"Cardia, you wanted to see me? A gift? Wow, I feel so honored, Princess. I'm excited to see what you got me, thank you so much for thinking of me."

"Cardia, I got something for you! Wait… You got a gift for me too? Haha! What a funny coincidence. Oh? I can open mine first? Well, don't mind if I do!
...You bought me a new top hat? It even has a pin with my name on it… This is such a nice gift, thank you, Princess."

Cardia's thoughts are indicated in parentheses italics, narration is in bold italics, and character dialogue is indicated with their first initial(The cold, dry air blowing through Steel London was a clear sign Christmas was swiftly approaching. Buildings and streetlights displaying bright reds, greens, golds, and silvers made it even more of a majestical sight. Lupin and I, in preparation for the holidays and the annual get-together of the gang, are in Midtown shopping for food and decorations for the party.)L: Ah, is that too much for you to carry?C: No, it's fine, Lupin.(He asks that but he already is carrying way more than me… I'm only holding one bag, he's holding three.
We had just about bought everything we needed on the list, so we were just strolling around Midtown and window shopping. Though, I didn't see much of interest.)C: What a cute display… Is that a mini Christmas tree? The ornaments hanging on it are pretty.L: Are you interested? We still have plenty of time, why don't we go inside?C: Sure, that sounds nice.(We enter the shop and the atmosphere is very calming and warm, the door frames and the countertops have cotton to make it seem like it snowed. Bright white Christmas lights filled the store, giving it a snug feel.)Shopkeeper: Please take your time looking around, there are plenty of items on display for the holidays that we hope you'll find interest in.(I head toward the tree, examining the ornaments on display.)C: Wow, looking at all of these up close they're very intricate and detailed… Do you think we could pick one up for the mansion?L: Shouldn't be a problem, choose whichever one you like, Princess.(Scanning the tree, a particular one caught my eye.)C: A gentleman thief's top hat…(It was a shiny, gold plated top hat shaped ornament with a red metal band.)L: Haha, does this one remind you of me? I'm honored, Cardia. You know, I think I found one that reminds me of you as well.(He tilts a metal rose shaped ornament to me and gives his signature Lupin grin and my lips tilt into a small smile.)C: That's sweet of you to say Lupin, I'm touched that you think of me that way.L: When it comes to you, Princess, you're more beautiful than a garden of roses._Fin
