[Inside the mailbox, she finds one carefully wrapped present. It contains two identical scarves and jars of hot chocolate mix, neatly labelled as "peppermint", "vanilla", and "strawberry" along with a card written in Veronica's loopy cursive.]

Dear Natsuru,
May your Christmas be merry and wonderful. I have taken the liberty of choosing a matching scarf for you to wear with your wife, I hope it is to both your likings.
Sincerely,
Veronica

doorstep, 25/12

[ Asuka is going all out this year. She likes giving presents, and she likes Natsuru, so it makes for a great combination.

So starting off, in a big box, Natsuru will find a few other, individually wrapped gifts. The first thing is a box with a few bath bombs perfect for the season. In the next one there is a jar full with things good about Natsuru. A lot of them are embarrassing. The third is oneof these, of your choosing. The last and final thing comes with a note that says "To Natsuru-chan & Sayaka-chan." But with the right names and dates, of course.

Of course, there's also a card. ]

Merry Christmas, Natsuru-chan! Sorry I couldn't help myself, I had a really fun time picking gifts for you. I'm glad you're my best friend.

-Asuka

text; later that day

[thirdbeauty]

[If only Asuka could see how flustered Natsuru got at that card. Somehow, despite the incredibly sappy note she'd written for Asuka to send with her gift, and despite the fact she'd been acting like it for months now... she'd never actually considered the term 'best friend'.

Embarrassed as she is, she has to respond while it's still fresh. A quick text should do it...]

Thank you for the gifts, Asuka-chan! I'm glad you're my best friend, too.

[W o w, how is this making her so embarrassed and happy at the same time?! It's almost as bad as when she and Sayaka finally started dating after dancing around their feelings for months. Obviously, it's not the same, but it's close! She's never had a best friend before...]

belated wedding gifts? why yes, way backdated, pretend they got them at the wedding

[parkvoyeur]

[ Starting off with something only mildly inappropriate, though we start to get there eventually. Because this is it.

Happy wedding, Natsuru, all the luck in your marriage! Not to mention the wedding night. ]

delivery, 25/12

[coldiceflower]

[ The first thing that she might figure out when she finds the package on her kitchen table is that it's clothes. Because in an envelope, there's a card that says

Merry Christmas to the happy couple.

Don't forget the ribbon when you model this to your wife, Natsuru.

- Yukihina

and if she looks deeper in the envelope, she'll find a long, blue ribbon.

Inside the package itself, there are the things he tells her to wear. ]

text, backdated to the 23rd

[coldiceflower]

Could I ask you to take care of a thing of mine? I don't want Hiyori to get her hands on it.

text

[thirdbeauty]

[Whoa, a text from Yukihina? ... What's this all of a sudden?]

A "thing"? What kind of thing?

[Not sure whether to trust or not but it's Yukihina, so she'll give him (or her, not sure which it is at the moment) the benefit of the doubt.]

package;

[sealant]

[ Within blue gift-wrap lies one very special book for Natsuru. Of all his presents, this may have the least fanfare of all, even in the note.

"Good luck.

- Makoto" ]

Dec. 25th || Package

[moonlit_star]

[Left for Natsuru is a bracelet. Attached is a note.]

Dear Natsuru,

I hope you are having a wonderful holiday. May the hummingbird be the messenger of happiness this year for you.

With love,
Serenity

mailbox; christmas morning

[shesgotguts]

[left on the maizono-senou doorstep are two packages. one is wrapped in blue paper with a white ribbon, and the other is pink paper with a baby blue ribbon. it's easy to tell which one is for natsuru. inside are a few things-- a black robe with "mrs." embroidered on the left side, red and black lacy lingerie (guess who now has everyone's measurements since the wedding~), and a shirt that says "Holly Heights Official Party Crew Member". there's also a note, written in that bold milly handwriting, that reads--]

MERRY CHRISTMAS, NATSURU!!!

Sorry, I've been so sparse lately-- I didn't realise wedding recovery would take so long!! Point is, I'm okay now, and that means that you two have to come over for Christmas dinner! No excuses! (If you wear the shirt, that would be greatly appreciated.) I hope you and your lovely, lovely wife enjoy your gifts!

With much love,
Milly Ashford

GUESS WHO JUST GOT A DATE WITH AIKURO "HOT TEACHER" MIKISUGI??????

text;

[thirdbeauty]

Mikisugi? That's the high school teacher, right?

[The music group is still technically affiliated with the high school, so she still runs into teachers and students there from time to time.]

mailbox; 2/14

[witchplz]

[Natsuru will find, on her doorstep that morning, a full bouquet of flowers, from roses to gardenias of white and yellow. These are not related to the event, mind you. Indicated by the full basket of sweets and pastries attached.

The card reads:
Natsuru,
Enjoy these all cuddled up and close, enjoy the smooze of the day.
Your friend,
Rahzel]

[ With a cute gift card, of course this is what Natsuru is given from Asuka. ]

[blueberrytrain]

Hello! It's Kotori Minami from the other day!! (*＾ワ＾*)
I hope i have the right number and name....
I wanted to talk more about what you all do as fellow idols here since i would enjoy showing you some of the songs that muse performed!!
Oh! Also some of your songs!!! i Forgot to put that in there oops!!!

text

[thirdbeauty]

Oh, hello Kotori-san!

What kind of things did you want to talk about? It's been a while since we've really met as a group, since Sayaka and I live together. So we can just discuss things whenever we want. But when we used to have more members, we'd meet for practice and organize a few small performances. We all supported each other with ideas, too.

Maybe you could tell us more about what you did with your group as well, if you're interested in helping out? I'm afraid I don't know much about things professional and school idols actually do in places with a real industry yet! I always counted on everyone's support, and I'm still learning a lot.

[It's been a while since she's properly had to play the role of leader here, forgive her if she seems a little uncertain! She doesn't want to pressure Kotori into officially joining, either... she wants it to be her decision. As much as it'd be nice to have a growing group again.]

youll never believe what happened to me. never. i dont even believe it. oh god, i think i dreamt it up.

[thirdbeauty]

[Did you have to write one "Nat" for every year of her age, Milly?!]

What? What is it?

[Not sure if good or bad... she thinks it was probably good? Definitely keeping her phone out for the reply, though.]

text

[coldiceflower]

Apparently, you're moe.

text

[thirdbeauty]

Huh?! Who said that?

[package] May 10th

[coldiceflower]

[ Of course, it's suddenly in their house. On the morning, there is a package, addressed to Natsuru. And one for Sayaka.

You should recognize the handwriting, but it's signed "from your dear senpai".

It's all Natsuru's fault. ]

[thirdbeauty]

[Dammit, Yukihina...!

The worst part is, he has pretty good taste. Sayaka will probably like these. And therefore, Natsuru will probably wear them.

Well, if there's a plus side to this, it's Yukihina spending his money on this so they don't have to. Silver linings and all.]

text; backdated to the 12th

[shesgotguts]

nat, can i come hang out with you for a little bit?

text;

[thirdbeauty]

[Normally, this would be a no-brainer, but the timing of this has Natsuru a little worried. Does this have anything to do with Mafuyu...?]

Sure. Is something wrong?

[Fortunately, it's easier to avoid seeming hesitant over text. She really doesn't want Milly to think she's not welcome, because she absolutely is.]

mass text | 08/17

[blueberrytrain]

[thirdbeauty]

Mine's purple! It looks like Sayaka got pink. I don't know how many colors there are yet.

[threewishes]

Hello, hello! I hope you're having a good day, and also that I'm not interrupting anything! In any case, I was wondering what team you might be on? I'm on black, for future reference. :)

[thirdbeauty]

It's OK Kanbaru-san, I don't mind.

I'm on purple, if that means anything.

( Action | 8/18 )

[guiltydulcinea]

[ So at some point in the day Natsuru's going to notice a pink box sitting on her bed - and when she opens it, she'll find this inside with a note. ]

Natsuru~! I hope you like this!

I actually found this in a store a while back and wanted to give it to you as a surprise gift, since autumn will be here soon... then this event happened and it gave me a perfect excuse to give it to you a present! Sorry if the occasion's no good at all, but I promise I'll make it up to you next time!

May the best team win! Don't be afraid to ask me for help with any tasks if you need to, though, okay?

-Sayaka Maizono

(8/17) text

[coldiceflower]

Tell me what team you're on.

[ There's an implied "or else" there if you care to notice it. ]

[thirdbeauty]

[Okay fine, she doesn't see a reason not to.]

Purple. Why, what's yours?

[ text | 8/18 ]

[thirdbeauty]

[Voice of reason here, but she's still concerned because Kotori.]

[parkvoyeur]

[thirdbeauty]

You're buying one too? Sure!

[honcho]

[ hello neighbors... the president has a dare to fulfill, so he'll be showing up at 1431's doorstep in his pajamas (consisting of an oversized shirt and flamboyant flannel pants). yes, it's the middle of the day, yes, he was too lazy to change out of them for something like this.

he pushes the doorbell: dingdong. ]

action

[thirdbeauty]

[Natsuru's similarly underdressed when she answers the door, but in her case it's more a cute and coordinated underdressed than... whatever it is he's doing. A cute cami and boxer pajama set, most likely. Given the weather lately and all.]

Eh?! .. President?

[It's the only name she knows him by, even now. And she can't even imagine why he'd be coming here all of a sudden.]

TEXT | backdated to her birthday

i need ur help w a question
pls resposd!!! im kinda convusfsed rn????

[thirdbeauty]

[Birbdaughter what...]

what's wrong kotori-chan?

[Did something bad happen on her birthday? Before Natsuru could get her gifts there?!]

20th, CANDY LAND

[bubblings]

[ As soon as Hiyori notices what's going on, she is all over the place. Raining chocolate? She's got a basket for the bars and containers for the rest of it.

And now she's eating on houses, the basket and containers next to her as she sits on Natsuru's roof to snap off pieces of the chimney. ]

Yum~!

[thirdbeauty]

[Natsuru's just walking home early, having closed the restaurant for the day when she saw that even there everything is affected by this weird candy land thing. Obviously she has an umbrella and poncho to protect her uniform from the chocolate rain. And she's actually doing the sensible thing (for people without cool powers that make even running and jumping in heels a breeze) and wearing flats on the walk for once.

She may not have even noticed Hiyori there if it weren't for that exclamation. But when she looks up, there she is on the roof, munching on pieces of the house.]

Ah... Hiyori-chan?!!!

[Awfully familiar way to address someone you've never met, but her being Yukihina's daughter and all... it feels like she knows her already. Even though she really doesn't.]

How'd you get up there?!
