[So, you're interesting in spending some time with Pyrrha Nikos? The Champion Huntress, and one of Captain Noctis's first mates. She's not all that hard to find, honestly, and very polite too if you want to strike up a conversation. Maybe she'll teach you some hand-to-hand combat if you ask, or let you hold her lazergunsword that's also a broom (but please be careful!).

Maybe you'll find her in the former bedroom of one Radical Skullqueen that she'd taken up on the ship, listening to music on a small device as she stares up at the ceiling.

...Or maybe you found the box of Pumpkin Pete's Marshmallow Crunch in the ship's cupboards. It sure does taste... inspiring.]

[ So, he's given Touko her present. Next is Pyrrha. Noctis has two gifts for her, too--a set of leather bracers with her initials engraved, and a moon necklace to match Max and Touko--and he has them wrapped very nicely.

Standing outside her room, he lifts his hand and knocks. ]

[The door is answered with the usual amount of punctuality that Pyrrha can muster. It's opened first a crack, just enough for her to peer out.]

Hello? [And seeing who it is, she opens it wide, smiling just as wide.]

Noctis! How are you?

Hey, Pyrrha.

[ What's that he's got behind his back? It's a seeeeecret. ]

I'm good. What about you? Keeping yourself busy?

Actually... yes! I've been keeping myself quite busy I would say. [Does she have her hands behind her back too? Hmmmm.]

Busy, that's me. ...Is there something you need?

[ Hmmmm, mysterious! ]

I just wanted to give you something. It's that time of the year, and all. [ He smiles slightly. ] But if you're too busy, I can always come back later...

"That time of the year"? [Mmmmm trying to hide her smile.] I'm sorry, I don't always keep track of the calendars around here. What time is that?

Some holiday called "Christmas"? [ His smile grows, but he's trying to stifle it. And finally, he pulls the gift out from behind his back. ] But, uh, if you want me to take this stuff back...

No! [Abort!! she's messed up.... at least until she realizes that she hasn't, which goes in the blink of an eye. Finally, she can let her smile out.]

I mean... that would be rather rude, don't you think? I already got something for you...

[And she does the same, pulling a neatly wrapped little box from behind her back. Leave it to Pyrrha to know how to wrap a present on top of. everything.]

[ The outburst makes him laugh a little, and he nods. ]

Yeah, it would be rude. I wouldn't want you to go through all that trouble just to have to return it.

[ It's wrapped so nice... Noctis offers out the present. ]

Merry Christmas, Pyrrha. Hope you like it.

[It's wrapped very nicely. She's so glad. She actually accepts it first.]

And I hope the same to you.

[Nimbly, she switches out the present in Noctic's hand with her own. Enjoy a hat and a vest that's noticeably armored. Enough to maybe take a hit. Just in case.]

[Fukawa is bad at many things. Giving and recieving gifts is one of them. It's a new one, so she would tell you that's not her fault. She's never had a reason to fret over it before. But she sure is nervous now.

But at least with her sisters she feels like she can face them.

Doesn't mean she isn't quick to push the bag into her arms. She's not eager to be judged on her gift choosing abilities. But she... she hopes she likes them.

Inside there's a jacket-- but it's more like armor. It's thickly padded yet breathable, to provide some defense. There's also a small box. It's nothing special but it's significant. Lastly there's a hair clip. She just thought it would look cute with her hair okay-- and Pyrrha didn't seem like the type who'd get that sort of stuff for herself.]

[Pyrrha was already reeling from her previous gift, and definitely putting both of the things to work. She's actually wearing the bracers and necklace when Fukawa runs into her.

The abruptness of the gifts stun her for a moment, not that it stops her from politely tearing into the gift right then and there. If Fukawa was listening closely, she may hear a soft gasp as she sees the jacket in its fullest.]

These are... both for me?

[Fukawa is glad she doesn't have to wait; watching the redhead close for her reaction. Having exactly no experience in shopping for others-- or even for herself, for that matter-- she'd had some doubts.

She's glad that it seems like she can relax a little-- at least stop biting her nails.]

I thought... you know. Since you're always protecting others... that maybe there was a way I could help protect you a little.

[Yes, please stop biting your nails, Fukawa. Pyrrha's probably talked to you about that, and just look at how giddy she is about getting more gifts.]

It's a wonderful thing to think of, Fukawa. Thank you. I'll definitely find the time to wear this.

[Maybe in the future, during an intermission.]
