(Kind of late..) Christmas presents - for Nyssa, & Five if they're around/want to

[oh_rabbits]

The library was not the most traditonal of rooms to decorate for Christmas, but it was large and cozy with big armchairs and a log fire and was, unless the Tardis decided to move it, situated conveniently close to the console room. There was a tree decorated with candles ("Have you notheard of fire safety?" exclaimed Tegan the first time she saw it

Nyssa smiled widely as she came into the room, wearing a large purple wooly jumper and a pair of flannel trousers with her hair in french braids. She'd dressed up enough lately.

With two garishly wrapped presents under her arms, she grinned at Tegan, "You've certainly got the Christmas spirit." She paused, "Unless that's some sort of disease or beverage."

"What are you talking about," asked Tegan lazily, looking up with a smile as her friend wandered over. Spotting the presents Nyssa was carrying she said "I didn't know if you'd do Christmas seeing as it's not a Traken festival," then gestured to the packges beside her "but I got you something anyway."

"Christmas Spirit, one often says that you've been infected by it, I've noticed. But I've also seen several bottles labeled Spirits under the TARDIS console where the doctor tends to work."

"I wasn't going to. I didn't go to that party, not after the last one. But I figured that I might as well give you a present anyway and partake in the enjoyment of holiday foods." She grinned, holding out a package to Tegan.

"It's just a sayin- hang about, the Doctor keeps spirits under the console?" She laughed until what Nyssa said next, about the party, registered and Tegan exclaimed "I kept looking for you! You said you'd go."

Half-standing up, she took the present her friend was holding out and examined it, smiling. "Thanks." Tegan turned it over in her hands for a moment, then set it down on the table and gestured towards the box of chocolates and plate of mince pies that she'd been eating before Nyssa came in, "Have something to eat."
