[After a long trek through the snowy field, a row of fancy heat lamps and a stone gate finally come into view. Through it, the town of Lutie is visible, and looking quite welcoming with its Christmas greetings everywhere. Compared to the frozen tundra, you'll want to hurry inside - just try not to let the wall hit you on the way in! And once the gate is passed, the first thing you'll see is a massive Christmas Tree.... ]

[Ryoji spots Neku wandering around and excitedly waves him over to his spot under the Christmas tree.]

Hey! Neku-kun, come look!

[needsmorezippers]

[Oh. He hadn't seen that yet... he'll wander over towards Ryoji, then.]

What's up?

[notsogrimreaper]

Did you see this? There's presents under the tree! I can't find any for us...

A-At least I don't think they're for us... I can't read the writing.

Still! It looks really nice! Like Christmas! And maybe more presents will show up here.

[needsmorezippers]

Well, we're not supposed to be here, remember? [He's be more surprised if there was anything connected to them here.]

[notsogrimreaper]

I guess we're not... It still got me thinking, though. I'd like to celebrate Christmas here.

[needsmorezippers]

How?

[notsogrimreaper]

Um... I don't know, I haven't actually celebrated Christmas before.

[needsmorezippers]

You haven't?

[notsogrimreaper]

No... I was only alive for a short time... and last Christmas, I...

[Well, he was a bit busy hating himself for being alive.]

[needsmorezippers]

[...right.]

Well, if we could find a way to do presents or something here...

[notsogrimreaper]

[Hey, you try spreading Christmas cheer once you find out you're going to end the world.]

There are a few shops here that sell sweets and stuff, right? I could at least afford a few things for the others here!

[needsmorezippers]

Yea. I'm sure people would like that. [Neku doesn't really do a lot with Christmas himself, so...]

[notsogrimreaper]

What do you want for Christmas then?

[needsmorezippers]

[oh um. he wasn't expecting that question.]

I... don't know?

[notsogrimreaper]

There must be something you want! Just let me know, Neku-kun. I'll try to find it for you!

[needsmorezippers]

Other than leaving?

[notsogrimreaper]

Eheh... yeah, other than that. I don't think I could do that.

[needsmorezippers]

I really don't know.

[notsogrimreaper]

Well... Just let me know if you think of anything, okay? You're a good person, Neku-kun. I'd like to thank you in any way I can.

[needsmorezippers]

Um... ok. Thanks.

[neku hasn't received presents from friends in ages how does this work.]

[notsogrimreaper]

You're welcome!

[Don't ask him, he's the one celebrating Christmas for the first time. He's just going off of what he saw in the movies!]

[needsmorezippers]

...How long have you been out here? [also, when was the last time you actually earned any points...?]

[notsogrimreaper]

I don't know, a few hours, I guess? Why?

[Points shmoints. The higher-ups seem confident that Death will still be the best Reaper ever even if he's a total wimp.]

[needsmorezippers]

No reason. [sigh]

[notsogrimreaper]

How about you? You look pretty cold, maybe you should go inside and warm up.
