001 // a very bear-y christmas

[cardcaptured]

Xiaolang Li shared a photo. 12/15 near Birch Hills

A general question: has anyone ever received something from Retrospec that was intended for somebody else? Or something you were certain WASN'T yours, even if the ticket said otherwise? Because I do have memories of a bear, but it definitely was not THIS one.

((pretend this bear is 100% handmade and doesn't have the Stieff logo or the name on it's foot, okay--))

Guess so!

[ Don't worry, she knows. She loves you Xiaolong, she knows. Don't worry about it.

It's definitely fine. ]

You shouldn't assume what actual royalty acts like! But are you saying she's not cute? That's sad. I can't believe you just implied that she's ugly. Shame on you.

But if you're not good, that means you just have to get better, right?

That's not what I meant! She's not ugly at all, I just-- wouldn't call her that kind of cute. Unless we mean cute as a... teddy bear or something. [DIDN'T YOU JUST SAY THIS A MONTH AGO XIAOLANG]

It's not ME who has to get better, though, it's-- the one in my memories. And I don't remember enough to tell if I manage to do that or not.

What did you think I meant by "cute" to begin with? But you think she's as cute as a teddy bear? I think that's a good compliment to tell her.

[ Look at how kind Mio is. ]

Honestly, I think you still have some room for improvement yourself, Xiaolang. And I'm not saying this to be rude, you know. Everyone has room for improvement.

But honestly you shouldn't worry too much. You don't know everything, right? Maybe the you from your memories will learn for his mistakes and you'll remember that at some point. But even if he doesn't, at least you know now. I don't think anybody would judge you based on failures you didn't remember until now.
