* ~ Bel Heartilly's Misleading, Mischievous, Unpredictable Christmas Collaboration Story of Wonder! ~ *
(Persona 4:FES - The Golden Presents...The 12 Days of GUILDMAS2016!!!)

"Welcome, welcome! Humans, demons, and anything in between! I'm your charming host, Bel Heartilly, and tonight we're bringing you a tale of absolute wonder! Mischief and snowfall and blood and presents, all the elements of a most harrowing and romantic Christmas tale! But that's not even half the fun, oh no! See, this is a Christmas story unlike any other you will read in this disgustingly white season, for it is you who shall be both storyteller AND reader! The lines in this story you shall write, and then once you have finished your contribution you shall see the story you have written continue on beyond your thoughts, beyond your words, until you lift up your pen once more to add another spin on this twisted tale of Holiday Madness! This is...The King of Bel's Christmas Collaboration Tale of Fear and Wonder! You may read the rules below, and do try to keep to them...though I am one for testing boundaries, these are my boundaries, and if you test me, well...you might not live to see the-!!"
"*nudges aside* Yeah, yeah, big scary demon guy...we've heard it all before. It's the holidays, so why don't you shut your pretty little face and let the kids have fun before somebody has a mind to break it."
"Such impertinence...I've half a mind to take you apart, though I suppose I'd have to deal with your samurai protector, hm? "
"Oh, she requires no protection from me. I am merely here to enjoy the show."
"And whether that's me wiping the floor with your a** or telling a story, that's up to you..."
"*laughs* Oh, you're so fun! We're all friends aren't we? Of course you can get on with your story. By all means..."
"I am no friend of yours, wretched beast!"
"Bel-nii! I knew you'd catch the spirit of Christmas! X3 *divetackleattempt*"
"*avoids and watches her faceplant* With the notable exception of God's Bubbliest Reject and the Walking Renaissance Fair, that is."
"Muuu~ *crawls up* Beeeel~ you're supposed to catch me!"
"-flatly- That will never happen."
"With that settled, Ven, do you mind...?"
"Right, then. You may post your contributions below to extend the story...and perhaps this year, as a bonus, a special surprise awaits you all should the story exceed up to 50 entries!"
"Like a Christmas Gift for Daddy~! <3"
"Or a weapon to defend yourself against the terrors of the winter night."
"I'd be happy just to win some peace to spend my first full holiday together with all my family and friends in this world..."
"Ooh! Lael! What would yooou like for Christmas this year...?"
"Great question! Interlude...BREAK! ^ ^"
Christmas Interlude #2 - The Perfect Gift!
"Sooo, Lael? What wooould you like for Christmas?"
"Oh? Um...me? I...don't know, I've never... *thinks* A...garden...? Or...perhaps, something from Tennyson or Frost? ...What about you, Evie...that is, what would you...?"
"Meee? I just want to spend Christmas together with you and everyone else! All my friends and family...ooh! We should have a party at Auntie Natsu and Nyssa's outside Okina and invite eeeveryone!"
"That...might be a bit much for me..."
"Aww...you can stay with me! I will protect you if you get scared! ^ ^ -flexes playfully-"
"*smiles faintly* That's...perhaps, Evie..."
"Don't let the girl down, now! *nudges Lael playfully* You know how far she'll go for you if you say 'no'."
"Don't pressure him too much now, Sera; if we force it, don't you think it would mean quite less to her than if he chooses to be with her on his own?"
"Maybe! ...Probably, shut up! *punches arm* Well if you're so clever, let's put you on the spot, too! What do you want for Christmas, oh handsome prince?"
"What would I like? I could certainly use a new outfit, though I'd much prefer we buy something nice for Ser Pounce than my self. *pauses* And...perhaps a chance to see my mother again, in this world, before the snow has fallen too thick. My unruly Lady~ *kisses the cheek*"
"That's...just like you, isn't it? All sweet and thoughtful and...wait, Unruly Princess? Oh, you're going to pay for that one, smartass! *hits*"
"*rubbing arm* Hm hm... ^ ^"
"Did Ms. Sera just strike Mr. Koichi? But I thought they liked one another? They are a bit strange, aren't they, Patris?"
"Oh, I don't know. I think a little carnage makes Christmas a little brighter...don't you? *smiles*"
"That...? Um...no?"
"Don't be boring, Zaitou! Come here, I just want to release your spirit from your body a little...your Christmas spirit, that is. ^ ^"
"*draws back* I'd prefer my spirit remain where it is!"
"But a little of your blood is fine?"
"No! No it's not...now you're ganging up on me too, Momo? *pulls back more* Why are you picking on the blind man?"
"Ehehe~"
"Venny~ can we play like Zaitou-kun and Patris? ^ ^"
"Absolutely not."
"I wanna play with Ven and Amora, too!"
"Euphoria, I would not advise it..."
"Oh, just let her, Sir Frownsalot! It'll be fun! ...Probably. For me to watch, that is..."
"I'm starting to feel as though Anzu should have broken you before..."
"You can play with me, Bel! *attempted glomps!* Uguu~! *squished*"
"*stretching Io's cheeks to max elasticity* How about no."
"Well then, I suppose..."
"See ya tomorrow, Dorks!."
"Farewe-wait, we're just ending it here?!..."
