Okay, that's what Mr. Wayne was saying. Most of the books I've found haven't made sense, so I figured... I may as well ask people who might know.

I tried reading about it, too, last year... But I didn't see any man in red...

I did see a reindeer, though. My friend Ed got turned into one.

Man in red... Like the Santa man, or is there more than one red man for christmas?

Ed, as in Edward? Elric?

Yes, that one! I didn't see him at all, last year--just pictures. And TV shows... and people dressed like him, but who weren't him.

Yes! He was very unhappy about it, too!

Does he usually come on board the ship? Is he even real? I'm not sure if Santa is an idea or some kind of omnipotent alien, to be honest.

[ she's smiiiirking to herself; she can easily imagine Edward would be ]

Becoming something you don't expect to can be jarring.

He's supposed to. He's supposed to go everywhere! .... I... don't know if he's real or not, actually...

Yeah... It happens, here, sometimes, when the Improbability Drive turns on. Once, I got turned into this... sort of... fox thing.

Does he have anything to do with the religion around Christmas? Kaylee mentioned it has religious roots... which might explain how Santa's supposed to be everywhere at once.

Was that when a large part of the ship was turning into the creatures you could catch in those funny looking balls?

That's possible... It does seem like he's called "Saint Nick" sometimes. So, maybe you're right.

Yes! Nobody caught me, though. A bunch of us hid in Miss Hawkeye's room.

Miss Hawkeye was part of it?

[ she misses that woman. ]

[Polly does too! They were becoming friends. T_T]

Yeah! She gave us all a place to be safe.

That sounds just like her. Hopefully everything will go well this Christmas. Maybe we'll even see this Santa, if he's out there to be seen.

Re: text | earlier this month

I hope so! I'd like to meet him.

I'm sure he'd have great stories to tell. He's got to be an interesting person to talk with.
