Might be in her teens now, but still a kid at heart.

Definitely.
*you arrive at the base early in the morning, so the lights are still out. You can see the silhouette of a Christmas tree in the corner with gifts under it. However you notice something rummaging around looking for something before picking up a present*
?????: One little peek wouldn't hurt...

Huh? Who's there? *looks for a light switch and clicks it on*

Milla: EEP!! THIS ISN'T WHAT YOU THINK!!

M...Milla? What're you- *notices* You're a peeping Tom?

Milla: N-no! I just.... I mean... Ummm.... *sigh* Okay, fine. You caught me. It's just.... so hard to wait.

Heh...c'mere, girl. I got a bit of a yarn to spin. *sits on the couch and pats the space next to me*

Milla: *comes and sits where you patted*

You know...my little brother does that before they're even wrapped.

Yep. Layne hates surprises. Every time a package comes in around Christmas time, he checks to see if it's a present. He even checks mom's online history to see what she's ordered before it gets here!

Milla: Wow... Talk about overkill.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Oh yeah. He doesn't like surprises when it comes to gifts. Not one bit. Maybe it came from a gift he didn't like one year? I dunno.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Milla: Okay... So what's this gotta do with me?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Well, you just kinda reminded me of him. But you said it's overkill. If you start, you might end up like that. Like say you wanted to go to the movies, but before you left, you looked up a summary of the plot online! Every time!

Milla: Oh... I see. *realizes she's still holding the present *. You know... Maybe I should wait until I'm allowed to open this...
?????: That'd be for the best.
Milla: Huh? *realizes the other three were listening in*

*jumps a little, not expecting the others to be there* Heh...hey, everyone.

Lilac: Milla... Were you trying to peek?
Milla: Yeah... But Cam stopped me.
Carol: Well I'm glad you're excited, but we only got a little over a week before you can open it.
Neera: Yes. Remember, patience is a virtue. Think you can wait until then?
Milla: Yeah... It's better than being like Cam's brother.
Lilac: *chuckles* Wait. What?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Well, he's not THAT bad. *Chuckle*
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Milla: Yeah, I guess. *puts the present back under the tree * Anyway, what are we doing today?
Lilac: Well, what do you wanna do? We don't have anything planned.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Well, did I wake you girls up or something?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Carol: Yeah.. We just woke up.
Neera: Well I think the first order of business should be breakfast.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah. Totally. What do you usually have? I ate before dropping by.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Milla: Well, how about scrambled eggs and bacon?
Carol: Now you're talking!
Milla: Ooh! You think we can have some hot chocolate?
Lilac: Sure. As much as you want.
Milla: Yes!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
*chuckles* I'll join in on the hot chocolate part, if you don't mind.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Neera: *looks outside * Good day for it, cause it's snowing pretty bad out there. No one's leaving until it let's up.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Oh yeah. Good point. Glad I came here the way I did.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Milla: Ooh! I'm gonna get back in my pjs! *runs off*
Neera: Heh... Excitable. Where did you two find such a cheery kid?

After that raid on those ruins when Spade first swiped the kingdom stone, they collapsed, and Carol got trapped. Milla rescued her with those force fields, and Carol only came out with that scratch on her ear.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Neera: I see.
Carol: Hey, Lilac. Maybe we should get back in our pajamas too. They're much warmer than our usual wear, and I'd rather not wear a coat all day.
Lilac: Okay. Excuse us for a minute, Cam.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
*they leave, and a few minutes later they return wearing warm pjs and wool socks. Except Milla, who's pjs are footies*
Lilac: Yeah.. That's much warmer. Anyway, let's start with the cocoa.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
*chuckles* You look nice! *follows*
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
*upon reaching the kitchen*
Carol: So you want normal chocolate? Or do want a special flavor?
Milla: I don't know about the rest of you, but I'd like peppermint!
Lilac: Want marshmallows in it?
Milla: Of course!
Lilac: What about you Cam? Just a plain milk chocolate for you? Or would you like something more interesting?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Regular. Marshmallows on the side so I can have them with or without the chocolate. Please.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Lilac: Gotcha! I'll get yours ready since it'll be quicker than the special flavor.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
*smiles* So, how's life been treating you all? Ready for the holidays?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Lilac: Yep! All the gifts are under the tree, decorations are up. Basically now all we gotta do is wait for the big day.
Carol: You know, I'm always surprised that you like winter so much. Aren't dragons cold blooded?
Lilac: Well, I'm only half water dragon, remember?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Lilac: Yeah... I don't know what the other half is though. *hands you your cocoa* Hope you like big marshmallows.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
*everyone else's is finished and passed out*
Carol: *sips* Ah... that's one way to warm up on a cold day.
Neera: Can't argue with that.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah. That was nice...*smiles* So, what's next? Get a blanket and we all huddle together to keep warm?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Lilac: Heh... not quite. We still haven't had breakfast.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Oh...right. Forgot. *Embarrassed laugh*
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Neera: I'll handle it, Lilac. You're not the best cook.
Carol: Yeah.. *chuckles* Remember that time you tried making filet mignon with sauce bernesse?
Lilac: *facepalms* No...
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Was it really that bad? The hot chocolate was fine for me...*eats one of the marshmallows I had on the side*
