I might have overcrowded our inn room a little bit, haha!

[Fromm that expression, though? Nah, you could never have enough decorations!]

What about you??

[tsumtsuki]

[ Well, that sure sounds familiar! ​]

I also decorated with one of my friends! Though it was mostly his idea. He's got a better eye for this sort of thing than I do. [ He takes a moment to pan the camera around the living room of his home, which has been decked out to the max while somehow not crossing into "too much" territory. Leave it to an artist to strike that balance! ]

As for the day itself... normally I'd be acting in a Christmas play, but this year I might just do some Christmas themed street acts. [ acting junkie... ]

[icedream]

Ohhh I love the decorations! It looks like it's come right out of a magazine-

[What skilful work! She was definitely impressed, eyes lighting up at all the Christmas finery.]

Oh- do you do a lot of acting? If you do perform something festive tomorrow I'll have to come and watch.

[tsumtsuki]

Yes, I do! I'm a part of Kaika Company, a theater troupe here in Camelot.

But outside of our productions, I'm usually performing here a few times a week. [ And he'll go ahead and text her an address with some simple directions - not for a building, but a street corner. ] Normally I don't plan in advance, but... what kind of Christmas act would you like to see?

What's with the tree and the lights? I've been seeing stuff like this everywhere. Does it have to do with this Christmas thing?

Oh and uh, nice to meet you, Noelle Holiday. My name's Horse.

[icedream]

Wait- You've not heard of Christmas??

[She had to remedy this! She thought it was only the residents of Avalon who didn't know about it, but did other worlds really not celebrate it either?]
