[A very glittery pink package had arrived on Minako's door that morning. Attached to it was a small pink card filled with a calligraphy engraving of ,"Thank you," and once turned it displayed the logo of the store. Inside her package she will be thrilled to see that not only did the swimsuit she wore had been given to her as a gift, but also three Kate Spade Ribbon Bangles]
[ Wrapped up neatly in several packages, which are contained within a larger box (that didn't fit in the mailbox - oops - so it's sitting on her front step) is the entire ensemble pictured here. There's no note, of course, because it's from the Christmas Ninja! ]
( For Christmas, Minako will receive a penguin doll and a small box of sea shell shaped chocolates with "Venus :)" written on it. She will also have a plain Christmas card,
When she picks up her paycheck for the month, she will notice a moderate Christmas bonus has been added. )

Thank you for your hard work this year. See you after Christmas!

[ Whether you've been naughty or nice, Hong Kong wants you to have a very Merry Christmas and happiest holidays. The best way to do this, of course, is via eating sweets that have been lovingly and tenderly hand-crafted for you and by imbibing a little mulled wine. If you're underage, you get some apple cider. Which is just as festive! Warm it up, sit in front of your tree, and eat the heads off some gingerbread people as you wait for Santa to come knocking. Or sliding down your chimney, whichever. Included with the package is a card wishing you a "Happy Christmas!"
Minako's (second, not secret) gift also includes some personalized business cards with the logo he designed on them, as well as a name placard for Minako. See, super official! ]

[ in the package Nai has sent, there are cookies, a yellow star necklace, a keycharm, and a tiny jar with flowers in it. also with the package, there is a note written in childish handwriting: ]
Merry Christmas, Minako-sama! Thank you for being the bestest big sister!!!! I love you lots!! Have a nice day!

[ Wow, so maybe Hanako wanted to give you something after all. Hmph!
There will be something inside AND outside the mailbox. Inside, there will be a nicely decorated packet full of Cristmas cookies, while at the feet of the mailbox, there will be a rather heavy box, completely wrapped in golden colored paper with a red ribbon on top.
Inside the box... well, there's the entire Twilight saga. Both movie DVDs and books, for a double pleasure. And a note inside. ]

I would like to have your feedback on the books especially. I know you watched the movies already, but I figured you could watch them again. Merry Christmas.

Also, tied in a little red cellophane sack are some ausuki, though considerably less burnt than the picture. There's a decent-size ornament attached to the handle of the basket too. Lining the basket is a thin sheet of bandana like material, and a note is safety-pinned to the front. Hers also has a blouse and skirt set, rolled up and tied with twine. ]
Linksmų Kalėdų ir laimingų Naujųjų Metų (Merry Christmas and a Blessed New Year),
Hopefully these suit you! I'm trying to figure out what goes together, but I'm still pretty useless. Hopefully I can continue to be an okay fake father to you in the future.

[She's awfully late at this! But finally she is sending a very late Christmas gift Minako's way. She couldn't pass up the opportunity! She bought a scarf crafted by Iceland. It's red and white and surely it will keep Minako warm all winter. There is a note attached as well.]
Merry Christmas! Well it is late for that but how about Happy New Year!

[ And now for proof that the reminder was needed, since she completely forgot. So she's just going to stand in front of her mailbox and panic as she's reading the note, okay. ]
W-what kind of reminder is this supposed to be?! Don't tell me some shady gang is after me or something like that..! [ Good job, Minako. ]

[ Nai's Valentine gift is a box of strawberry chocolate + a small sheep plushie with a note saying Happy Valentine's Day ]
W.. wait, really?! You got moved just like that, without a warning? But.. why? You're supposed to be my dad, right..?
[ .. honestly, it's one of the first actually sad things she's heard in this place so far. As strange as it is, she really got attached to their little family thing, even if it was fake. ]

| [Chihiro actually feels a little guilty about this whole thing because she's honestly having the time of her life. She's still a pretty shy girl of course, but if she goes out, does something, talks to people--SHE REMEMBERS IT THE NEXT DAY!!! THIS IS A FUCKING MIRACLE GOD DAMN. But that's why when she sees her body, it's like being hit with a truck for a reminder. She's selfishly been having fun while this girl might have already forgotten what she looks like... So Minako will have one Rapunzel-haired body running towards her, yeah. (And if she looks awkward it's because she's never had to deal with shoujo limbs before I mean--)] Um, excuse me! Excuse me! |
[ Yeah, Minako's been incapable of remembering anything at all. Not that she minds a terrible lot, since amnesia just makes Minako even more oblivious, but it's so.. weird. Like something keeps missing every single time, like she keeps having to search for a name over and over again.
But it doesn't take away much of her cheerfulness. So when she hears the other girl calling out and coming over, she just blinks. ]
What? Is something wrong?
the fact that she doesn't make over the top faces will be the end of me

[ Sasuke. Look at your life. Look at your choices.
Of course Minako doesn't know anything about any of this though, so she just opens the door obliviously, a huge smile - by default, really - on her face. ]
Good morning, I-- [ .. woah, wait. Cute guy alert. Act natural, Minako. ] W.. well.. hi there..!

[ .. Why is this random scribble inside her mailbox?! That doesn't even look like it could be a love letter from a secret admirer..!
(Minako, did you already forget the name of the person you talked to. He yelled it.)
Oh well, time to just throw it away. ]

[ Normally, the regains and notices have been pretty nonchalant in their delivery, other than their piercing punctuality and synchronization. This time, though, the delivery is a tad bit more aggressive.
A journal will come to you in one of two ways, depending on your house and its set up. If you'd imagine your house has a mail slot in its door, then it will come shooting through, skittering across your floor. If you'd rather just have your one mail delivery system, your mailbox, then your journal will be chunked through your window. The glaring hole will be fixed by tomorrow.
If you're brave enough to pick it up, there will be be a piece of paper roped to it with a thin length of packaging twine. The paper states plainly Use your christmas key.
If your character remembers, their gift for fulfilling the Christmas event was a key gifted to them on New Years, which attached itself to their keyring after they accepted it. And yet another if: if they remember they can open it with this key.
And if they open it, they'll find this. Checking back on it every once in awhile might be a good idea. ]
[ guess who's calling back right away at the very mention of the word "party". ]
Hi, I can't believe I missed the news on that..! What kind of party is it going to be? Will that guy you like be there too? Come on, that's the kind of stuff that's important!

[ She's about to hold a big speech on how there's no such thing as "a bit sudden" when it comes to destined love.. but then she hears that last line. R-really?! Could it really be.. ]

[ In Minako's mailbox is a rather elaborate-looking card, but unlike the image this one is devoid of any lettering and stamped in the middle with three stickers: two gold and one yellow.
~Mysteriously~ there is no message of any sort, nor any signature indicating who it came from.
Because it's such a ~mystery~ ]

[Sitting neatly in Minako's mailbox with a letter tied to his neck with a ribbon sits this white cat. The outside of the letter is decorated with four gold stars. Inside the letter, the note reads:]
Minako-chan,
I know it must be hard to be separated from Artemis for so long! I know I really, really really miss Luna already and you've been here way longer than me! But I thought maybe you could keep this guy and remember Artemis with him! He's super fuzzy and really soft.
I'm glad you're here with me, it's a lot less scary and lonely being separated from everyone knowing you're here! Your letter was a really great reminder that we have each other no matter what happens. I'll always do my best to make sure the future we have will be as bright as I can make it!
Love,
Usagi

[There is a letter in the mail along with a gold star.]
Dear Minako,
I got your letter in the mail! Your handwriting is so cute. Well I shouldn't expect anything less from you. But I wish I could write like that. I know I'll practice by sending you letters. Then again I think I enjoy the time I spend with you so I am not sure if there would be much to write about?
By the way, have you met my friends? Madoka and Mami. I am sure it would be great if you guys met if you haven't. Anyway I am not sure what these stickers are for but I wanted you to have one. ★

[ A yellow star sticker is stuck to Minako's doorknob with a note attached to it. ]
Dearest Minako,
The note you left me the other day really touched me. I've never had children, or even anything remotely like them or family. I never actually thought I would bond with someone in a way that was familial and I will forever consider you a part of my family, even after we do (and I pray one day we do). If that day does come, I think your presence in my life will be one of the only things I will miss. I've actually been a little grateful that I've stuck around long enough to get to know you and your sister.
Love, your dad
