[Well.

This is definitely A Time to get a message like this in his inbox. He'd love to be Smart Gladion about this and handle it strategically, but Smart Gladion has been lying face-down in his room for about a week now.]

Did someone put you up to this? I won't do anything if they did, I just want to know.

[Weird Gladion is on the phones rn.]

no?
no one fuckin dared me i need to get her a present or fake santa will get my ass

[what the fuck.]

You're her Secret Santa?

[fucking hell.]

And let me guess, you weren't given any information about her.

why would santa give me any information other than her network username something that can easily and at any time be changed
see i did it right now

so no i know literally nothing
the fact that she is a she is completely new information

[Subtle, isn't she.

Smart Gladion would delay this reply. Weird Gladion is tired and annoyed.]

Great. Don't bother with any more cold calls, Lusamine is my mother. What kind of presents are you looking at?

[ This information is helpful. It's more than helpful, it's the fucking jackpot, which is why she changes her username back as a show of good faith. ]

whoa you serious?
thats crazy youre the first person i even asked

i dont know
i didnt even know moms could show up here
whats she like?

[god fuck this was a mistake.

This one comes delayed a few minutes.]

Potentially dangerous if she thinks you have something she wants. I know "secret" is in the name but if you end up in contact with her, stay on your toes.

Also, I don't know exactly where she lives, but I know some people who might.

[ In contrast, hers is instant. ]

wait hold on
what the hell do you mean dangerous?
i know everyones a fucking monster but

[ Oh. Ohhhh. ]

shes not the nice kind of mom huh

[Nnnnnnnnrgh urge to bite rising. And then falling. ]

I mean that she acts like there are three types of people in the world: people who might be useful to her someday, people who are useful to her right now, and people who shouldn't exist anymore. I don't think turning into a monster has improved any of that.

[Hit send. Realize, oh my god, why am I venting, this is jumping the rails really fast. How about we don't.]

She's hard to shop for on a budget, and if it's too spot-on she might suspect I was involved. Let me think for a minute.

wow she sounds like shit

[ What's...she supposed to... She's not good at being nice or comforting, and she hasn't figured out if using text primarily makes that more or less hard. It means she can't bore into someone, try to figure them out...but that isn't something most people do, anyway. Maybe this is better, because they can't see her try to take them apart, piece by piece. ]

i could just give her a piece of coal
a real holiday fuck you
theres nothing in that secret santa thing that says i have to say who i am

[fuck] If she got a non-gift she would assume I was involved, and she does know where I live. We had a run-in a few days ago.

[He will not examine how genuinely uncomfortable that makes him and how he feels realizing that he kind of has to press this, that Ingo and Emmet and Mukuro and even Chiaki all very quickly swore themselves to secrecy but he still needs to be careful with this and can't afford to be...like this about it.

Fuck.]

I had to deal with something similar for my Santa assignment. Go for polite, classy, but generic. Candy/snack samplers are good value for cost. Avoid red or black packaging.

[ Jesus fuck. ]

she has a problem with COLORS?

shit alright
ill throw in one of those little trinkets from the market for good measure so she thinks someone actually spent time thinking about it

[fuck!!!] No she doesn't have problems with colors but like I said I ran into her a few days ago and I've worn a lot of black so there's a chance she'd get paranoid about it.

[fuuuuuuck stop making him think about how weird this is!!]

Alright. Thanks. If it runs you over budget I can pay you the difference.

dont worry about it i live with a guy who owns half the city
seriously

[ She has half a mind to say...something, specifically, but doing that would draw attention back to her outburst under the influence off the haze. Her fingers hover over her laptop keys, an invisible timer counting down in her mind. ]

sorry about all this by the way
i know it sucks to talk about
wont bring her up again

[f u c k]

Do bring it up if anything happens. Or if she gives you trouble for any other reason. I want to keep an eye out.

well yeah duh
i just meant if you dont ask i wont start yapping about her
thats for you to decide not me

i dont really know what she looks like though
old st nick didnt think it was important

Long blond hair, green eyes, thin. [there is a strong family resemblance] She's a faerie, white carapace, long antennae. Also tends to wear white with gold or black accents. Acts formal and sort of delicate.

[ yeah she notes that ] got it buzzers and shimmers and smells like bullshit its her

[Struck by the feeling, again, that he's made a mistake.]

Don't make trouble for her on purpose.

im not gonna thatd just be stupid

Cool.

[And as Tired and Emo as he is right now, he's content to leave it there unless she's got anything else to say.
