At 12:01 am on December 25th, a very large covered gift basket abruptly appears outside the door to room 690, a large tag indicating that it is intended for one Draco Malfoy. If one were to listen closely, one could hear the faint sounds of breathing coming from within ( Read more... )

Glenn was still having a hard time dealing with the information he had discovered a few weeks ago about Angel.

She never really had the traditional 'Christmas Dinner' you saw in movies and she had to read up about it in some magazines to try and make sure she knew what she was doing.

was in a good mood today as she brought in the groceries. She hummed quietly to herself as she put down the bags and began to unpack. She had a lot of food for the week, but she had something special for Sunday - it was always something special. This time she decided she'd make Italian and, since she had the time, she was even going to try her hand ( Read more... )

Jake's GTO was in the village, but he really had no use for it most of the time. It wasn't like you couldn't walk to most places within twenty minutes or so and he didn't do a lot of moving things around to warrant using his car for that. Still, the Newfoundlander found himself taking car of his baby. In case he did need it, or even if the slight ( Read more... )
