[The tree in the parlor is massive. Its prickly branches stretch outwards and are weighed down with bright ornaments; the star at the top nearly touches the ceiling. In the fireplace nearby, a fire crackles warm and orange. Outside the window, there is snow. It's a perfect Christmas scene. And on the rug, under the tree? Those are your presents.]

[He looks curiously at it.]

The Author's gift?

Yeah. The one from Light is a bit too small to be a calculator and the one from the Author has me a bit worried. Have you opened yours yet?

[He shakes his head, and then turns to his small pile of gifts. He picks up the one wrapped in blue, snowflake-covered paper with a card reading "from the Author! <3" on it. He examines it with his eyes and hands before unwrapping it.]

I don't see why Americans insist upon giving each other presents on Christmas, anyway.

[He finishes unwrapping and opens the box. A shining black spiked collar and matching leash are curled up inside.]

I think it has something to do with tradition and some other mess along those lines.

[He peers over to look at the gift and his brow lifts.]

That's....interesting. A little kinky but hey...it's nice at least.

[Gene moves to open his from the Author and lets out a disgruntled sigh.]

Yay...a desk set. I have about three of these already.

[He smirking at his gift.]

These aren't so much gifts as requests. She is giving us the tools for what she wants to see us do as a request to do them.

Re: WEDNESDAY

[eugene-watson.livejournal.com]

I think you're right.

[tries thinking of which project would be best first....]

[He shrugs and puts the collar around his neck, fitting it snugly.]

[Gene opens up his gift from Light and smirks to reveal the Swiss Army knife that he broke while trying to pick a lock when he first arrived.]

I keep forgetting to replace mine that broke. I should thank him for replacing it and I didn't have to ask.

Re: WEDNESDAY

[Soubi looks at it carefully.]

Did he break it?

Re: WEDNESDAY

[eugene-watson.livejournal.com]

No. It's kinda weird and ironic that I would get a replacement from someone that I don't know.

[Gene gave an easy smile even though he was a little more than impressed that someone would give him a practical gift.]
