Eden liked the snow, as a rule. It was a pain for the pets and Origami still seemed to find it pretty confounding, but for her, it was nice, one of the few things she'd liked about where she grew up. She liked the sun, but it was nice to have some change in the seasons, even a mild one. Everything around here had been so confusing lately, up and

And so another snow came. Gideon had actually forgotten it was December before he woke up to see his hut looked like something out of a fucking cartoon. What was really sad, what said how damn long he'd be on the island, really, was that he just went with it. What else could he do?

At least it wasn't all cartoons. It could've been worse.

"God, I know." Eden rolled her eyes. "I didn't know there were so many." Some of them were old standbys, things she'd watched every year as a kid, but others, she didn't think she'd ever heard of. After her time, maybe, or long before it or from some other reality - it was always tough to tell around here. "This place really gets into the holiday spirit."
