“Home for Christmas” by Nina Kiriki Hoffman.
Notes: Short story in the Math-universe. Math is a girl who can talk with inanimate objects and who sometimes convinces them to do stuff for her. In Christmas she meets a sad man at a bar and, almost by accident, they end up spending Christmas together in a totally platonic way. The descriptions and the magic were lovely, I would like to keep reading in this universe.
First read: August 2007.
