[ayes]

miss ana! Im doing okay I guess its a little overwhelming how about you???? are you ok? there were people saying awful things about you but I didnt believe it for a second

[nanamari]

Moving so many times in such a short period is a lot to take. Do you need anything? Do you have enough food?

You're a good girl. I'm alright. Most of it wasn't true, and I think it's all cleared up now.

[ayes]

yeah Im doing okay right now it was a little stressful for everyone I guess but at least Im feeling healthy not everyones that lucky "most of it" wasnt true? what was?

[nanamari]

I took a job that I shouldn't have taken. We were told it was to protect the people of Olympia... but you can see how that actually turned out.

[ayes]

so they lied to you and they were tricking you to try to get you to help them thats not your fault! its totally theirs

DELIVERY

[underwhelms]

[ Delivered to You's residence (gosh, is it really okay for the Secret Storm project to just give out their addresses like this?! is there a PO box??) is a package that is wrapped in several layers of obnoxiously glittery red wrapping paper and tied with a golden ribbon. Why several layers? To build up the suspense, of course!

Once You finally struggles her way inside, she's going to find a modest collection of items. The first is a swath of red fabric, with a subtle but undeniable maple pattern. Alongside that is a simple silver necklace, and finally, a packaged in some parchment paper are... sticks of cinnamon?

There is also a note: ]

Dear You,

Merriest of greetings! I was chosen to pick out a few special items just for you.
The fabric is lovely, the necklace is beautiful, and the cinnamon will go well with some cider to keep you nice and warm!
I can't imagine you would have any complaints.
Please enjoy this wonderful selection, and remain cheerful this cold season.

Regards,
Secret J

[ Ana leaves a gift-wrapped package on her doorstep. Inside, there's a reindeer onesie complete with tiny antlers, a tin of homemade cookies, some assorted colorful thread, and a few yards of fancy brocade fabric. ]

[ayes]

[Oh no, this is really nice! She can definitely use a lot of this fabric! And the necklace is so pretty! And the cinnamon smells wonderful!

The necklace would have gone beautifully with her gala kimono. Ah well, there's always next year for that!]

[Weh gun mom you are the best

i cant go two feet down the street without someone trying to talk to me about how awful Olympia is
i mean get theyve got some bad blood
but is it really worth all this trouble?

[ ...It's too familiar, and he hates it. That tension, that unrest that reminds him far too much of Insomnia before the Empire came. ]

[ayes]

I guess I just dont get why they cant just like let it go??? why do you need to still be angry about all this old stuff! it just makes me feel so weird

[punshots]

yeah thats exactly it!
