'Twas the Night Before Christmas...

Dec 24, 2007 09:30

Most people scoff at the idea of a real Santa Claus.

In a quiet room in a quiet house on a quiet island, an old man settled his bones in a comfortable chair and gazed out his window at the wind-tossed waves. Before him, on the table in front of the window, lay a collection of blue-and-white candles and a menorah. Next to the menorah lay a velvet bag filled with rich dark earth, and on the other side of that rested the most visible sigil of Magneto, his helmet ( ... )

Thor has never believed in Santa. He's most distinctly not Christian either. But Yule... he has a lot of good memories of it. And this year, for the first time in over a decade, he's getting to celebrate it properly ( ... )

Pink tennis shoes are haphazardly kicked off, jacket flung across the room - landing haphazardly on O.L. The new gear is tugged on and she's off.

No matter that it's L.A. No matter that there's no snow. No matter that there's no need for warm fuzzy boots or a heavy scarlet cape.

"No!" She punches him in the shoulder. "Look, he knows you're coming by because you're a teammate and your family are all putzes, and you helped save me, so he wanted you to come by anyway.

There's only one present Carmilla bothered to get this year and it's not even a present. It's a case of expensive (if one can apply the term to it) Irish Beer.

It's missing three cans.

Incidentally, Carmilla's fridge in her apartment is home to three cans of beer.

Niels is not happy. Lord knows how Robbie's mother got the antlers onto the cat in the first place, but Robbie undoes all of that work by removing the antlers. And, in the spirit of Christmas, gives Niels a tuna sandwich.
