Kyoka: "He comes into houses, yes? Then I will make sure he dosn't escape." *pulls out taser*
atsushi: ._. k-kyouka...
Kyoka: "Don't worry, I was thorough. I even put traps into the bathroom."
atsushi: but what if I have to do my business at night?!

kirako:..? kyouka? are you ok?
atsushi: well...
Kyoka: -3- "I was unable to apprehend the Santa."
kirako:...*blinks*
Kyoka: "Not one trap worked. I mean, I captured Atsushi, but that's pretty easy."
atsushi: good thing I can regenerate TT3TT
Kyoka: "I said I was sorry." *holds up a wrapped box*
atsushi: TTuTT;
Naomi: oh, there you guys are! we got presents!

-a person with long white hair smiles at them-
Atsushi: "???" *stares* "...Just...looking..."
???: for something to give them?? hmm...*hands them a pair of gemstones* its not much, but I'm sure they will appreciate it. ^^

Atsushi: OwO "...'Man'?"
???: in the bandages....do you really thing what he desires most is something of the material world?
Atsushi: "...I mean, I had ideas of something...if not for him than maybe...Um...I-I don't know..."

sylvia:...l-l-look! *hands her one of the gemstones*
Kyoka: *shiny eyes* "Ooooo...Sylvia, it's beautiful." *smiles*
sylvia: s-santa gave them to us!
Kyoka: "..." *sets down the gem* "Which way did he go?"
sylvia: I-I don't know, they just vanished.......santa was way more androgynous than I thought.
yosano:...u..huh...
Kyoka: *shakes her fist* "Next year, Santa...Next year."
atsushi:...say, where is dazai? I wanted to talk to him.
Kunikida: "He said something about 'tying up loose ends'-- ...Oh, sprinkles." *runs to his apartment*
*breeze is felt through an open window*
Dazai: *pops up behind Atsushi* "??? Where did Kunikida run off to?"
atsushi: back to the apartments I think... *hoists dazai in*
Dazai: "UMPH!" *crashes face-first onto the floor* "...Well, I was just there--was fixing the blinds in the baby's nursery, tying up loose ends--"
atsushi: oh.. ^^;
Dazai: *looks around* "Looks like everyone got their gifts..."
atsushi:...almost....*sigh*....
Dazai: "??? What's wrong? I haven't seen you all day."
atsushi:...I was trying to find a gift for you, but in the end, I couldn't find anything.....what is it you want for Christmas?
Dazai: "..." *smiles, holds up two bottles* "Look what I got from Kunikida's desk drawer."
atsushi:....dazai, please...I just want to know so I could...I dunno...make you feel a bit better? I guess?
Dazai: "..." *sits down, grabs two glasses, pours drinks into each one* "Sit."
atsushi: *takes a seat*
Dazai: *hands him a drink* "Tell me something--you happy with this year?"
atsushi:...yeah, I guess so. we've got a new member, and things seem to be doing well for the agency.
Dazai: "..." *smiles* "Good. That's enough..."
atsushi: ??
Dazai: ^w^ "If you're happy, I'm happy. And that's a pretty good gift."
atsushi:....I guess so.... (still....)
odasaku:....don't try to force it. let him open up when he feels like it. then just listen, let him vent. ok?
atsushi:...(ok)
Dazai: *looks at the Christmas lights...smiles* "Here's hoping we're doing this again next year."
atsushi: yeah...merry Christmas.
