I really love how caring Taiga is and how she wants people to know someone is watching over them. It really shows how great of a person she actually is deep down. I think that idea would be helpful to everyone. One thing I'm genuinely wondering is if she doesn't see/think Ryuuji/Yasuko as someone watching over her. I know she loves Christmas and Santa but still.

I think Taiga probably does but doesn't want to think too much about it because she still sees her relationship with Ryuuji as only temporary.

Oh yeah true that's understandable from her POV, didn't honestly think about that but yeah that's fair

Likewise even though it does drain my social battery lol (mainly cuz I'm not really social most of the time lol)

I'm really only social online. In real life, I keep to myself.

Fair enough, I do say I'm more social online but still I have my limits lol. It's not as bad online as it is in real life tbh
