The Santa Claus Meme

[melodiesmods]

Your character is Santa Claus!! Maybe they've taken on the job in a mall. Maybe they've found a Santa Claus outfit and forgot to read the hidden clause before putting it on. Whatever the reason, there is no escaping your duty as the official Santa Claus. Besides the kids assaulting you 24/7, you also have to deal with Heroes of Light and rumor has it they're worse than the kids.

1. Post a starter: you are Santa Claus! Try to be kind to the Heroes of Light coming to you with their lists.
2. Comment in other characters's threads: they're Santa Claus and you're the one who gets to pester them!
3. Profit!

I am very serious, I assure you. Ho ho ho.

[That last bit is added as an afterthought. Coming from Jade, it doesn't sound quite right.

He pats his knee again.]

Come on, now. I can't grant your wishes with you standing all the way over there.

...

[This is payback for those nights spent in the Crystal Caves, isn't it? How embarrassing. Nothing about this situation seems right, but...]

[With a frustrated huff, Rukia steps forward, her shoulders stiff with indignation. She holds onto his arm, staring down at his knee as she tries to figure out the best way to pull herself up.]

Hold still.

[She steps up onto the edge of his chair, hoisting herself to stand on that tiny precipice before taking a large step to the other side, and carefully settling herself down. Unless he gets impatient and just picks her up, given how light she is.]

[The pink that was in her cheeks has flooded her face, now scarlet.]

I would like a Chappy soul candy dispenser. ...Please.

[jadethenecromancer]

[...........Ah.

He didn't expect her to actually go for it.

Jade's maintaining a careful poker face while Rukia's settling into his lap. This would be easy to laugh off if it weren't for his muddled feelings about... well, her. As it is, her bright red face has him half-embarrassed, half-pleased.

Not that he'll ever admit to liking this a bit more than he should.]

Oh, how adorable~ And have you been a good girl this year?

[Just because they're both flustered doesn't mean he's missing the chance to be terrible.]

[damn_juicebox]

[It's not fair. He's better at hiding this than she is, and he has a beard too.]

I've fulfilled my duties.

[She slants a little glare at him. It's not adorable! ...Well Chappy is adorable, yes, but he's mocking her.]

And I've come to the aid of a certain someone who relentlessly insists on foolish behaviors because he believes he can handle too many issues on his own.

[jadethenecromancer]

[The beard is quite useful. Especially now, when it's concealing the fondness sneaking into his smile.]

That someone sounds like quite the handful, indeed. Although I suppose he's a lucky one as well.

[...Wait, no! Backtrack! They're not going to have one of those moments in this ridiculous situation. He has to lay it on thick now...]

In any case, I think you've more than earned your cute little present! Ho ho ho. And what do we say to Santa now?

[damn_juicebox]

[That gives her pause, as she wasn't expecting him to agree with her so readily. And is she mistaken or is that a hint of warmth in his voice? She blinks at him for a moment, and slowly, she relaxes, a little smile of her own softening her features.]

Perhaps. But not undeserving.

[She gives his hat a playful tug as soon as he resumes his...well, being Jade.]

Thank you.

[Rukia leans in a little closer, dropping her voice to a whisper.]

...And perhaps you might see fit to deliver a certain book as well. This person seemed rather eager to have me read to him from its pages.
