Silverwing Posted December 20, 2013 A December evening at the Silverwing Household, Ryomou: "Keep it up Alice, the tree is looking great." "Yes, I still don't understand why I cannot categorize the ornaments by color spectrum though." Ryomou: "Probably because we only have two colors of ornaments." Alice: "Perhaps. Regardless, You really did pick out a wonderful tree Ericka." Ericka: "Thanks!" Ericka: "It looks wonderful girls! Might need more cowbell though. hehe." Meanwhile... Saber: "Can I open it now!?" Aoko: "No." Saber: "Aww, Come on! I have been a good girl this year too!" Aoko: "I wouldn't call wiping out the air conditioner to make us spend the day in our underwear last summer, and holding nendo gladitorial matches in the bathtub being 'a good girl'." Saber: "But I smell cake in there!" Ryomou: "Is that the last of them?" Aoko: "Yeah, Now we just need to get everybody down here." Saber: "Please master? Just a peek? I promise I won't tell Sakura and Suzuka that you let me open it early!" Aoko: "Saber, go sit down you'll get to open it soon enough." Alice: "So how does it look? I tried to follow the instructions." Aoko: "It looks absolutely gorgeous, Alice!" Ryomou: "So it looks like we are all set." Saber: "Indeed, I am ready to open my gift!" Aoko: "Slow down everybody, we have to make sure Asuka is here first. I'll go wake her up." Aoko: *clank clank* "Come on missy, I know you love your bed, but you can't sleep the entire day away." Asuka: "Mmmm go away baka...." Asuka: "Ugh, What do you want!? It's my day off. If I want to sleep all day it's on me." Aoko: "I suppose sleeping all day had nothing to do with staying up all night playing Skyrim with Papa huh?" Asuka: "None of your business. Besides, I'm comfortable." Aoko: "You know what? You're right, this bed does look awfully comfortable, I hope you don't mind if I just crawl in here with you...." Asuka: "Fine! I'm up! Hmmph. let's get this over with." Later... Asuka: "Oooh...looks like I got here just in time to see Saber have a meltdown." Alice: "Yes." Saber: "IT'S MINE! IT EVEN HAS MY NAME ON IT! LET GO OF MY LEG!" Ryomou: "Saber, stop it, we still have to wait for Aoko to get back." Saber: "Aoko?" Aoko: "Ahem..." Saber: "Oh, Hello master! Mou-chan, You can let go of my leg now as I am quite done stretching...." Aoko: "Saberrrrrrrgh!" *clenches fist* *Beeeeeeeeeeeeeeep* Ryomou: "So does this mean I start first?" Aoko: "Yep, I guess we'll just go in a circle." Saber: "Ohhhh, my head, my poor beautiful head...." Ryomou: "Oh! I got candy. It looks like a kind of toffee! yumm! *Blows kiss* "Thank you so much Suzuka and Misaya! I'll be sure to enjoy it." Ericka: "Eeee! Me next! Me next!" "Awww, I got cute lacy shoes! they even have heels!" "I can wear these with my meido outfit! Thank you Sakaki! They are soooo cute!" Saber: "So...so can I open mine now?..." Aoko: "Yes. Now you can open it." *SHRRRRED!* Saber: "Oh...Oh my...." Saber: "AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! It's a caek! and it's all mineeee! Hehehehe! Woohoo!" Aoko: "Saber, Pantsu are showing..." Saber: "Don't care!" Ryomou: "I think she likes it. Thank you Sakura and Suzuka." Aoko: "Aww, these are adorable! Petite figures of Saber and I! Thank you Sakaki, I can put these up in my workshop!" Ryomou: "Hey, Asuka, why don't you go next?" Ericka: "Hehe, yeah! I think you will like your present!" Asuka: "Alright then, let's just see what couldn't wait until I woke up on my own..." Asuka: "Huh? yellow cloth? what is this?" Asuka: "No way. It can't be. Asuka: "Oh.. *tearing up* it is. Thank you so much Everybody, Amara, Mako-chan, Xecty, and Natsuki." Asuka: *Sniff* "I, uh, I'm just going to go try this on." Saber: "Are you crying? hehehehehe." Asuka: "No! I just go something in my eye! Baka saber!" Alice: "So does that mean I am next?" Aoko: "Sure. I think you'll like yours too." "A box? Peculiar holiday this is." "Oh, It's my missing charm! I was wondering what happened to this.... So fortunate that Marya was able to locate it for me. A special sort of Witch she is." Aoko: "That's not all Alice, Look up." Alice: "Oh? what is this then?" *Tweet, Tweet* Alice: "Oh, Hello my old friend. How I have missed you so." Robin: "Tweet tweet chirp!" Alice: "That is both perverse and inappropriate. I see you have not changed at all. Still, It is good to have you back. I shall have to thank Marya for all she has done for me." Asuka: "Hey everybody! How does it look? not like it matters. I know I look fabulous of course!" Ryomou: "It really does look great Asuka!" Aoko: "That was fun. It looks like everybody got something nice too." Saber: "Mmmm cake..." Ryomou: "Hey, Beeka? Where did you say you got this tree again? Ericka: "It was just outside with a note made from magazine clippings that spelled out Merry Christmas. I think it might have been spelled wrong though. Why? Ryomou: "Nevermind. it's probably nothing. just nice neighbors or something." Fin! So there it is! my christmas story! My girls thoroughly enjoyed everything they got this year! I wanted to give a special thank you to Mitsuki, Amara, and Galvatim who helped me obtain Asuka's yellow dress. Thank you all so much! 2 AM... 3 AM... 4 AM... *branches Rustle* Chibius: "MERRY CHRISTMAS FOOLS I HAZ RETURNED!!!!" Merry christmas and Happy Holidays to everybody!

battrastard Posted December 20, 2013 After a totally suck-a$$ed day at work, you managed to give me a good chuckle! My Kiddos and I thank you!! (I'd get Chibius a fish sandwich, just because!) "Madness takes it's toll, Please have exact change!" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sorry to hear you had a bad day, but I'm glad my girls could bring you up a bit! Chibius should get a fish sandwich for Christmas. If not for simple effort.

Innocentsake Posted December 20, 2013 As always your Saber's personality & actions make me laugh so much! She just wanted the cake inside the wrapping so bad hehe. She has quite a good nose if she could smell the cake inside the wrapping But it seems like your girls made out like bandits this Christmas! Asuka's gift seemed to touch her the most even if she didn't want anyone to know she feels the feelings Meanwhile the girls need to watch out for Chibius is back in action!

Traveller Posted December 20, 2013 Once more, Silverwing delivers a story that is nice and light, with the humour in the right places (For me anyway). There are 3 things that I like in this story a lot....... 1) The shot of Ericka looking own at the tree is really good. It gives the impression that she is very very high up 2) Saber trys to bluff her way out of reaching her present, by pretending she is doing leg streches, 3) I just love Aoko's jumper. So nice and looks really comfortable. Well done sir, and may we see a new year story soon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
baldylox Posted December 21, 2013 Ha ha! Awesome! I loved it! As usual, your girls are hilarious, fun and adorable! And some bullet points: Hooray for Ryomou pics! I always love seeing Mou-chan, especially in tight shirts. She seems to be fitting in really well with the rest of the girls. Saber was sooooo funny! I know Sabers in general love some sweets but the way yours carries on is just so silly! It's like that cake was the only food in the WORLD or something. And trying to pass off her antics as stretching was great, even tho Aoko wasn't fooled in the least. Those two make perfect Master and Servant. Alice and her wanting to categorize ornaments by color reminds me of my Rei! The first time she helped put ornaments on the tree, she wanted to measure the distance between them so they all lined up equidistant from each other! I think Rei and Alice would get along well. And it's so nice to see Asuka get her yellow dress! She looks wonderful in it! Congrats on finding that for her, I can tell she loves it. Billy I gave up counting the girls I own, they keep multiplying and won't stop. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Silverwing Posted December 21, 2013 Chibius should get a whole fridge of food. Awesome job! Made being up at 4 in the morning feel loads better. Glad I could wedge some laughs in a bout of insomnia. Thank you! As always your Saber's personality & actions make me laugh so much! She just wanted the cake inside the wrapping so bad hehe.

Asuka's gift seemed to touch her the most even if she didn't want anyone to know she feels the feelings Meanwhile the girls need to watch out for Chibius is back in action! I am considering conducting a study on how Sabers detect food. It may be a missing link somewhere. Asuka as always has a big heard but doesn't like to wear it on her sleeve most of the time. haha. Chibius probably dissapeared into the Himalayan mountains to learn kung-fu or something. but it is sort of nice to have her back and causing trouble again! Thanks for the comments!

Yeah, I try to cover up the grainyness of my pictures with some interesting angles to compensate. but I'm still happy with the end result. Heh, Saber will do just about anything to get in and out of trouble. I love her to death. Thanks about Aoko's outfit too! I thought at least one of the girls should have a christmas-y outfit on and I loved the way it looked on her! Thanks a bunch! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Silverwing Posted December 21, 2013 Ha ha! Awesome! I loved it! As usual, your girls are hilarious, fun and adorable! And some bullet points: Hooray for Ryomou pics! I always love seeing Mou-chan, especially in tight shirts. She seems to be fitting in really well with the rest of the girls. She is fitting in wonderfully, I swear I still get butterflies every time I look at her. She's just such a joy to finally have! Saber was sooooo funny! I know Sabers in general love some sweets but the way yours carries on is just so silly! It's like that cake was the only food in the WORLD or something. And trying to pass off her antics as stretching was great, even tho Aoko wasn't fooled in the least. Those two make perfect Master and Servant. I think she was wound up because not only does she love food, she loves it even more when it's giant sized and has her name written on the box. Haha, to her, that was the only food in the world at that time! Alice and her wanting to categorize ornaments by color reminds me of my Rei! The first time she helped put ornaments on the tree, she wanted to measure the distance between them so they all lined up equidistant from each other! I think Rei and Alice would get along well. Something about those straight-faced DD girls I tell you. Meticulous to a fault. haha. I imagine they would get along famously, or is that Infamously? And it's so nice to see Asuka get her yellow dress! She looks wonderful in it! Congrats on finding that for her, I can tell she loves it. Dude, I am so happy to have that dress for her. My one gripe about the Asuka DD is that she only came with a maid outfit. It looked wonderful, don't get me wrong, but she wasn't really known for wearing it. I can't seem to find her school uniform anywhere, so when that ended up in front of me I went through the roof! I'll be taking some much better pictures of it soon! Thank you sir! I'm glad you enjoyed it! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bouncing_Tigger Posted December 21, 2013 What a great story! I have to say that this is my favourite pic & line: Saber: "IT'S MINE! IT EVEN HAS MY NAME ON IT! LET GO OF MY LEG!" Having only very recently added a Saber (yet to be introduced but named "Mystique" -- 'Misty' for short) to our family, I am living in fear of what may happen to my pantry now!! Still, it is Christmas so I guess if my Christmas baking "mysteriously" disappear this year, I'll know where to look first!! Thanks so much for a huge laugh at such a busy time of year!

baldylox Posted December 21, 2013 About the maid set and school uniforms for Asuka.... I really don't recall her ever wearing a maid set in the anime. Was it something she did in the manga? Or was it some random thing Volks decided to do with her and Rei V2's release? I really love those maid sets they came with tho, I've been after either one or both for ages and never seem to see them come up for sale. Which brings me to the school uniform thing. Those also seem to be quite hard to find. I've seen a few pop up on Mandarake over the past couple of years but not often. They also tend to show up on YJA but again, not too often. I was lucky enuff to get mine when I bought Rei at a Mandarake store when I was in Japan. She actually came packaged with it! I guess the previous owner had it for her and let it go with her. The store didn't separate them either, they left it inside the box with Rei and her school swimsuit setup. And now that I have it in my head I need to say it again...... I really, REALLY want Rei's alternate school uniform setup! She was re-released with her "transfer student" uniform ( the one with the sweater ) and it was a very limited run. I've wanted it ever since I got Rei back in 2010 and when it comes up ( which is almost never ) it always sells for a stupid high price, like $200. One of these days I'll be able to get that damned thing! Billy I gave up counting the girls I own, they keep multiplying and won't stop. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Traveller Posted December 21, 2013 Athough I would like a yellow dress for my Asuka, the Trf student out for Rei & Asuka's Stripped red/white bikini/swimsuit, I am the proud owner of Asuka's school uniform (Minus the bag). In fact the school set I have wasn't released with the bag or any shoes just the basic outfit, and got it while in Hong Kong last month. Set me back $980 HK$ (approx £80 GBP). All i need to do is find some shoes that may go with it. I'll shoot you the link to the HK store if you want it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

One of these days I'll be able to get that damned thing! Billy I believe, (I might be mistaken) that they used the maid outfits for some promotional artwork throughout Eva's Heyday. I actually have a pair of figurines, Asuka and Rei both that are wearing those same outfits. I'm not sure if the chicken or the egg came first though. I had a couple chances to buy the Tokyo-3 outfit, All for the fair price of a leg, both arms and a kidney if I was feeling generous, but I didn't have those to spare at the time. I do love that transfer set though, sweatervests have always suited Rei well.
