[. . . HEY?? HEY!! where'd this come from! and having come from a world where Christmas doesn't exist, Lyney is at a complete loss as for the reason why he's receiving such a kind gift in the first place]

[. . .]

[. . . well. . . perhaps he'll try asking around? it has to be someone he knows, if he received top hats, so it's time to go through his (relatively short, since he's a new arrival) contact list]

[BUZZ BUZZ GOES TSURUNO'S PHONE]

Miss Tsuruno? May I ask you a question? I have quite the mystery on my hands.

[fanstheflames]

Hey, Lyney!
I can try?
I thought you were a magician, not a detective, though...

[hatinacat]

Ahaha! you're quite right. I do prefer to weave mysteries rather than solve them.

But if I don't solve this one, then I won't be able to thank whomever left a gift at my doorstep.

[fanstheflames]

Oh... well, that might be tough. From what I can tell, a lot of people have been dropping off Christmas gifts.

[hatinacat]

Forgive my ignorance, but. . . Christmas?

[fanstheflames]

It's a winter holiday where I'm from!
You give gifts to important people in your life!
And some other traditions but they're not as important.

[hatinacat]

I see!

[that sounds very sweet. . . and he can't think of any Fontainian holidays that have similar premises. people give gifts on birthdays, of course, but it's not the same at all]

It sounds rather charming. Considering our circumstances, it was quite nice of whoever left me these hats to brighten up my day.

Did you see anyone sneaking around my apartment recently?

[fanstheflames]

Nope. No one lingering around, at least not while I was around my own?

[hatinacat]

I see. Most curious.

[the MYSTERY OF THE MAGICALLY APPEARING MAGICIAN'S HATS continues!]

Thank you for your assistance in this matter, Miss Tsuruno. I'll continue my investigation elsewhere.
