That's a great song too. Still, I'm already a bit caroled out. I was thinking maybe it's time to pass out presents? I'd liked to go first since I got you all something I just know is going to really please you. You'll have to forgive me, but I didn't have time to wrap them.

*digs into an enormous box pulling out some sort of sugar coma inducing ball like thingy.

*begins throwing the coconut covered cakes

SNOBALL FIGHT!

Simonwho twitches a little, then starts to channel Seryn... *whilst still dodging snoballs*

I think my scottish blood is far too diluted with tea by now to cope with deep fried sausage and bacon and I vote for yummy roasted veggies with my turkey.


hey, this could be fun...

*makes Simonwho do the funky chicken*

*Leaving Simonwho Seryn flits back to her own body just intime to go into the kitchen and help defend the pies from the purple squid thing*

Quick! what do squid things like more than apple pie?

*starts waving random bits of food*

Disclaimer: If Simonwho is daft enough not only to leave me in his house alone but to also allow me to use his computer he has to accept that at some point i'm going to forget to log out of his account before posting.
He should also have known that it was inevitable that I would make him dance the funky chicken at any given opportunity.

*shakes off the remaining traces of Seryn*

Right, giant squid eh?

Quick, give him a diary, he'll be filling it for hours.

Mrs. Universe is mesmerized by all of the strange events that she has just been witness to.

*she shakes her head*

*gets a bright idea, and rushes over to Seryn*

"Hey! Fruity Oaty Bars! If octopi like them, maybe weird squid-thingys like them, too!"

*hands Seryn 10 Fruity Oaty Bars, one for each of the squid-thingy's tentacles*

"That should keep him bus...HEY!"
*turns to squid-thingy, who has wrapped a tentacle around Mrs. U's ankle, and tries the pull her leg away from it's tentacle*

"Don't you grab my ankle! LET GO OF ME!"

Mrs. Universe

Mrs Universe thinks to herself.

A purple tentacle creeps up to wrap around a Fruity Oaty bar.

Mrs Universe thinks.

"There! Thank you, Sparky. That should do it!" TheRealMe surveys his handiwork. A magnificent metal Christmas tree has been placed near the center of the Sereni-Tree's common room. It has very realistic branches and what look like pine needles. The robot Sparky, having shifted the display slightly, works to reinforce the base.

A short, dark-haired woman stares upward in intense concentration as she fiddles with a remote control unit. Next to her an insectoid-shaped robot extends a long metal arm. Gripped by the hand at the end of this arm is a brightly glowing ball.

TheRealMe is next to her, also staring upward. "Close, Bride4. Close. There!"

The brightly glowing ball is placed at the very top of the metal Christmas tree. The robotic arm retracts.

"Whew! That was a bit tricky," the woman says as she relaxes and adjusts her glasses. She presses another control on her device. The robot scuttles off on some new task.

"Good work, Bride4," TheRealMe says with a smile. Now we have a star atop our tree. Uh... by the way, what is its power source?"

She shrugs. "Oh, that's just some cold fusion reaction bottle that I cooked up after watching the Iron Man movie."

Merry Christmas or Happy Holidays to everyone! (Those present and correct and those absentee wanderers wherever they are)

This, I feel, calls for Sherry!
