So I got my nephew a present...

[Rolina]

So I got my nephew some balls.

My little nephew (cute as a button! ♥) is now coming up on his second christmas.  Now at the the age of two, he's come to a startling realization that's changed his entire views on life - bouncy balls are AWESOME.  Thus, I went on a trip to get one of those really big bouncy balls you see at walmart.  They didn't have any.  Well shoot.  They didn't seem to carry that, as apparently it was a fad from years ago or something.  But they did have smaller ones, about a foot in diameter.  So they directed me to those.  They're smaller, cheap, only a buck fifty, and came in many colors.  Not wanting to be a stingy aunt, I got him four.  Thing is, I swear these four look like the four lit elemental stars.

So I got my nephew the elemental stars...



Thing is, they do not want to be wrapped together.  AT ALL.  So I'll be wrapping them individually.  But I can't just say "To Jason, from Auntie Role" on all four of them!  That.. that's just no fun...

So you're all going to help me give them to him.  ALL OF YOU.  Each clan will get their own ball, so I want you all to write some words of encouragement and Christmas cheer for my little nephew, and I'll get them all together and have each clan give their own card and attached elemental bouncy star.  Try to keep this about him, too, okay?  I don't want any comparisons going on.

Doesn't he already have some of those? Sorry, I can't resist opportunities to make bad jokes, ever. It's one of my main weaknesses, besides ramen. Mmm, ramen. I'm hungry now, that's how it is.

What will the unclanned, and people like me, those who are only in a fundamental clan do?

I once had a stone, that, I swear looked just like the venus star.

[Rolina]

If you're only in a Fundamental Clan or are Clanless will get in as well, don't worry.  I'll try to get an even number of people for each card, so don't worry about being left out, you won't be.  I'll make sure to color your comment to reflect your non-elemental status, too, so don't think I'm just throwing you in a clan here.

[Kide]

That could be fun.... Altough, I'm not very good with words, especially when writing in English, meaning I don't want your nephew to think I'm being rude or something like that.

You're a Luna Clan member, so that falls into Jupiter you could say anything you want, I'd say. You were from Mercury before, right? Maybe try something like that...

[Tetsuya the Azure Blade]

You were from Mercury before, right? Maybe try something like that...

Yeah, that's how it was. But, how the hell do you know that?

Oh, and Role, why'd you not get him some Djinn instead?

Tetsuya, I'd shoot you if I hadn't been about to make nearly the exact same joke. Best opening line ever.

Now I'd say...
"Merry Christmas and lots of snow from the Mercury clan!"

...I'd put my username in there too, but I suspect it would kill the mood

[Rolina]

@Kide: Don't worry, he's 2.  He won't be able to tell the difference.  Plus, even something simple, like "Merry Christmas, Jason!" would be fine.

[Kai Hong]

 "Merry Christmas Jason, from Kai!"
...How's that?

[Rolina]

That works. ^-^

[Kide]

Ah, so it can be that simple? How about this?

"Merry Christmas and lots of rain from the Mercury clan prodigy, Kide. Be a wise boy and pick the Mercury Star, Jason!"
(borrowing phrasal structure from Misery, hope he doesn't mind)

If that's too much advertising (or too long), then Kai's idea could work for me as well... or I could think something else.

Also, something I forgot to mention...

Auntie Role

This made me laugh, haha!

Yeah, that's how it was. But, how the hell do you know that?

Well, I am from the Mercury Clan, which means I know everything a lot. Also, if you were to read my intro topic you would see how I know that.

[Kuroshiiutsu]

How about this, " Merry Christmas, Jason and a Happy New Year! Be smart, take all the stars instead XP."  From the one and only, Kuroshiiutsu. (wait he can't pronounce that) Kuroshiiutsu Kuroshii
never mind just call me Kuro. XP

Doesn't matter if he can't say it, he's only 2. Not like he cares anyway, he just wants his balls.

How about this: "Have fun with your balls, wait, that came out wrong, that's how it is"

[Rolina]

Now now, no pervy stuff.  He's only 2.

[Tetsuya the Azure Blade]

I didn't mean it in a pervy way, I meant the balls you're giving him for xmas, that's how it is! That's why I said it came out differntly than how I thought it would've.

[Rolina]

"That came out wrong" implies dirty innuendo.  None of that.

[Tetsuya the Azure Blade]

How about a simple "Merry Christmas" then.

[Rolina]

Eeeeh... I'm gonna have to reach out to TAoW and the ToK at this rate.

[zman9000]

Merry Christmas from the internetz: zman9000

but the last and only clan i was in was Jupiter... and I've kinda been banned for life from it... or until role leaves Jupiter, but anyway.
so what exactly would I be again...

But something tells me i'm going to end up on Venus no matter what i say.

[Rolina]

You always seemed more of a Venusian, though.  Plus, that was the clan you wanted to join, wasn't it?  You just showed up after they closed it off for a while.

[Aile~♥]

Merry Christmas from... oh, I don't know... me, I guess. Oh fine, I'll tell you: I'm JamietheFlameUser. And that's all I'm gonna tell you.
