[There's static on the screen for a moment before it clears, and Fluttershy waves a bit shyly into the camera.]

H...H-Hello everyone, um...I...hope you're all doing well.

S-So I...I've learned a little about...Christmas, which is...coming up, right? A-And it's actually very similar to a holiday we celebrate in Equestria...wh-where I'm from. S-So I...I-I was thinking that I'd...like to give gifts to people. I-I mean if...if that's all right...

I have...some ideas for what to give people, b-but, um...i-if you wouldn't mind, could you...maybe let me know what you'd like as a gift? I...can't really promise much, but I'm...pretty good at knitting...I think...

S-So if...everyone could let me know what you'd like...I'll do my best to make it. E-Even...if you don't celebrate Christmas...or Hearth's Warming Eve like I do...I'd still like to give you something...if that's okay...

[She hesitates for a moment before turning the D-Terminal off.]

[adashofloyalty]

Awesome~! It's like having a second birthday instead of just one!

[strengthinkindness]

[She giggles a little.] If everyone's birthday was the exact same day.

Would you like to get involved too? Twilight and I are already planning on getting gifts for each other, you, and Rarity.

[adashofloyalty]

Sure! I totally wouldn't mind getting gifts for you, Twilight and Rarity.

[strengthinkindness]

[She smiles.] Great...! This is going to be so exciting!

[adashofloyalty]

Yeah! It's too bad Applejack and Pinkie Pie aren't here; we could totally show everyone here what it's like to celebrate Hearth's Warming Eve -you know, Christmas for them!- back in Ponyville.

[strengthinkindness]

Actually, I did have a friend who suggested we ask the Digimon to help...they could act out the parts...It wouldn't be exactly the same, but...

[adashofloyalty]

Yeah, I guess that could work. Having Digimon stand in for ponies could be a big help, and Digimon who can't fly could be shoe-ins for Earth ponies!

Who could we get that's as random as Pinkie...?

[happiestberry]

I'll make sure the measure out the other one then.

[Solarmon continues floating around nearby as Duo bounds up to the couch to look at the food and the shampoo. That was easy to get. He'll have to keep that in mind for later.

He pulls himself up onto the couch, careful not to knock anything over. He takes the shampoo bottle and looks it over before nodding, deciding that it'll work. It's placed next to him as he eyes the bag of food...

And it doesn't take long for his stomach to growl rather enthusiastically. His cheeks turn bright pink and he huffs as he grabs something out of the bag.]

Thanks. I mean, I guess you could have gotten here quicker, but it's good for a first try.

Maybe...you could try to be a little more grateful.

I said "thanks".

[Solarmon is just...going to sigh and hover closer to Fluttershy.]

[strengthinkindness]

[She smiles.] Sounds good.

[strengthinkindness]

I'm sure we could find someone. And if not, then we kind find someone who can at least act that way...

[Action]

[strengthinkindness]

[She smiles, somewhat embarrassed.] S-Sorry...there was a long line in the cafeteria...

[destinedforrock]

Ah - "Christmas"? Fluttershy?

[Not a familiar word to her but she quashes the inquiring look a moment and throws her head up a little with a grin.]

...Arrived just in time for the winter holidays, have we? Do fill me in, Fluttershy! If this is a gift-giving occasion upon us I would be happy to assist you in putting something together.

If of course, my. ...Skillset would be appropriate.

[fuckinstoplights]

That sounds nice. All of it. Even the food part.

What is that?

[bigsoftie]

He likes pizza...and dancing. And he likes hugs and friends and he likes pizza-like foods...

[happiestberry]

[ She smiles brighter. ]

This is going to be fun!

[acceptedburden]

It is quickly approaching, yes. December 25. You have a holiday that is around the same time where you are from, Fluttershy?

It is very kind of you to offer to get gifts for people. Are you sure that it will not be too much though?

[codes]

I could teach you sometime. [ Pause.

Because she can't believe she just openly offered that. ]

You know, because you're so helpful that I'm sure you'd share the knowledge with others. That's all!

[adashofloyalty]

Yeah! They'll have to think outside the box...or inside the chimney, as Pinkie said~

What did you want for Christmas anyway, Fluttershy?

[video]

[wheeljackofalltrades]

Seems pretty harmless. Didn't really have anythin' like that back on Cybertron.

[But he smiles, as if to reassure her that it's no big deal. And as if to help sell it, You pipes up.]

Trust me. He eats everything.

[video]

[fuhrinkaed]

Silver would look really cool on Ryudamon, too...

O-oh! Where are my manners, I should get you something too!

[badluckbabe]

Hmm~ Aren't you just the sweetest girl around?

I'd love something knitted from you dear. Whatever you're good at knitting. My favorite colors are pink, black, and dark purple.

[Action]

[alive_through_luck]

You don't have a reason to apologize to him, Miss.

[Solarmon just shoots Duo a look, but the boy doesn't seem to be paying him any mind. He is too busy scarfing down the food that's been brought to him.]

[video]

[hot_nunchaku_fury]

Uh... I don't know. My brothers and I didn't really ever have a lot of things for Christmas... so I don't know what I'd even ask for when it comes to stuff.

[strengthinkindness]

Oh yes...! It would be a lot of fun...!
