seetheflower[ Today you'll see a definitely more cheerful Menma, who waves at the screen frantically. She's sitting on the couch, with all her Pokémon plopped around her, either asleep or loofing around - her Ponyta is safely sitting on the floor at her feet. Her Petilil is perched on the girl's head. ]
Merry merry Christmas, everyone!!! [ Obligatory shout to the network. Did you miss happy Menma, guys? ]
I hope you're not hurt, after what happened. It was very scary, but we're all okay now! And Santa came to visit me, but I couldn't see him because I fell asleep! [ And there she pouts, seriously disappointed in herself for not being able to stay up. ] But he left me something under my bed! Look at this!
[ From below the screen, she picks up what looks like a white egg with some colored spots.
Menma places it on her lap. ]
He gave me a Nokémon! Does any of you know what it is? Don't tell me, though, I want it to be surprise! Just tell me if you think I'm gonna like it! ... Now that I know about it, Santa should know what I like after all!
[ Hmmm... she hums briefly, thinking of what to say next. ] ... Ah! And I also made some cookies for everyone! I only followed a recipe [ which she couldn't read well ], but I think they came out fantastic! If you want them, come here at the Breeding Centre in Goldenrod and you'll get them. I'll be waiting for you, ok? Love you all!
[ With a last wave, she turns the camera off. ]

Date: 2012-12-26 02:48 am (UTC)I wonder just how many people found eggs beside them. [
Merry Christmas, miss Menma. [He doesn't know the girl too well. Clearly this means more bonding with housemates is required.]
[assuming he would at least know her name and have seen her around a bit after having been here two weeks, if that's alright][action]
Date: 2012-12-26 06:42 pm (UTC)Of course that's okay!]If they were good all year, then Santa must have given them something too. [ A biiig grin at the guy. And clearly, bonding with people is the thing she likes to do best. ] You were good as well, weren't you?

Date: 2012-12-28 02:01 am (UTC)...Not that I'm complaining.
[He tucks his egg into the crook of his elbow, and glances towards each of Menma's Pokemon, repeating "Merry Christmas" as he smiles at each of them.]
Do you celebrate this holiday at home?

Date: 2012-12-28 10:04 pm (UTC)Yeah! My family used to celebrate it every year, and I always got the best gifts.
[ Used to... haha... ]

Date: 2013-01-02 04:55 am (UTC)That's nice to hear. I don't think Christmas exists in my own world, but I rather like the sound of these traditions.
[Or what he understands them to be, at least. He understands them pretty well.
...He thinks he understands them pretty well. I mean, he researched them awfully thoroughly. It'd be bad if he messed up something important about how to celebrate a day that so many people know so well...
....fitting in is hard.] Erm. I hope the gifts I've sent are of the right sort.

Date: 2013-01-09 01:57 pm (UTC)I'm glad. I'd been concerned they would be too trivial a gesture, but I don't yet know anyone here well enough to think of what they'd really like.

Date: 2013-01-11 12:29 am (UTC)Oh, it's ok! I only made cookies for people, see? [ She points at the jar with... questionably shaped, half-burned cookies inside. ] I didn't know what they liked, so I couldn't make presents, uu-.
