[It's late, but Flora is sitting in the living room with a bright smile and applauding.]

I'm so glad all that snow's relaxed on us! I was quite concerned that it was going to take away the spirit of the season. But at the stroke of midnight, it will be Christmas!

[Her smile grows a little more.] It's my first Christmas spent with others. Well, real others. I'm... actually quite excited about that. So, in the spirit, I've made presents for people! I wasn't sure who was still around, so I just... made a lot of them.

[They're all really shoddily-made cookies. Thankfully, there are no foreign, non-cookie like ingredients (except for a few eggshells, oops), but she did try! She used a bit too much salt, and they're not really shaped properly, but they're... the closest thing to edible that she's ever gotten and goddamn it you had better like this cookie. Each package contains three, and she tilts the Gear to show at least forty packages on the table.]

Just let me know if you'd like me to send you one, if I already haven't!

[She turns the gear back and just smiles. Flora is very proud of these cookies, okay? But before she clicks away, a look of sudden remembrance appears on her face.]

Oh! Before I forget, I had a question! I had been wondering this for a while, after hearing a jingle. But... What sort of Reindeer games was Rudolph excluded from playing? I thought they merely acted like normal deer, but... apparently they don't?


[[OOC: Luke, Emmy, Winry, Rin, you guys can wake up to these hideous cookies being delivered to you. Everyone else, Flora will either Delibird deliver or personally hand them to you. She's such a good kid.]]

[She gave a smile.] Yes. You can find me at Goldenrod Pokecenter.

[That smile was eventually replaced with a strange look.] You haven't played tag before? The one game where there's someone chasing a whole bunch of people around and if they touch you, then its your turn to chase them around.

Ah! I'll bring one to you soon, then! [Yay new friend and cookie delivery!

She shakes her head.] No, I... didn't have many friends growing up. [Read: One.]

[brokenmemories]

[Misaki's smile drops when she heard that. At least she's making friends with her cause Misaki can be the best friend you'll ever have.]

[Kind of.]

I'm sorry to hear that. Was your childhood...alright?

[video]

[icansolvethemtoo]

Hmm? Oh, yes! My childhood was quite wonderful! [She smiled brightly, but there's a sad look in her eyes.] My father and I were very close, so I spent a lot of time with him. There just weren't many children in town.

[brokenmemories]

[In a way, Misaki was relieved but she still felt sympathy for girl.]

How was your father like?

[video]

[icansolvethemtoo]

[At the inquiry, Flora perks up immediately. She loves talking about her father!]

He was a wonderful man! He was very nice, and we spent a lot of time together. He had a very jolly laugh, and he gave some of the best hugs! When he came home from work, he'd scoop me right up! [There's a happy sigh.] But that was back when I was very small.

[brokenmemories]

[Misaki gave a smile. Hearing Flora's explanation about her father gave her a warm feeling, reminding her of her father back home.]

He sounds very loving. [She let a small laugh.] Were you this close with your mother too?

[video]

[icansolvethemtoo]

[She beams and nods, but that perkiness is quick to fade. But Flora tries to smile again.]

I... was, when I was even younger. But she died when I was five. My father used to say I look like her.

[brokenmemories]

[Crap, that was not what she was expecting at all.]

Oh, I'm sorry... I didn't mean to upset you..

[video]

[icansolvethemtoo]

Oh! No, it's alright. I'm not upset at all. [She nods calmly.] I had a very nice childhood, all things considered. But enough about me! Would you mind sharing a little about yourself as well?

[video]

[brokenmemories]

[Misaki blinked.] Not..at all.

I don't really remember too much of my childhood. [A lie.] From what I can remember was that it wasn't exactly pleasant.

[icansolvethemtoo]

Oh... I'm sorry. That's quite sad to hear.
