[01:39] Chise
    I wonder if I'll get to
    see the fall next year.
[01:53] (A)
    The sun is the light for the early sleepers.
[01:55] (A)
    The moon and stars are
    light for the night owls.
[01:58] (A)
    Complete all the rituals by night.
[02:01] (A)
    The night of Yule comes!
[02:07] Heralds of Yule A
    Hey, beloved child of the night.
[02:09] Heralds of Yule B
    Human child.
[02:11] Heralds of Yule B
    Do you think you'll be
    done preparing for Yule?
[02:14] Chise
    Yule?
[02:16] Elias
    We're preparing for Yule soon.
[02:19] Chise
    Elias.
[02:21] Heralds of Yule A
    You sleepy-head, the night will
    be here before you know it.
[02:24] Heralds of Yule B
    Set the Yule Log ablaze in your hearth...
[02:27] Heralds of Yule A
    Before the Horned God and
    his Dark Lady walk the earth.
[02:34] Elias
    Thank you.
[02:35] Elias
    Take care.
[02:40] Chise
    Good morning, Elias.
[02:43] Chise
    Who were they?
[02:45] Elias
    Yule.
[02:46] Elias
    I call them the Yule twins because they
    always come on the day of the winter solstice,
[02:51] Elias
    but I don't really know their names.
[02:54] Elias
    We're going to be busy today.
[02:57] Chise
    Okay.
[02:58] Elias
    You have to tell me if you get tired.
[03:01] Chise
    Okay.
[03:04] Chise
    I'll tell you, I promise.
[03:10] Ruth
    I'm a failure of a familiar.
[03:13] Ruth
    I can't help Chise when she's in trouble.
[03:15] Chise
    He's been like this ever since that day.
[03:16] Ruth
    What's even the point?
[03:18] Ruth
    I'm done for.
[03:23] Elias
    You understand Chise far
    better than I do, don't you?
[03:28] Elias
    It may be tough for you to say anything
    because Chise tends to hide things,
[03:32] Elias
    but you can tell me sooner.
[03:36] Elias
    I'll take care of it.
[03:39] Chise
    This is painfully awkward.
[03:42] Ruth
    She's a bit cold right now.
[03:44] Elias
    Chise.
[03:45] Chise
    It's because we just came inside.
[03:51] Elias
    All right.
[03:54] Elias
    Let's prepare for Yule.
[05:22] Chise
    It's so pretty.
[05:24] Elias
    Is this "pretty"?
[05:27] Chise
    I think it is.
[05:50] Elias
    There we go.
[05:52] Elias
    They say that traditionally, it's okay
    to kiss under the mistletoe.
[05:57] Chise
    I see...
[06:01] Elias
    Want to try it?
[06:06] Chise
    He looks like he wants to.
[06:08] Chise
    Um...
[06:13] Chise
    Could you crouch for me?
[06:16] Elias
    Okay.
[06:30] Elias
    And back to you.
[06:33] Chise
    How was it?
[06:34] Elias
    Hmm...
[06:36] Elias
    How to phrase it...
[06:37] Elias
    My back? My waist? They feel tingly.
[06:41] Elias
    Why?
[06:42] Chise
    Dunno.
[06:46] Chise
    One for you too, Ruth.
[06:50] Elias
    All right, let's have dinner.
[06:52] Chise
    Okay.
[07:18] (A)
    Okay, sir, I'll be sure to deliver this.
[07:23] Elias
    Sorry it's always so last-minute.
[07:25] (A)
    It's no problem at all.
[07:29] Chise
    Now's my chance.
[07:30] Chise
    It'll be okay, I left a note.
[07:34] (A)
    Bye.
[07:44] Chise
    So many people.
[07:46] Ruth
    Chise, I'll be inside.
[07:48] Chise
    Okay.
[08:00] Alice
    Sorry to drag you all the way out to London.
[08:04] Chise
    So, um...
[08:06] Chise
    A Christmas present, right?
[08:09] Chise
    For Renfred-san.
[08:11] Alice
    Yeah.
[08:13] Chise
    You really don't know what to get for him?
[08:18] Chise
    What did you get him before?
[08:20] Alice
    Before, well...
[08:23] Alice
    He was the one giving me gifts, so I thought
     this year, I'd get him something.
[08:29] (A)
    They're eating.
[08:30] (B)
    They're really digging in.
[08:33] Alice
    Aren't you getting that bonehead anything?
[08:36] Chise
    Me?
[08:40] Chise
    I'd never even thought about it.
[08:43] Alice
    Let's go look for a present together, then.
[08:48] Chise
    Wait...
[08:50] Chise
    She's not giving me a choice, is she?
[09:11] Chise
    Did you find anything good?
[09:13] Alice
    Nope.
[09:14] Alice
    There's the question of taste, too.
[09:16] Alice
    What about you?
[09:18] Chise
    I don't even know what his tastes are.
[09:25] Chise
    Sorry.
[09:28] Chise
    I've never given anyone a gift before.
[09:34] Alice
    I don't... well, I don't know too many people.
[09:38] Chise
    M-Me, neither.
[09:41] Chise
    I don't know anyone like that, either.
[09:44] Alice
    We're in the same boat, then.
[09:51] Chise
    In the same boat?
[09:52] Alice
    You're a mage and I'm a sorcerer,
[09:55] Alice
    but we both live our lives
    studying with our masters.
[09:58] Alice
    So we're in the same boat.
[10:01] Chise
    Oh.
[10:03] Chise
    You're right.
[10:05] Hazel
    Hey, it's the lady from
    Mr. Ainsworth's place.
[10:12] Chise
    Hazel-san. Hello.
[10:14] Alice
    Who are you talking to, Chise?
[10:17] Hazel
    Oh, is your friend...
[10:22] Hazel
    Unlike mages, sorcerers don't notice
    people like us, who've disguised ourselves.
[10:37] Hazel
    Nice to meet you, my lady.
[10:42] Hazel
    Christmas presents, huh?
[10:45] Chise
    Yeah...
[10:52] Hazel
    What about something that
    you can picture them using?
[10:56] Hazel
    Think really carefully about them.
    Imagine something that makes sense.
[11:07] Alice
    Want to take another lap around?
[11:09] Chise
    Okay.
[11:11] Alice
    Something he uses all the time, huh?
[11:18] Chise
    I think I have an idea.
[11:20] Alice
    No fair! Tell me.
[11:22] Chise
    You can't copy me, though.
[11:25] Man with a Hoodie
    Hey, it's Alice.
[11:28] Alice
    Let's go, Chise.
[11:30] Man with a Hoodie
    What?
[11:31] Man with a Hoodie
    Let's hang out, like old times.
[11:36] Alice
    I'm not doing drugs anymore.
[11:39] Man with a Hoodie
    Yo!
[11:48] Bald man
    You...
[11:55] Bald man
    Wh-Where the hell did you...
[11:58] Alice
    Go!
[12:06] Alice
    Sorry about that.
[12:07] Alice
    They're just stragglers from my past.
[12:12] Chise
    Alice-san...
[12:15] Chise
    Do drugs taste good?
[12:18] Alice
    Not at all.
[12:20] Alice
    They're not my thing.
[12:22] Alice
    I didn't start by choice, either.
[12:27] Alice
    It's still like a dream.
[12:37] Alice
    This isn't fun to talk about.
[12:39] Alice
    Let's not.
[12:40] Chise
    It's okay.
[12:44] Chise
    I want to hear.
[12:49] Alice
    My shitty parents got me into drugs.
[12:53] Alice
    I had nothing going for me outside of selling
     that crap, when Master took me in.
[13:02] (Flashback) (A)
    Hey, have you seen the blonde brat?
[13:05] (Flashback) (B)
    We need to teach her a lesson.
[13:31] (Flashback) Alice
    What the hell are you looking at?
[13:37] (Flashback) Alice
    What are you...
[13:44] (Flashback) Renfred
    Do you want to stay here forever?
[13:52] (Flashback) Alice
    No!
[13:59] (Flashback) Renfred
    I haven't introduced myself yet.
[14:03] (Flashback) Renfred
    I'm Mikhail Renfred.
[14:05] (Flashback) Renfred
    Call me what you want.
[14:08] (Flashback) Alice
    Hey, asshole...
[14:13] (Flashback) Renfred
    Take a bath first.
[14:16] (Flashback) Alice
    Wait...
[14:36] Alice
    I didn't trust him in
    the slightest at the time.
[14:43] Alice
    Before that, I'd grown up in a trash pit.
[14:47] Alice
    There was no way I could trust people.
[14:52] Alice
    But, one day...
[14:55] (Flashback) Alice
    What a pain.
[15:00] (Flashback) Alice
    I can't read the title.
[15:32] (Flashback) Renfred
    I told you not to open them!
[15:35] (Flashback) Alice
    Ow!
[15:40] (Flashback) Renfred
    No, that was my fault, too.
[15:44] (Flashback) Renfred
    I should have told you more clearly.
[15:49] (Flashback) Alice
    Why?
[15:51] (Flashback) Alice
    Your face...
[15:52] (Flashback) Alice
    You're hurt.
[15:54] (Flashback) Renfred
    It's fine.
[15:58] (Flashback) Renfred
    I'm glad, though.
[16:00] (Flashback) Renfred
    You're finally getting better.
[16:02] (Flashback) Renfred
    You shouldn't be getting yourself hurt again.
[16:09] (Flashback) Alice
    This way.
[16:13] (Flashback) Alice
    I'm used to treating wounds.
[16:15] (Flashback) Alice
    I can do it.
[16:17] (Flashback) Alice
    I'm self-taught, though.
[16:32] (Flashback) Alice
    I'm sorry.
[16:37] (Flashback) Alice
    I'll be more careful.
[16:41] (Flashback) Alice
    I'll protect you, as your bodyguard.
[16:59] (Flashback) Renfred
    I'm counting on you next time.
[17:04] Alice
    Thinking about that makes me feel like shit.
[17:07] Chise
    I'm sorry.
[17:09] Chise
    I don't know what to say.
[17:15] Alice
    You don't need to think anything about it.
[17:18] Alice
    I'll decide for myself whether
    I'm happy or miserable.
[17:23] Alice
    Thanks for hearing me out.
[17:25] Alice
    All right, let's get back.
[17:29] Chise
    Yeah.
[17:36] Alice
    Oh yeah, is my servant bird at your place?
[17:40] Alice
    It's this tiny thing.
[17:46] Alice
    Oh, never mind.
[17:49] Alice
    I'll write you a letter again.
[17:51] Alice
    Thanks for coming out at the last minute.
[17:53] Chise
    No, thank you, too.
[17:57] Alice
    I hope it works out for both of us.
[18:02] Ruth
    You have a friend now. I'm happy for you.
[18:07] Alice
    As my big brother, do you approve?
[18:09] Ruth
    She's not a bad person.
[18:14] (A)
    Jeez, Ethan!
[18:16] (A)
    I'm sorry!
[18:18] (B)
    Stella! Ethan!
[18:21] Chise
    Let's head home, then.
[18:30] Elias
    Welcome home, Chise.
[18:33] Elias
    You're late.
[18:35] Chise
    Thanks, Elias.
[18:38] Elias
    What did you want all the way out in London?
[18:42] Elias
    And you even met with
     Renfred's apprentice.
[18:45] Chise
    Y-You were watching?
[18:47] Elias
    Do you know how many times
    you've put yourself in danger?
[18:51] Elias
    You can't sneak out like that.
[18:53] Chise
    I thought you'd say no.
[18:56] Elias
    Of course I would.
[18:58] Ruth
    I was with her.
[18:59] Ruth
    Don't be too angry, Elias.
[19:02] Elias
    Angry?
[19:04] Elias
    This is angry? I am?
[19:08] Chise
    I think so.
[19:10] Chise
    I'm sorry.
[19:11] Chise
    Um...
[19:12] Chise
    I went to buy this.
[19:14] Chise
    I know it's a day early, but...
[19:19] Chise
    Merry Christmas.
[19:25] Chise
    Elias?
[19:27] Elias
    Oh, right.
[19:29] Elias
    I didn't think you'd get me anything.
[19:31] Chise
    I didn't think I'd get you anything.
[19:33] Chise
    I'm sorry, Elias.
[19:37] Chise
    Uh...
[19:38] Chise
    You're always wearing the same one,
    so I thought maybe it relaxes you.
[19:43] Chise
    I-If you don't like it...
[19:53] Elias
    Thanks, Chise.
[20:00] Elias
    One for you, too, then.
[20:08] Chise
    It's big.
[20:10] Elias
    I've only made them for
    Angelica and her family.
[20:13] Elias
    I thought I'd make one for you, too.
[20:15] Chise
    You made this?
[20:17] Chise
    You did?
[20:18] Elias
    Yeah.
[20:19] Elias
    Angelica told me a long time ago that
    she wanted a teddy bear as a gift.
[20:26] Elias
    I think this year's is my best one yet.
[20:30] Chise
    You've been doing it ever since?
[20:33] Elias
    Yeah.
[20:34] Elias
    I don't really know what else to do.
[20:37] Chise
    Thank you.
[20:39] Elias
    It has a bit of a trick, too.
[20:41] Elias
    Also...
[20:43] Elias
    Those are all gifts for you.
[20:46] Elias
    Angelica, Simon, and Lindel
    have gotten you gifts, too.
[20:51] Elias
    Gifts are meant to be
    opened on Christmas Day,
[20:55] Elias
    so these are for tomorrow.
[20:59] Chise
    Okay.
[21:00] Chise
    All right, let's have dinner first.
[21:03] Chise
    I'll scold you after.
[21:06] Chise
    I was hoping he'd forgotten.
[21:08] Elias
    You should have told me.
     I would have gone with you.
[21:11] Elias
    And I could have gotten some shopping done.
[21:14] Chise
    I wouldn't agree to that.
[21:19] Chise
    I had a secret talk with another
    girl about girl stuff.
[21:43] Chise
    Is this what Christmas
     is supposed to be like?
[21:49] Chise
    I can't believe I'm looking
    forward to waking up.
[22:11] Ashen Eye
    Oh?
[22:15] Ashen Eye
    I see a pitiful child.
[23:55] (A)
    An ancient being, Ashen Eye.
[23:58] (A)
    Siblings that are at the
    mercy of his eternal life.
[24:02] (A)
    The mage and the girl
    lend them a hand, but...
[24:06] (B)
    Give him back! He's my brother!
