Most wonderful time of the year

[Ren's Genoace is standing like it tries to grab the attention of people who pass by. This is because mobile suits do not usually have handmade transparents held up in their hands - and this one does. Its owner sits underneath the suit, a Santa hat on their head.]

I'm so glad you're here! Would you like to participate in a fun holiday time tradition? I'm happy to explain if you do not know what I'm talking about.

[The Genoace sign says "SECRET SANTA" by the way.]

Mark and I are doing a thing for Christmas. Ah, but it's not a date or anything! It's a group activity, in fact we'd love to have you around. Please consider it.

[This time Ren asks people in person out of their own initiative. But what kind of cheesy holiday activity will this one be? Offkey carol singing? Feeding ducks?

Some time later...]


"Alright, it should be our turn now... err, or soon anyway. Rennie, is your harness alright?"


Not too loose and not too tight. Everything's in order.

[Ren puts on skydiving goggles.]

Let's go!

[The plane's door slams open. It's time to jump.]

All right! See you guys at the bottom!

[And Ashe runs and jumps out with the biggest grin and absolutely no hesitations. Nor an actual parachute as such]

Ha ha ha... you're such a joker, Ashe.

[Ren turns around - and notices Mark's shocked expression.]

Ah. She'll be alright. Really.


"If... you say so..."

[The landscape looks amazing when viewed from high up above, especially since it's snowing.

But look at this Ashe, someone is trying to catch up to you. Ren is still a fair distance away and it's not decreasing, because physics and constant acceleration. But still, the parachute is not deployed yet. Ren tries to wave at you, which is not as easy in freefall.]

[Ashe was falling backwards to see when the two lovebirds jumped - and when they do she opens up her arms and legs to offer a little more air resistance and slow herself down a bit - and give them a chance to shorten distances if they reposition themselves.

She also gives a big arm wave with both arms as she does so]

[Ren can't say anything, but looks grateful. Still, this isn't the kind of jump where groups do aerial acrobatics, so they don't come any closer.

Instead, people who aren't Ashe are not actually resistant to huge falls, so both Ren and Mark eventually open up their parachutes.]
