'Twas the Night Before Christmas...

[old_saint_nick]

Most people scoff at the idea of a real Santa Claus. There simply is no way that an immortal elderly-appearing fat-man could travel the world in one night, giving gifts to good boys and girls all over the planet in a flying sleigh pulled by reindeer... and that's even before one considers the difficulties in spying on all the children of the world

Helena only buys three presents this year - there are only three people in her life she considers worth spending money on, after all, and her budget is more limited than most.

Dinah gets a new set of fishnet stockings.

...well, okay. Those are a joke. (Wait, since when did Helena has a sense of humor? Perhaps she's been around Jason too long.) The real present is a pair of earrings.

Barbara's gift is a little more conservative in gesture -- they're still working on the friendship thing, and she's still not entirely sure what she likes. She's opted therefore to give her a gift set of various differing exotic teas, and a gift card for the originating store should she want to try more.

Jason's getting something fairly practical. Hell knows he never spends money on himself, after all. He'll get a new Kevlar/Nomex-lined winter jacket, and for the warmer weather, a pair of designer sunglasses -- hidden amongst a pair of fuzzy dice. Her final present to him will involve something far more personal: she'll be waiting when he gets to her apartment tonight wearing very, very little, other than a smile.
