33rd Teddy Bear [Video/Action]

[The bad news... Elicia's brothers were gone. So while the house waited for them to show back up, Elicia did the same. But she was in high enough spirits, at least, with Christmas just around the corner. And when she was finished with her usual occupational things on weekends she cracked open her journal sleepily, laying cross-legged on her stomach, on her made bed.]

Did lots of you have Christmas at home? Was it nice?

[She beams with her cheek resting on her arm.]

This is gonna be my second one!! I hope Santa thinks I've been a good girl, 'cause I've been trying extra hard not to be bad, so I'd get good presents! Make sure you're all good, okay? So you can get a lotta' presents, too...! What's the best present you got from him before?

[Aah! She perks up, looking at her window, bright-eyed in an instant.]

It's snowing again! I'm gonna make some snow people! You guys should make some, too!

[Action]

[Elicia'll be outside for the rest of the day, crouched low and rolling snowballs out of the thin veil on the floor. Soon, there are stacked snowballs. And then, eyes on them. And then little stick arms. By the time it's three or four? Behold—dozens and dozens of little snow men surrounding House #23!! They may be the height of a ruler, but their numbers are many! It's like Snow Sparta around here.

Don't be alarmed if some have little weapons fastened to their hands made of sticks. That's just how we roll in Elicialand.]

No problem!! I'll get you something really nice! Tell me stuff you like, and I'll get you a cool present!

Hm.....stuff I like. [Sadly most of that is family. And he doubts she can bring that here.]

If you just make me a nice card, that'll be plenty.

[asobouyo]

Alright! I'll make you a really nice card! Okay?

[hiken_ace]

Thanks a lot, Elicia. And I'll make sure to get you a really pretty doll, okay?

[C-can we handwave that he actually got it for her...]

[asobouyo]

Silly Ace, you're not supposed to tell people what your present is for them!


...

B-but a dolly sounds really nice! I'll have my present ready, okay? I'll send it to you!

[hiken_ace]

Ah, my bad. [He smirks.] But you don't know what kind of doll it'll be. So it's still a surprise.

Thanks, kiddo.

[That is the cutest thing EVER. He probably got her something like this.]
