Soooo--
[Axel shows up on screen and from what you should be able to see, he hasn't got anything on from the waist up. Not like this bothers him. At least not too much.]
A quick question.
[He shrugs and after a beat turns around to show someone's red coat in his hand instead.]
Who ever thought this many buttons would ever pass as a fashion trend?

It's just a little contagious, so Yukari grins a bit too, though she thinks those suggestions are pretty immature -- and if they ever were in style, they probably went out a long time ago.]
Heh. Maybe people grew out of it.
As much as I hate to say it, I'm pretty sure this was a genuine attempt at Christmas . . . and not just a prank.

[Sighs and shrugs]
Yeah? What makes you think that? Did you see who pulled this all off?
video;
. . . Nah. But I did see something kinda weird when I got my own package. Or at least, I think I did.

Re: video;
I don't suppose you saw something that looked like a giant lobster, walking around the plaza. I thought I was seeing things, since it was only for a second -- but in a place like Vatheon, I can never really tell.
video;
Think it might've been Sandy Claws?
[Oh-ho-ho-ho, Axel, you sleigh me.]
video;
She just got it, and is mentally facepalming so hard. Outwardly though, she just rolls her eyes slightly.]
If it was, I'm a little surprised we all managed to miss him taking our stuff.
[And by a little, she means a lot.]
video;
Well, that's the point, right? He's supposed to slip away without being seen. Otherwise there's not much fun to Christmas, is there?
video;
[Her tone is . . . flat, just short of suspicious. As if maybe he should be a bit more up in arms about this, for such a fiery guy.]
video;
[Don't go pointing fingers at him, now. B|]
video;
The natives have caused more trouble than Axel ever had. In Vatheon, at least.]
Maybe Lloyd's got your coat.
[She shrugs, conceding.]

[. . . The metal chains also would've stuck out, she imagines. But she continues.]
It also had buttons. Kinda like Lloyd's, but not nearly as many. Yours had a zipper instead, didn't it?
video;
I'm not into the button thing.
[Zippers are where it's at, girl!]
Thanks for the tip at any rate.
video;
Like I said, someone'll turn up with it.
[There's a pause as she glances somewhere off screen, and then back at the camera.]
I probably oughta get going, though.
video;
[He shrugs as well.]
I trust your holiday will go swimmingly.
video;
[Looking rather unimpressed as she corrects him. He's never called her that before . . . but then again, she's never even spoken with this Axel before, really.
Pretty inconvenient when someone doesn't remember you, huh . . . ? But that's the way it goes sometimes. At least him calling her that had given her a chance to give him her proper name.]
video;
[But he doesn't say anything more about that, because Axel also knows that girls have a thing with temper.]
Good to meet you anyway.
video;
. . . Or, to be more accurate in this case, she's side-eying him and moving on.]
Yeah . . . you, too.
[Pausing, giving him a bit of a suspicious look, and then --]
See ya later.
