perfect imperfections:

Once more, winter had crept upon the city of Migdar with its chilly winds and frosty snow. However, the festive spirit was in full swing, and the city was bustling with life and joy. The streets were adorned with colorful lights and decorations, while the air was filled with the sweet aroma of hot cocoa and freshly baked cookies.

Children of all ages ran around in the snow, building snowmen, having snowball fights, and delighting in the magic of the season. Adults worked tirelessly, hoping to earn a day or two off to spend with their loved ones, while couples brimming with affection for each other eagerly awaited the perfect moment to steal a kiss or a tender gesture. Everywhere one would look, there was an atmosphere of warmth, love, and happiness, making the city of Migdar truly magical during this special time of year.

Amidst the towering facade of Shinra HQ, where every inch of the building is polished to a gleaming shine, lies a cozy haven known as the Turks Lounge. The sound of merriment fills my ears, and my eyes are immediately drawn to the festive decorations that adorn every nook and cranny of the space. The walls are bedecked with ribbons of crimson and emerald, and the air is filled with the sweet scent of evergreens.

The holiday season was on the horizon, and with it came a wave of festive decorations that transform homes and businesses alike into a winter wonderland. Among these decorations are the beloved holiday moogles - little white creatures that resemble flying cats - of all shapes and sizes. The adorable creatures can be found perched on shelves and windowsills, their cheery expressions bringing smiles to the faces of all who enter.

And then there are the Life Day trees - tall, majestic, and spruced up in an array of twinkling bulbs that cast a warm and inviting glow over the entire room. The trees are adorned with ornaments of all kinds, from classic glass baubles to handmade crafts. The scent of pine fills the air, and the sound of carols can be heard in the background, lending to the overall festive atmosphere.

The scene was truly a sight to behold, a testament to the joy and camaraderie that the Turks share in this special time of year. The holiday season brings people together, and the decorations serve as a visual reminder of the love and connection we share during this magical time.

The group of Turks were decorating and having a conversation.

Raine, a breathtaking young woman with sparkling emerald eyes and a fit physique, exclaimed with excitement, "This is perfect for the season! The weather, the atmosphere, everything is just flawless! We couldn't have asked for anything better!"

Elena, a young woman with long blonde hair cascading down her back and deep brown eyes that sparkled with amusement, let out a joyous giggle and nodded her head in agreement. "I couldn't agree more," she said. "It's nice to have a break from the constant chaos and turmoil that we're all too used to dealing with throughout the rest of the year."

Reno, a fiery redhead with blue eyes, sat atop Rude, a bald man wearing a suit and sunglasses with hazel eyes.

Reno declared, "I wish every day could be Life Day so I could give you guys gifts all the time!" He winked at Raine as he said this.

Raine and Elena laughed, and Rude joined in with a snicker.

Raine shook her head in amusement and replied, "Reno, you don't have to wait for Life Day to give us gifts. You can give them to us anytime you want."

“I know that, I just find it super special to do it around the holidays! It is the season of giving after all!” He waved around a hot glue gun, risking burning poor Rude’s bald head while conveying his point.

Elena chuckled heartily in response to something that was said, "Well, he does have a point." Suddenly, she noticed something alarming and quickly pointed in Rude's direction, "But, uh, Reno you may wanna watch out," she cautioned. Elena's eyes were locked on a glob of hot glue that was perilously close to touching Rude's bare head.

Reno looked down at where she was pointing and did the total opposite of what he should've done. Not only did Rude immediately get singed but Reno grabbed it and burned himself as well, causing Rude to send them both to the ground.

Rude winced and brought his hand to his head, letting out a pained cry. "Ow, Reno!" he exclaimed, his brows furrowed in discomfort.

Reno winced in sympathy, his gaze flickering over to the angry red burn on Rude's head. "I'm so sorry, buddy," he murmured, his voice laced with concern.

As soon as they heard the commotion, Raine and Elena swiftly abandoned their ongoing decorating and rushed to assist the boys without any delay.

As soon as the commotion died down, Raine was quick to act. She knelt between Reno and Rude, checking on their injuries. "Are you guys okay?!" she asked with concern, her voice filled with worry.

Reno seemed to have hurt his hand, but Rude's wound was more severe. Raine immediately directed Elena to tend to Reno while she took charge of Rude's care. She assessed his head injury carefully, making sure to apply the proper amount of healing magic.

Reno complained, grimacing in pain, "It stings a bit, but we're fine."

Elena laughed and playfully hit him on the arm, "Oh no, Reno, you're not getting away with this one. You just got burned! Let me take care of that."

She pulled out her trusty first aid kit and began to tend to his burn, making sure to clean and treat it properly to prevent infection. Despite Reno's protests, Elena was determined to make sure he was okay and wouldn't suffer any long-term damage from the burn.

Rude's expression contorted into a frown as he uttered, "It hurts far more than I had anticipated."

Raine gazed at Rude's head wound with a look of concern, “Well, you were burned by a lot of hot glue but nothing I can't heal.”

She knew it was a serious burn caused by the hot glue, but she was determined to heal it. With a wave of her hand, she summoned her healing magic and began to mend the wound. After a few moments, she applied some burn ointment to the affected area and gently wrapped a bandage around it.

Raine's smile was a sign of relief as she saw the wound slowly start to heal. “There we go, all better," she said softly. “Just keep the bandage on for a couple of days and you should be okay again soon. Plus with the holidays about, you'll have plenty of time to relax.”

Rude flashed a smile at Raine, as he reached for another pair of sunglasses from his suit jacket. The array of identical shades gleamed in the light, neatly arranged and waiting to be chosen.

With a practiced hand, he swapped out the cracked lenses of the old pair that had failed him during his last tumble. "Thank you, Raine. Appreciate it," he murmured, his voice low and smooth.

After thanking Rude for his assistance, she turned towards Elena, who finished treating the burns on Reno's skin. With a friendly smile, "How are you feeling?" Raine's eyes were filled with compassion as she looked at Reno.

Reno's complexion contorted into a slight grimace as he shrugged his shoulders, but he managed to flash a reassuring smile. "It stings a little," he admitted, "But I've dealt with worse before. I can handle it.”

“Alright, if you're sure…," Raine spoke, “Elena and I can take care of these remaining tasks, and once we're done, we can all hang out together. It'll be a fun time with all four of us.”

Elena's face lit up with excitement as she eagerly nodded in agreement, "That's a fantastic idea, Raine! We shouldn't waste any more time, let's finish up right away!"

The boys stood nearby, giving nods of approval before moving to sit next to each other and chat for a bit. Meanwhile, the girls were busy finishing up the decorating task they had taken on. Raine, in particular, was meticulously putting the finishing touches on the last Life Day tree, which was adorned with white tinsel and green bows along the pine branches. With care, she placed a star on top of the tree to complete the festive look.

As Elena decorated the room, she carefully hung different ornaments and trinkets on the walls and ceiling. Among them was a small sprig of mistletoe, which she strategically placed under the doorway. While doing so, she couldn't help but think that this would be the ideal chance for Raine and Reno to share a romantic moment.

Elena had just finished adorning the room with various decorative items. She hopped down from the ladder and faced her three friends with a bright smile on her face. "I have an excellent suggestion," she exclaimed. "What if we organize a Secret Santa among ourselves?"

She proceeded to pick up a plastic hat from a nearby container and gestured towards some white paper sheets placed on the table.

Elena received nods from Raine, Reno, and Rude, who all smiled at each other before acknowledging her.

Raine's eyes lit up with excitement as she exclaimed, "Sounds like a lot of fun!" She paused for a moment, lost in thought, before tapping her finger against her chin. "I can't help but wonder just how much we all truly know each other on a personal level..."

Rude made a teasing comment, "Well, we won't know until we try," and then gestured towards Elena, who had already taken out four pieces of paper and carefully written down everyone's names on them.

Elena took great care in shuffling the folded paper slips thoroughly in the black plastic hat before she delicately reached in and plucked out a single slip of paper. With a sense of anticipation, she moved on to Raine who eagerly took her turn and drew another slip of paper from the hat. Rude and Reno followed suit, each selecting their slips of paper from the hat, their expressions betraying their curiosity and excitement.

"Okay, make sure you don't peek at your paper slips until after work hours when everyone has gone home. We have the whole day today and tomorrow to prepare our gifts before the winter party tomorrow evening," Elena clarified to the group.

The other three nodded their heads.

After finishing up their work, Elena, Raine, Reno, and Rude carefully gathered all the leftover decorations from the table, making sure to leave the place spotless. Once they were done, they calmly and methodically packed their belongings and headed home, satisfied with a productive day's work.

Each member opened the paper slips on the way home, revealing who they'd give a gift to. Raine got Rude, Rude got Elena, Elena got Reno, and Reno got Raine.

The name forced a lump to Reno's throat. He got Raine. He had already spent three years with his Raine. And what was the issue? As for what to give her for the Secret Santa, he had no clue. For a girl who is so flawless and so considerate of everyone around her, what do you get? He was merely a young boy hopelessly in love with her, and she was everything.

On his way home, Reno fidgeted with his rod and repeatedly read the name on the paper slip. He considered bouquets, candies, and various jewelry or trinkets that Raine could find appealing, but that was the issue. Reno's mind was filled with only one person: Raine.

Raine's beauty, sensitivity, and sense of style were unmatched. The beams of the sun in the sky kissed her soul so tenderly that Reno caught a glimpse of the lifestream itself if her lips were to touch his.

Regaining consciousness after his trance, Reno dialed Elena, the only person who knew Raine quite as well as he did. Heading into Sector 3 for the night, he got on the underground train. He waited for Elena to pick up whilst seated.

He became increasingly nervous as his phone rang, hoping she would answer it quickly. "Please, please, please, hurry up!"

At last, Elena responded, "Hey Reno! What's wrong? Did you burn yourself again?”

"No, no, I'm alright. He grumbled, "I was calling because I don't know what to get for my Secret Santa." Reno answered.

"I figured you'd say that," Elena said, nodding. “Look, I'm not supposed to—”

"Elena, just do this for me, please! If it was simple to solve, I wouldn't be calling! Reno essentially begged through the phone.

"All right, let me guess," groaned Elena. “You seem nervous, so I assume you got Raine?”

"How did you know?" Reno pretended to cough in an attempt to wave it off.

"Just get her something thoughtful," Elena said, laughing and shaking her head. “Well, there must be something she enjoys. Perhaps a necklace made of flowers or something sentimental. Anything that I know Raine appreciates would likely be something that was made exclusively for her.”

Reno mentally jotted down what Elena said, and he found her advice to be quite beneficial, "You know, you're right! I'm sure I can come up with something to suggest to Raine using this idea. Thanks a bunch, Elena.”

"Not a problem! I expect to see you tomorrow, good luck!” Elena smiled.

"Bye! See you tomorrow!” After hanging up, Reno left the train and headed up the steps towards the walkway home in Sector 3, thinking of what he should prepare Raine for his Secret Santa present.

His judgment was obscured by the frigid air that entered his nostrils as he strolled through Sector 3's bleak streets.

Then it hit him, "Oh! I'll make her a bracelet! I have some thread and beads at home that I think she'll like.”

Reno's mind kept running through plans of creating the perfect bracelet for Raine, his Secret Santa recipient, as he drew nearer to his little home in Sector 3. As he entered his house, his red hair glinted in the city lights.

"Okay, Raine, get ready for some handmade charm," Reno murmured, laughing to himself. He imagined the bracelet—a fusion of vivid beads and subdued jewels—that would go well with Raine's fashion sense. After opening his door and entering, he shut it behind him and went straight to his closet's craft bin.

Reno dug through his belongings and found a variety of gemstones and beads he had accumulated over the years. With a look of uneasiness mixed with determination, he sat on the edge of his cluttered desk. He pondered as he looked over the selection, "Let's see... I'll start with these blue beads,"

For Reno, the procedure was a journey of trial and error. Occasionally murmuring to himself, he wound the rope through beads, asking, "Is this too much? Nope, Raine like a little audacity." His fingers exhibited an unexpected dexterity as they wove a pattern that gained shape over time. Reno was a little frustrated at first since he had to start over and reassemble the beads due to carelessness.

Observing the time, Reno made an effort to work quickly without jeopardizing the level of quality.

Reno was unable to resist thinking back on Raine's peculiarities and advantages among the Turks while he labored. He intertwined the beads carefully, saying, "She's got that tough exterior, but there's a softer side too." Mirroring the layers of complexity he observed in Raine, the stones gave a touch of grace.

Reno's commitment to the endeavor persisted for hours on end. He thought of Raine's face, her emerald-green eyes glimmering with gratitude. "This better be worth it," he smiled to himself.

Reno finished the bracelet and held it up to look at it with a mixture of pride and amusement. He said, "Well, not bad for a Turk, huh?" as he considered the impending gift exchange. A sincere smile spread across Reno's face as he imagined Raine opening the bracelet and realized that sometimes the most unexpected actions might mean the most.

It was a serene night as Reno wound the bracelet, the colorful stones and beads tucked between the paper's creases. He smiled to himself, picturing Raine's shocked face as she opened the homemade present. He muttered to himself, "I hope she appreciates the effort," and set the wrapped bracelet down on his bedside table.

Reno yawned after a basic dinner of takeout noodles, understanding that even Turks needed beauty sleep. After brushing his teeth, he glanced in the bathroom mirror at himself. He joked, "Gotta look sharp for the gift exchange," and subsequently fell asleep, not even remembering when his head hit the pillow.

Reno woke up to his alarm going off early the next morning. His eyes were drawn to the wrapped bracelet as he groaned and staggered out of bed. His face twisted into a smile as he thought about the coming day.

Drinking a strong cup of coffee, Reno thought about the Secret Santa exchange that was coming soon. He retrieved his suit and ironed it carefully, trying not to wrinkle it. He laughed to himself, "Turks gotta look their best." He decided to add a pop of brilliant red to his hair color to keep his signature look after seeing that his crimson locks were starting to fade a little.

Using his kit and dye brush, Reno spent the next hour dying his hair. He wrapped foil around the colored sections to let them set.

Pulling out his phone, Reno called Rude while waiting for the dye to set. "Hey, Rude! "What did ya get Elena?" With his TV on in the background, he asked.

Over the phone, Rude's deep voice could be heard, "I got her a set of old photography books. You know, she likes that artistic stuff."

Nice choice, dude. classy." Reno smiled and kept dabbing at the color. "You know what I got for Raine?"

"Some jewelry?" Rude asked Reno, his eyebrows furrowing as he considered.

"Close...a bracelet handcrafted by hand! Made it myself," Reno praised his achievement.

On the other end, Rude's deep voice laughed, "Handmade? You? That caught me off guard. Still, I'm sure she'll enjoy it."

Reno smirked, "Yeah, well, don't underestimate the Turk touch."

Their conversation flowed seamlessly, shifting from gift exchanges to work schedules. "We got that mission tomorrow, right?" Reno asked, adjusting the phone between his shoulder and ear.

"Yep. Gonna be a busy week," Rude replied.

"Tell me about it," Reno quipped, finishing up his hair. "Alright, catch you later, partner."

As the call ended, Reno admired his refreshed hair in the mirror, a sly grin playing on his lips.

Ready for the day, he slipped on his outfit. Reno departed from his house, the wrapped bracelet safely tucked into his pocket, looking forward to the camaraderie of the upcoming Secret Santa exchange.

Reno strolled briskly from his residence in Sector 3, the city sounds blending with the rhythmic tapping of his boots against the pavement. The morning sun cast a warm glow on Midgar as he approached the underground railway. Boarding the train, he navigated the familiar route to the Shinra Building.

Reno flashed his Turk ID as he checked in at the security gates with ease. He was called upon by the stoic Turk leader Tseng to help with a variety of duties. Reno spent the afternoon handling paperwork, planning future operations, and communicating with other departments to make sure the Turks ran smoothly.

Tseng gave a rare nod in acknowledgment of Reno's effectiveness. "Well done, Reno. The Turks benefit from your talent for handling these details."

Reno grinned, "Just doing my thing, boss. You know how I roll."

Following the completion of his tasks, Reno went around giving Tseng, Rufus, and even President Shinra housewarming presents. Though they were small, such behaviors provided the work environment a sense of companionship. The Turk occupied a special place in Shinra due to his ability to strike a balance between his irreverent attitude and his professional responsibilities.

Reno arrived at the main Turks area, where he was welcomed by the typical hum of activity, after finishing his responsibilities. Rude and Elena were already at their stations when he arrived. “Morning, pals," he said with a nonchalant wave.

Elena gave Reno a fleeting smile, but Rude nodded, lost in a report. “Reno, you seem pleased with yourself! All set for tonight?"

Reno, with a playful twinkle in his eye, leaned on a desk. "I think so! I've got the bracelet right here! I'm hoping Raine will love it.”

The companionship in the air increased as they joked around with each other. The three of them waited for Raine to show up for the Secret Santa trade. Shinra's business tone was punctuated by the Turks' normal banter and friendship, which created the perfect environment for a memorable and amusing discussion.

Raine entered the Turks headquarters with a self-assured posture, seeing the faces of Reno, Rude, and Elena that she knew well, "Hey, everyone!"

"Raine, you made it!" Reno said with a teasing grin. “Are you ready for some holiday fun, Turk-style?”

She chuckled, "Absolutely. What's the plan?"

"First, we got some business to take care of," Reno said, gesturing to their workstations. “Though the fun is just around the corner.”

There was a distinct hum of business and cooperation in the Turks Headquarters as they settled into their daily tasks. With his attention on an article, Rude nodded modestly to Raine's entrance.

Elena beamed, "By the way, nice dress! I adore the shade on you!"

Raine, intrigued, leaned against a desk. "Thanks Elena! What did you end up getting Reno for secret Santa?"

Elena put her pointer finger up to her mouth, “You’ll have to wait and see..”

The room filled with bits and pieces of animated conversation as the job went on. Raine and Elena laughed at a clever remark, and Rude's sardonic humor made the job at hand seem a little less serious. With his characteristic irreverence, Reno maintained the banter and made the ordinary seem less so.

The anticipation for the forthcoming present exchange lingered in the air among the tasks. Raine couldn't help but admire the Turks' unique friendship - a blend of professionalism and genuine connection. Though not overt, the festive atmosphere pervaded their interactions, making the Turks HQ feel more like a close-knit family than a job.

Reno signaled to the group that tasks were almost finished by clapping his hands. "Now, Turks, let's change course. Awaiting you is your secret Santa!"

The Turks exchanged a glance, preparing for the Christmas exchange that promised surprises, laughing, and possibly a few unexpected moments in the midst of their hectic working life.

The Turks' Lounge Room was decked out in subtle holiday decorations, ready to accommodate the Secret Santa exchange.

Rude offered Elena a beautifully wrapped surprise with a gentle manner.

Elena's eyes glowed as she unwrapped the present. "These are incredible, Rude!" You are aware of my passion for photography. "Thank you," she shouted, grateful for the kind gift.

Elena turned to Reno, a cheeky smile on her face, and handed him a wrapped parcel. "Your turn, Reno," she jokingly said.

Reno grinned as he eagerly unwrapped the present. He was ecstatic to discover a sleek new electric rod and a set of fashionable goggles. "You nailed it, Elena!" These will be useful on our next mission. "Thank you!" he said, enjoying the equipment.

The Turks took a little pause after exchanging gifts. The wrapping paper crinkled underfoot as they tossed it aside, and the room was filled with laughing and conversation. Elena advised a quick refreshment run with a joyful twinkle in her eye.

"Who's up for snacks and drinks?" She called out, already on her way to the break room.

Reno, getting into the spirit, said, "Count me in." I need to refuel before the next round of gifts."

Elena produced a batch of hot cocoa for the gathering, and the aroma floated across the air.

Reno, who was sitting close, couldn't help but remark, "Elena, you're a magician with those goggles and now hot cocoa. What's next, a holiday cookbook for Turks?"

Elena chuckled as she handed him a steamy mug. "Perhaps next year, Reno. For now, just enjoy the hot chocolate and munchies."

Elena passed out the rest of the mugs and snacked on a cracker before clearing her throat, “Raine, Reno, you guys are up next!”

"Alright! "Wait a second!" Raine retrieved a massive wrapped present from a neighboring broom closet, causing the others to laugh.

Raine approached Rude and handed him a neatly packed suitcase. "For the Turk who always keeps it sharp," she chuckled.

Rude lifted an inquisitive brow as he opened the suitcase. An assortment of identical sunglasses and elegant suits were carefully organized inside. "Raine, this is... impressive," he exclaimed, amazed. "You have style, girl. Thanks."

As Raine and Rude exchanged grateful glances, all eyes were drawn to Reno, who excitedly reached for the next gift. He handed Raine a little, beautifully wrapped present with a chuckle. "It's your turn, Raine. I hope you enjoy it."

Raine's interest piqued as she unwrapped the gift, displaying the handcrafted bracelet Reno had fashioned for her. Her eyes expanded, and a genuine smile appeared on her face. "Reno, this is stunning. "Did you make it yourself?" she said, her voice full of awe.

Reno nodded his head, faking indifference. "Yeah, I thought I'd try my hand at arts and crafts. You know, for the holidays."

Raine's thankfulness overflowed, and she smiled up at Reno. "I adore it, Reno. "It's perfect," she said, planting a delicate kiss on his cheek.

Rude nodded in approval as the other Turks teased him. "Looks like the Secret Santa game is bringing out the soft side in our favorite Turk."

With the gift exchange concluded, the Turks decided to wind down the evening with hot chocolate and a festive movie. They gathered in the Lounge Room, where a makeshift mistletoe hung from the ceiling. Before catching up to the others…

“Hey, I really do love the bracelet! It's so beautiful!” Raine cheered.

Reno smirked, “Almost as beautiful as you.” He winked at her, causing her to blush. “Hey look, mistletoe, my dear.”

Raine looked up, blushing more at the sight of the festive plant and her eyes landed on the handsome redhead in front of her. Reno stood beneath it, inching closer to her. He let his hand caress her right temple, suddenly grabbing her by the waist and spun, dipping Raine down, never letting go over her.

Raine gasped, regaining her senses to note how close their lips were to one another.

“I love you, Raine.” Reno purred, his eyes dialated and full of love.

Raine smiled smittenly, looking up at his eyes and face, “I love you, Reno.”

Within a moment, their lips collided against each other’s, savoring the moment for what seemed like eternity. Their love was eternal since the moment they met years ago, never fading and only getting stronger with distance and time. Pulling away, the lovers shared a warm embrace before heading over to rejoin Rude and Elena.

Amidst laughter and shared glances, the Turks settled in for a cozy movie night. Elena, with her usual enthusiasm, called out, "Hot chocolate, anyone?" They indulged in steaming mugs and shared banter while watching a made-up Christmas movie that only the Turks could appreciate.

The room echoed with the warmth of friendship, the joy of thoughtful gifts, and the promise of holiday cheer among the tight-knit group.

The End.

Loyal - Tseng. Elf [Ch54], Gunner/Time Mage [Ch54/55], job unknown [Ch9].

LOVELESS guild - Genesis is the guild master, and it's interested in literature, theatrics, and so on. Probably winds up as the home of the "intelligentsia" of Terra Online [Ch17].

The Demon of the Wastes [Ch18] - Vincent Valentine, who has (at my best guess) been wired into a prototype VRDC by Hojo as a bit of sadistic toying, or possibly some early experimentation in mental erasure... hoping if programmers tried to erase the "glitch", it would wind up wiping Vincent's mind. Understands the Overseer’s (Turks) sign language.
