[ You remember that hilarious stunt with pink paint that Bucky then had to pain over because you're an asshole? Well, Bucky's back and with a mecha that allows him to fly right outside your window and draw a giant dick and balls with a can of shaving cream all over it.
He hopes when you came home you enjoyed every inch of that giant ass dick right in your face. ]
[He sent a text beforehand: Meet me at your house. Got something for you. Just to make sure he was around, because Riku's not gonna stand outside in Nonah for ages if he doesn't have to. It's not cold, but it's colder than Heropa, and he's not used to anything below sixty degrees (F), really.
When Kaneda opens the door he'll find Riku waiting there, leaning against a post, a plastic shopping bag dangling from one wrist. He's got a hoodie on, zipped all the way up, because he's not dealing with any sort of cold, he just isn't.]
[Sometime on the 24th Kaneda receives a box in the mail addressed to him from Akihiko Sanada. Inside is a card and a near perfectly wrapped gift. Will he open it due to impatience or wait till the 25th?]
[Here, Kaneda, have some cookies! And a scarf, even though it's not strictly necessary for Florida weather. There's also a card, thanking him for the fun Max had helping him decorate a tree.]
[Minato leaves Kaneda a gift on the dining table of Nonah 05 (since he definitely has a key by now, sorry) wrapped in reflective royal blue paper with a silver bow.
There's a plain note on it: To Kaneda, from Minato.
Inside is a box with a red fake leather jacket. He definitely didn't spend as much on it as it seems, since it's just fake leather and it's from work so he got a sweet employee discount. He'd been staring at it for months and thinking Kaneda would like it so he'd finally bought it for him for Christmas.]
[Ken isn't doing a lot for Christmas. He's getting a lot, to his surprise, which means he's going to be spending hours writing thank you cards to everybody, but he's not giving out presents to every single person he knows (like Jaime would, he knows.) However, of the people who are getting something, Kaneda's one of the top on that list.
He's not doing stuff like leaving it places or mailing it to his own house. He knocks on Kaneda's door early Christmas day, and when Kaneda opens up he has a bright red paper bag (with red tissue paper) in his hands.]
[If he'd been thinking, he never would have dared waste time reaching out, but Tetsuo's too panicked to do more than react. His powers don't seem to want to work, his body doesn't move, but his mind's racing. He casts it out as far as he can, desperately trying to find someone out there...
Despite all the horror and pain they've inflicted on each other, only one person comes to mind. And, just like that, despite all the distance that's bound to be between them... he's in.
Contact comes with a sudden, intense mix of emotions: desperation, impending doom, betrayal, dawning horror, raw terror. And against it, tiny shreds of hope and faith, all poured into one name.]
