How do you usually celebrate? Gifts, obviously.

Uh, it kind of depends on whether or not you're religious and which you follow, but whenever my crew and I would celebrate, we would hang twinkly lights and sometimes a Tenenbaum. And we'd wrap the presents and set them underneath it.

I suppose most cultures find excuses to give each other gifts. Generosity... is always a virtue.

[chaos_magnet]

Does that mean you'll celebrate with me?

It would be an honor to celebrate with you, if you are inviting me. I may not celebrate myself, but I do accept invitations from friends.

Great. Then I think we should exchange one gift and maybe do something Christmas eve.

I will plan for it then. A gift—when is Christmas Eve?

[chaos_magnet]

December twenty-fourth, sooo [ checks the calendar ] two-ish weeks. Falls on a Friday this year.

[ Or so James is assuming, going by an official means of labeling time. ]

I'll plan for it then. It will be nice to have something pleasant to look forward to. It's uncommon enough.

Wrap?
