GDI ASH AND YOUR FAIL

[crytearsofjoy]

[Winry, actually, is supposed to be SLEEPING. But Den is barking and making all kinds of noise and pissing off Al's cats, so the girl does get up. Lucky you she didn't sleep through it.

She opens the door, and sees no more than two green shapes, about identical in size. Damn the sleep in her eyes. Who did she know that was green? Oh yeah.] Don? Raph?

DON'T LECTURE ME WOMAN

[meanandgreen]

Raph. I uh, dunno if you do Christmas but I got you a tree. 'Cause, y'know, was gonna get one for the house anyways. Thought it couldn't hurt. So, ah...

[Then he processes her sleepy look.]

You sleepin' in the middle of the day again?

/LECTURES

[crytearsofjoy]

[It'll take her a while to process what you said, but she moves to the side so you can come in. This house is well heated Raph. Get out of that could before you go into Torpor.]

Middle of the-? Raph, it's early.

GET BACK IN THE KITCHEN

[meanandgreen]

[He does so gratefully, loosening his scarf a little to talk to her. In his defense, he is quite bundled up. Bundled to the point of looking more like a very short, very fat man.]

What? It's light outside! You've thrown out half the day already!

[i_speak_softly]

[If Raph is not totally absorbed in his ornament making, he might notice his brother shuffle into the kitchen and begin rifling through the cabinets. The sound of a large mixing bowl clattering onto the counter might be his first hint that Donatello isn't just searching for breakfast.]

[meanandgreen]

[Oh yes, he is completely absorbed in folding one of these little guys. Except not. He knows what you're doing without even having to look.]

Bakin's where I draw the line, you know.

[i_speak_softly]

[A wooden spoon and an egg beater join the mixing bowl.]

I'm determined to get some this year.

'Long as you don't burn them or nothing.
