The cold winter that had brought South Triston's transport system almost to its knees seemed it could stop almost anything in its tracks. As the snow fell, children played in the snow, countless numbers of hooded and coated figures lined the streets, and many struggled in their efforts to continue with their engagements. But amid the chaotic scenes all around Smokestacks, the falling snow could not contravene one thing - the powers of friendship between Reoku and Wesley. When the two bumped into each other as Wesley made his way downtown, he'd been dying to know what he'd got up to since their last meeting, though he'd already formed an idea. But out of the blue came a gesture he'd never expected; he was overjoyed when Reoku presented him with a large present from behind his back. With a delighted smile he gracefully accepted it, hardly able to believe his eyes or his senses as the green box rubbed against his paws.

This beautiful gift was created by my dear friend ReokuKurosai, as an early Christmas present. Here we see my catboy character Wesley standing in the snow, though without having added an extra layer of clothing, accepting a present from his catboy character Reoku. From the bottom of my heart, thank you so much, my dear friend. I could not have asked for a better present - your friendship only adds to this, brother, and may this Christmas and the following year be as great as the friend you are. huggles
