A note is slipped beneath Nier's door, and there is a small bundle of fresh-baked cookies hanging on the doorknob.
The note reads:
"Ho ho ho! You will be Santa for... Kor Meteor!
Here is what I deduced from their wishlist-
Likes & Preferences: Kor's a simple guy. He likes to fish, he likes to stargaze, he likes to adventure and dream of the big world out there. He's also an overemotional romantic sap so he'd be touched by anything that's heartfelt or packed with feelings. Neat rocks are cool too.
Enjoy, good fortune, and happy holidays!
-Santa's Little Helper"

[ On Christmas Day, Nier will find a small package at his doorstep. Inside, he will find a scarf and gloves decorated with a cute, Christmas-themed tapir, along with... something... and a card with the following text in it:
Nier,
Merry Christmas!
I'm not sure if you celebrate it in your world, but where I come from, this time of the year is the time for celebration with friends and family, full of joy and hopes for the future. I'm really grateful I got to meet you here, so I hope you accept this little token of appreciation! I know it's not much, but please remember that you can count on me whenever you need anything!
Sincerely, Noel Vermillion
Now that's all good and well, he might say, but what's the deal with the other thing? That would be Noel's custom, handmade rendition of a yule log cake. The problem? Noel can't cook. No, it's more than that ─ her cooking is absolutely atrocious, and the results are not unlike the worst of poisons. Most people brave enough to try it are left sick for weeks and traumatized for life. The wise thing would be to get rid of this abomination as soon as possible and never speak of its horrors again. But hey, at least the other gift is not deadly, so she got one half of it right! ]
[ This is an incredibly heart warming gift! Nier remembers how his sister would cook for him back home. She wasn't a great chef or anything. He just couldn't bring himself to say no to her effort and how much love she put into her food. Nier can see that with Noel too. She's real just trying her best and it's the thought that counts. He isn't the type to complain about smaller things and he looks genuinely thankful.]
Dear Noel
Thank you for taking time to prepare this gift. It was great.
I never experienced anything like Christmas before. I still understand the importance of spending time with family and friends. So having a holiday dedicated for that must be a good thing! I'm glad we met too and I hope you've been doing well.
If there's anything you need help with you can call for me. Friends should be there for each other!! Let's do our best and work hard.
