Wall Rewards: Whirlygig Juggle
Reaped Rewards: Aqua Ghost
Mission Rewards: Adamantite
Bonus Reward: Love Me Tether

[It seems this week's GM is pretty easy-going, as this is another simple mission... it seems that spirits are still somewhat down amidst the RG, to say nothing of the Reapers. Obviously, one or more of them need to be happy to clear the mission. But which ones?

Strangely, all phones will get a second mail a few minutes after the first, though it's a little different than the mission mail... it actually seems to be in a somewhat stylized script, and reads quite differently.]

While those in this Game are carrying out your mission, there is one grinch who seems to be quite intent on befouling the name of this town and perhaps all of Christmas! Perhaps if you could find it in your heart to spread a little Christmas cheer to that snakey soul, Santa might have an extra present for you!

Ho ho ho~!

[This... doesn't seem to be part of the mission, but is it a prank? Santa does live in town...]

[[OOC note: Just like W2D7, you get a secondary mission! It's not gonna be easy, though, and the Reaper in question definitely did NOT agree to such a thing...]]

Comments

[doudemoe]

Thanks.

[He doesn't think so. It's more ironic than anything.]

How's Christmas?

[doudemoe]

[You bet. At the end, he finishes with a flourish.]

[notsogrimreaper]

It's good! I met Santa-san! He's just like in the stories!

[CAN YOU SEE HOW EXCITED HE IS HE IS SO HYPED LIKE A KID ON A BUCKET OF HALLOWEEN CANDY]

not serious tag at all

[doudemoe]

[Down boy, down.]

like mine have ever been

[notsogrimreaper]

[B-But Minatooooooo it's SANTA.]

[doudemoe]

[Is that so? The "Santa" he met was...not very nice. Maybe Ryoji was lucky and met the *real* one? ...it should be weird to take Santa's actual existence in stride.]

Ah. Did he give you a present?

Re: like mine have ever been

[doudemoe]

[Santa doesn't give gifts to annoying idiots.]

Re: like mine have ever been

[notsogrimreaper]

[A-Annoying idiots? Are you implying what I think you are implying?]

[notsogrimreaper]

N-No... but he said I could come find him later, and that he'd give me presents to give to everyone!

[Seriously, bro, this one was the real deal.]

[doudemoe]

[Oh, that's right. He doesn't have any presents to give.]

I don't need anything.

[notsogrimreaper]

Minato-kun, of course you need a present! You're going to be on the nice list, and everyone on the nice list gets one!

[This is Santa law, we don't mess with it.]

[notsogrimreaper]

[Bring it. Ryoji stands his ground, continuing to glare with a bit of a scoff.]

I don't have time for a fight. I'm busy.

[zebrarhyme_everytime]

[Celestia knows it's not a gesture Zecora would make normally, but she's trying to sell this idea!]

That's an even more painful truth
For one without the vibrancy of youth.

[cruel_kindness]

I'm youthful...!

...A little!

[A pause. Then Fluttercruel shivers a little in the cold.]

Brr... Maybe I should get a cloak...

[zebrarhyme_everytime]

[Another tremor attack has the zebra reeling, though! Could he finally be on the verge of Erasing her?]

[No, she has a Croc Leisure Pin. She burns a charge of it, then slashes lines of fire through the mammoth again.]

[vexed_snake]

"Annoyed" is another good one. "Violent" is good too...

[Help isn't a thing he readily accepts, sadly.]

[vexed_snake]

You think I care about stuff like that?!

[Asakura just watches and looks a little twitchy as the Drakes seem to be holding their own this time. He wants to get personally involved so badly. Stupid rule saying he can't attack Players directly...]

[vexed_snake]

Then maybe you shouldn't have started one.

[Asakura at least manages to stop himself from attempting to deck Ryoji, because he's not interested in obtaining more healing potions should he bust up a hand again.]

[vexed_snake]

[Okay, it's time for a strategy change...or at least an attempt in stealing the strategy of a guy he fought back home. Hope you like bats, Zecora, because he's summoning Bat Noise, and in multiples.

He's clearly hoping the numbers will overwhelm and confuse her. It's Kamen Rider Knight's Trick Vent, albeit with bat monsters instead of bat-themed Riders. Close enough.]

[notsogrimreaper]

I don't know what you're talking about.

[Ryoji does his best to look innocent, smirking a bit. His yellow gloves are still wet from snow.]

[yamagishi]

It seems...like you don't have a good view on life...does it?

[Which is a shame...]

[vexed_snake]

[Nope, not buying it.]

Don't give me that.

[He is twitching, he wants to hit Ryoji so badly...]

[vexed_snake]

Can't say that I ever have. Is it really that strange?

[Not that he really cares what she thinks...but the question might give him another opportunity to be a jerk about the whole thing.]

[roadroller]

[and she will clap for him!]

Nice rapping!

... Well, I don't think anyone alive heard you, but maybe you filled the air with spirit. Encore? ♪

[She's mostly kidding though, but she'd listen if he wanted to sing another one.]

[shinbunshinobi]

Do you have a hobby besides being eternally angry?

[He's seriously worse than Mitsunari, and that takes some doing. Sasuke begins to concentrate attack on a single Drake to lower their numbers. Some of the Drake's attacks do connect when he uses Blink Step only to be where another attack is.]
