Secret Santa?

You should. They're all very nice people.

It is very confusing. I still don't understand why we were all brought here from such different points in time.

Yep! Back in December Weiss ran a Secret Santa...I signed up and got Rei, so I gave her a music player. It had Mr. Gavin's hits on it!!

Me either...honestly, I'm glad Daddy and I are at the same timeline point. It'd be kind of terrible if he didn't remember adopting me. Oooh, or if Polly didn't remember me...! That just gives me the shivers.

You are very lucky. I'm glad for you.

[Even if it meant a few complications on her end.]

[stagewright]

Hey, do you ever get your nails done?

text;

[shroudedinsecrecy]

What do you mean?

text;

[stagewright]

[ she attaches a file ]

Painted or whatever! I have a lot of nail polish if you want to come hang out anytime.

text;

[shroudedinsecrecy]

[Give her some time to access said file and then look over the picture.]

How pretty! No, I've never had that before.

Do you know how to paint those designs?

text;

[stagewright]

Yeah!! Those are mine right now. :) I can do flowers for you too? I only got to start using lip gloss after my birthday here, but Daddy never had any objections to nail polish, so I've been using that for aaaaaaages.

[ apparently phoenix wright has some objections to other types of makeup in the vicinity of his daughter? ]

[shroudedinsecrecy]

[Don't ask Iris; she hardly ever wore any makeup, herself.]

Sure!

I would love to come over and spend some time with you like that. Or you can come here. Whatever's easier for you.

[stagewright]

I'm fine either way!! Would today be good for you, or another day?

text;

[shroudedinsecrecy]

Today would be fine. I only have work in the morning and will be home just before lunch.

text;

[stagewright]

In that case, just come over here! I'll make you lunch and nail-painting can happen after! You can tell me stories about college-aged Daddy?

text;

[shroudedinsecrecy]

Alright.

Though, are you sure you want to hear them? Most of them might not seem very interesting to anyone but us.

text;

[stagewright]

Of course I am! Stories about the people I love are allllllways interesting. Especially if they're funny and I can bring them up at hilarious times. Please tell me all the funny ones!

text;

[shroudedinsecrecy]

I'll try.

text;

[stagewright]

See you later!! :) Just ring the bell when you get here, ok?

text;

[shroudedinsecrecy]

ok

[cresthopes]

[Now that made Takeru stop and ponder a little.]

Anyone I like very much? Well, I like you and I like my brother a lot? And my friends and Leia-san too! And Han-san and everyone here!

[How else was he suppose to answer? He knew that liking someone the same way Iris does for Phoenix was suppose to be grown up stuff!

Best to go for the next best thing right?]

[shroudedinsecrecy]

[More or less the answer she had been expecting, which was why she nodded without surprise.]

That's wonderful. That you have so many people you like.

[cresthopes]

Why wouldn't I? Everyone's been so nice since I got here! A lot of people said that CERES is bad but I think there are a lot of nice people here too!

So I don't think it's that bad!

[shroudedinsecrecy]

Oh, no, I agree.

[...she had her doubts, of course. Things she couldn't express to a child. Particularly as they were little more than rumours and words spoken by those she hadn't known all that well. She did believe them. It just...wasn't the right time to bring any of it up.]

Even the games haven't all been terrible. This really is an...interesting place to live.

[cresthopes]

[But the more that Takeru thought about it? The more he hummed to himself a little.]

You know what this place reminds me a lot of? I don't know if you know what the Digital World is but it sure reminds me a lot of it. Where there were a lot of evil Digimon coming and hurting me and my friends?

I don't think it's that much different here!

[shroudedinsecrecy]

[Digital...World...?]

Is that anything like the ViViD games? That's supposed to be a...world inside a computer, right?

[cresthopes]

Kind of! Except the monsters in the game are real! That's where Patamon came from! See?

[He said before pointing to said flying potato sitting on the sofa] I still don't really understand it but as long as he's real then that's all that matters right?

[shroudedinsecrecy]

They seemed quite real to me inside the game as well.

[Though she would hardly agree with the flying potato's real-ness. He was too cute not to be real.]
