Hi again. So I'm trying to write a oneshot for the Christmas Eve Prompt. I've got parts of it all planned out, but some sections are blocking me. Basic thing: Tooru doesn't celebrate Christmas. He doesn't have a family and what few friends he has, he doesn't want to endanger by putting them on Gin's watch/hit list. Azusa doesn't know this and wants to help him. She asked the Mouri's if they'd be willing to help, but Tooru told them that he was going to be busy (Had an appointment) and thus, could not attend. Then Sugihito came to celebrate with his sister and Tooru has just left for lunch. My problem: I haven't the faintest idea what should happen during his lunch break! Or, for that matter, how he's going to end where I need him to end up. {Open only if you're interested in spoilers} I'm thinking he's going to go to a phone booth and wish Azusa a merry Christmas. Anybody got any suggestions that might help?

Oh, one question... is he going to wander around trying to figure out what to do or something? Like, do some internal monologue, perhaps? Like, he walks around the district just to keep his mind off Christmas but everywhere he goes he just ends up remembering (and/or getting envious) of people who do have that uh, luxury? (no, wait I'm not sure that's the word I'm looking for) If that's the case then you could definitely make him end up in a phone booth wishing Azusa a Merry Christmas... Oh, *fangirl flailing* AAAAH {Click here because I said so (Dont listen to my other self! Shes crazy!) XDD} or, or maybe even have Amuro tell Azusa to make him coffee, perhaps, saying he plans to come back (but in reality he doesn't). Azusa, albeit confused, went to prepare it but upon opening the drawers (or cupboards, or wherever you want to put it) she finds herself face-to-face with a curious little gift-wrapped box with her name on it... (or is that too cliche?) *fangirl flailing, again* WAAAH!~ I definitely should get started with the Christmas Eve oneshot too XDD I should thank you, dear awesome person! (don't worry I have an idea of my own, you just happened to trigger the, uh... trigger of my right-side brain ^_^v)

Good question on the monologue. That was one of the parts that got me stuck. I didn't have the faintest idea what he was supposed to do. But I think you've given me an idea. Yeah. The phone booth is a major piece. I can't get the thought out of my head. {Spoiler: Click to view/hide} [Response to your Spoiler piece] GAH! TOO CUTE! WHERE DO YOU GUYS GET THESE IDEAS!? I like that thought! I don't know if I can pull it off but I like that thought!

Answer to your question: Frankly I do not know... or even if I do know, I'm not sure how I pull them out of their hiding place, teehee...
I should like to give you words that may pull that stubborn rabbit out of its hiding place... {Dug: I just met you and I love you---SQUIRREL!} LOL, making up spoiler titles is fun xD Anyways... *part-timers dressed in Santa/reindeer costumes, giving pamphlets or food samples *christmas lights? snow? *couples, put a lot of them. Christmas in Japan (as far as I know) is well-spent with one's girl/boyfriend And in each one you can make Amuro remember either org members or friends who perished, or what his life would be with a loved one... Nyaa, I'm just pitching in ideas. It's still up to you. ^_^ One last thing... YOU CAN DO IT!~ Hattori believes in you!

Do you have an idea for your entry? I'd be happy to help if I could. (And don't worry. I'll keep it hush-hush.)
