First things first: MERRY CHRISMAHANUKKWANZAA, DEAR FLIST OF MINE!

Second things second: I got TWO Yuletide fics this year!

Deal With It is for my Dollhouse OTP, Topher and Adelle. (Because they are MEANT TO BE, I am TELLING you!) I wanted cute this-is-your-attraction-to-your-boss-on-drugs fic, and my Santa delivered! Yay!  ^_^
