021 [Action] Backdated to Christmas Afternoon :|
[Luke's in quite a good mood lately. Probably because of all the Christmas cheer going around. He's found that he rather likes the holiday, as it's a chance to give stuff to people without an explanation.
He can be found wandering around with a large bag slung over one shoulder, and more often than not, there's a smile on his face as well as a light, humming tune coming from him. He's pretty much the picture of someone really enjoying what Christmas is all about, and giving to people.
Speaking of which, he has quite a few things to give to his friends.
Paprika - She gets her gift first; After sitting on his bed and wondering how to give this to her, Luke leaves behind a nice big box of chocolates with a pink carnation on top, and both sit on his nightstand. Along with it is a small piece of paper he cut out of his journal - a calling card, if you will, with the demon symbol he always wears on his shirt drawn on it.
Yuri - A katana. With it is a little note: "Guy wields something like this. I know you'll take care of it, so I won't ask.Happy Merry Christmas!"
Lindsay - A cat brush. The note attached to it reads: "Having a cat with long hair has got to be hell on your clothes. Maybe this'll help out some!"
Hiccup - A pocket knife! Attached is a note that reads: "Just don't cut yourself, okay?"
Sokka - Okay bro you get a nice, big, pre-cooked whole chicken. Because you are a guy and you know the wonders of meat.
Nami - A little bag with what looks like ten gold coins. There's a number on them that looks like some inverted 500. Inside the bag is a note: "This is gald, the currency in Auldrant. This was in my pants pocket when I found them again. I don't really need them, and I know you'd like them."
Noel - Since it is also her birthday, Luke went and got two gifts: A big panda doll that comes up to his waist, and a snowflake necklace. Attached to the necklace is a note that reads: "This is the time that you were made, right? Well... I'm glad you're alive. So I want you to have this."
Mewtwo - A white scarf. At the end is that same demon symbol on his "card" to Paprika. Hey, he made it himself and he's very fond of it, okay.
Miyabi - A pot to grow bamboo in, as well as a few sticks of bamboo already growing in there.
Elicia - A coloring book! With princesses and knights and dragons! The ultimate coloring book. (yea)
Zack - You also get a nice, big, pre-cooked whole chicken. Along with a note that says: "No more kisses."
Kairi - An ankle bracelet with seashell charms. Attached to it is a note: "You all like things that have to do with the ocean, right? So... I was hoping you'd like this. Thanks for everything."
Roxas - Rollerblades! And the note attached reads: "I don't really know what these are, but you've got that wheel board thing, so maybe you'll figure these out too!"
Minato - New headphones! Attached to the band is a note that reads: "You wear these ear things all the time, aren't they kind of dirty by now? Here, have some new ones. Maybe you can tell me what they are, too!"
Ventus - Packets of hot chocolate! With marshmallows. Because hot chocolate is nothing without marshmallows. Also a mug to drink said delicious hot chocolate in, one he hopes has sort of Terra colors.
Giles - A small box with an assortment of tea packets. The note attached says: "I wasn't sure which one you liked, so I got you a whole bunch instead."
Lloyd - A small, yet somewhat powerful telescope. The note attached reads: "You look at stars and stuff, right? A friend of mine told me that every star is a world, so maybe you can look at them through here."
Emil - He gets a pocket knife similar to Hiccup's, though different in color, and a box of fig newtons. The note attached reads: "A friend gave me these. Try them, they're really good!"
Raine - Having her as a teacher makes him a little oblivious to what she might actually want. So, he ends up getting cookies from the bakery - light blue ones with powdered sugar dusted on them, giving them the illusion of snow. The little note here says: "Thanks for teaching me so much, professor."
Xion - A seed packet, one that has the name "Selenias" printed on it. The note reads: "I couldn't think of anything that could beat out your birthday present. But try planting these when it's warm enough. They're flowers from my world, and I think you'll really like them. I love you."
Asch - A nice sketchbook with good paper to draw on. And some charcoal. And some cherry cordials. With a small vanilla cake (from the bakery). Yup.
Tear - A purple pendant, with a specific purpose in mind. The note attached reads: "I know this isn't exactly like your mother's pendant, but... I noticed you didn't have it around anymore, so I thought I'd find something that looked like it. I know it's important to you."
Anise - A stuffed, dark brown bear that comes up to about Luke's waist, like the panda doll for Noel. Inside it is one gald coin, left over from what he gave to Nami, but he's not about to tell her that. He wouldn't want her to tear it apart just to get her hands on it.
Jade - ... Another nice, big, pre-cooked chicken. The note says: "I don't think I want to know what you want, so have some food instead?"
Natalia - A nice locket that he found. Attached is a note that says: "Now you can make whole new memories here. Put them here and keep them close to you, okay?"
Nephry - A snow globe! There's no Keterburg inside, but there is a random city with tiny, tiny people in mid walk. "Now it can snow here whenever you want it to!", the note says.
Ion - He gets the same thing as Mewtwo: a white scarf with that little demon symbol at the end. Everyone should have this symbol, it's the most awesome ever.
Ginji and Noelle - The two of them get remote control helicopters, since Luke wasn't lucky enough to find Albiore shaped ones. Ginji gets one with dark colors, and Noelle with white. The note attached reads: "Maybe you guys can figure these things out."
Gelda - He's run into the same problem as Raine - he isn't sure what exactly to get her. So she gets the same thing; light blue cookies with powdered sugar dusted on top. Though the note beside hers is different: "Thanks for putting up with me. We need to talk sometime outside of the classroom!"
Afterwards, he'll go straight home, because that took a while and he's cold. Feel free to catch him before he drops off gifts, during, or after! ooc: And if I missed anyone, please drop me a line! I have the worst memory ever, for serious.]

[action]
SO FAR.]
What's in it? Let's see... [Yes, she has to think about it. She tried really hard to make this, okay!?] I-It's your standard Christmas Cake! I got flour, sugar, butter... oh! There's strawberries in there, too! I got them weeks in advance just for this! I also used some food coloring to give it some more personality and flavor! So... it's not just any Christmas Cake! I call it a Christmas Cake with style!
[...you just called it a standard christmas cake. 8|
oh, and she put onion and cayenne pepper in it, too. Needed more spice.]
[action]
[Weeks in advance... Food coloring...
...]
I-I'll take this home and... eat it there, okay? I can't really eat it right here, and... I still got some stuff to do.
[BEST EXCUSE. Asch can have it.]
[action]
I... I hope you enjoy it, though!
[action]
So, Luke sets it... carefully in his bag. Though he'd kind of rather not. But he'd rather spare Noel her feelings, especially after he gave her the necklace.
Once he straightens up, he glances down at the necklace she's wearing.]
It looks good on you.
[action]
...oh, but compliments. WAY TO AVOID YOUR DEATH.
But really--]
You... You think so?
[action] 1/2
Yeah! [He can't help grinning. It's... a nice feeling, when someone really likes a gift he gives them. Having spent most of his life just receiving gifts, giving them is a whole new experience that he likes even more.]
[action] 2/2
I meant what I said, too. I'm really happy you're here with us. [He lowers his head a little.] I know how... weird it is to hear that sometimes. But you're a good person, Noel, and a great friend to me. [He lifts his head up again and brings a hand up to his chest.] I'm not asking you to be happy on your birthday; I don't think I could be on mine... So I'll be happy and glad for you. Christmas means a little more to me now.
[action]
Luke...
[Unconsciously, almost instinctively, her hand reaches for the pendant of the necklace. How one little thing could suddenly mean so much... whether it's jewelry or words doesn't matter. If this were a few months ago, Noel wouldn't want to believe Luke.
A part of her, deep down, still almost doesn't want to hear any of it-- the same thing that very well may have attacked Luke and Yuri on that fateful day.
But as the snow falls and the wind blows, it's as though Noel can feel the power of Luke's words as she holds that tiny snowflake.
What has she done to deserve good friends like you, Luke?]
...thank you. [...] Everything you've told me... it means so much to me.
[action]
It really isn't fair for replicas to feel like it's such a surprise to hear such things. Luke can remember the day when he didn't feel that way, that he accepted such thoughts. But now...]
H-Heh... Just keep remembering it, okay? No matter what.
[action] 1/2
I will. I'll always remember this. [And though she knows no promises can be made, she'll try to follow it. After everything, Noel doesn't want Luke's point to fall through.
That can only mean another thing.]
...but only if you remember it, too. I... I want you to know how much of a good person you are, as well! No matter what's happened-- [She remembers what you've confided her in.] --It will never change that fact. A-And I also think... maybe... we can be good for what we do-- not what we are, so...
[...
...]
[action]
Um! S-So that's what I think!
[action]
I-I think so too! I mean...
[It's hard to think of himself as "good". Not after everything that happened... But to think otherwise would just contradict what he said to Noel, and that's the last thing he wants to do.
Ha, it's just like with Xion.]
I think... I know we have a purpose besides what we were made for. So... I agree with you. We can be good for what we do, not... what we are, or why we're here.
That's what I think, anyway...
[action]
[It's not a bad thing, is it? Trying to think of it like that... it's not like they deserve to feel horrible about themselves. She knows it's hard (she's practically in the same, stupid boat). But if any little thing could potentially help them, then... she wants to share that with Luke.]
[action]
After a pause, he picks up the bag again and hoists it over his shoulder.]
Hey, I've got a lot more stuff to give to people, so... Maybe we can hang out later? [ANOTHER DATE, GOSH.]
[action]
R-Really? [SHE WOULD LOVE TO, though...] As long as it's not too much stress for you, then sure!
[action]
[He doesn't really wait for a response, just grins, then heads off to gift the next person. He's already feeling pretty good about all this.]
[action]
Oh, well. Considering everything he has to take care of, he's got a busy day ahead of him.] See you later, Luke!
