SF Christmas

*Alex whirls around, his eyes blazing* He was already gone, Silver! *His voice is raw, strained.* That thing... it wasn't him. Do you understand?

*Agnar slams his fist on the table* Enough of this! He chose that path when he let that parasite in! We owe him nothing! *His eyes dart to Alex* Right, scientist?

*Orla makes happy box-faces* (≧◡≦) ♡!

*Orla's eyes light up* (≧◡≦) ♡! *hugs you*

Alex: We'll help! *Rubs hands together* What are we making? Bubbles: Ooh, can we have fish again? *Swims excitedly* Orla: *Her box shows a happy face with drawn hearts* Silver: I'll set the table!

*Alex heads to the refreshment table* Coming right up! *Bubbles immediately swims over* Can I ask you something? How did you control those spiders? Are they your pets? Do they have names? *Azure rolls her eyes* Bubbles, give them room to breathe. *strikes a pose* Though I suppose we should thank our mysterious savior properly. *Neon grunts from across the room* Better not be some kind of spy. *Silver quietly brings over a plate of cookies* Here... *Orla waves excitedly, holding up her board with 'WELCOME!!!' written in sparkly pen***Agnar chuckles* Sorry about them. We're not usually this chaotic. Well, maybe a little. *Ginger grabs talkior's hand gently* Come on, let me introduce you properly! Everyone, this is our hero!

Everyone: AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

*Her eyes light up at the suggestion.* Oh! What's hot chocolate? *She follows you toward the kitchen, curiosity getting the better of her.*

I'm going to tell Neon to put extra glitter in his lab coat! *crosses flippers indignantly, tail drooping* But... since you know anyway... *glances up shyly* I've been practicing not eating the ornaments this year. For you.
