[After this and this and this.]

Come on, people. Can we not go easy on the woods for five minutes?

[Very anon]

They're building jails to lock people away who can do things. Are you scared of getting caught?

[Edit: Holly W]

[Defiantly anon.] You want an after.

Hey, so Lou's back in town she wants to get dinner with us. You in?

[Locked to Patrick G]

[After this and this. Public, as 'Aubrey R'. With a non-verbal tone of exasperation.]

Super glad to see that home hasn't lost its touch for the dramatic, or anything. I was starting to worry that I might have to live a boring life.

Oh, did I say 'have to'? I meant 'get to'. My b.

[Patrick G/Ranger lock]

Hey. Care to share anything you know about this that I don't? Planning on going out for a run. [And no, he doesn't mean on two legs.] You know, say hi to the woods. Maybe flirt a little. Pee on some stuff. Any suggestions?

[Following this, Repose's trails are temporarily closed. Hiking and camping are currently not allowed, and winter campsites are cleared out by the local Rangers. Those transients living in the woods are required to vacate for the time being, as the entire area is being considered a potential crime scene. Any non-property owning residents found in the woods are escorted out by local Rangers after questioning.]

[Call: Newt P]
[After this. Ring.]

Santa wants to know if you used your special present.

[Public]

Every place I've ever been, I've had a favorite take-out place. Not picky on cuisine. Mexican, Italian, Thai, Japanese. But I've had a favorite take-out place, not too greasy, no guys named Shane in the kitchen making noodles with unwashed hands, you catch my drift?

Got to find a new spot. Looking for recommendations. And if you're named Shane, sorry. Bad experiences with a Shane.

[ETA: Adrian M]

Hey, kid. Grown past my shoulder yet?

[Newt P]

Hello, Newt.

[Patrick G]

Happy New Year, Patrick.

[Holly W]

Your taste in material is pedestrian, Webster.

[Louis D]

I missed your note, Louis. Sorry.

[Group: Adrian M, Hannah S., Claire J., Pippin P., Charlie P., Dietre A., Noah N, Patrick G, Bea H., Jamie M., Tandy B., Ronan X., Archie W.]

I'm guessing most of you have plans for New Years already, but if you don't, I've got a new festive apartment, and I'm gonna have beer, and music, and probably really terrible appetizers, and if any of that sounds better than your current plans, come, bring a friend, I won't turn anyone away until we don't fit in the apartment anymore.

[Adrian M.]

Your poster has a place of honor over my sofa, cause damn if that didn't make me laugh.

Thanks.

[Patrick G]

You are so lucky I'm tone deaf.

[Damian W]

Is Misha okay?

[A Thank You Card for Newt P]

[Adrian sends a small thank you card in the mail. It reads simply:] Thanks, and happy holidays. -Adrian

[The box is small and white. Inside is a red velvet ribbon tied into a neat bow. Handwritten instructions tell him to unravel the bow in order to feel carefree for a day. Included within the box are a couple of enamel pins that made Santa think of him.]

[Claire, Damian, Dietre, Destiny, Holly, Louis, Misha, Newt, Patrick and... Noah.]

[After this.

A formal invitation to a Christmas Eve dinner at the music shop. Daniel writes these by hand, in ink, on heavy paper. There's a wax seal, too.]

Hey. So, Christmas plans?

[Cast & Crew of Glass Menagerie]

I just wanted to say thanks to each and everyone of you for putting in all the work, and your enthusiasm with the show and all. I've had this crazy live theatre in Repose dream since I got here, and you all helped make it a thing. So. Thanks.

[Claire Johnson]

I had this realization the other day I don't know if I've been the best friend this year, so I'm sorry, and I have a couch now, so we could watch Christmas movies on a real couch, sometime, if you want.

[Adrian March]

I'm pretty certain I could work on improving my everything right now, so maybe let's start with thanks for the costumes, and sorry I've been kinda incommunicado the past few weeks, but it seems like you're looking good. Are things good?

[Hannah Smith]

So, my shitty realization of the week was that I basically have the same want I had last Christmas, and it's probably in everyone's best interest if I don't ask for it.

How's your week been?

[Patrick G]

Are you and Newt decorating the house this year?

[Charlie P]

[She calls. Ring, ring.]

[Adrian M]

Santa treating you well?

[Public]

I'm going to put together a little bake sale, with the proceeds going to the animal shelter. Let me know if you'd like to participate.
