Riddle 013: Spreading That Christmas Cheer [Action]

[Christmas Time is coming! Today, you'll probably find Edward in one of three locations.

A. At the Christmas Village, dressed in his little "Helper Elf" costume and freezing furiously. He does not look at all happy to be there.

B. Wandering through the town, dressed in a warm, green pea-coat, a jade scarf wrapped around his neck, just admiring the winter scenery.

C. Back at home, meticulously setting something up on the dining room table. Once he's finished, he'll call upstairs.]


Slugger? Susan? I'd like it if you could come to the dining room, please. ...Susan, you're free to call upon your Grandfather, too, if you like.

[yeah, he's not gonna admit it either. at least not openly. there's something incredibly weird about that and, truthfully, he has his doubts about that man in the costume, but speculating isn't going to get them anywhere.]

[nods, mulling over all of this to himself.] Yeah. Sorry for bugging you.

[He shakes his head.]

Not at all.

[He takes a few steps to leave, but before he does, he turns back.]

Hey. Kid.

[he looks up, lightly questioning.] ...?

[He's got a feeling Red's theory might not be too far from the truth. And the last thing he wants to see is this Santa, drone or otherwise, to wreak havoc.]

...be careful.

2/2

[a tiny, determined nod. he turns away, waving with the back of his hand.]

Stay safe, mister.
