Hm, Christmas Eve already? It seems to have snuck up on me this year - although I suppose it's a testament to how entertaining this place is, that it distracted me that much. I suppose last-minute decorating will have to suffice. It may be difficult to find a real tree this late, though. We shall see~

And Crowley, I quite enjoyed our conversation the other day. Feel free to drop by.

My, what an unexpected surprise~

So...you're the weird presence? What are you doing here?

Vacationing~

This city does such fascinating things with time. I hadn't expected to see you in the flesh, as it were.

Well -- but -- Clow-san! You're dead! If anyone's unexpected, it's you!

Not for a few years yet, I think.

As I said, this city does strange things with time sometimes. And I believe I got here in a rather different manner than you and the new cardmistress did.

Well...I came here because the clan sent me. Looking for you, probably. We couldn't recognize it because there are so many different presences here...how'd you get here?

Ha, typical. I'm fairly certain Mother would have sent people after me here if she hadn't predeceased me. I'm fairly certain the bossiness is genetic.

A basic dimensional portal spell. It's tied to one of the library doors in the house in Tomoeda, though it may have faded by your time.

...did you have the four older sisters behind her, too?

Wait -- you mean Hiiragizawa's house? Wait, by my time? Are you from before?

Only two, but yes.

Ah, is that the name one of my reincarnations picked? That particular aspect has been a bit cloudy - doing divinations on yourself gets complicated. His house, then. And yes, your time is just planning for me, right now.

I'm sorry. Two's bad enough. [His voice sounds wise in the ways of older sisters.]

Oh. Yeah. Hiiragizawa Eriol. ...how much of our lives was planned by you? I never got a clear answer.

Heh. They did make things interesting sometimes, I must admit.

Mm. Certain generalities. Sakura-chan and the Guardians more so than your's - the rival was not quite so important in the grand scheme of things, no offense meant.

They gang up on me. [Long-suffering but patient now.] Because I'm the boy. Also, the youngest.

I figured. Was I even supposed to be sent to Tomoeda? According to you, I mean...

Move out~ They didn't bother following me to England, thankfully.

Yes, though that was prediction, not planning. My mother's family attempting to acquire the Cards once they became active again was a near-certainty.

I was supposed to go back to Tomoeda after finding...well, you. So I was going to. I might stay here, though...I want to.

We're...kind of predictable when it comes to anything relating to you.

Well, this is a great deal farther away than Japan~

And I've noticed. Useful, if not very interesting.

...I wasn't going to mention that. They don't even like the idea of Japan.

Surprise them. If they're anything like my family, they're so bound by tradition its not particularly difficult to do.

Well, I don't have a choice. They're not...fond of the idea of Sakura. They don't seem to get that she's your daughter, they just don't like that a non-Li has the Cards. They also don't like that I don't care.

Hm? How does the Cardmistress factor into this?

I'm not surprised. However, there is a reason I don't plan on leaving the Cards to my family's care - they were never able to see them as anything more than tools.

[Syaoran's blush is so deep it practically radiates over the device.] I, uh. I love her and I was going back to Tomoeda to be with her. [He's blushing, but his voice is proud and happy.] But I don't need to, because she's here.

That's how I was raised to think of them. Like stronger ofuda.

And she returns those feelings? Very interesting. Not as things had been planned, but the unexpected adds a bit of spice to life.

And that is why she posses them and you don't, to be honest. The Cards are so very much more than that.

Yeah. We waited for each other while I was in Hong KOng.

I understand that, now...but they're with the right person. She cares about them. Plus, she's more powerful than me, isn't she?

Ah, how very sweet of you~

Yes, by a fair margin. More powerful than me, someday, though that will take some growing into, I believe.

I can tell. I can see it, but I don't think she realizes it.

She's a cute one, isn't she? She'll realize in time - it's hard not to, when you have a gift like that. I'm glad it all more or less worked out, it seems. She gave the Cards and my Guardians the home they deserved - perhaps, more so than I could have.
