[23: Action]

[technologic]

[Okay, so this sudden bout of paranoia was not a good thing. Especially since it was getting worse and she was starting to become uneasy around people she considered her friends, which sucked. But there was at least a few people she still felt comfortable and at ease around, which she was grateful for. And even with this paranoia, she still had gifts to give out.

So April will be going around to people's rooms and delivering these gifts to them;

Ledah: These handmade gloves, this coat and a rare book on European history.

Neah: This handmade black scarf

Saori: This handmade teal scarf

Beatrice: This handmade gold shawl

Mila: This handmade black and red scarf

Aengus: This handmade butterfly scarf

Diarmuid: This handmade purple and green scarf

Gaignun: This handmade silver scarf

Allen: This handmade blue scarf

[You are glorious and getting a kiss.]

Action

[technologic]

[Yay kisses! And it gets a cheerful smile from April.] You like them, then?

Action

[gaveupfeeling]

Absolutely, my dear.

Action

[technologic]

[She giggles happily, now blushing faintly, and gives him a quick kiss.] Ah, I'm glad to hear it! I, uh, was gonna try to make the coat by hand too, but I thought it would be best to buy one instead since I'm not that good at sewing yet.

[papermache]

*Mila cautiously opens the door, but grins when she sees April.*

Hey, thanks, Red. Merry Christmas and a lack of sacrificed pigs.

[technologic]

[Mila gets a grin back and a giggle as she offers the little wrapped gift to her.]

Ehe, it's nothing. Merry Christmas, Mila.

[papermache]

*Mila takes it carefully and prods it, checking for traps, before opening it up.*

Whoa. Nice, Red. It looks great! Merry Christmas to you, too. Wait a tic, yours is in the back. *pause* Actually, come in. You never know what's out there.

[technologic]

[Blink and nod.] Oh, um, okay!

[Into Mila's room she goes.]

[toruin]

[You know the event has affected him when he doesn't crack a joke at his door.

instead, you'll see a pair of glowing yellow eyes before the door fully opens and he stays a good foot away from her. Just. Out of paranoia.]

Thank you.

[technologic]

[It still doesn't stop her from giving him a small smile.] It's nothing, since there's no way I couldn't get you something for Christmas. But, um, would you want me to leave it by the door?

[toruin]

[He's the equivalent to Chitose right now. So he's a bit wary at the smile. Yet...]

You can come in. [A pause.] Is anyone with you?

[technologic]

[A blink. And then she shakes her head.] Nope, it's just me.

[Action]

[namedforcat]

[It takes a minute for the door to open, but not because Gaignun is particularly worried about who may be be on the other side, he's just hasn't had much sleep.]

April? Ah, why don't you come in?

[Action]

[technologic]

Hi, Gaignun! [She gives him a small smile, and then blinks and nods.]

Ah, okay!

[Action]

[namedforcat]

[Paranoia for Gaignun is much more internal then it is for other people. Comes from being forcibly taken over by a malevolent entity.]

What brings you down this hall today April?

[Action]

[technologic]

Delivering presents! [Just gonna offer him a little wrapped package.] Um, here.

Action

[needsteaplz]

[It does it take a second for Saori to open the door but Sirius insisted. He wags his tail in happiness and Saori is behind him.]

Ah, April! Good timing! I was going to bring out my gifts too. Might as well do the exchange now.

Action

[technologic]

[She gives Sirius a pet on the head, and then smiles at Saori.]

Hi, Saori! And ehe, guess it was good timing, here you go. [Holding out the little wrapped package to her.]

Action

[needsteaplz]

[She grabs something behind the door and hands a large rectangular wrapped gift to exchange. Inside would be two square tins filled with a specific blend of tea for each of them along with a chew toy for their dog.]

Thank you, sweetie. It's for you, Ledah, and your puppy. I hope you won't mind it being a combination gift like that.

[golden_witch]

[Beatrice isn't one to show paranoia even if she's feeling it. She'll answer the door as elegant as ever, but the softening of her demeanor will be obvious once she sees who's outside and why.]

Oh, April! It's nice to see you, dear.

[This, of course, all said while tearing into her gift.]

AH. It's beautiful~! That reminds me. I didn't forget you, either! Do come in and I'll go and fetch your gift.~ ♥

[technologic]

[April grins happily up at the other woman, pleased that she likes her gift.]

You're welcome! And, ah, okay. [In that case, she'll just wander into Beatrice's room, looking rather curious.]

[golden_witch]

[She'll fold her new gift lovingly over her arm and disappear into the bedroom for just a moment. When she comes back, she'll have two boxes in her hands.]

The small one is just for you. A golden butterfly brooch. It's a slight replica of one that grants true love.

The larger one is something silky for you and Ledah to enjoy together. Ah, but you don't have to open that here.~ ♥

[want_a_vacation]

*Like many others, Allen takes a moment to answer the door. Unlike others, this is probably related to the fact that it smells like he's been drinking a bit.*

Oh, April. Sorry I kept you waiting, I wasn't exactly expecting company.

[technologic]

Ah, it's fine...

... You been drinking?

[want_a_vacation]

Ah, yeah. I've got some memories associated with today that I don't want to spend hours thinking about.
