[Still no mission! But there's a couple things of note. Santa was gone yesterday, but now he's apparently come back to his house. And there might be familiar faces going into the Toy Factory. Other than that, though, there's nothing really different. It may also be of interest that there doesn't seem to be any repercussions for doing nothing yesterday...]

SANTA'S HOUSE

[xmas_fild01]

[Santa's passing some time at home, doing this and that - eating some cookies, checking his lists... Santa things. His door is open, though, if anyone would like to come for a visit. Even Players might see him glancing out the window as they're passing by.]

[shy_kindness]

[Welp. This is weird. The Flutters can't do their job if there's no missions. On the other hoof, they can enjoy yet another day off. Fluttershy's just going to be tending and/or protecting those weird gelatinous things from being harmed.]

[wonderful_mods]

[A small group of RGers is heading into the Toy Factory, headed by this Knight, and accompanied by a Thief, a Priest and a Wizard.

... They may not have had any powers or combat skills in the weeks before, but they sure act like they know what they're doing. How much trouble could a bunch of grown adults in silly RPG costumes get into by themselves?]

[leggierissimo]

[Another day without a mission~ Horribly boring, but Joshua can't say he really expected much after yesterday. Though it does give them another day to see what they can find... and that factory is pretty interesting. Horribly difficult, but interesting.

If the enemies on the first floor weren't bad enough, the second floor had definitely shown them that they needed more than just the three of them.

So, for now, Joshua is standing just inside the factory, looking for RGers, Players and Reapers alike that seem curious and willing to explore. What better time for recruiting?]

[vexed_snake]

[There's a rather surly-looking Reaper poking around the area. He seems curious enough about the factory, at least. He's spotted Joshua. Run, save yourself]

You know what this place is?

I am so sorry...

[vexed_snake]

[So, yesterday, Asakura made a snack out of one of those little blobby things...and he's decided that was some good eating. The Flutters might spot him off in the distance chasing one around with a pointy stick.]

[leggierissimo]

[Nope, he's used to this sort of thing~]

A toy factory-turned-dungeon. Fearsome challenges, wonderful treasures, enough adventure to last a lifetime~ Why, are you curious?

[shinbunshinobi]

[Now this is just plain worrisome. Two days without missions? Something is going on, and Sasuke doesn't think he likes it. Well, for now he'll get a good look of the outside of that Toy Factory.]

Hahahaha no need to be.

[shy_kindness]

[Fluttershy gasps and starts fluttering over to Asakura.]

S- sir! Um, please stop that! It isn't nice!

[hamtartarus]

[ IT'S... SANTA!111!!!1111 While she's not exactly Western the thought of getting free gifts or giving them out to more deserving people is still pretty exiciting for her. Hamuko pops in his doorway, knocking lightly to gather his attention instead of simply strolling in.

It's only polite! ]

[notsogrimreaper]

[Ryoji enters the toy factory, a bit nervous, but determined all the same. Spotting Joshua, he gives a bright smile and hurries over.]

Joshua-kun! I've been looking for you!

[Dang it, he knew he should have brought all the gifts along.]

[notsogrimreaper]

[Well, this is different. Ryoji is a little concerned with the lack of a mission, and for once, is too worried to slack off again like yesterday. He'll be rushing through the village today, stopping first at Santa's house, then at the Toy Factory. If you catch him running around, though, he may stop to chat.]

[notsogrimreaper]

[Ryoji's not going to knock. He's actually not planning to visit with Santa. He just wanted to give Santa a thank you card of his own. He tries to sneak inside and find a place to put it without attracting Santa's attention. But the jolly old man does see everything. Ryoji might be caught soon enough.]

[leggierissimo]

[Just hearing his name makes Joshua glance up from his phone. He lifts one eyebrow, tilting his head just slightly.]

You have?

[notsogrimreaper]

Yeah! Where were you yesterday? I was waiting in the lobby, but you didn't show up.

[xmas_fild01]

[Santa looks up at the knock and gets to his feet.]

Ho ho ho! Who's there? Well, never mind, come on inside if you like!

[leggierissimo]

... mm, well, I was fairly preoccupied yesterday.

[notsogrimreaper]

Really? There was no mission mail. I can't believe you're even busy on breaks!

[xmas_fild01]

[Oh, he sees. But he also sees how sneaky Ryoji is trying to be, so he'll humor it for a moment, turning his back and humming a Christmas tune.]

[vexed_snake]

If there's a fight involved, maybe. This place has gotten boring fast.

[notsogrimreaper]

[Oh yeah! He's doing great! He's like a secret agent! He tiptoes over to a little cabinet, slips the card onto the desk, and then starts sneaking back out the door. Look, he's almost home free and Santa's still humming!]

[vexed_snake]

[Oh, it's the pony with the freaky stare. How vexing. Asakura remembers that all too well, which is why he hasn't immediately started threatening the Flutters with his pointy stick.]

Can't a guy grab a bite to eat in peace?

[Way to confirm your ill intentions towards the blob-thing, Asakura. At least the distraction has given the critter he's chasing a chance to get away.]

[leggierissimo]

I was exploring, actually.

[leggierissimo]

Well, I daresay you'll find one in there. It's fairly difficult, though. Groups are recommended.

[shy_kindness]

Eat?

[Fluttershy gives a quick aside glance to the poor cute critter.]

Oh, my, no! There's, um, a restaurant I can take you to.
