hello! thank you for your translations. i appreciate them. however, they can be hard to read as the background is a pale beige and the font is white...
Wait really?? It's supposed to be purple and green on beige if its desktop... and mobile version should be the default black and white so I wonder how that happened 😭
Tried for a nagi florist vibe that ended up looking like a Raito page when people said the last version was lagging too much. Maybe I'll try bringing that back and hope it doesn't lag for no reason again.
I'll change it in a few days since links tend to break when I change themes and I'd like to give time for people to catch up with the pair event tl just in case!
Chihiro: Our Netherlands trip got over in the blink of an eye! Kinda sad that we gotta leave already, huh~?
Nagi: …Sorry. It’s because I caused a lot of trouble.
Chihiro: Geez~! You’re apologizing AGAIN! We, like, managed to find your passport in the end so it’s okie-dokies!
Chihiro: Still, it was soo shocking to find the passport sticking up in the dirt along with the tulips!
Chihiro: It was totes funny. Chii could laugh just remembering it!
Nagi: I’d checked the flower bed before too, but… I guess I was in too much of a panic to notice it.
Nagi: Finding the passport besides the tulip honestly made me feel like having a party on the spot.
Chihiro: Ahaha! I toootally get that~☆
Nagi: Thanks to you, my downer luck ended up looking up too… It was a really fun trip.
Chihiro: Hehe… that’s good. Chii had looots of fun too~♪
Chihiro: Sooo many things happen when Chii’s with Nagipeko, so it never gets boring! My heart’s always going thump thump! Having a trip like this is, like, totes fab!
Nagi: Thanks to you, I got to learn about the ways of a gyaru too.
Chihiro: Chii thinks Nagipeko’s already an awesome gyaru~
Chihiro: A true gyaru doesn’t mope, instead~?
Nagi: Smile and peace~☆
Chihiro: Yaaay~☆
*snaps a selfie*
Nagi: As expected of Chihiro, you’re a pro at taking selfies in the blink of an eye… A true charismatic gyaru is something else, I still have a long way to go.
Chihiro: Let’s bring back Nagipeko’s smile as a souvenir for everyone back home, ‘kaay~?
Nagi: Okay.
~~~
HAMA House - Dining Room
Chihiro: We’re home~☆ We’ve got LOADS of goodies to give out~!
Chief: Welcome back!
Tao: Haha, you’ve brought back an even bigger load of luggage huh.
Chihiro: Here ya go Tao, I got you a little tulip ballpen as a souvenir!
Tao: Thank you. Yeah, when you say Netherlands, you think tulips.
Tao: But, I think it’s a little too cutesy for me to use… A pink tulip…
Chihiro: If you don’t put it in your pen stand, you’re getting a Chii-punch instead, ‘kaay~?
Linxing: Welcome back! I was waiting for you!
Chihiro: Wow, Linlin’s here too!? I’m SO hyped to see you so soon!
Liguang: She made herself at home here as soon as she found out the two of you were returning today.
Linxing: Hey so, Netherlands. How was it!? I saw your pics on dazzle and like, they were all soo pretty my jaw dropped!
Chihiro: Seeing it in person will make you even ten times more HYPE!! It’s got soo much appeal you just can’t stop snappin’ pics!
Linxing: Aw, that sounds so fun~!
Chihiro: We took a TON of selfies on the flight back too! Like, I couldn’t help it when I saw Nagipeko being all smiley!
Nagi: Thankies for real.
Chief: Nagi-kun’s smiling so well…!
Liguang: It’s very slight, but he’s able to raise the edge of his mouth a little more than before.
Nagi: I’ve been working so hard at keeping my smile up that it won’t go back now, for reals. Thanks to that the muscles in my face have been getting a workout. I’ll call them gyaru-muscles.
Chief: G-Gyaru-muscles?
Chihiro: Righties, I’ve got Linlin’s souvenir right here too~♪ Nagipeko and Chii picked it out together!
Nagi: Ah, yes. I’m introducing myself a little late but hello, I’m a newly christened gyaru.
Linxing: Oh my gosh, whaaat? Did Nagi-kun, like, change his character? Can I really have this?
Nagi: We picked something that would be totes hype for a fellow gyaru. Please have a look, for reals.
Linxing: Oh wow~ This is…
Linxing: The lamination is totes sparkly and adorbs~! Thank you so much!
Nagi: Thankies to you too. Totally vibin’ hype attack.
Liguang: …What’s wrong with Hachinoya.
Chief: T-There’s something different about him, right…? But it looks like he’s having fun, so…
Tao: How are they even communicating like that?
Chihiro: This hankie was cute in red too, but the white one was too cutieful to pass up so~
Linxing: I totes get that! The lace has just GOT to be white!
Nagi: Yup, I thought white was totes the way to go. I’m for reals honored that the gyaru-pal mindset is rubbing off on me too.
Chief: (...I don’t know what happened but, I guess it’s all good as long as Nagi-kun’s having his fun?)
Nagi: I’m totes happy that I’ve gotten one step closer to being a stand-up gyaru, peace. Please continue to teach me your ways.
Liguang: Worst comes to worst, as long as you have your passport, it should be fine.
Liguang: Worst comes to worst, as long as you have your passport, it should be fine.
Liguang: Worst comes to worst, as long as you have your passport, it should be fine.

Location: Netherlands Keukenhof Park
Nagi: (Liguang-san had given me advice, and yet I still lost my passport…)
Nagi: (I knew I needed a spare for my passport…)
Chihiro: Nagipeko, you didn’t get a drink? Do you want some of mine?
Nagi: …No, thank you. I was just digging it out from the bottom of my bag.
Nagi: *gulp, gulp*
Nagi: (I should go search for it immediately. I need to find it myself before Chihiro can have a chance to worry…)
Nagi: I’m gonna go gather some flowers- Wait, that might be confusing. I mean, I’m gonna go to the toilet.
Chihiro: Huh? Okay, got it.
Chihiro: …Did Nagipeko forget to talk like a gyaru? Wait, that’s not where the toilet was…
Chihiro: (Did something happen? Is he not feeling well?)
Chihiro: …I can’t just leave him alone, I better go after him!
~~~
Nagi: Passport, oh passport, where art thou… I’m begging you, please reply. I’ll give you absolutely anything in return, so please come back to me…
Nagi: No good, I can’t find it anywhere. Not under the bench, in the flower bed, nor the pond. Even the water strider got away from me.
Nagi: Ah.
Nagi: (The bird that flew away just now… It was holding something… Is it my passport? I need to chase after it.)
~~~
Nagi: Got you…! Birdie, please give me back my passport–
Nagi: Ah–
*Nagi falls*
Nagi: Ouch… I slipped on a puddle…
Nagi: Oh, this isn’t my passport… It’s just some handkerchief.
Nagi: ……
Nagi: (Sorry, Chihiro, looks like I won’t be going back to JPN with you. I’ll just lie down here and become nutrients for the beautiful tulips–)
Chihiro: Nagipeko!!
Nagi: Chihiro… Why are you…
Chihiro: You said you were going to the toilet but you went in a completely different direction! I got worried so I came after you.
Chihiro: And now I find you lying in a puddle… Geez, what a shock! Here, take my hand.
Nagi: T-Thank you…
Chihiro: What happened? If you’re in trouble, you should share it with me or else it’d be too sad. Us gyaru pals shouldn’t hide anything from each other, right?
Nagi: …I was really happy to be your gyaru pal. But… I’m sorry.
Nagi: You should just forget about me and go back to JPN. I’ll accompany you to the airport, please give my regards to the Chief and the others.
Chihiro: Wha!? Wha-Wha-What the heck are you saying!? Are you gonna live here now…!?
Nagi: I… lost my passport. I tried looking for it, but I couldn’t find it anywhere. I don’t think I can go back home with you, so…
Chihiro: So…? How do you plan to live here?
Nagi: It’s okay, this country has plenty of tulips.
Nagi: With this many, I’d have something to eat, at least… Well, I could get arrested for it, but at least I wouldn’t starve to death.
Chihiro: Arrested!? That’s no good at all! Besides, wouldn’t you feel bad about, like, needing to eat such pretty tulips? You shouldn’t underestimate what you’d have to go through as a prisoner!
Nagi: Y-You’ve got a point… But then, what should I do…
Chihiro: ……
Chihiro: …Nagipeko!
Nagi: Yes…
Chihiro: It’s gonna be A-Okay, because you’re a super gyaru apprentice after all!
Chihiro: A true gyaru will always have a smile on their face while signing peace, even in the midst of trouble! That’s the gyaru power I believe in!
Chihiro: So, c’mon! Don’t give up! And peace out with me!
Nagi: …P-Peace?
Chihiro: Yep yep, you’ve got it! If we enjoy the process, we’ll find your passport in no time and get back home!
Chihiro: Chii will help you out now, so let’s try searching once more! Having fun no matter what is exactly what makes a gyaru’s life interesting☆
Nagi: ……
Nagi: Thank you, Chihiro. Then please, help me find my passport.
~~~
Chihiro: “...It’s about this big, and red! Have you seen it?”
Chihiro: Haven’t, huh… Dank je wel! See ya later!
Nagi: (Chihiro has been going around and talking to people with a smile. I’d feel bad giving up after trying for so long, but…)
Nagi: Chihiro, thank you for trying so hard to help. But the day’s almost over, so…
Chihiro: …Okay, it’s time to bring out my last resort!
Chihiro: I’m gonna ask my Chiitizens around the world for help!
Nagi: Huh, a livestream, now…!?
Chihiro: Chat!! So sorry to spring a stream on you so suddenly but it’s an EMERGENCY~! !
Chihiro: Right now, Chii’s overseas and like, in some SERIOUS trouble! I lost something and can’t find it anywhere…
Chihiro: Right, right? It’s so bad right? It’s like straight out of a drama or something! So lemme know in the comments on how you’d go about looking for it, please!
Chihiro: …Huh? The person next to me?
Chihiro: (Yikes, Nagipeko was in the frame…!)
Chihiro: Nagipeko, Nagipeko, you mind joining my stream…?
Nagi: No probs please and thankies.
Chihiro: Next to me is the 16th Ward Mayor, Nagipeko! Together we’re having a gyaru-ful trip☆
Nagi: Ya~y. Good mornsies Chiitizens.
Nagi: Totes sorry for the trouble but I’d for reals appreciate your help, peace.
Chihiro: Nagipeko’s gyaru-speak evolved again~! Chii’s countin’ on y’all Chiitizens!
Chihiro: Soo many comments already! I’m sure we can find it in no time thanks to all this advice, right?
Chihiro: And after we find it, it’ll just be a funny story to look back on! We’re gonna find it with the help of all my Chiitizens worldwide!
Nagi: This is the way of the gyaru… The warmth of gyaru-pals…
Nagi: Chihiro and Chiitizens, thankies for realsies. We’ll find it for sure and, like, totes nail our homecoming.
Nagi: That’s the original cat pose from Chii-sama’s dance video that garnered 3 million views in just under two weeks…!
Chihiro: Why do you know all that, Nagipeko!? You got it down to the source too!
Nagi: Well, the truth is that I’ve been watching all your videos ever since this study trip was announced.
Nagi: We’re from different teams, so I thought it would help make the trip more fun if I learned more about you…
Chihiro: (So that’s why…!)
Nagi: Still… To be able to spot you from this huge crowd, they must be quite the hardcore Chiitizen.
Chihiro: Right! I totes have to give back some love! Ya~y, here’s Chii’s cat pose~♪
Netherlands Highschooler Chiitizen: …!
Chihiro: Ahaha, dank je wel!
Nagi: (They looked really touched… I got to see something good.)
Chihiro: Oh, can we go meet them? I wanna try talking in person!
Nagi: Huh, oh, okay.
Netherlands Highschooler Chiitizen: !!
Chihiro: Umm, where’s the translation app… Should be good to go now!
Chihiro: “Thank you for the cat pose! And I gotta say, your fashion is literally on point! Is that style popular with students in the Netherlands?”
Nagi: (...Once again, he’s talking with such ease you can barely tell they’re strangers.)
Nagi: (The back and forth is lighthearted, with the rhythm of people playing a tennis match. The conversation is moving so fast I feel like a spectator in the commentator’s box. Looking at them almost makes me feel like they’re fellow classmates.)
Nagi: (I’m sure Chihiro must have been popular back in high school with those high class communication skills.)
Nagi: (If I’d gone to highschool, and was classmates with Chihiro…)
Nagi: ……
Chihiro: Sorry for the wait Nagipeko! I got caught up in the conversation!
Chihiro: Oh, whatcha thinkin’ about?
Nagi: I was wondering what it might’ve been like if we were in the same class in highschool.
Chihiro: Wha- That sounds soo interesting~! I wonder what kinda classmates we coulda been!
Nagi: I’m sure you’d be the center of the classroom, surrounded by all the other cheery students, have lots of love talks, go karaoke everyday and sing the most popular song in turns…
Nagi: On the other hand, I’d be in the corner of the classroom, counting the leaves outside. I’d be sitting on the sidelines during P.E. because no one wanted to partner with me. I’d be the kind of gloomy person who could only take pride in how fast I could get home.
Nagi: That’s why, I’m sure that even if we were in the same class, we wouldn’t talk like we do now.
Chihiro: Ah…
Chihiro: I see. So this is something only the present me could experience, huh… That’s kinda fresh.
Nagi: Huh…?
Chihiro: The truth is, I wasn’t always like this.
Chihiro: I’ve always wanted to be a gyaru, but… Stuff happened, and I ended up like this.
Chihiro: I mean! I never went to highschool, so. I wouldn’t know what that’s like! Ahaha…
Chihiro: (...I might’ve said too much.)
Chihiro: (I’m sure Nagipeko was just trying to compliment me, and yet… I just had to turn it into something dark…)
Nagi: …I see.
Nagi: –That’s really cool. By the way, I never went to highschool either.
Chihiro: Huh?
Nagi: Even though I watched all those videos of you, there’s still a lot I don’t know.
Nagi: So does that mean… I could also be a cheery person if I try hard enough?
Chihiro: ! …Yup. ‘Course you can, Nagipeko!
Chihiro: Anyone can decide that they want to be a gyaru, and work towards having a gyaru mindset!
Nagi: I could have… a gyaru mindset…
Chihiro: If we went to school together as gyarus… I’m sure it would’ve been super duper fun!
Chihiro: We’d take detours on our way home after school and take selfies while showing off delish sweets~...
Chihiro: (...Yeah, that sounds super fun!)
Chihiro: Right, why not give it a try now? Chii will teach you how to be a totes peaceful kinda gyaru~
Nagi: …! I’d like that, teacher.
Location: Netherlands - Keukenhof Park
Chihiro: Wow, a field full of tulips~! It’s in its league as a dazzle-worthy spot! It’s seriously crazy!
Nagi: S-Snapworthy spot, crazy…!
Chihiro: Hey, hey, how about taking a selfie♪ Let’s take a pic with the tulips!
Nagi: Got it. A selfie… Like this…?
Nagi: Ah, a breeze passed us right as I took a shot...
Chihiro: Ahaha! Our hairs look like monsters, LOL! This is also a memory for our trip, Gyaru Peace!
Nagi: P-Peace…. It’s a little different from the peace sign I’m used to. Is it like this…?
Chihiro: Yup yup, that’s perfect!
Chihiro: Well~ Chii’s a l’il peckish right now. Are you too, Nagipeko?
Nagi: My stummy is a l’il peckish too~.
Chihiro: Eh, are you using gyaru speak? Cutee~~! Even coming up with an original, you’re a natural!
Nagi: I’ll slowly grind on the gyaru mindset, seriously, it’ll be, like, totes huge.
Nagi: However, I’m unfamiliar with gyaru speak that I feel thirsty…. I’ll get something to drink.
Nagi: (...Wait. Was my right pocket always empty? I swear there was something in it-)

Chihiro: OH. EM. GEE! Even the airport has totally different vibes from the one back in JPN! The deco is totes cute and colorful~!
Nagi: Wow… they even have a flower shop here. I’m definitely a tulip fan, they’re so colorful and pretty.
Chihiro: Wait a sec, Nagipeko, look over there! It’s a mega HUGE vending machine!
Nagi: You’re right… It’s for… croquettes?
Chihiro: Everyone’s lining up to get some~ Is it popular here? C’mon, let’s go try some too!
Nagi: Should’ve expected this but, of course the menu is in Dutch.
Nagi: If we pick randomly, we might end up with some super spicy croquettes…
Chihiro: Ahaha! I mean, that sounds totes fun too~☆ Like a Russian roulette, but with croquettes! Which one should Chii get~
Nagi: (I should pick one too for now…)
Nagi: (To be honest, I’d like to try all of them but then I’d be too full to try other local foods.)
Nagi: (In which case, I should try to narrow it down to the ones that seem the most popular… It should be the ones that have the least stock left at a glance…)
Nagi: Okay, I’ll pick the second one from the right. What about you, Chihiro…
Nagi: Huh? He’s not here.
Chihiro: Hey there mister! Please wait a sec!
Chihiro: Do you come here often? Could you pretty please tell me what’s the hottest item in that vending machine over there~♪
Nagi: …Wow. He’s talking to a local in Japanese…
Chihiro: Wao! So this is the number one item? Thank y- I mean, dank de wel!
Chihiro: Wowzies, you can express anything through gesture and passion☆ Chii is gonna go with that mister’s recommendation, what’ll you be getting, Nagipeko~?
Nagi: Oh, um, I’ll also have one more of the number one choice…
Chihiro: Okies! Let’s go twosies~♪
Nagi: (...If it was me, I’m pretty sure I wouldn’t be able to interact with a foreigner so cheerfully.)
Nagi: (That person left smiling… Even though they couldn’t exactly understand each others’ words… Amazing.)
Chihiro: Woah, it’s totes warm! Here ya go Nagipeko!
Nagi: Thank you. It really is warm, smells good too.
Chihiro: Perfect time for a selfie with matching croquettes! One, two, peeeace~☆
Nagi: Ah, oh, um, pea…
Nagi: …Sorry, my peace sign didn’t make it in time.
Nagi: (Because I’m stupid, my hand couldn’t figure out what to do so the chances it looks weird is high-)
Chihiro: Mmm, Nagipeko’s peace sign is totes adorable! Chii’s sorry for springing a selfie on you so suddenly too.
Chihiro: But but! Not knowing where to look actually makes you look totes cute and pure~☆ I think it captures a perfect kinda memory of our trip!
Chihiro: Now, let’s dig in~♪ We gotta eat it up before the bus arrives!
Nagi: ……
Chihiro: Mmm~♪ This croquette is SO crazy delish~!
Nagi: (He talks to strangers so confidently, is skillful at taking photos, and never fails to follow up when someone feels down…)
Nagi: (This must be what it means to be a “gyaru.” He’s on a whole other level at making the best of life.)
Location: Netherlands - Lisse
Chihiro: Hurry up Nagipeko~! We’re almost there! Hurry hurry!
Nagi: Woah… that was close. You’ve got some good arm strength to pull me alon-
Nagi: …! Woah…
Chihiro: There it is! Netherlands’ famous flower parade!
Chihiro: The float is SO big~! Seriously, you’re telling me that WHOLE thing is made up of just flowers!? It looks so POPPIN’ and totes cute, I’m getting so hyped~!
Nagi: It feels really different seeing it in person.
Chihiro: Right right~! When I found out I was going to Netherlands with Nagipeko, I just KNEW I had to bring you here!
Nagi: …Looks like that float is using hyacinths in its arrangement. Their colors are really vibrant. And the one over there mainly uses tulips…
Chihiro: Hwha, you can tell all that from this distance!?
Nagi: Yep. They’re using a lot of bulbous flowers, so that was a hint. From there, I could differentiate them between the colors and scents.
Chihiro: Wowie~! Nagipeko’s totes a pro~! Getting to hear your explanations in real time is like, the VIP treatment, right?
Nagi: I’m glad you enjoyed it. Feel free to ask me any questions, I’ll do my best to answer all of them.
Chihiro: Okaaay~! Got it, teacher!
Parade-Viewing Person?: —! —-!
Chihiro: …Hm? Is that kid saying something while looking in our direction?
Nagi: Huh, you’re right. Wait, did I do something I wasn’t supposed to…
Sorry for the wait, I was wrestling with Chii-speak the whole time (who also infected Nagi with it) but thank you Niri and Aca for helping me out with it and for PR!

Yodaka: …Oh?
Yodaka: (The lights in our room are still on so late… That’s rare.)
Location: HAMA House - Rat Room
Yodaka: Nagi, you’re still awake?
Nagi: This is bad, Yodaka-san.
Nagi: One thing led to another, and now my smartphone has me in a chokehold.
Nagi: After watching one of the clips Toi suggested from this “Chii-sama’s Clip-worthy Moments” channel, I’ve been getting similar recommendations left and right…
Nagi: It’s a channel that uploads clips from Chihiro’s streams. Everything from super hilarious to super emotional is shared here that you just can’t take your eyes off him…
Yodaka: (It’s quite rare to see Nagi so absorbed in something, best I don’t put a damper on his mood.)
Yodaka: I’m glad that you seem to be enjoying your night. But make sure you don’t watch too much and hurt your eyes.
Nagi: Thank you, I’ll try to be careful. This is the last one– Or so I’ve been saying for the past hour. But I’ll make sure this is the last one for real and go to sleep…
Nagi: …Oh, this thumbnail looks really interesting. Ah, my fingers just moved on their own…

Location: HAMA House - Entrance
Tao: Hup… That should be everything.
Chihiro: You’re a lifesaver~ Thankies, Taotao~♪
Chief: Wow, that’s a lot of luggage you’ve got there Chihiro-kun!
Tao: Isn’t it way too much? You sure you need all this?
Chihiro: Yup! One bag is for all the clothes I need to change into. My outerwear’s gotta match with my coords.
Chihiro: And this bag over here has all the stuff we need for taking photos~♪ We’re going overseas, so we totes gotta take lots of pics!
Liguang: I was wondering why it was so noisy from early in the morning… I see, so you’re leaving today.
Chihiro: Lii-san! Look forward to some souvenirs from the Netherlands~♪
Liguang: You can get your souvenirs, but make sure you don’t forget the reason you’re going on this study trip in the first place. It’s so you can learn from your travels, first and foremost.
Chihiro: Geez, I know! With Nagipeko, we’ll perfectly dominate the study tour with our super-combi~♪
Chief: Speaking of, where’s Nagi-kun?
Tao: I saw him in the washroom earlier, so he’s awake at least…
Sonia: Nagi-shan, have you made shure you have all you need?
Nagi: Yep. All good. I made sure to pack a spare for my spare clothes, an umbrella, a fry pan and a first-aid kit for all kinds of trouble. Also some fertilizer and a flamingo floatie….
Tao: He’s got a huge load of luggage too…
Chihiro: I think he’s got even more than me? Was Nagipeko’s on Team Heavy Packer too?
Nagi: There’s no way of knowing how my unlucky disposition might blow up so… I have to prepare all this to make sure at least Chihiro gets back home safely.
Sonia: Better shafe than shorry!
Liguang: It’s true that some trouble might crop up during travel, but if worst comes to worst, as long as you have your passport, it should be fine.
Nagi: But I can’t prepare a spare for a passport…
Liguang: Don’t assume you’re going to lose it in the first place.
Tao: (...Huh? Now that I look closer, doesn’t Hachinoya-san look really tired today? Was he too nervous to sleep properly…?)
Chief: Oh, looks like it’s almost time. Chihiro-kun, Nagi-kun, we should head out now!
Chihiro: Alrighty! Let’s go, Nagipeko! Let’s Netherland a Nice Trip☆
Tao: Hachinoya-san, I’m leaving Chihiro in your care.
Nagi: I think I’m the one who’ll cause more trouble but, leave it to me.
Location: HAMA House
Chief: Well then, I’ll be back after dropping them off.
Liguang: Be careful.
Chihiro: Chiefy, thankies for the ride~☆ Let’s head off!
Nagi: *gasp*....! The “thankies~☆” pose he did just now is a super rare version he did last time in the summer vacation special stream… I didn’t think I’d get to see it live…
Tao: Huh? Hachinoya-san?
Chihiro: We’re going now☆
Nagi: We’ll be off.
Tao: …Will those two really be alright?
Liguang: They’re not children. Come what may, I’m sure they can figure something out.
Finally, the nagishuu chapter... If possible, do try to read the translation alongside the in-game chapter so see Nagi's expressions change in real time.
Location: HAMA House - Living Room
Tao: *sigh* I’m back…
Nagi: Welcome back, Tao. Thank you for taking the time to help despite the cold outside.
Raito: Oh? Where’s Kuguri?
Tao: Don’t ask me. I left him behind.
Tao: I tried contacting him through the headset but got no response. We handed the present over to Murakumo-san with no problems, though, so rest assured.
Liguang: You must have been troubled, Kinouchi. But I appreciate it all the same.
Tao: I mean, he’s always like that.
Nagi: With this, we can finally say Mission Santa: Complete.
Nagi: I wouldn’t have been able to pull this off by myself. Please accept these bath bombs as a present from me.
Nagi: Tao, thank you for lending me your strength as part of Team Noel.
Tao: Ahaha, you’re welcome.
Nagi: Kuguri-san might not be here but… I’m happy he helped out too. I’ll make sure to give him his present later.
Nagi: Raito-san, you had to run around HAMA for my sake as part of Team Ginger, thank you for your help. HAMA Nice Ramen.
Raito: HAMA Nice Ramen, too! Feel free to call me anytime you need my help, or my cooking.
Liguang and Nagi: ……
Liguang: (The night felt long, and yet it passed in the blink of an eye…)
Nagi: Liguang-san, about what you wrote on this card…
Liguang: Hm?
Nagi: “No man is a failure who has friends.” I think I would’ve given up again if it weren’t for this.
Liguang: “Again?”
Nagi: I’m used to not having my wishes granted. That I’d dare wish for something beyond my reach… It’d only be natural that it would slip through my fingers.
Liguang: Beyond your reach, huh…
Nagi: I was lucky to have you advise me. Having such admirable people who’d lend me a hand is the best gift of all.
Nagi: Since you helped me out yet again, I’ll redouble my efforts to repay you starting from tomorrow. I’m willing to do anything from wake-up calls to shoulder massages—
Liguang: That won’t be necessary… I’ll admit, I enjoyed myself as well.
Liguang: Hachinoya. It’s not so bad to have more people to treasure.
*Liguang leaves*
Nagi: Ah… I can feel it.
Nagi: (The arrival of happiness.)
Location: HAMA House - Terrace
*winds blowing*
Nagi: Brr…Cold… Good, this is exactly what I need.
Nagi: (First, I’ll sit down on a chair covered in snow.)
Nagi: (And now… to dump some of this snow down my shirt…)
*Nagi shivers*
Nagi: …! …!!
Nagi: O-O-Okay—
Nagi: (That should keep the Yajirobe in balance for the time being.)
Nagi: *sigh* …My sinuses hurt…
Nagi: (Oh… There are lights on in the mansion across from here…)
Nagi: A Frame of Happiness: “Houses Lit Up at the Dawn of Christmas”... Card captured.

Nagi: “The Department Store on Christmas Day.”
Nagi: “Family Car Packed Tight on Christmas Day.” “Christmas Trees and Ornaments that Reappear Annually.”
Nagi: (I love this season. Everyone gets to experience a Christmas miracle, just like in the movies. I can’t help but share in the happiness, even if it’s just leftovers from other people.)
Nagi: “A Family Crossing the Road, Huddled Together Like Penguins.” “A Baby Swaddled in the Backseat of a Car.”
Nagi: “Breaths that Mist Together.”
Nagi: (In the space between myself and the scenery in front of me, I can see an outline of what could have been, if I had a family of my own…)
Nagi: Yep. As I thought, I can’t help but feel uneasy when I don’t have someone I can impose my excess happiness onto.
Nagi: (I should try and remember how I got by before I met the Chief, instead of just sitting around and tracing the patterns formed by other people’s families.)
Nagi: Phew…
~~~
???: Nagi-kun?
Nagi: …Chief?
Chief: What are you doing out here, so early in the morning?
Nagi: I could ask you the same thing. I thought you’d be arriving later since you were with your family.
Chief: Erm…
Chief: (I can’t very well tell him that I regretted not making sure of what his plans were for Christmas Eve… And that I cut my plans short to come back early—)
Chief: My brother had something come up, so we decided to part ways sooner than expected.
Nagi: I see. I guess that can happen some years, since you know you have the next year, and the year after that to—
Chief: —So, what brought you out here now?
Chief: (I was worried whether Nagi-kun’s past might cause him to have mixed feelings about this season… Is that why he’s awake so early in the day?)
Nagi: I couldn’t keep up with my debt of happiness, so I’ve been using the cold and the snow to keep my Yajirobe in check.
Chief: …So that means you’re not out here because you’re sad, or lonely, right?
Nagi: Huh? Yeah.
Chief: Thank goodness…! That means you’re happy enough that it’s actually turned into a debt, huh!
Nagi: …Yeah.
Nagi: Oh, right. Welcome home, Chief.
Chief: Yeah! I’m glad to be back!
Nagi: ……
Chief: (I’m relieved. He looks like he’s in a good mood.)
Chief: Right! I’ve brought you back a souvenir as a Christmas present!
Nagi: This is… A huggable koala doll?
Chief: Yeah! These were handcrafted by an artisan, each and every one having a unique face!
Chief: So I splurged and got one for everyone at HAMA Tours… I couldn’t help but think this little one here has a face that kinda looks like yours.
Nagi: There’s no way I look this pretty…
Chief: Here, I’ll put it on your finger.
Chief: Merry Christmas, Nagi-kun!
Nagi: —....
Nagi: (“The Reassuring Feeling of a Koala’s Hug.” …This is the strongest card.)
Nagi: …This is dangerous.
Chief: Huh?
Nagi: If I didn’t already have a gift on hand, I’d be worried that HAMA House would explode on the spot. Bombed, even.
Chief: A bomb?
Nagi: Merry Christmas, Chief. This is my present for you.
Nagi: It’s a bath bomb. You can use it next time you take a long soak in the bath.
Chief: Oh wow, thank you…!
Nagi: ……
Nagi: (Wait. What if my shoddy handicraft is making her cringe on the inside… I mean, that’d go for everyone else too.)
Nagi: (Maybe I should just take them all back before everyone wakes up—)
Chief: The smell of flowers and soap is really comforting, just like you, Nagi-kun!
Akuta: WOOOOAHHHH, WHAT THE HECK IS THIS—!! SANTA!? IS SANTA ACTUALLY FOR REAL!?
Ushio: SO FUCKING LOUD!! Can you NOT shout right in my ear first thing in the morning!? How has your throat not gone to hell by now!?
Chief: …Huh? Why’s it so noisy inside?
Chief: Let’s go back in for now. We should ask them what happened!
Chief: C’mon Nagi-kun! Christmas is about to start!
Nagi: …Ah, yeah.
Nagi: (Does this mean… I finally get to peek into the other side of “Houses Lit up at the Dawn of Christmas?”)
Nagi: (What a wonderful Christmas this turned out to be…)
Note:
The flower used in the bath bomb Nagi made for the Chief are red tulips, which in flower language can have the meanings "love's confession" and "gratitude for family."

Thank you for reading! I hope you enjoyed it as much as I did 😭
Nagi: (We finished giving presents to the Dragon and Dog rooms…)
Nagi: Next is…
Toi: Zzz… zzz…
Netaro: Muu nyaa… …with that, this galaxy is mine… all’s well that ends well~…
Nagi: (They’re sound asleep.)
Nagi: Oh.
Nagi: (There’s a Christmas stocking here. Netaro has one too. I can’t not put the presents in there.)
Nagi: (The bath bomb… hm? It won’t go in the stocking… I guess my Santa proficiency is still too low to do this well.)
*He struggles for a bit*
Nagi: …Okay, it’s in. And with that—
Ryui: Oi.
Nagi: !?
Ryui: ……
Nagi (whispering): (Ryui, you’re still awake?)
Ryui (whispering): (Look at the table.)
Nagi (whispering): (? Huh… the table?)
Nagi: (Oh, there’s six cookies and a glass of milk on there. Did they prepare this for Santa?)
Ryui (whispering): (Toi prepared it. If you leave even a single crumb unfinished, I’ll fucking kill you.)
Nagi: *nods*…
Location: HAMA House - 2F Hallway
Nagi: *chewing, shuffling*…
Liguang: Oi. Why are you eating so carefreely during a mission?
Nagi: Sowerry… *gulp*. (Translation: Sorry)
Raito: “Testing, testing, can you hear me? Team Ginger speaking.”
Liguang: What’s wrong?
Raito: “I’ve safely delivered Chihiro’s present! And he was so moved by the float that he even offered to help.”
Chihiro: “OMG, big thanks for the bestest Christmas prezzi EVER ♪ I’m for reals thankful~!”
Raito: “The surprise for Yodaka-san was also a success. We’re about to return to HAMA House now.”
Liguang: Got it. Get home safe.
*off*
Nagi: Thank goodness… At this rate, the mission will be all done in no time…
Liguang: It’s too early to relax. Something unexpected has occurred.
Nagi: Huh?
Liguang: The brats from the Noon Team are all awake and gathered in the snake room.
*Nagi’s face pales*
Nagi: Huuuh???

Location: Hotel - Hallway
Tao: Woah, woah, woah, wha– hold on a second, Kuguri-san!
Kuguri: What are you waiting for after coming all this way? He’s staying in room 1103, you know.
Tao: I understand, but still…!
Tao: (No, seriously, what the heck is going on…!? Kuguri-san has followers even amongst the hotel guests who are willing to provide information…!?)
Kuguri: Maci, didn't you want to give Ten his present?
Tao: Of course I do!
Tao: It’s just… Um… I don’t think Murakumo-san’s gonna be sleeping in there…
Ten: Oh~? Kuguri-san and… Tao? What’re you guys doing here?
Tao: Huh… Murakumo-san! I hadn’t even considered you not being in your room.
Kuguri: … Now that’s boring.
Ten: Oh, did you two come to stay the night together? If you’d told me earlier, I’d have helped you get the regulars’ discount~
Tao: That’s not it…!
Tao: We came to give you a Christmas present. Hachinoya-san was working on giving them all alone, so we’re trying to help him…
Ten: I see~ Now I kinda feel bad for making you come all the way out here.
Tao: (… Phew. We managed to give it to him.)
Ten: Woah, it’s a bath bomb. Cool, wanna try it together now?
Tao: What?
Tao: (What, doesn’t he have his girlfriend in there anyway!?)
Kuguri: Why not~♪ Let’s all spend this night together.
Tao: Excuse me!?

Location: HAMA House - Snake Room
Akuta: This is it! Now we’re talkin’! Time for the bully victim to show off his manly spirit and COUNTERATTACK!
Ushio: *yawn*…
Ushio: This is literally so stupid… Isn’t there something else we can do aside from an all-night Christmas MOVIE marathon?
Nanaki: You say that, but you went out of your way to bring a Christmas movie you liked anyway. You’re really not making your case here.
Kiroku: I brought… something, too... Here…
Muneuji: Mm, a wonderfully red package befitting Christmas. So this is what one calls eye opening.
Nanaki: But I think I’m starting to get a little sleepy. Maybe I’ll make a cup of coffee…
Akuta: WHOAAAAA, AND IT’S A HIT! RIGHT SQUARE ON THE CHEST!
Nanaki: St-stop shaking, m…!
Location: HAMA House - 2F Hallway
Nagi: Wow. I wish I could’ve lived a high school life like this.
Liguang: Fool. Now is not the time to be saying that.
Nagi: Hmm… sleeping… gas… Netaro… health hazard… high schoolers… infinite stamina… bottomless pit… times five… safely…
Liguang: (I thought he would be more disoriented, but he’s got some guts after all.)
Nagi: Okay, I got it.
Location: HAMA House - Snake Room
*knock knock*
Akuta: Hm? Comiiiing, you can come in if you want!
*opens the door*
Location: HAMA House - 2F Hallway
Akuta: Huh?
Muneuji: There is no one here…
Akuta: Erm? Was I hearing things? Am I too hyped for Christmas?
Nanaki: No, I’m pretty sure there was a knock.
Kiroku: …There’s a… really good… smell…
Ushio: It smells like… sesame oil and garlic? Where’s it even coming from…?
Location: HAMA House - Dining Room
Akuta: HELL YEAAA~!!
Akuta: A dream? A hallucination? Nope, it’s all real baby!!
Kiroku: A large fried rice… and ramen set… and more…
Muneuji: There’s a note that says feel free to take whatever you’d like.
Muneuji: Mm. I was just feeling peckish and craving something salty. In that case, I shall take them up on their offer.
Akuta: Thanks for the meal~!!
Ushio: Now hold on a second. No matter how you look at it, this is obviously sus as hell?
Nanaki: Yeah. I hate saying this, but Ushio’s right. I don’t know how I feel about eating food of unknown origins.
Ushio: Um, excuse me?
Akuta: The plump chashu and fluffy eggs are insane! And the rice is so crispy! This fried rice is bussin’ for real FOR REAL!
Kiroku: The ramen soup… is also… good. It’s rich… but… goes down…easily.
Muneuji: I agree, I am unable to control my hands. They will not stop moving.
Nanaki: ……
Ushio: ……
Nanaki: …What do we do?
Ushio: …Even if you ask me…
Nanaki & Ushio: (What else can we do in a situation like this?)
*starts eating*
~~~
Akuta: Ahhh, that was a feast! Thanks, whoever did this!
Nanaki: …Dammit.
Ushio: It was stupidly good…
Muneuji: Mm. As expected, food tastes better when eating with everyone.
Akuta: Maaan~ I’m STUFFED!! Okay~ Now that we’re all fueled up, time to head back for movie marathon part two!
Kiroku: Ye…ah. I’m… really full…
Location: HAMA House - 2F Hallway
Liguang: …It’s been 5 minutes.
Nagi: Alright, it’s go time.
Location: HAMA House - 2F Hallway
Noon Team: Zzz.
Nagi: …All according to plan.
Nagi: “Stuffed Belly - Good Night,” a powerful attack that induces drowsiness after filling you up on food.
Nagi: Raito-san, thank you for preparing the ramen, even though you had to rush back for it. And Liguang-san, I could sense a millennium of Chinese history through the fried rice you cooked.
Raito: No one could possibly resist the allure of a midnight meal consisting of rich ramen and fried rice. Especially not high-school boys such as them.
Liguang: It was quite the odd suggestion… But I suppose we weren’t in a position to choose our means.
Sonia: Nagi-shan’s Mission Shanta must have begun by now—
Location: HAMA House - Meeting Room
Nagi: First, I’d like to thank everyone gathered here, on the night of Christmas Eve, which most people would be spending with a special someone.
Nagi: You are now honored Santas of HAMA Tours, handpicked after careful screening by Liguang-san and yours truly.
Tao: S-Sure…
Tao: No, hold up, what’s with this line-up…?
Liguang: The selection criteria was, first, those who don’t believe in Santa. And more importantly, those who didn’t have any plans, or answered that they would be spending Christmas Eve “as usual.”
Tao: Th-That’s kinda sad…
Raito: I may not have kids, but I’m happy for the chance to act like a father.
Nagi: Right, leaving a present under someone’s pillow is very family-like…!
Raito: Yes, it is!
Liguang: Did you get all that, Domeki?
Tao: (…Man, I think Kuguri-san’s the type to scoff at stuff like this, are we sure about him being here?)
Kuguri: …Fufu… Kukuku…
Liguang & Nagi & Raito: ?
Tao: (Ugh, that’s what I thought…)
Kuguri: Santa Claus… Me? Kuku, what a joke. Hahaha…!
Tao: (H-He’s acting like this tickled his funny bone… Maybe it’ll be fine if he gets a kick out of this?)
Liguang: Take a look at this map here.
Nagi: The presents have to be delivered over a large area. That’s why we’ll split the delivery job amongst us.
Liguang: We’ll split into three groups. Since Hachinoya and I are also in charge of directing this process, we’ll remain at HAMA House. Domeki, you and Kita–
Kuguri: You must be joking. One of my lambs can play reindeer just fine. I’ll go alone.
Liguang: …Hachinoya made these presents himself.
Nagi: Yeah. Maybe you find it gross but I put my heart and soul into making each and every one of them.
Kuguri: Well, that’s not very nice. Do you think I’d simply throw them into the ocean and claim that I handed them out instead?
Nagi: Huh, really? I guess it can’t be helped… Oh but, I’d be worried about polluting the ocean so at least throw it away in a flammable garbage bag…
Liguang: What he means to say is that you need to handle the goods carefully… Kinouchi, you’ll go with Domeki.
Tao: U-Uhhh…
Kuguri: A holy night with maci, hm~♪ Make sure to keep your eyes on me so I don’t turn into a Black Santa.
Tao: (Yeesh, this mission’s gotten a lot harder all of a sudden…)
Raito: Haha, this is getting exciting! How about we all assign code names to make this feel even more like a mission? For when we speak on the walkie-talkies.
Liguang: I don’t mind. I’ll leave the naming up to Hachinoya.
Nagi: Oh, uh, okay. Then…
Nagi: Raito-san will be Team Ginger.
Nagi: Tao and Kuguri-san will be Team Noel.
Nagi: Liguang-san and I will be Team Fir.
Tao: Got it.
Nagi: (This is a reassuring line-up…)
Nagi: I’ll be counting on your help with Mission Santa.

A few hours after the strategy meeting—
Location: HAMA House - Tiger Room
Nagi: …I’ve arrived at the Tiger room.
Liguang: “I had confirmed Ooguro and that fool had gone to sleep two hours ago. I believe they should be in a state of deep sleep, but be careful not to make a sound regardless.”
Nagi: Roger.
Renga: Mmm… So pretty… Just look at those… golden shuumai…
Kafka: ……
Nagi: ……
Nagi: …Successfully left the presents besides their pillows.
Nagi: (So this is what it feels like to leave presents for your family while they’re fast asleep… Even if some European power barged in right now and performed a 100 lariats on me or held me in a Scorpion Deathlock, I could probably deflect it all with a smile.)
Nagi: Oh, this is bad. My emergency happiness handler is away and yet I can’t help but feel the happiness overflow right now.
Liguang: “What’s wrong?”
Nagi: I’ll head to the Monkey room right away.
Liguang: “Understood.”
Kafka: Good luck.
Nagi: Huh?
Kafka: ……
Nagi: …Must’ve imagined it.
Location: HAMA House - 2nd Floor Hallway
Liguang: “Team Ginger, how is it going on your end?”
Location: HAMA Downtown
Raito: No problems here!
Raito: The floats for the Christmas parade are in perfect condition. I suppose in Chihiro’s terms, this would be “Flashy-Cute to the MAX Hypetown!”
Raito: Right now, I’m lighting up Christmas Eve with the colors of the rainbow.
Passerby couple (the man): Woah, what’s this! Wonderful… Midnight… Parade…? I don’t really get it, but it’s so shiny!
Passerby couple (the woman): There’s mobile illuminations! I’ve got to take a pic! Now where did I put my phone…
Raito: The roads are clear since it’s so late, so it’s going smoothly. I’ll probably make it to Chihiro's house in no time.
Liguang: Try not to stand out too much.
Raito: Haha, I know.
Raito: I’ll head for Yodaka-san’s shop once I’m done with Chihiro. I’ll contact you then–
Nagi: That scared me. I could feel my heart in my mouth.
Kinari: Hachinoya-sama. It is currently 2:21 AM. What are you doing here at this hour?
Nagi: Oh, that’s, um…
Nagi: I-I came to borrow one of Raito-san’s bowls…
Kinari: …If that is all you’re looking for, it is over there.
Kinari: It is recommended you turn on the lights next time. Resuming sleep mode… “Good night”.
Nagi: Yeah, goodnight.
Nagi: Phew…
Nagi: Being Santa really isn't all fun and games.
Nagi: (I wonder if Team Noel is doing okay…)
~~~
Location: HAMA Downtown
Tao: …We went to a hotel in Tokyo to give Kamina-san his gift, but for some reason we came back with a whole bunch of souvenirs.
Kuguri: He served us tea and sweets at our arrival, and handed scarves and gloves as we left… Along with heat packs, socks and rice balls to bring back.
Kuguri: Even more gifts may be coming Nagi’s way after the tournament, don’t you think?
Tao: Well, we delivered the gift with no problems, so we’re all good…
Tao: What do we do about Murakumo-san?
Tao: He told Hachinoya-san he’ll be partying all night with his college friends at his parents’ sushi restaurant, but that turned out to be a lie.
Kuguri: I was satisfied just seeing your face the moment we saw the sushi restaurant was dark and empty.
Kuguri: With that said, I suppose we can head back now.
Tao: Nope, we can’t.
Tao: *sigh*... Isn’t it gonna be, like, impossible to find Murakumo-san on Christmas Eve of all days when we’ve got no idea where he is…?
Kuguri: …Good grief. You leave me no choice.
Tao: Kuguri-san?
*phone rings*
Kuguri: Yes, hello? Lány?
Kuguri: There’s someone I’d like you to locate using your information network… Yes. Right now.
Kuguri: Who am I looking for? …Fufu. A man whose shocked face I’d just love to see…♪

The operation will commence tomorrow at 2 AM, on the night of Christmas Eve, when everyone will be asleep.
I’ll sneak into their rooms quietly and slip my handmade bath bombs (filled with flower petals) under their pillows.
Of course, I’ll also deliver the presents to those who won’t be present at HAMA House at that time—
Sonia: …I think that will be a little too hard to pull off, Nagi-shan.
Location: Flower Laundry
Sonia: Pleash take a closer look at the map we marked after getting everyone’s plans for Christmas Eve.
Sonia: Between just Chihiro-shan’s home and Yukikaze-shan’s hotel, it’d take at leasht two whole hours to make the trip!
Sonia: Maybe you should just give them the presents directly on the 25th…
Nagi: No way. If I was gonna do that, I would’ve made something better than some plain old bath bombs.
Nagi: The surprise factor is what adds value to my simple present.
Sonia: That's not true at all! You put in a lot of effort to choose the flowers that would match everyone individually!
Nagi: Yeah, so about that… Maybe it’d weird them out since I practically labelled them based on what I think, so let’s just keep this detail between us.
Sonia: Wha!? Shtop acting like that, geez—! (bop, bop)
*Sonia hits Nagi*
Nagi: Ouch, ow ow…
Liguang: Oi. What are you quarreling over?
Nagi: Oh, Liguang-san…?
~~~
Liguang: As I’d thought, your plot to be Santa wasn’t over back then.
Nagi: I can’t believe asking Sojun-san about your plans for Christmas Eve backfired on me like this…
Nagi: The surprise is no more…
Sonia: The plan wash imposshible from the shtart.
Nagi: No it wasn’t.
Sonia: Yesh it wash.
Nagi: It’s only over when you give up—
Liguang: Shut up.
Nagi: ……
Sonia: ……
Nagi: …Sorry, Sonia.
Nagi: I just thought that if I could be Santa—
Nagi: ( —If I could be Santa, then maybe even someone like me could be part of a happy Christmas scene.)
Nagi: I thought I could do it, but maybe it was too much of a reach for someone like me…
Sonia: Nagi-shan…
Nagi: I know you were just worried about me.
Sonia: I should’ve worded it better… I’m shorry too.
Sonia: But I’m shuper happy that you have so many preshents to give this year that you can’t even hold it all in your arms.
Nagi: …Yeah.
Sonia: Nfufu.
Liguang: ……
Liguang: (Can’t hold it all… huh.)
~~~(flashback)
Sojun: You’ve returned sooner than expected. Was there not a Christmas party at the company?
Liguang: …I showed up, that’s more than enough. I have work to do now.
Sojun: I’ll help.
Liguang: No, it’s fine. It’s not something I need help with. You should get some rest—
———(flashback)
Nagi: It’s a silly thing so… It’s not worth getting anyone’s help for…
Sojun: He’s a little similar to you, Boss.
Location: Flower Laundry
Liguang: (In the end, I always end up with more things to treasure, so much so they spill out of my hands with my inability to protect them all—)
Liguang: …Similar, huh.
Liguang: Hachinoya, hand me a pen.
Nagi: Is black fine? We also have blue, fluorescent pink and even a clickable one with all the colors of the rainbow—
Liguang: Just give me a regular one.
*sound of pen scritching*
Liguang: ……
Liguang: Hachinoya, this is my Christmas present for you.
Nagi: This is…
Nagi: The “Dancing Bonito Flakes” card. It has a strong field effect that immobilizes all other cards for three whole turns…!
Liguang: Look at the back.
Nagi: Uh…
Nagi: (There’s something written in English with skillful penmanship… Um…)
Nagi: I can’t read it because I only graduated middle school.
Sonia: I’ll read it for you. Let’s shee…
Sonia: “No man is a failure who has friends.” This is a phrase from a famous Christmas movie*!
Nagi: What does it mean?
Sonia: It means that you haven’t failed if you have friends!
Nagi: …Friends…
Liguang: ……
Liguang: I assume that map shows the field of operations.
Liguang: …We’ll need about three more people.
Notes:
The quote is from the movie "It's a Wonderful Life."
Nagi: I know I said that what I wanted to do wasn’t worth getting help from anyone else, but I went ahead and roped you into it anyways. Sorry about that.
Liguang: ……
Nagi: But you were the coolest reindeer of them all. The one I drew on the cardboard was no match for you. The kids definitely appreciated it a lot too.
Liguang: I see. I’m glad it worked out, but you better make sure the photos taken back there don’t get spread around.
Nagi: Of course, I’ll get Miss Elisa’s help for that too. I can’t thank you enough for today, truly.
Sonia: I’d like to thank you for your time ash well, Liguang-shan!
Liguang: Consider the favor repaid with this. You got to play Santa as you wished, right?
Nagi: …Yeah.
Raito: Nagi, Liguang, you’re here.
Chief: Welcome back! Looks like Sonia’s here too!
Nagi: We’re back, Chief, Raito-san.
Nagi: Is the stuff you’re carrying for…
Chief: The party, yep! We’re already done decorating, actually.
Raito: There’s still time before Christmas, but we’re holding it early since we’ve got people who have plans on the day of.
Chief: We thought we’d just hold a small get-together with whoever’s free, but Kafka was really gung-ho about it, wanting to put together a whole party with everyone at HAMA Tours.
Liguang: Kamina prepared a large quantity of gyoza and turkey in his excitement, considering it’s his last break before his next competition.
Chief: Right, he did! You must’ve seen the whole thing huh, Liguang-san…?
Chief: (Wait, why is he wearing a reindeer headband…?)
Liguang: ? What is it?
Chief: Nothing! Just, uh, looking forward to the Christmas party!
Raito: Everyone chipped in to decorate the living room splendidly. Come inside so you can see it yourself. You too, Sonia.
Sonia: I can’t wait!
Liguang: It’s not like we’re children anymore… I’ll head in after parking the car.
Nagi: In other words, I’m gonna be buried under a pile of happiness soon… A danger zone that’ll have my Yajirobe spazz out if I’m not careful…
Chief: I’m fully prepared to accept as many flowers as you wanna give, so don’t worry too much, Nagi-kun!
~~~
Location: HAMA House - Living Room
Renga: Sorry I’m late! The party hasn’t started without me, right!?
Shuumai: Woof woof!
Sakujiro: Excellent work today. There is still plenty of food and drink to go around.
Yodaka: I’ve put aside some champagne that’s perfect for this holy night. Freshen up so we can all enjoy it together.
Renga: Really? Okay, I’ll be right back—...
Liguang: Oi. What’s that slack-jawed face for?
Renga: Wha– Pfft, haha! What’s with that headband you’re wearing!?
Liguang: !!
Renga: Ahahaha! That’s way too cute! It’s perfect for you!
Ten: Right~? Man, no one pointed it out this whole time, so it was hard keeping it in… Pfft.
Ten: There’s always folks who forget to take off their headband after leaving the amusement park. I need to know, just who were you fooling around with~?
Liguang: Tch!
Chief: (He really just forgot about it…!?)
Kafka: Huh? You didn’t just put it on because you were excited for the party?
Kafka: I mean, it looks so good on you~♪
Raito: Indeed. I was almost jealous of how prepared you were for tonight.
Yachiyo: I’d like to match with the big boss too! Just where did you get your hands on that?
Liguang: …Shut up.
*door slams shut*
Nayuki: He left…
Daniel: Prolly best to forget about the whole thing, for his sake.
Chief: (Liguang-san, I’m so sorry I didn’t point it out to you earlier… But… It really did look good on you…!)
Nagi: …Chief. Do you think Santa can make it down the chimney safely?
Chief: Huh?
Chief: (His face is flushed… Looks like Nagi-kun is in drunk-mode again…)
Nagi: The chimneys of yore were always packed full of soot, so Santa was probably in danger all the time, huffing up all those ashes and staining his white beard black.
Nagi: But did you know, the chimneys on a ship aren’t called chimneys at all, they’re actually called funnels. I wonder if they could fly in the sky.
Sonia: N-Nagi-shan is going around and asking everyone what their plans for Chrishtmash Eve are!
Chief: Ahaha… So that’s it. Thank you for clearing that up, Sonia.
Chief: I’ll be going abroad to meet my family this year. I should be back by the 25th.
Chief: What about you, Nagi-kun?
Toi: Oh my…!
Chief: Hm?
Toi: …I read this exact same line recently in Prince Chariot’s route from the game “Maiden’s Lariat on this Holy Night”!!
Toi: Maybe, just maybe, this could lead to a date event…!?
Akuta: A d–d-date…!? You mean like when the rain turns to snow at midnight and the silent holy night is no longer holy!?
Chief: Ahaha, it’s not like that. I’m just curious about what Nagi-kun will be up to since he asked me first.
Chief: You must be busy with work, huh?
Nagi: Of course, I’ll be very busy. Being Santa is serious business.
Nagi: Getting to be Santa sounds like a dream job but in reality it’s not so glamorous and requires a lot of work to pull off. I’ve been meaning to take the qualification exam sometime but did you know that they require you to carry a huge bag filled with presents and run over 50 meters and climb a ladder and slide down the chimney and clean off six cookies and a glass of milk– all under two minutes? If it weren’t for the time limit I would’ve taken the exam already. But the more I wait, the harder it’ll get as I grow older. And, and, there’s even more hurdles. Like swearing an oath only using Ho Ho Ho—
Sonia: I-I have to ashk! What about everyone elshe’s plans?
Toi: After we close our shops, Ani-sama and I will spend time together and exchange presents! Ohh, I can’t wait to see what he got me~♪
Akuta: I’mma enjoy the holidays right here at HAMA house!! The epic Project C is reaching peak SO!! Gotta recharge while I can!!
Nagi: Hohoho. Hoho. Hoho Hohoho.
Sonia: Nagi-shan, we should go get some fresh air so you can shober up. Now!
Nagi: Hoho…
Chief: Hahaha!
Chief: (I’m glad Nagi-kun’s enjoying Christmas in his own way…)
Special thanks to Mou for brainstorming the trading card names with me!
Location: Inside Liguang’s Car
Nagi: Ah, take a right around that corner…
Liguang: Right? There aren’t any hospitals in that direction.
Nagi: You have good eyes… or should I say ears…
Liguang: I’m asking you if you’re fine not going to a hospital.
Nagi: Yes, I’m okay…
Nagi: Rice puff… Muuun…
Liguang: Oi, stop making those bears in the car.
Nagi: Don’t worry. I don’t get carsick easily.
Liguang: That’s not the point.
Nagi: (I need to make up for the bouquets I gave away at the station… Good thing I brought extra material with me.)
Liguang: …*sigh*
Nagi: I’m sorry for jumping out in front of your car all of a sudden. I narrowly escaped death thanks to your reflexes, I think.
Liguang: (I’d rather not think about the other outcome…)
Nagi: I’ll gladly hand over my bone marrow, or anything else you might want, so could you please drop me off at a certain place?
Liguang: (...He’s got some guts.)
Nagi: I absolutely have to give these presents to them—
Liguang: ……
Liguang: Alright. I’ll do it as repayment for the wreaths.

Location: Orphanage - Luca Leaf House
Liguang: This is…
Liguang: “Luca Leaf House”...
Liguang: (An orphanage…)
Liguang: (I see. I understand why he wanted to be Santa now.)
Nagi: Um… Liguang-san. Were you heading somewhere?
Liguang: Hm? Ah, I was on my way back home after finishing some work. Don’t mind me.
Nagi: The thing is… I made a reindeer out of cardboard for this, but um… After a series of unfortunate events, it’s all beat up now…
Liguang: (What the hell is this surreal looking reindeer drawn on the cardboard…? Don’t tell me he was planning on doing one of his comedy skits with this.)
Nagi: But lucky for me, I found a reindeer headband in the emergency bag that Sonia packed for me…
Liguang: ……
Nagi: Would you…
Liguang: I see. Take care.
???: Nagi! Welcome back!
Nagi: Ah, Miss Elisa.
Elisa: Did your hair grow a little longer again?
Nagi: Yep. I forgot to cut it.
Liguang: ……
Elisa: Are you a friend of Nagi’s? I’m Elisa, a caretaker here at the orphanage. It’s nice to meet you.
Liguang: Likewise. I’m Liguang Lu.
Elisa: So is he the “Mr. Reindeer” you said you’d be bringing along this year?
Nagi: Yep.
Liguang: …Huh?
Elisa: Please, come in! You must have been so cold outside. The children are beside themselves waiting for you!
Children full of energy: YAAAAAY, IT’S SANTA AND HIS REINDEER!!
Nagi: Hi everyone. It’s a little early but, Merry Christmas. Santa’s got you all presents.
Tiny little girl: Was I a good girl this year…?
Nagi: Yep. A very good girl. Bunny or teddy, which one do you want?
Tiny little girl: Um, um, the bunny.
Nagi: Then, will you be friends with bunny?
Tiny little girl: Yeah…! T-Thank you!
Liguang: ……
Mischievous little boy: Wooooahhh! Mr. Reindeer is so HUGE! And COOL!
Curious little boy: Hey hey, Mr. Reindeer, where’d you come from? How fast can you fly through the sky? How do you split the profits with Santa?
Liguang: …O-Oi, Hachinoya.
Nagi: Hey guys, our reindeer this year is the toughest of them all. I think you’re at the age where you can appreciate the depth of a strong and silent type.
The boys: Woooah, that’s so cool!
Liguang: ……
Liguang: …*sigh*
Liguang: So, what have you been handing out all this while? The flower arrangement you were making in the car and… cards?
Nagi: Thank you for asking. This is a “Frame of Happiness trading card” made by yours truly.
Liguang: (Trading cards…? Is it something like that MotG that Kamina enjoys?)
Little girl who’s hooked on Happiness TCG: Take this! “Sunshine at your Heel!”
Little boy who’s hooked on Happiness TCG: So waaaarm~ I’m full of happiness now~
Little girl who’s hooked on Happiness TCG: Right~? So happy~ What card did you get, Yuu-kun?
Little boy hooked on Happiness TCG: “The Sigh When you Sink into the Bath!”
Little girl hooked on Happiness TCG: Wow~ That’s a really relaxing power!
Little boy hooked on Happiness TCG: Mr. Santa! What does “Finding Orion at First Glance” mean?
Nagi: Ooh, this is a really powerful card. You see, the Orion constellation is…
Liguang: ……
Innocent little girl: Hey hey, Mr. Reindeer.
Liguang: Hm?
Innocent little girl: Why’s your nose not red?
Liguang: …Because it wasn’t too cold outside.
Innocent little girl: Oh! That’s good then!
Innocent little girl: I got two of this card, so I’ll give you one as thanks for coming today!
Liguang: Thank you. Let’s see…
Liguang: “Dancing Bonito Flakes Fever”...
Liguang: …Pfft.
Elisa: Liguang-san, thank you so much for coming here today.
Liguang: Not at all… I was hired as last minute help. I haven’t done much to receive gratitude.
Elisa: You played along with Nagi and cheered up all the kids. That’s more than enough in my book.
Elisa: That boy… He lived here until he finished middle school. Back then, he had a difficult time talking to the other children.
Elisa: He was the kind of kid you’d always find spacing out while hugging his knees…
Elisa: I’m honestly surprised to see he’s grown into such an expressive adult.
Liguang: ……
Elisa: I thought he was expressionless, but perhaps…
Nagi: Yep. That was a good match. You’re both so strong.
Elisa: Perhaps he was holding onto all the little happinesses he came across and keeping them close to his heart.
Little boy hooked on Happiness TCG: Yay~ It’s a draw!
Nagi: …Glue the eyes to the chrysanthemum, and attach the felt ears…
Nagi: Add some puffed rice into the wrapper and tie it off with a ribbon…
Nagi: Muun…
Nagi: (After which I cast a charm of happiness— And that’s a wrap on the “Bunny Bouquet.”)
Nagi: (Yup. As I thought, working on the bouquets in the living room wards off the sleepiness compared to working on it back in my room.)
Nagi: Onto the next one.
Nagi: (Next is the Teddy Bouquet. Add the eyes to the chrysanthemum…)
Nagi: (The ears… Puffed rice…)
Nagi: (Charm…)
Nagi: …*snore*
Nagi: —*gasp*
Nagi: This isn’t good… My consciousness is floating away like the seeds of a dandelion…
Nagi: Fluffy…
Nagi: (T-There’s a weight… on my back…)
Nagi: (Could this possibly be the first encounter with one of the Seven Wonders of HAMA House: “The fairy that pulls you under if it catches you past midnight”...?)
Kuguri: Mhm, that would be because I’m putting all my weight on you.
*Nagi keeps sinking down*
Nagi: Once again, the shepherd's purse is crushed gently… by the ever beautiful lily… augh…
~~~
Tao: Argh, that last round didn’t go well. I seriously messed up my reload timing.
Tao: I’ll just grab an energy drink and move on to the next match…
???: Can’t… Breathe…
Tao: Huh… Who’s groaning? No one’s supposed to be in the living room… The heck…
Kuguri: Hello, maci.
Tao: Woah, Kuguri-san, what are you doing here by yoursel–
Tao: W-Why are you on top of Hachinoya-san!?
Nagi: T-Tao…
Tao: What are you doing!? Please get off of him!
Kuguri: That’s too bad. I simply wanted to enjoy the warmth of a pale flower for a little longer.
Nagi: Phew… I was almost flattened… But I was also surrounded by Kuguri-san’s nice scent in the meantime, so I guess I broke even…? No, it might be better than even…
Tao: Are you alright, Hachinoya-san? What are you two even doing out here this late? It’s 4 AM, y’know.
Nagi: *gasp* This is no good. I need to get ready to head to the market.
Nagi: See you later, Tao, Kuguri-san.
*Nagi runs off*
Tao: Sure…
Tao: It sorta looked like he’s working on something with his flowers… I wonder if he’s been working at night too?
Kuguri: My, hard workers have it hard, don't they? December is something of a bonus month meant for relaxing.
Tao: You slack off, like, every month though…

Location: Flower Laundry
Sonia: Yesh… Got it. Thank you for your order~
Sonia: Nagi-shan, we got an additional requesht on a pending order! I’ve left the note over here!
Nagi: Got it. The other Christmas bouquets are also perfectly done.
Sonia: The one that will be picked up at noon, yesh? I’ll keep it safe in the storage.
Sonia: Shtill, it’s a good thing we have sho many customers~
Nagi: This is a special holiday for florists. We should make good use of it.
Sonia: That reminds me, did you finish making the bouquets you plan to hand out later today?
Nagi: There’s still three left. The atmospheric pressure isn’t looking good today, so I’m taking the bus. I’ll make them on the way.
Sonia: In that case, it’s probably besht if you leave now while you have two hours to shpare, beshides the time you need for travelling.
Sonia: If you manage to get there early, you could always take it easy at the cafe nearby.
Nagi: Huh? But…
Sonia: It's okay! You can leave the shop to me!
Sonia: Here you go, the usual shafety and emergency bag packed by yours truly!
Sonia: It’s got the bandages you losht lasht time, your helmet and whistle, and I’ve even put in shome extra cat toys and nyao-churu*!
Nagi: Sonia…
Nagi: Thank you. These are all really handy.
Nagi: I’ll be off, then.
~~~
Location: HAMA Downtown
Nagi: (For a moment, I was worried when I ended up diving headfirst into a gaggle of cats while trying to avoid a snowdrift, but I was saved thanks to Sonia’s items.)
Nagi: (I managed to get to the station safe and sound. There’s still time before the bus arrives, it’s almost scary how smoothly this is going.)
Nagi: (Alright, I should use this time to make the remaining three Teddy Bouquets…)
Baby of the person sitting nearby: Da~
Nagi: Wah.
Nagi: (A tiny hand just grabbed onto one of the chrysanthemums…)
Baby’s Papa: Oh! C’mon, don’t do that. I’m so sorry for the trouble…!
Nagi: It’s okay…
Baby of the person sitting nearby: Uua?
Nagi: ……
Nagi: Muun…
Nagi: (Grow up healthy and strong—)
Baby of the person sitting nearby: ?
Nagi: …Um. You can have this, if you’d like. As a present.
Baby’s Papa: Wait, really?
Nagi: Yes. He seems to like it, and I have plenty to spare, so—
Madam with a strong presence: Oh my, how wonderful! Could I have 3 of those teddies for my children too!?
Nagi: Um, uh, huh?
Kids with a strong presence: Wooow–! So cuuute! Gimme gimme gimme!
Nagi: Awawa…
Nagi: S-Sure, here you go. Three teddies.
Kids with a strong presence: I don’t like this ribbon!
Nagi: Okay. I’ll change it for you, so let me know which color you like. Red? Alright, take this one.
Nagi: The chrysanthemums are delicate, so be careful not to crush them by accident. Yep, I’m glad you like them too—
*sound of the bus leaving*
Nagi: …Ah.
Nagi: Excuse me, please wait. I need to get on too…!
~~~
Nagi: *out of breath*
Speedy delivery guy: Get outta the way! I gotta deliver this pizza within five minutes!
*Nagi slides to the right*
Nagi: Woah.
Kind worker: Watch out for that traffic cone!!
*Nagi hops back to the middle*
Nagi: Not a problem.
Taco vendor passing through: Welcome~ Happiness from the other side of the world, now at your doorstep~ Would you like to try our Mexican Avocado Tacos~
*Nagi slips and falls backwards*
Nagi: —Ah.
Nagi: (Turns out the skin of an avocado is pretty slippery too…)
Woman: That’s some gymnastics you just went through but, are you alright!?
Man: That spine’s arched so soundly even a lobster would be surprised…! Is your back okay!? I’ll call for an ambulance right now…!
Nagi: (I won’t make it in time if I’m loaded off in an ambulance…)
*Nagi gets back up*
Nagi: D-Don’t worry about it. Goodbye…!
*sound of tires screeching to a halt*
Nagi: Oh.
Terrified witness A: Yikes, that guy just dived in front of that clearly luxurious looking car…
Terrified witness B: He’s a goner…
Nagi: (...I wonder if I can reach a settlement with them. If I’m forced to work in some underground empire, I’ll need to check in with Kafka whether side-jobs are okay or not…)
*sound of a car window rolling down*
Liguang: What the hell are you doing, Hachinoya.
Notes:
Nagi specifically uses pompon mums for his bouquets this time, which is a smaller and round variety of chrysanthemums.
Chrysanthemums in flower language can mean "noble," "believe in me," and "I love you" (specifically 君を愛す - kimi wo aisu, which is slightly different from the usual 愛してる - aishiteru)
Nyao-churu seems to be a play on ciao-churu which is a cat food brand.
Nagi: So this is what Chinese tea prepared by Liguang-san tastes like… I can feel a millennium of history spreading its warmth through my insides…
Nagi: The tea is delicious, the room warms me from the feet up, the chair is really soft, and the bunnies are super fluffy.
Nagi: Am I already in heaven…?
Linxing: Ahaha, you’re soo funny!
Xingbing: Well aren’t you just a hoot, Hachinoya-kun!
*Nagi slides back*
Nagi: Oh! Um…uh… thank you…?
Linxing: Yeah, we don’t have guys like you at my school! An airhead… Or no, that’s not exactly it… What type are you?
Nagi: Type…? Um, I guess you could say I’m like a shepherd's purse*…
Linxing and Xingbing: A weed type!
Linxing: The vibes are so on point! I gotta tell my boyfriend~♪
Xingbing: Wait, your wrists are so thin! Go on, eat some kumquats with your tea. How about you join us for dinner too?
Nagi: Um, uh, I’m…
Liguang: ….*sigh*
Liguang: Oi, Hachinoya. Why were you passed out in the middle of the street?
Linxing: Right, that! I was SO surprised when I saw Sojun carry you back here!
Nagi: I’m sorry for surprising you. And I’m also sorry a snow-soaked mouse like me was lying in a luxurious bed like that…
Sojun: You should direct your gratitude to the boss.
Liguang: Let’s get back on track. Were you mugged?
Nagi: That’s…um… I couldn’t keep up with the repayments….
Nagi: (Because of my debt of happiness…)
Linxing and Xingbing: Repayments…!?
Nagi: (December is a month full of events that’d make me feel fortunate… So the Yajirobe of Fortune and Misfortune tends to lean too much to one side…)
Liguang: (The end of the year tends to be a popular time for loan repayment…)
Linxing: (So he’s in debt… No wonder his wrists are as thin as a weed…)
Xingbing: (I teased him saying he must’ve had to eat weeds to get by, but now feel bad for laughing at him without knowing the details…)
Liguang: Managing a store isn’t easy work, I’m sure you have your share of troubles at this time of year. Do you have a repayment plan set in place?
Nagi: Yep. I’m managing, somehow. I’m making little accessories every night and slowly paying it all back.
Liguang: (A side hustle… He works at HAMA Tours on top of his job as a florist who handles a laundromat… Just how many jobs is he planning to take on?)
Xingbing: (Is this what they call burning the candle at both ends…? Now I’m just sad.)
Nagi: There’s also a lot of things I wanted to do this month, so I haven’t been sleeping much either…
Linxing: So that’s why… You’ve had it rough…
Xingbing: I’ve got it.
Xingbing: Liguang, you’re gonna help out Hachinoya-kun. We might not be able to pay back his debts for him, but you can at least find a way to help him do the things he wants to do.
Liguang: …Need I remind you that I’m too busy cleaning up after a certain someone’s mess because she couldn't pick out the right party favors for the Lurong Family’s Christmas party?
Xingbing: These are two separate things.
Liguang: In other words, you agree you need to wipe your own ass.
Xingbing: What? Where’s the respect? Who do you think wiped YOUR ass when you were a baby—
Nagi: Woah… So this is a real fight among siblings…
Liguang and Xingbing: ? Huh?
Linxing: Ahaha, sorry about this. They fight like this all the time. Did it scare you?
Nagi: No, not at all. Fights among families remain a pipe dream to me, so I can’t help but feel moved when I see any in person.
Nagi: (The fights between Raito-san and Nayuki-san move me too, but those tend to be a little one-sided…)
Nagi: Please don’t mind me and continue.
Xingbing: Sorry, sorry. We’re not gonna fight anymore, right, Liguang?
Liguang: Tch…
Nagi: (They stopped fighting because of me… I should just keep my mouth shut next time.)
Linxing: Hey hey Nagi-kun, about that box you were carrying. Were those Christmas wreaths in them? They’re so small and adorable!
Nagi: Thank you. I made it together with Sonia… She’s family.
Linxing: Aw, that’s nice… Oh!
Linxing: Hey, how about we use these for the party favors?
Linxing: There’s a ton of them, so let’s just buy them all! This way, we’d be helping Nagi-kun with his debt too!
Nagi: Huh.
Liguang: …You’ve got a point.
Xingbing: It’s the perfect size, and fits the season too. Not to mention—
Liguang and Xingbing: It can count as an auspicious gift too.
Nagi: Amazing. You’re in perfect harmony. So this is sibling power…
*clapping*
Liguang and Xingbing: ……
Xingbing: So Hachinoya-kun, will you sell it to us?
Nagi: Oh… Of course, I’d be more than happy to.
Xingbing: That’s settled then! We’ll throw in a little extra, and even lend you my brilliant little brother to boot!
Liguang: What?
Xingbing: Now that we’ve wrapped up one job, you have more free time on your hands!
Liguang: ……
~~~
Location: Inside Liguang’s Car
Nagi: (...Wow, not only did they buy all my wreaths—)
Nagi: (Liguang-san’s dropping me off at my place… with an armful of souvenirs too.)
Nagi: Um, I wanted to thank you, for everything. I don’t have much, but I’d like to repay you… Maybe I can give you my kidney—
Liguang: You don’t need to thank me. This was a mutually beneficial transaction. Frankly, I didn’t want to waste my time thinking about party favors, so you’ve helped me out as well.
Nagi: Woah… So this is what you call a win-win situation…
Liguang: ……
Liguang: If you’re lacking in funds or resources, I can offer you help.
Nagi: ?
Liguang: Earlier, you said there were things you wanted to do. Was it not important enough that you’d work yourself to the point of passing out?
Nagi: Oh… You don’t have to worry about that, I’ll handle it myself. Thank you very much.
Nagi: ……
Liguang: ……
Nagi: Uh… Well…
Nagi: (Is it rude if I don’t explain why I refused his offer…?)
Nagi: Well, you see… What I want is…
Nagi: To be Santa.
Liguang: Santa?
Nagi: He’s the old man who hands out presents.
Liguang: I know that.
Nagi: I decided I want to be the old man who hands out presents, so… I’ve been making preparations in secret…
Nagi: It’s a silly thing so… It’s not worth getting anyone’s help for…
Liguang: ……
Nagi: Besides, I do this alone every year … I’ll wrap this up like a piece of cake and end the year with a piece of cake too.
*silence*
Liguang: …I see. Sojun, raise the temperature for a bit.*
Sojun: Understood, boss.
~~~
Sojun: We’ve arrived.
Nagi: Thank you for saving me today. I’ll never forget this debt. To be more specific, I’m willing to set aside the main dish and dessert from now on—
Liguang: No need. You can leave now.
*Nagi bows and gets out of the car*
Liguang: (Nagi Hachinoya. What a strange fellow.)
Sojun: He’s a little similar to you, Boss.
Liguang: What?
Sojun: Nothing.
Liguang: Perhaps you should take a vacation soon. It looks like fatigue has affected your thinking capabilities.
Sojun: No, I’m fine…
Notes:
Nagi associates himself to the Shepherd's Purse, considering himself plain and unwanted. In flower language it means "I offer you my all."
In Japan it's common to say "it's cold" when a joke falls flat.

Child who is excited for Christmas: Mama Mama! What do you think Santa is gonna get me this year?
Mother who is looking forward to Christmas: It’d be nice if you got the Chogokin* HAMA Landmark Robo DX you’ve been wanting.
???: …would you…
Salaryman who resents this time of year: So damn cold! To hell with this season! Who made it legal to walk around in this weather!?
Nagi: Would you like some…
Salaryman who resents this time of year: Huh? Are they working me so hard that I’m hallucinating now…?
Nagi: Would you like some handcrafted wreaths…
Salaryman who resents this time of year: Waugh—!? W-What do you want!?
Nagi: This handcrafted wreath is the perfect decoration for Christmas. If you hang it up on your door, not only will it lift your mood with the Christmas spirit, it’s also imbued with prayers of prosperity and good harvest for the new year, as well as ward against evil spirits—
Salaryman who resents this time of year: You’re one of those weirdos who pop up at the end of the year… Go away! I don’t have time to deal with the likes of you!
*walks away*
Nagi: Oh…
Child who is excited for Christmas: Mama, that person…
Mother who’s looking forward to Christmas: L-Let’s leave, Takashi-chan. Mama will make sure to report that suspicious person, okay?
*hurries away*
Nagi: ……
Nagi: (Suspicious… I guess I should just crawl into a corner…)
Restaurant employee who’s prickly after working 15 days in a row: Hey! Don’t peddle your stuff in front of the restaurant! Shoo, shoo!
*Nagi jumps back*
Nagi: S-Sorry.
Nagi: *sigh* I can’t feel my hands anymore…
Nagi: (Right… The weather forecast did say the temperature would fall below freezing at night…)
Nagi: (Sonia and I worked hard on making these wreaths together, so I’d like to sell as many as I can before it gets too late…)
Nagi: I should cover these with a handkerchief so that the snow doesn’t pile up on them…
*bell chimes*
Man enjoying Christmas with his girlfriend: This restaurant is great!
Woman enjoying Christmas with her boyfriend: Yeah! Thank you for making the reservation~♪
Nagi: …Oh.
Nagi: (I can see two brothers inside the warm restaurant, digging into some turkey as they sit in a circle with their family…)
Nagi: (“Brother, the turkey legs are both mine, okay?”)
Nagi: (“You’re so naive. True connoisseurs know that the turkey oyster* is the best part…!)
Nagi: That’s all for the voiceover.
Nagi: ……
Nagi: Yeah, I should just go. I need to get Sonia her treats, and a fried chicken sandwich… Ugh—
*Nagi falls*
Nagi: …The snow is so cold… Freezing me with no mercy…
Nagi: (...I guess eating only tofu with barbeque sauce for three days straight was a bit too much…)
Nagi: (I might freeze to death in the middle of this big city—)
*Nagi blacks out*
??: Oi.
Nagi: (Ah… So they’ve finally come for me.)
???: …of yourself.
Nagi: (Huh… Angels sound a lot more… manlier than I’d thought…)
I love the Christmas movies they play at this time of year.
Family who come back for you when you’d thought they’d left you behind, being saved by an angel when you felt like dying*… I just like how these movies have something miraculous happen at the climax and reach a happy ending.
It fills you with the kind of hope that says such a warm and welcoming world is right around the corner…
Location: Lu Family House - Liguang’s Room
Nagi: This is…
Nagi: (An electric hearth, fancy looking furniture, and silky sheets… It even smells heavenly… Woah, this fluffy bed could fit at least ten of me in it…)
Nagi: (And last but not least.)
Rabbit: Pui.
Nagi: (A bunny to cuddle with…)
Nagi: So this is what they call transmigrating into another world, huh…
Rabbit: Chu.
Nagi: Are you trying to guide me somewhere?
Lively woman’s voice: *sigh* I’m sure you’ll be able to manage it somehow.
Gruff male voice: Even if we prepared the same gifts as last time…
Cheerful girl’s voice: No way~ It’d be way too boring to use the same stuff again.
Lively woman’s voice: Stop grumbling and get to work.
Gruff man’s voice: Every single time, you manage to increase my workload at the end of the year. What a pain…
Lively Woman’s voice: You wanna say that to my face?
Nagi: ……
Nagi: Looks like this isn’t another world, but rather—
Nagi: A bunny café…
Sojun: Wrong.
Note:
Chōgōkin (超合金) - Meaning "Super Alloy", the term originated as a fictional material from which the robot Mazinger Z was built.
Oyster here refers to the meat near the spine of a fowl
Nagi's narration is referencing two famous Christmas movies: Home Alone and It's a Wonderful Life.
The Christmas event translation is finally here! Sorry that it's so late but I hope you enjoy this wholesome event centered on Nagi as much as I did!
I did the bulk of the event out of sheer excitement but thank you Dimi for handling Ch 7 (and ev3ns in general) and Jelly for handling Ch 8!
Thank you Myun and peko for doing PR for this event!
Synopsis:
Christmas season has arrived at HAMA once again. Families and couples walk along the streets happily as they take in the sparkling illuminations that decorate the town. The anticipation for a white Christmas is at an all time high as snowfall has coated the scenery earlier than expected.
At the edge of this town filled with smiles stands Nagi, with a box full of handmade wreaths for sale. After fainting outside and almost freezing to death, he is coincidentally found and picked up by Liguang, with whom he shares his plan of "becoming Santa."
Nagi, who has gotten used to not relying on anyone else for all these years was determined to carry out this mission solo, but with the frequency of his accidents increasing and having many more people to give presents to this year—
Will he be able to complete this mission safely?
Can he find a reliable reindeer to be his partner?
Most importantly, will he be able to enjoy this white Christmas to the fullest himself?
