So multiple people have been finding riddles in those weird boxes, right?

[ Someone apparently has never seen an advent calendar before in their lives.. That's what happens when you're raised so sheltered, apparently. That's besides the point though - Ange's idly playing with a piece of paper of paper in her hands, presumably the paper the riddle she's talking about was written on. ]

I thought maybe there'd be some sort of clue or secret message, but it seems like they're really just standard riddles. I mean, tell me if you've heard this one before.

"A murderer was condemned to death. He has to choose from one of three rooms: 1) A room full of raging fires, 2) A room full of assassins with loaded guns, 3) A room with lions that hadn’t eaten in years. Which room is safest?"

Isn't that one super old? They could've at least picked a more interesting one.

.. well, whatever it is, we'll probably end up getting through it fine in the end.

[ Even though that 'fine' does tend to involve pain and death.. but, you know. Ange has never made a big fuss about either of those concepts. ]

We made it through every Christmas before, after all.

[eatsyourscience]

That's true.

[Even if sometimes Christmas involved the Jabberwocky. At least that's not going to be a thing anymore.]

I guess we've just got to wait it out and see how it goes.

[Not necessarily his favorite approach, but it's the one that happens most often in Wonderland.]

[entreats]

Yeah. Not like there's any other choice. [ If there's anything she's learned about Wonderland, it's that whatever is going to come at any given time, will come no matter what. ]

Let's keep each other updated in case we find something weird, okay?

[ Souji always seems smart and reasonable enough for her to add that. ]

[eatsyourscience]

Okay. I'll let you know if anything comes up.

[Because these advent calendars are becoming more and more suspect in his mind.]
