[Sveta’s in her room, decorating a wreath with bows. Maybe there are too many on there. What of it? She’s slightly tipsy, as evidenced by the half full glass beside her, but it’s a good thing. It’s the kind of tipsy that brings about extra bows on a wreath.]

So many people in the Christmas, or holiday, spirit today. I’m not complaining about it but…

I owe Clapet a bag of peas. They were his peas. Well. That's pretty fucking funny, actually.

And I'm better, now that I'm out of Germany anyway.

I'm glad. You worried me.

And...it's not really his peas because it wasn't really him, but still...

I didn't mean to worry you. That was just a really bad port for me.

And I wasn't really me either though, right?

I know, Donny. I understand that. But I'm still going to worry.

And how do I know? I've never met a real younger version of you.

I love Christmas. I used to decorate the tree with my mother.

[Just lots of staring here. But, again, she's not going to complain about it.]

That sounds like something really...good. I'm glad that you had that, Parker.

I'll have some if you're still offering!

From what I have seen, the barge does indeed appear much improved.

[greatlightother]

It does! Well, sort of.

[failedcreator]

It is only partially improved? How is this so?

[greatlightother]

It can be a bit...much.
