Error had joined our family a few months ago. Being the youngest, he was certainly played with the most, and he enjoyed the attention. Cross had made great strides to teach him how to speak, and he was now capable of expressing full thoughts; we were all very proud of him. In all honesty, I had expected the conversation we would have when Christmas was first spoken of; Dust hadn't known everything about Christmas last year, and with Error's limited contact with the world at present, I was expecting a repeat. I hadn't expected Cross's ignorance, however.
"Crossy, what's Christmas?" Error asked, one day.
"..I don't know; I've never heard of it." Cross shrugged.
"Again?" Killer tilted his skull, remembering last year.
"Yes, Killer, again." I nodded.
"What do you mean 'again'?" Cross didn't understand.
"I didn't know what Christmas was last year, either." Dust revealed. "The others explained it."
"Oh..so..what is it?"
"It's a holiday where everyone's happy and someone called 'Sansta' brings all the good children in the multiverse gifts."
"Wouldn't that be bad for Dad's work?"
"I am slightly busier around Christmas." I admitted. "But it's nothing to worry about."
"What's a gift?" Error wondered.
"A gift is a present." Cross explained.
"What's a present?"
"..A present is something that someone gives to someone else for some reason; sometimes, it's just to be nice!"
"Can I have a gift?"
"Yes, Error, you can have a gift, but you have to wait until Christmas." I responded.
"Why?"
"Because Sansta doesn't come until Christmas Eve!" Killer giggled.
"Why?"
"Because he can only do it once a year, since there are so many children." Horror stated.
"How many?"
"All of them!" Killer exclaimed.
"Wow.."
"What happens on Christmas Day?" Cross inquired.
"On that day, we run out into the living room and find all the cool gifts Sansta brought! That's only the end, though."
"What happens before it?"
"Before Christmas, we do all sorts of fun stuff! We drink hot chocolate, watch Christmas movies, and make eachother gifts!"
"Doesn't Sansta bring the gifts?"
"Yeah, but it's fun to give some of your own!"
"I wanna make gifts!" Error proclaimed, standing up.
"Now?" Cross wondered.
"Now!"
As Cross was dragged off by an excited Error, the rest of us opted to simply stay seated in the living room until further notice, which, after three hours, came.
