"Oh, I brought my own." Aria pulls out a stocking almost as long as she is tall, but quite thin. "See, this way I can draw it out!"

Fadran smiled, then suddenly frowned. "How do you intend to reach the presents at the bottom? Do you have to dive in there, or...?"

[Condensation she/her]

"Usually I have to reach in, which is how I draw it out." Aria burst out laughing. "I'm kidding, I'm kidding! Actually, this one's mine." She hangs the long stocking on the ladder and pulls out a regularly sized and shaped stocking embroidered with musical signs in red and green, with a white background.

Fadran's Alch-MT did its magic, and he pocketed the box. "Alright, you can open them."

Aria opened her eyes. "Are you choosing stockings for everyone else? Because I think yours and Queen's - if she ever gets back from that errand - should match, and probably Herate and Daolan's as well."

"Well... yeah. Matching was kinda the idea. What's this?" Fadran pulled at Aria's stocking, then grinned and held up an exact copy of it.

Aria looked at the identical stockings, confused. "Where'd you get that?"

"Like these?" Fadran held up a couple more stockings, these ones deep, forest green, with snowflakes all over them.

Aria looped the wire once around each nail, it'd keep them on until they wanted to take them off.
