[ in the morning, zuriel appears to be in whoville, picking up some hot cocoa from one of the stalls. but they do seem to realize wisadel is there, so they wave. ]
Christmas...? We have a Winter Festival, but nothing called that.
[she's also getting hot cocoa, and probably unsurprisingly, she's not very warmly dressed. short shorts over tights, a cropped tank under her jacket, and boots.]
Well yes? That's winter for you. Unless you're used to a much warmer climate, which given what you've said that's possible.
[ they will make her nice and cozy... ]
It isn't for everyone. I know people who don't celebrate it where I'm from either. Not everyone believes in the religious lore associated with, but some people like the spirit of giving gifts and spending time with people.
That's where we differ, I think. We never really made a big deal of it at my house, but there were usually presents. The phones still rang a lot during the day though, so people were working the lines on and off.
[ that's a start and better than half the game. so when they arrived at the tree they just sort of drop straight down to the ground and begin sifting through presents before they find a small one and wiggling it at her. ]
You think I had time to do that? Of course not, this is just Christmas magic. [ they are obviously kidding, but they also pull out a small box for themselves. ] Why else would there be one for me, too?

[she looks down at the ends of the scarf. what is this for. what.]
no subject
[ they look at her for a moment before looping the ends over the opposite shoulders so she's wearing it loosely but properly. ]
Winters are usually cold.
no subject
[no it's just that you kept spice tolerance bc it was funny but you're not durable in the cold now girl
they may loop the scarf without her ducking out of it, though.]
I wouldn't say it's too cheery, just that I never bothered much with it?

no subject
[casual, matter of fact. she's unbothered by it, that's just how she grew up.]
Or much of an opportunity for it when you're working battlefields. Just never got in the habit.

[ there's a pause. ]
Have you checked under the tree yet?
no subject
[makes sense, that's probably why she wouldn't get it.]
-what for?
no subject
Come on, trust me.
no subject
[following after them! off to the tree.
she probably knows about presents going under them but why would she be looking at them herself.]
no subject
Look what I found. [ a present? for her? gasp. ]
no subject
[she takes it from them, squinting down at the present...]
Oh, you snuck it in just now, huh? Cute.
