[105] The Face of TRUE HAPPINESS // Video.

[stopthat_destro]

[Oh no, it's Rex. In his suddenly redecorated room. And what's this? He's wearing a green-red-light green argyle sweater-- so fashionable, so festive. Aside from his ventilator, there's not a trace of black on him. He's humming Christmas carols softly, smiling like a creepy thing, as he hangs colored lights around the snakes' terrariums

[Oh heavens!] I see you're in a wonderful mood as well. I suppose then it's an adequate time to ask if you would attend my Otherstide.

[stopthat_destro]

You could say I've been possessed by the Christmas Spirit!

And I would love to, Doctor. Shall I bring anything? Who else is coming?

[dominie]

[That is the most terrifying thing Rex has ever said.] I've only asked T'Pol thus far, but I was going to ask if your warden would mind coming.

[stopthat_destro]

Harper's always a welcome addition to any celebration.

You been drinking, kid?

Private

[stopthat_destro]

All I've been drinking is good cheer!

..Look, I know you don't fucking trust me, but realize that you aren't acting like yourself.

Where are you?

Private

[stopthat_destro]

What, my "self" can't be happy?

I'm in my room.

[Armand isn't the particularly festive type, as evidenced by the same dreary garb he's been wearing the past however many weeks but the bright colors on Rex make him at least smile a little when he comes across him in the hallway. The vampire doesn't make a sound until,]

You're feeling better.

[Rex smiiiiles at him. Even the addiction doesn't seem to be eating away at him now. In celebration of the sight of his DEAR FRIEND, Rex smiles.]

Like Scrooge on Christmas morning. It's as though my eyes have opened up! [Rex assaults Armand with a hug. Everybody gets a hug today.] Have I ever told you how wonderful you are?

Re: Spam (THANK YOU! <3)

[whattasteisthis]

[Armand is at first surprised by the outright smile and even more so by the hug. Instead of hugging back, he puts a hand on the scientist's shoulder.]

Are you ill?

Re: Spam

[stopthat_destro]

[Rex blinks.] No, of course not.

[Pause. He laughs and slaps Armand on the shoulder.] I've never felt better! How could I be ill?

[one_who_is_many]

Agreed. Encouraging positive morale is most... Beneficial.

[stopthat_destro]

It just brings people together.

Spam.

[stopthat_destro]

[He calls out in a sing-song voice.] It's ~open!

Spam.

[stopthat_destro]

Of course I am. [He beams, and then motions to the cupcakes.] Here, enjoy. My gift to you.
