**[00:00] U**
Come on, Hanadori. Get out of there already.
**[00:04] U**
It's time to go teach the little kids.
**[00:06] U**
Even you, a shy boy who's awkward around girls
and covered in dark god of destruction juice,
**[00:11] U**
should be able to handle some kids.
***SIGN*** Sigh
**[00:14] H**
Must be nice to be the guy
who got on the student council!
**[00:18] H**
Life is so easy for you!
**[00:21] K**
*After all the chaos he caused,*
**[00:22] ---**
* Hanadori-kun lost the student*
* council elections miserably.*
***SIGN*** S H O C K
**[00:26] K**
* The only new electee was Tsukimiya-kun,*

**[00:31] K**
*Hanadori-kun's jealousy was a thing to behold.*
**[00:36] H**
I can feel it. Miguel's coming.
**[00:38] H**
He's about to go out of control.
**[00:40] H**
You guys are lucky.
**[00:41] ---**
You can be on the student council because
you don't have the world to protect.
**[00:45] H**
Come on down here, Gestöber.
**[00:48] H**
Ditch that jerk of a wannabe genius
and we can make our own secret base.
**[00:51] H**
Hey.
**[00:52] M**
Come on out, Kabu-dono.
**[00:54] M**
You're causing problems for Koyukichi-dono.
**[00:56] K**
* Good grief... I'd love to*
* just leave him in there,*
**[01:00] K**
* but since we're in the same group,*
* I'll get in trouble if he doesn't do the work.*
**[01:04] Chi**
It's Miguel-oniichan!
**[01:06] H**
You're...
**[01:07] Chi**
You came to see me at my preschool?
**[01:10] H**
Oh, you're the girl from the restaurant.
**[01:12] H**
Have you been well?
**[01:14] Chi**
Yup!
**[01:15] Chi**
I was hoping I'd get to see you again!
**[01:19] Chi**
Tell me all about hell, okay?
**[01:21] Chi**
And let's eat lunch together!
**[01:25] H**
Okay! Gather around, everyone!
**[01:28] H**
Come play with Miguel-oniichan!
**[01:31] K**
*A complete 180!*
**[01:32] H**
Come play with Miguel-oniichan!
**[01:33] K**
*Now he's in a great mood.*
**[01:35] K**
*Well, it's better than him pouting.*

**[03:15] Kids**
Let's play, Onii-chan!
**[03:16] Kids**
Let's play!
**[03:18] K**
*What do I do?*
**[03:19] K**
*I don't know how to talk to kids!*
**[03:21] U**
Hello there.
**[03:23] U**
My name is Utsugi.
**[03:25] Kid**
I'm Masato!
**[03:26] U**
Masato-kun, huh?
**[03:28] U**
That's a cool name.
**[03:29] U**
Okay, let's go to the playroom.
**[03:31] K**
*I see!*
**[03:32] U**
Follow me!
**[03:32] K**
*First, you put yourself on their level...*
**[03:36] H**
*I refuse to lose to Tsukimiya.*
**[03:38] K**
*You're still mad about that?*
**[03:41] K**
*Give it up and face facts.*
**[03:43] K**
*You shouldn't act like that in front of kids.*
**[03:46] Kids**
Oh, wow!
**[03:48] M**
Easy, right?
**[03:50] Kids**
Yup!
**[03:50] M**
Now you give it a try.
**[03:53] Kids**
* Even Mogami-kun the social*
* reject is doing well...*
**[03:56] H**
*I won't lose to Mogami, either!*
**[03:59] K**
*Why, though?*
**[04:00] K**
*He didn't get on the student council, either!*
**[04:02] Tanaka**
Hello!
**[04:03] Tanaka**
Goodbye!
**[04:03] Kids**
That's so neat!
**[04:04] H**
*Not Tanaka, either!*
**[04:05] K**
*Who is Tanaka?!*
**[04:06] K**
*Are you just mad at everyone?*
**[04:08] H**
So Tsukimiya headed to the playroom?
**[04:10] H**
Let's follow him.
**[04:11] H**
Heh heh heh!
**[04:13] Kids**
Heh heh heh...
**[04:14] K**
*Is this okay?*
**[04:16] Teacher**
Oh, Koyuki-kun!
**[04:18] Teacher**
Could you help me for a second?
***SIGN*** Home Ec Room
**[04:23] K**
So I'm making the cakes?
**[04:24] Teacher**
We're having a surprise party for the
kids with December birthdays at lunch.
**[04:29] Teacher**
I was hoping you could do the decorating
and write little messages for them.
**[04:33] K**
Th-That's a big job...
**[04:35] K**
I've never done this before.
**[04:37] Teacher**
Don't worry, don't worry!
**[04:39] Teacher**
I'll help you.
**[04:42] Kid**
Sensei!
**[04:43] Teacher**
What's wrong, Takkun?
**[04:44] Kid**
I'm not playing with Yu-kun anymore!
**[04:46] Kid**
I hate him!
**[04:49] Teacher**
Goodness... What happened?
**[04:53] K**
*It's hard being in preschool.*
**[04:55] K**
*Was I like that?*
**[04:58] K**
*Yeah, there's always fighting.*
**[04:58] H**
I'm never talking to you again! I hate you!
**[05:00] K**
*I remember "I'll never talk to you again!"*
**[05:02] H**
Listen to this, Gestöber!
**[05:03] K**
*It was you?!*
**[05:05] H**
Tsukimiya's a meanie!
**[05:06] K**
*Why are you so unstable?*
**[05:09] K**
*What happened?*
**[05:10] H**
Tsukimiya is stealing away
all my hopes and dreams!
**[05:15] (Flashback) Chi**
Look! I can walk on stilts now!
**[05:18] (Flashback) Chi**
You're amazing, Utsugi-oniichan!
**[05:20] (Flashback) Chi**
I'm going to marry you!
**[05:24] K**
* Tsukimiya-kun, you didn't need to*
* trample Hanadori-kun's pride like that...*
**[05:28] M**
You're a very noisy man.
**[05:30] M**
How long have you even known Tsukimiya-dono?
**[05:34] M**
If you can reject him so readily, Kabu-dono,
**[05:37] M**
you'll never reach the heights that
Koyukichi-dono and I have attained.
**[05:41] K**
*Sorry, I reject you, too.*
**[05:45] Teacher**
Now, now...
**[05:47] Teacher**
Takkun, Hanadori-kun,
**[05:49] Teacher**
we all have things we don't
like about each other.
**[05:52] Teacher**
But you know what makes your friends special
better than anyone else, don't you?
**[05:57] Teacher**
Remember how excited you were to make
Yu-kun a surprise present for his birthday?
**[06:03] Kid**
I don't wanna anymore.
**[06:05] Teacher**
Do you remember the day you became friends?
**[06:08] Teacher**
The first time he talked to you.
**[06:11] Teacher**
The first time you went
on adventures together.
**[06:13] Teacher**
The first time you told someone,
"He's my friend."
**[06:18] Teacher**
Didn't that make you happy?
**[06:20] Teacher**
Didn't everything seem bright and shiny?
**[06:25] H**
I've known Tsukimiya since preschool.
**[06:29] H**
The day I first met him...
**[06:36] K**
*You don't remember?!*
**[06:38] Teacher**
I don't know why you were fighting,
**[06:42] Teacher**
but if you want to talk to him again,
**[06:45] Teacher**
you just need a little bit of courage.

Hey.
**[06:52] (Flashback) U**
Are you just going to stand there
until someone talks to you?
**[06:57] (Flashback) U**
If you want to be friends with someone,
say the words of courage.
**[07:01] (Flashback) H**
"The words of courage!"
**[07:02] (Flashback) U**
No, I mean...
**[07:07] H**
My head...
**[07:09] H**
Tsukimiya always understood me.
**[07:12] H**
He was always there for young
Sturmhut before he met Gestöber.
**[07:20] (Flashback) U**
Are you okay, Hanadori?
***SIGN*** Shake
**[07:21] (Flashback) ---**
Tsukimiya!
**[07:22] (Flashback) U**
Are you okay, Hanadori?
***SIGN*** Shake
**[07:25] (Flashback) U**
Listen. You have a special power.
**[07:28] (Flashback) H**
Special power... awaken...
**[07:30] (Flashback) U**
I'll do whatever Tsukimiya-kun tells me to!
**[07:34] K**
*You were brainwashed?*
**[07:36] H**
Then, in high school...
**[07:38] (Flashback) U**
That guy, Koyuki Seri-kun,
was your partner in a previous life.
**[07:43] K**
*The cause of it all!*
**[07:45] H**
If it weren't for Tsukimiya, I'd...
**[07:47] K**
*If it weren't for Tsukimiya-kun, I'd...*
**[07:50] H**
I need your help, Gestöber.
**[07:52] Kids**
Thank you for the meal!
**[07:54] Teacher**
Everyone, we have a surprise cake today!
**[07:59] Kids**
Cake?!
**[08:00] Kids**
What for?!
**[08:01] K**
H-Happy birthday to everyone born in December!
**[08:05] Kids**
Yay!
**[08:07] H**
And... And this is for Tsukimiya!
***SIGN*** Ta-
***SIGN*** da!
**[08:11] H**
I asked Gestöber to make it for me.
**[08:15] H**
It's spelled wrong, though...
***SIGN*** Tsukimiya Utsugi
**[08:17] H**
Your birthday is December 12th, right?
**[08:20] H**
Happy birthday, Tsukimiya.
**[08:22] H**
And...
**[08:25] H**
Congratulations on getting
onto the student council.
**[08:28] H**
I can't do anything to help you,
**[08:29] H**
but I'm sure you're better
suited for it than me.
***SIGN*** Tsukimiya Utsugi
**[08:32] H**
Do your best.
**[08:34] U**
You're not mad anymore, Hanadori?
**[08:36] H**
O-Of course not.
**[08:38] H**
I hope we can still be friends.
**[08:40] U**
Sure. Thanks, Hanadori!
**[08:46] H**
It... It actually really hurt
to be in a fight with you!
**[08:52] U**
You never change, Hanadori.
**[08:57] K**
*I bet he's manipulated you your whole life.*

**[09:02] (Flashback) H**
Um, Tsukimiya-kun...
**[09:06] (Flashback) H**
Be my friend.
**[09:09] U**
I couldn't help recalling it.
**[09:12] U**
Hanadori was so cute when he was little.
**[09:16] H**
D-Dummyhead! You're making me blush!
**[09:18] K**
*Dum... Oh, forget it.*
**[09:20] ---**
*What was that all about?*
**[09:24] K**
* Will the day ever come when I look back*
* on meeting these guys with nostalgia?*
**[09:31] K**
* It's not exactly something*
* I want to remember...*
**[09:35] U**
Oh, by the way, Seri-kun...
**[09:37] U**
We were reviewing the work
the student council does,
**[09:40] U**
and we all decided we should
let the runner-up join, too.
**[09:45] U**
I could use the help...
**[09:47] K**
*What? No!*
**[09:49] K**
*If I do that, it'll happen again...*
**[09:50] H**
Gestöber, you traitor!
**[09:53] K**
*Hanadori-kun will throw another fit.*
**[09:55] ---**
N-No, I can't...
**[09:57] U**
So since you were the runner-up,
Hanadori, why not join?
**[10:00] H**
Me? Really?
**[10:02] H**
What should I do?
**[10:04] H**
I came in second?
**[10:06] H**
I got more votes than Gestöber?
**[10:10] H**
I feel kind of bad...
**[10:12] H**
Will he be jealous?
**[10:14] H**
If everyone finds out that he
got fewer votes than I did...
**[10:18] H**
Still, only the chosen can participate.
**[10:22] H**
I hate to say it,
**[10:24] H**
but I did get more votes...
**[10:26] H**
But, you know, I'm glad
I worked up the courage to run.
**[10:31] H**
Effort doesn't always pay off, tho—
**[10:35] K**
You bastards!
***SIGN*** Hahahaha
**[10:36] K**
Why are you so damn cocky?!
You act like you just slew an ogre!
**[10:39] K**
Tsukimiya! Why'd you look
at me when you said that?!
**[10:39] M**
Please slay this ogre too, Koyukichi-dono!
**[10:42] K**
You jerk! Moron! Asshole! Screw you!
**[10:42] ---**
Take off this worthless ogre's head!
**[10:47] H**
Gestöber!
**[10:49] H**
Please, hear me out!
**[10:51] H**
I'm sorry!
**[10:53] H**
I'm so sorry I hurt you! I didn't realize you
wanted to be on the student council so badly!
**[10:59] H**
Don't worry, Gestöber! You have value!
**[11:03] H**
Even if nobody else votes for you, I will!
**[11:07] H**
So please, Gestöber!
**[11:10] H**
Tsukimiya...
**[11:12] ---**
Sometimes words of courage
don't get across, huh?
**[11:16] U**
That's right, Hanadori.

Dec. 24th
**[11:24] H**
Pathetic.
**[11:26] H**
Becoming mere cattle,
brainwashed and manipulated...
**[11:30] H**
Nothing more than sheeple.
**[11:32] H**
If you want to celebrate the birth
of a god, celebrate mine instead.
**[11:36] U**
What? You're not going, Hanadori?
**[11:38] U**
Seri-kun's looking forward to it.
**[11:41] Sumiso**
Um, are you going to the
Christmas party too, Koyuki-kun?
**[11:45] K**
Y-Yeah.
**[11:48] K**
Are you, Sumiso-san?
**[11:49] Sumiso**
Yup!
**[11:52] K**
* I already bought something*
* for the gift exchange, but...*
**[11:56] K**
*What should I do?*
**[11:59] K**
*Would this look good on Sumiso-san?*
**[12:03] K**
* Since I didn't get to give her a*
* birthday present thanks to them...*
**[12:07] K**
*No, maybe it's better if I don't.*
**[12:11] K**
* Maybe getting something*
* specially for her would be creepy.*
**[12:14] K**
*And, actually...*
**[12:16] K**
*Is she even coming today?*
**[12:20] News**
* It's Christmas Eve, and snow storms*
* are blowing all across Japan...*
**[12:24] K**
* Today's the Christmas party*
* that Tsukimiya-kun suggested...*
**[12:28] ---**
* or probably just forced through*
* the student council.*
**[12:32] K**
*Oh, jeez...*

Please, sell me a Black Santa outfit!

I need Koyukichi-dono to wear it!
**[12:47] K**
*Mogami-kun, what are you doing?*
**[12:47] Man**
Sir, this is a yakiniku shop!
We don't have those!
**[12:52] M**
What?!
**[12:53] M**
You don't know the legend of Black Santa?
**[12:55] M**
Black Santa Claus visits
bad little girls and boys
**[12:59] ---**
and gives them awful things
like rocks or bloody intestines...
**[13:03] M**
or even beats them with his sack!
**[13:06] M**
I'm a bad boy! So I need a Black Santa
outfit for Koyukichi-dono!
**[13:11] K**
*Hey, stop that!*
**[13:13] K**
* Do you always shout my*
* name in public like that?*
**[13:13] M**
Please! For Koyukichi-dono!
**[13:16] K**
* Also, why would a yakiniku*
* place sell Santa outfits?*
**[13:17] M**
Please!
**[13:22] M**
I smell Koyukichi-dono!
**[13:23] M**
He's close!
**[13:25] K**
*How can you tell at this distance?!*
**[13:27] K**
*You're scary!*
**[13:30] K**
*Starting over!*
**[13:32] K**
*Today's the Christmas party.*
**[13:33] K**
*I was just hoping to see Sumiso-san...*
**[13:37] K**
*But I can't drag my feet like this!*
**[13:39] K**
* Sumiso-san is popular with regular*
* guys who are constantly looking*
**[13:44] ---**
* for a way to get closer to her,*
* but don't have the guts to do it.*
**[13:48] K**
*I can tell!*
**[13:50] K**
*I have to tell her how I feel...*
**[13:55] Sumiso**
This is for me?
**[13:56] Sumiso**
A Christmas present! How wonderful!
**[14:00] Sumiso**
Do you... like me, Koyuki-kun?
**[14:09] Sumiso**
Koyuki-kun...
**[14:12] K**
*...and get her to realize it!*
**[14:17] K**
Hibiki-kun?!
***SIGN*** Careful
Snowblowing
**[14:22] Hibiki**
I got snowblown by a snowblower!
**[14:25] K**
*How does that even happen?*
**[14:26] Hibiki**
I knew nobody liked me!
**[14:29] Hibiki**
I got Helius-blown!
**[14:30] Hibiki**
My present for the gift exchange is ruined!
**[14:33] Hibiki**
I was looking forward to
my first Christmas party!
**[14:37] Hibiki**
I don't have the right to participate...
**[14:40] Hibiki**
I'm a grim reaper, after all.
**[14:42] ---**
If I go, the cake will spoil,
and everyone will be cursed.
**[14:46] Hibiki**
I'm a grim reaper, after all.
**[14:47] K**
*You don't have to get all poetic...*
**[14:50] Hibiki**
My mommy told me Santa doesn't
come to our house, either.
**[14:55] K**
Here, Hibiki-kun. Take it.
**[14:58] K**
For the gift exchange.
**[15:01] Hibiki**
But Senpai, this is...
**[15:03] K**
I bought extra.
**[15:05] Hibiki**
Are you sure?
**[15:08] ---**
Go have fun.
**[15:10] K**
See you later!
**[15:13] K**
*I know that's what I said...*
**[15:15] K**
*But what will I do for the gift exchange now?*
**[15:19] K**
*Well, I've still got Sumiso-san's gift...*
**[15:22] K**
* Anyway, I need to get going*
* before I run into any more trouble.*
**[15:25] Man**
Hey, wake up!
**[15:26] Woman**
Are you okay?
**[15:27] Suzuran**
Where is Utsugi-sama?
**[15:30] K**
Mogami-san?
**[15:31] K**
What are you doing? Where is your coat?
**[15:33] Man**
You know her?
**[15:34] Man**
Good, good.
**[15:36] Suzuran**
I saw Utsugi-sama walking
with a middle-aged woman
**[15:38] Suzuran**
and ran out of the house.
**[15:40] K**
You'd better hurry home and
warm up before you get sick!
**[15:44] Suzuran**
I have to go.
**[15:45] K**
You can't!
**[15:47] Suzuran**
You understand, don't you, Koyuki Seri?
**[15:49] Suzuran**
I have to see him today.
**[15:51] Suzuran**
Even if he's seeing someone else.
**[15:57] K**
Then at least wear this.
**[16:01] K**
I'm in a hurry!
**[16:02] K**
Bye! Go home soon!
**[16:07] K**
*What do I do?*
**[16:08] K**
*I don't have time to go buy anything else.*
**[16:11] K**
*I need to at least get to the party...*
**[16:13] K**
*I want to see Sumiso-san!*
**[16:16] K**
*I fell into a hole!*
**[16:17] K**
*What is this? Someone help!*
**[16:19] K**
*I can't get out!*
**[16:22] K**
*Why does this always happen to me?*
**[16:27] K**
*I guess it's fine.*
**[16:28] K**
* I wouldn't have had the courage*
* to give it to her, anyway.*
**[16:31] H**
Don't give up, little boy.
**[16:34] K**
Santa-san?
**[16:36] H**
I've been watching you.
**[16:39] H**
There's someone you want to see, isn't there?
**[16:42] H**
It's Christmas Eve.
**[16:44] H**
God wouldn't let a good boy suffer.
**[16:48] K**
Thank you,
**[16:50] K**
but it's okay.
**[16:51] K**
My clothes are all dirty now,
and I don't have a present for her.
**[16:57] H**
Then give her this.
**[17:01] H**
It's a silver accessory.
I'm sure she'll love it.
**[17:05] H**
Merry Christmas, little boy!
**[17:11] M**
I can't believe it!
**[17:12] M**
Koyukichi-dono got my present!
**[17:15] M**
I'm so glad I spent all
that time looking for it!
**[17:17] Aitsu**
You're sure getting into the spirit, Koyuki.
**[17:19] Hibiki**
It's so cute, Gestöber-senpai!
**[17:22] K**
* My clothes got all dirty,*
* so I didn't have a choice...*
**[17:26] U**
Number 8!
**[17:27] U**
Whoever's got number 8, come on up!
**[17:30] K**
* Anyway, I took this, but I can't*
* really give it to anyone, can I?*
**[17:35] K**
*I should give it back to that Santa.*
**[17:38] Aitsu**
What? You haven't turned in your present yet?
**[17:41] Aitsu**
I'll take it up for you, so go eat.
**[17:46] U**
Number 7!
**[17:47] Sumiso**
Bingo!
**[17:49] Sumiso**
I got this one!
**[17:52] K**
S-Sumiso-san, that's...
**[17:54] Sumiso**
What? Was this yours, Koyuki-kun?
**[17:56] Sumiso**
What a coincidence.
**[17:58] Sumiso**
Can I open it?
**[17:59] K**
*Is this okay?*
**[17:59] K**
Huh? Oh, uh... Sure.
**[18:03] Sumiso**
What a beautiful necklace!
**[18:05] Sumiso**
Is it handmade?
**[18:07] ---**
*That's...*
**[18:08] Tokimune**
Are you sure about this, Miguel?
**[18:11] Tokimune**
You were so excited
**[18:12] Tokimune**
about dressing up as Santa and giving
Gestöber a matching accessory.
**[18:18] S**
It's fine.
**[18:19] ---**
Gestöber worked hard today.
**[18:22] S**
Though it was an awful thing
to do to you, Schlecht.
**[18:25] S**
After you spent all that time teaching
me how to make accessories...
**[18:28] Tokimune**
It's fine.
**[18:31] Tokimune**
It's been a while since we've
gotten to spend time together.
**[18:34] Tokimune**
Honestly... That Gestöber is
lucky you care for him so much.
**[18:42] K**
I'm sorry, Sumiso-san.
**[18:44] K**
I think that present was...
**[18:45] Sumiso**
I just love it!
**[18:48] ---**
Thank you, Koyuki-kun!
**[18:51] K**
* Sumiso-san's happy, and I got to*
* do what I came here for, but...*
**[18:56] H**
*Don't give up, little boy.*
**[19:00] K**
I'm sorry.
**[19:01] K**
Sumiso-san, I'm pretty sure
that was meant for me.
**[19:06] K**
I know I'm probably not
making any sense, but...
**[19:13] Sumiso**
I'm glad.
**[19:16] Sumiso**
It was important to you, wasn't it?
**[19:19] K**
Th-Thank you.
**[19:21] K**
I'm sorry. I...
**[19:23] K**
I really wanted you to...

**[19:35] H**
Gestöber! What are you doing here?
**[19:36] K**
You made this for me, didn't you?
**[19:41] H**
Y-You could tell?
**[19:43] K**
*Well, obviously.*
**[19:45] K**
So, anyway, since you gave it to me...
**[19:50] K**
Thanks.
**[19:56] H**
Sure thing.
**[20:00] K**
*What a mess of a Christmas this has been.*
**[20:02] K**
* I can't believe I'm spending*
* it with Hanadori-kun.*
**[20:05] Sumiso**
Koyuki-kun!
**[20:09] K**
S-Sumiso-san! How—
**[20:12] Sumiso**
Does it look good on me?
**[20:13] K**
Wait, what? How...
**[20:15] Suzuran**
I thought the pale pink would look good
draped on Sumiso Kotoko's shoulders.
**[20:19] Suzuran**
I told her what happened and
delivered the gift to its rightful owner.
**[20:24] Suzuran**
I asked why she'd want something that had
already been given to another girl, but...
**[20:29] Sumiso**
Can I really have it?
**[20:35] K**
O-Of cour—
**[20:36] Hibiki**
Hey, Gestöber-senpai!
**[20:38] Hibiki**
I was gifted dinner for two at a restaurant.
***SIGN*** Gift Certificate
**[20:42] Hibiki**
Since you gave me your present,
**[20:44] ---**
I want you to have this.
***SIGN*** Gift Certificate
**[20:46] K**
Huh? Is this restaurant...
**[20:51] Man**
Congratulations!
**[20:53] Man**
You're our hundredth couple today!
**[20:55] K**
*Wh-What is with today?!*
**[20:57] Suzuran**
Why not go and enjoy yourselves, Koyuki Seri?
**[21:04] K**
Th-Then, um...
**[21:06] K**
Let's go.
**[21:08] H**
Merry Christmas!
**[21:10] K**
Not you!
**[21:15] U**
Two Santas eating dinner together!
**[21:18] Yae**
Kotoko, just forgot those losers.
**[21:22] Yae**
What's so great about them?
**[21:25] Sumiso**
They're such good friends!
**[21:27] Yae**
Kotoko, is that really enough for you?
**[21:30] H**
Wasn't that tasty, Gestöber?
**[21:31] Man**
Are you sure this was all right, Shi-chan?
**[21:32] ---**
Are you sure you don't want more?
**[21:34] Man**
I lied to them about being
the hundredth couple.
**[21:34] ---**
Oh, you're full? Okay.
**[21:36] Man**
The manager's gonna get mad at me!
**[21:37] ---**
Then let's spend next Christmas here, too!
**[21:39] Tokimune**
Even an angel like Miguel needs a gift.
**[21:40] ---**
It's a promise, Gestöber!
**[21:42] Tokimune**
I'll let him have his fun tonight.
**[21:46] U**
Okay, I'm taking the picture, guys!
**[21:48] U**
Ready?
**[21:50] All**
Friends forever!
**[21:52] K**
*Don't make that our thing!*
**[23:25] K**
It's no use.
**[23:26] K**
Our animators are gone,
and I can't get this colored.
**[23:28] K**
It's the Lunar New Year,
and I can't get anyone to work!
**[23:31] K**
We really are out of options this time!
**[23:33] H**
We'll just have to offer
five times the pay per cut!
**[23:37] K**
Don't! We'll run out of budget!
