[Good afternoon, Paradisa! There is a blonde ninja in a sweater chilling in your kitchen today, casually having a snack. She knocked out all the nutcrackers she could find in there, but of course, that's never good enough, they'll be back.

Still, she's had this happen often enough that it's stopped being horrifying and more like a minor inconvenience in her day. So she'll just be munching on this apple as she dictates into the journal:]

So, is everyone all done with their Christmas shopping? Or are you all procrastinating until the last minute? I guess it doesn't matter since you could just wish up what you wanted, huh ... ?


[Zelos]

Can we talk?

Hm?

If this about the toaster, I swear I have no idea why it's shooting out sparks.

Zelos

[ino]

[ ... lmfao]

It's not about the toaster. It's about our conversation the other day.

Ino

[wilder]

Huh? -Oh, yeah.

What's up?

[heal_theworld]

[Martel has come into the kitchen for some food, and she sees Ino there, eating an apple.]

Ah, hello, Ino! How have you been lately?

[ino]

[waves!]

Hey, Martel! I've been okay. How about you?

[heal_theworld]

[She wanders over to where Ino is.] I've been fine. Wandering around and looking at all the wonderful decorations.

[whichwayyoulean]

Isn't wishing for people's presents kinda...cheap?

[ino]

Well, I wouldn't do that. But I'm sure there are people who do.

[whichwayyoulean]

Well, that's just plain depressing.

3/3

[not_mafia]

Heeeeh!! That's right, I need to get everybody presents!! [SLKJDGHSD]

[ino]

... You seriously forgot ... ?

[reigne]

Christmas?

[Whatever he's King Arthur, he can eavesdrop on all of your journal conversations if he wants to. He's not even really interested in eating any of the food presently in the kitchen, he's just...Inspecting the weird shit he doesn't understand in the fridge.

Also opening and closing it slowly. WHO'S TURNING THE LIGHT ON?????]

[ino]

[blinks ... oh!]

Hey, Arthur.

... What are you doing?

[reigne]

There is something very odd about this...Contraption.

[Oh I'm sorry, did you want a sane, elaborate explanation? Oh well, too bad] You did not answer my question.

Dictated

[losttrack]

...Wait, shopping?

I thought the three Santa guys gave all of the gifts. To babies. Or something.

[ino]

... Eh? There's three Santas now?

[losttrack]

Aren't there? They give babies gold and... Other things. [That she can't remember.] And then they take up all the room at the inn.

Which is under a tree.

[ Aw, piss, it's Christmas already, isn't it... This is what you get for being pulled out of mid-June, Sirius.

He's out to go explore and take in the decorations, and get his measure of the place. If he and James are going to pull off any good pranks, he needs to know the layout of the castle.

So naturally, Sirius' teenager stomach has led him to the kitchen, where he's looking around in mild perplexion. ]

Doesn't this place have house elves...?

[ Oh, someone's here- a really pretty someone. He smiles almost immediately. ]

Anything good in there? [ He points at the refrigerator as he approaches it. ]

[ino]

"House elves"?

And there's whatever you want in there.

[heirofficium]

House elves. My family has one, he does all the chores and cooking. Hogwarts has gads of 'em to cook meals, too. You'd think a castle this big would at least have a few to do the laundry...

Oh really? Brilliant. [ He starts pulling out lots of random things, which may or may not include Exploding Lemonade and pumpkin pasties.

He glances at her, giving her a friendly, if not slightly smarmy smile. ]

The name's Sirius, by the way. Who might you be?

[eat_me_beat_me]

How 'bout neither? I'm making all my gifts.

[ino]

Oh? I'm excited to see! Are you almost done with that, then?

[eat_me_beat_me]

Yeah, I'm pretty close to finished with all of 'em. [she pauses]

I'm still not sure what I'm giving Mark yet, though.
