GETTING READY~

[jollyhappysoul]

My dear child no. No it is never too early for the warmth and joy of any season! I have often felt that I start far too late as it is, so I commend your efforts! [chuckle]

So to all who read these words I say unto the following. To you the warmest greetings of this holiday, and my sincerest apologies for being so very late! The Elves and I have been hard at work and tonight we fly.

To each of you who I may visit tonight and into the early hours of the twenty fifth, may your season and your year be filled with joy and harmony. May you be in the company of the best among you, and may you find he compassion within you to tolerate the worst.

Bogged down in the frenzy of your shopping and your holiday plans I wish for each and every one of you to take a moment to look about you and recognize you are blessed. Nay brothers and sisters, children [He puts on the warmest smile that he can.]

You are each loved.

Now! If there is anything I might have missed don't hesitate to inform me! Soon enough the reindeer will be hitched and we'll be on our way!

[Evil the Cat rolls his eyes.]

You again.

[jollyhappysoul]

It's the one day...night of the year I work. To my shame and my chagrin. Where else would I go?

[minor_setback]

[...To Planet Heck. Where Evil the Cat could torture him for all eternity. With songs from Justin Bieber. And movies of sparkly vampires.]

I have a couple ideas...

[jollyhappysoul]

[Just a smile] Ideas.

[Hard to tell if guessing about those ideas or...]

[minor_setback]

Yes. Ideas~.

[Evil the Cat begins laughing evilly with hellfire erupting behind him. Naturally, he does this in front of SANTA CLAUS.]

[jollyhappysoul]

[Eyebrow raise, and then, a laugh] Careful! Careful. I'll be facing enough fires and chimney smoke tonight thank you my boy!

[minor_setback]

Oh, come now. I'm always careful while not ultimately destroying the universe. I mean, why would I want to destroy the universe?

...I wouldn't, in case you didn't know the answer.

[jollyhappysoul]

Would you like something that could facilitate this?

[minor_setback]

[Wait...]

...What?

[observesthings]

[ holy shit he's real ]

[jollyhappysoul]

It seems only fair [And it will buy time for heroes to stop him] The world ends in 2015 lad!

Of course, you are on my nice list yes? You haven't done anything this year?

[If he brings Stewie Griffin plutonium, he can bring other things].

[jollyhappysoul]

[Just the biggest smile] I don't bite! Come, tell me your name and what you want for Christmas.

[allsfairinloveandvore]

[The changeling tilts her head. What is this creature? She decides to scan what emotions this red-clothed thing has.]

[jollyhappysoul]

[Nothing but joy, love, and happiness. He does love his job]

[observesthings]

[ JUST DON'T MAKE HIM GET ON YOUR KNEE. For your sake, his girlfriend is crazy like that. He takes a cautious few steps forward... ]

Umm... [ Crap, what does he even ask for? ] ... a telescope.

[icythroughme]

[Wait. Wait...

Elves.

Reindeer? Visiting tons of houses on the 25th? It...it can't be.]

Who...what...North?

[lightofhumanity]

[Since chaos is the man behind Jesus in his canon, this makes him smile..even if the smile does look sad.]

It is good to see that you exist here. If it is not too much trouble, may I ask one thing for Christmas?

[minor_setback]

[Well, Evil the Cat nearly succeeded in destroying the universe a few days ago. Before that, he nearly succeeded in 2000. With that being said, Evil the Cat has a pile of coal that's as big as Mt. Everest.]

...

...

...I've been good.

[jollyhappysoul]

[One pair of spectacles, one very long yellowed list..] Telescope?

Any particular make, model...

[jollyhappysoul]

[Those bushy eyebrows go wide and he beams] Jack Frost yes? Hello lad!


[He shrugs] I may not be your North, but perhaps we have the same intents and that is all to the good. There's far too much work for one man, even a man such as me!

[allsfairinloveandvore]

[Okay, wow. Taste explosion. The changeling flinches a bit from the intensity.]

Wow. What are you?

[jollyhappysoul]

[One gentle nod] Ah - ah I need a name first. So I can check my lists...

[tohko_amano]

[Tohko loves stories, even the holiday tales. So, her eyes just widen when she sees and hears Santa.]

I-it's wonderful to finally meet you, sir! I've read so many delicious and sweet stories about you, but I never thought I'd get to actually meet you! This is wonderful!

[jollyhappysoul]

[Santa smiles]

I have many names. St. Nick, Kris Kringle. The most common, the one you might know ... is Santa.

Now, I have a head for names but not for species, what are you?

[observesthings]

O-Oh, right!

[ Make, model... umm... ]

C-Celeston. A reflector!
