[Action - Saturday July 1st]

[izanyagi]

[Alice would find a small package covered with a cloth near the door of the place she was currently staying. Inside was a small basket with a few tasty treats inside.

There's also a riddle: What kind of room has no doors or windows?]

[Action]

[madcuriosity]

[It looks DELICIOUS! And so cute! She looks for a note or some sort of sign about who gave it to her but can't seem to find it.

At the riddle, though, she grins.]

I know this one easily! It's a mushroom!

07/08; action (night, near lake niras)

[gottacatch]

[ Finding fireflies is the mission tonight, which for the young curious Alice won't actually be a difficult thing, if it was any any fireflies. Go to where Lake Niras connects close to the forest by the city, and along there at night, one will find the darkness give away to a dotting of little lights floating there.

Except these ones are yellow, emerald, and pink, not the ones she'll be needing if she's interested in completing the task offered on the Verens task board. ...And it seems that someone else is here tonight with them, the pink and emerald glowing ones in particular lazing about in the air around him.

There's also a rather glowing dog-thing beside his legs, acting like a light and watching the tiny critters quietly. The flies don't stir much to sounds, but those long ears easily catch any approaching sounds, the creature's head turning with Red's following suit. He looks surprised, but just for a second before the look relaxes, and he nods his head to their new company. ]

Hey -- you're here for the blue ones?

[madcuriosity]

[Alice had a jar of her own. She had never seen a firefly, and she had an image in mind of what it might look like, "fire" being the main part of the equation.

She... probably should have told Suzaku and Lelouch she was heading out... she hoped they wouldn't be mad. Maybe if she brought them some fireflies back, they would be less mad!

She just so badly wanted to see these little fireflies. As she was looking around the field she finally saw a firefly and she gasped, her eyes widening.

Were those fireflies.]

They're beautiful! [She gasped aloud, reaching out to try and touch one. It landed on her finger and she let out a peal of glee and then tried to shush herself so as not to frighten the firefly. She made a soft "oh!" of disappointment when the fireflies flew off because of...

What... was this strange creature.

Alice knelt down as she held out her hand to Jolteon.]

Well how do you do?

[She then eep'd and sprang back up when Red came by.] Oh um... YES! Yes, I do believe that's the mission?

(Video - after Sebastian wakes him.)

[cieled]

(He looks quite contrite and, yes, miserable. The side he showed is difficult to explain, but he will try if she asks.)

Forgive me, Lady Alice. I have no excuse for how I behaved.

[madcuriosity]

... Are you my Ciel again or is this an attempt at a trick?

dropped off on the morning of October 11th.

[endingpoint]

[ As promised days ago, in Alice's mailbox is a flat envelope, addressed to 'the Alice of Arts and Culture' with Jane's return address as well. Inside are two options:

One sketch is of what Jane imagines a castle square would look like with the castle itself rising high in the background and the edges of the open space filled with people spectating with a table in the background for treats and tea. The second sketch is more of a meadow scene with a table set up that has all sorts of cakes and snacks on it. There's a stream nearby, and Jane's drawn Alice at the head of the table, with a little fawn laying at her feet. There's plenty of space to add any sort of creatures Alice would like, if she'd like. There's a note inside as well. ]

Dear Alice,

I hope you can fill these drawings with all sorts of creatures to have adventures with. If you ever want more, let me know. I had fun making these for you. I can't wait to see what you do with them!

Sincerely,

Jane D.

[Voice]

[madcuriosity]

[After Jane dropped off the images, it's several hours later she'll be receiving a feeling of pure giddiness over the amulets.]

OH MISS JANE THEY'RE LOVELY!

[greatestdefective]

Miss Liddel! Good day! Allow me to introduce myself. I am the Great Sherlock Holmes, one of the best detectives one could hope to find in this world or any other. [He sounds 100% serious and excited as he makes this claim.]

Her Highness, the future Queen Minnie, has informed me that you have a mystery for me to solve. Is that correct?

[Voice]

[madcuriosity]

Oh ah, well how do you, Mr. Holmes, yes, I'm Alice Liddell, it's very nice to meet you, and thank you very much for your help!

I received a letter, though whether it's a prank, threat, or a poorly written invitation is unknown. All that is known is that it says "Three days" in red ink.

Christmas gift

[moneymatters]

[Alice gets left a gift! It's a wrapped stack of Scottish shortbread cookies sprinkled with cinnamon and stamped to resemble sylvs. There's a note]

Merry Christmas! Wishing you all the best.

-Uncle $crooge

[spellswords]

[Alice has been left a gift, marked as "From: Father Christmas".

It's a set of paints, some brushes and a canvas to use with them. And, of course, a white and fluffy plush rabbit.

A neat, hand written note is attached:]

Thank you for keeping the spirit alive.

-Father Christmas

[sonicblade]

[Waiting on her doorstep is a box, signed "To: Rabbit From: Wolf"

Inside, was a simple plush toy, but also sitting next to it was a small box with sugar cookies. The box read "Eat Me".

There's also a note within: Sorry that it's late. I meant to give it to you yesterday at the party. I didn't have the heart to wake you up. Take care and enjoy.]

[Voice]

[madcuriosity]

I love her. She's perfect, absolutely perfect.

12/24-25

[unyieldingdragon]

[It's the night before Christmas and a man in red has come to Alice's residence, not to steal, but to leave presents! It's rather late at night, when people should be asleep though, as he's not supposed to get caught. The gifts will have a tag included saying "From Santa".

Her gift comes with a festive tin of candies (may or may not have gone stale at this point), and festive knives, courtesy of Noctis and Rose.

With his his task complete, he'll soon disappear into the night...]

[princesswhatshername]

[MORE PRESENTS AT HER DOOR! Inside is a white bunny plush, a tin of yummy cookies, and a blue scarf with Alice's name in gold, hand-knit and absolutely hideous. Minnie tried.

The card!]

Merry Christmas, Alice! Always remember that I chose to be friends with you, and no story or writer can say otherwise. I love you very much. ♥

Princess Minnie Mouse.

[bifroster]

[Jane places a note with the cookies she had delivered for Alice.] Merry Christmas, Alice! May it be filled with good cheer and more! Jane

[oligomania]

[Congradulations, Alice is officially the only one that Velvet delivered gifts to on the 25th. The first gift is a set of hair brush, comb and hand mirror in silver with ornate flower designs. The second is a collection of colorful hair ribbons and the last one is a plush cat.]

Happy holiday, Alice.

Velvet

[Voice]

[questionablewit]

Alice? Are you busy?

[Voice]

[madcuriosity]

Oh ah, no Miss Hawke. How are you today?

'Christmas' present. In time for... other-calendar Christmas.

[whiteknightmare]

Alice gets different presents.

From 'Santa,' just as she should, he gets a carefully packed box with a new tea set which is just for her, to do with as she pleases. And with whom she pleases, so long as they are not threatening her.


Separately, she gets from Suzaku a puffy winter coat, matched with a set of mittens, scarf, and hat.

2/14 [Not Here - Action]

[lightthedarkness]

[Waiting on Alice's doorstep when she gets home is a white rose with a white ribbon wrapped around it. There is also a box of heart-shaped chocolates with a card. All it reads is:]

- From Cloud

2/14 [Not Here - Action]

[lightthedarkness]

[Waiting on Alice's doorstep when she gets home is another rose, this one yellow rose with a yellow ribbon wrapped around it. There is also a box of heart-shaped chocolates with a card. All it reads is:]

- From Jane

2/14

[whiteknightmare]

[ Suzaku totally made chocolates himself today. And though admittedly a lot of them went to Lelouch, Alice got a pretty taffeta pouch with some, too. They were not perfect, but better than Sora and Rinoa's, sorry, Sora not bad, either. ]

BELATED 12/25 + 02/14

[melioristically]

25/25
[ Of course they have a real tree, and for Lelouch's part the decorations are very tasteful. From Lelouch, Alice received a copy of One Thousand and One Arabian Nights (a book with both pictures and conversations! plus, a literary classic), wrapped in pretty paper with a cloth ribbon; from Santa, a board game, not completely unlike what Lelouch got for Usagi's toy drive. It made him nostalgic, and he hopes they can all play it together. ]


02/14
[ Candy-gram! Complete with a yellow rose. Happy Valentine's Day, Alice. ♥ ]

delivered 04/05

[shadowedheart]

[ Dropped off at the residence he knows Alice to live at is a toy theater with her name carefully scribbled on a white card to show that, yes, it is indeed for her. It just so happens to be the same toy theater that she had been looking at a couple months back in a window with the real fabric curtains and paper dolls where some are even blank for her to colour if she'd like.

But... tucked beside the toy theater after opening the box is also a small sized plush animal of a red fox with a smile on his face and a scarf around his neck.

However, there's no saying who it's from as her name is the only thing written on the card accompanied with the neatly packed gift. ]

delivered the week of 05/04

[shadowedheart]

[ As before, a package is dropped off at the residence he knows Alice to live at and, just as before, there's no name attached anywhere on it, even on the simple white card neatly tied to the bow. The only thing that is written on the card are the words To Alice with a single balloon drawn by her name in black ink.

Tucked inside the box, once Alice opens it up, is a teacup candle adorned with various small sweets and different coloured marshmallows in plastic bags and tied with silk ribbon.

Why, it looks like a birthday gift, doesn't it? But from who? Such a curious little mystery. ]
