[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...]]

[And she notices! She almost took a step back to prepare herself from the sound]

Ah...w-why is that? Shouldn't it be a happy holiday?

People being happy...that vexes me.

[Oh, and there is an accompanying crazy man smile, too. He's doing it deliberately in an attempt to see if he can frighten her enough to get Noise to gather...and also because he enjoys making people squirm anyway.]

[Yup, she's taking that step back now.]

I-I see...but, just...why?

Why not? I don't need a reason for anything. If I'm vexed, then that's enough.

I guess...

[And she wasn't going to argue with that either]

I just never met someone who doesn't like it, that's all.

You were bound to find one eventually.

[Clearly, he thinks he's the only one there with any sense.]

I guess but...in the meantime, I think I really should figure out where I am...

I just hope that with the holidays, everyone will be in a good mood and help me figure some things out.

I don't think anyone knows where this dump is. Figuring that out is pretty hopeless.

[He scowls.]

I'll punch the first person who tries to tell me it's the North Pole.

[Backing away again]

T-Then at least we can conclude that! But um...I wanted to ask, how long have you been here? Maybe from there, I can figure out what's going on!

Here? Just a couple of days. I don't know how much longer I can take it. Such a vexing place...

Goodness, you seem to like saying vexing a lot...

No other world really describes how I feel about life.

[Hah, "life." That was a laugh...]

But surly there's another word right? That can't be the only thing you feel...

[She's trying to help him out!]

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

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

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

[Which is a shame...]

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.]

No, I guess not, but I suppose living in a place like this would give people something to be annoyed about...

[And yet...]

[That's new, someone even slightly agreeing with him.]

I'd burn it all if I had the chance...

[But he is pretty sure the people that run the Reaper's Game wouldn't take too kindly to that...]

[Uh.................]

Don't you think that's a bit extreme? To burn everything here...what will happen once you do?

I don't care about that--I just care about how satisfying it would be while I'm doing it.

[And that wide grin is probably not at all reassuring...]

[Okay that does it]

...A-Are you trying to scare me? B-Because if you are....

[Well, what can she do anyway? There wasn't much but at least something would work!]

And what if I am?

[That grin widens and he takes a menacing step forward. He's dead and has been the bane of much better police forces than what this place likely has. There is absolutely zero fear of reprisals here.]

[STRANGER DANGER STRANGER!

Don't mind Fuuka backing away even further away from the boy compared to before]

And what do you want from me?

[He just laughs and takes another step closer. Lucky for her he can't actually do anything to her unless he wants to get kicked out of the Reaper's Game.]

Nothing, really. I'm just bored. And being bored vexes me.

[She's just that trollable isn't she?]

Then...what do you do here when you're bored? Outside of making other people scared.

[Still backing away though]
