2nd Floor Common Room. (Late Evening)

[psycho-barbie.livejournal.com]

Callisto sat watching an old Bitterwoman re-run.

It was entirely possible she was lying in wait waiting for someone to make an appearance.

Angel got back to the second floor after taking Sean for a walk. Hearing the TV on, he stopped by the common room to see if it was anyone who hadn't had a chance to meet the cuteness that was his new puppy.

Callisto turned down the sound when she saw Angel and the omg cute puppy. "Angel."

[notstakedyet.livejournal.com]

"Hey, Cal," Angel said, casually. Then he remembered the conversation he'd had with John and Aeryn that morning. There might have been a brief flash of panic in his eyes. "Hey! Cal. Uh - hi."

[psycho-barbie.livejournal.com]

"I had a talk with Aeryn today," Callisto spoke with a deliberately casual tone. "It was...interesting."

Kawalsky poked his head inside and looked around. He then disappeared for a few minutes.

Kawalsky returned with a small package for Angel (http://www.whatonearthcatalog.com/whatonearth/Themes_300/Music_3AR/Item_Elvis-Blue-Hawaii-T-Shirt_AP4792T_ps_cti-3AR.html) and several (http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/0764552287/qid=1134818189/sr=8-10/ref=pd_bbs_10/104-7862866-4355936?v=glance&s=books&n=507846) for (http://www.whatonearthcatalog.com/whatonearth/-Accessories_1AE/View-All-Jewelry-Accessories_1CF/Item_Leather-Barbed-Wire-Jewelry_AS2662G_ps_cti-1CF.html) Callisto.

If Callisto wasn't in the middle of stalking Angel she'd point Kawalsky in the direction of two packages (http://pics.livejournal.com/psycho_barbie/tags/kawalsky+xmas/) with his name on them lying near the couch.

[kawalsky.livejournal.com]

Kawalsky saw the packages with his name on them. He picked them up and replaced them with the labelled packages for Angel and Callisto, then disappeared out of the room with his own packages. He'd thank Callisto later, when she wasn't busy with Tall, Dark and Bitey.

[notstakedyet.livejournal.com]

If Angel wasn't in the middle of folding like a card table under Callisto's glare, he'd thank Kawalsky for the gift and mention he'd have something for him tomorrow when he finally got around to having a gift post go up.

Anders, still trying to clear out the huge pile of presents currently eating up the floor of his and Cally's room, peeked around the corner into the common room and immediately bounded over with packages in his arms when he spotted both Angel and Kawalsky there.

"Hey, guys. Got stuff for ya."

[kawalsky.livejournal.com]

"I think they're flirting. Or maybe fighting. Hang on, I've got something for you too." He disappeared down the hall and reappeared with Anders' (http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/B0009ETFTO/qid=1134291977/sr=8-18/ref=sr_8_xs_ap_i3_xgl21/104-7862866-4355936?v=glance&s=toys&n=507846)
gifts. (http://www.mcphee.com/items/10382.html)

"Cool!" grinned Anders, unwrapping the baseball game. "Once we get our TV, this'll come in way handy. And we can put this on top of the TV," he added, holding up the hula figurine.

He handed Kawalsky a flat circular package (http://www.thinkgeek.com/geektoys/cubegoodies/5ac8/), and a decent-sized rectangular box (http://www.thinkgeek.com/geektoys/warfare/78d9/), each wrapped in red paper with gold stick-on bows. "And those are for you, dude. Merry Christimas!"

Eyeing Angel and Callisto, he smirked. "Could be both, y'know."

[kawalsky.livejournal.com]

"You're right, could be both." He unwrapped his gifts and grinned. "Thanks, man. These are great."

Logan was walking through the common room when he spotted the TV. "Oh! Bitterwoman! Is this the one where the disgruntled teacher gets bitten by a mutant cockroach?" He flopped down on a couch to watch.

[cantgetnorelief.livejournal.com]

Anders was just about to head back to his room when Logan wandered in. "Echolls! I got a present for you, man, but you might not wanna open it in here." Hurrying around the corner to his room, he came back shortly with a pretty good-sized box wrapped in gold paper, with a red stick-on bow (http://www.whatonearthcatalog.com/whatonearth/Home-Garden_1AD/Kitchen_1BP/Item_Giant-German-Pilsner_AT9922_ps_cti-1BP.html), and set it down on the floor next to Logan's couch.

"You got Logan a present! Wow! That's fantastic! Are you an elf too?"

[fh_jackass]

"Hey, Anders! Thanks!" Logan grinned, and pondered his statement for a moment. "Is it the sort of thing that'll get me stuck in a pagent?" he asked.

[psycho-barbie.livejournal.com]

If Callisto wasn't currently sitting on top of Angel she'd have waved and pointed Logan towards his presents (http://pics.livejournal.com/psycho_barbie/tags/logan+xmas/) that were sitting near one of the chairs.

Marty the elf plopped down on the couch next to Logan.

"Hey Logan! You want to help me spread Christmas Cheer throughout the town of Fandom! Christmas is only Five Days away! Can you believe that ? Soon Santa will be here! SANTA!"

Marty starts clapping like a loon.

Sean had been watching Dad play his strange game with the girl Sean had never met before. But then there were new people, only one of whom Sean recognized. Clearly introductions had to occur.

He walked over to the new people and barked, wagging his tail.

Logan sighed. "Seriously, Marty, you should consider peanut butter and jelly sandwiches."

[oatmanspatient.livejournal.com]

After being bitten by a gremlin (http://www.livejournal.com/users/oatmanspatient/26957.html), Marty the Elf bounded into the room full of the Christmas spirit.

"Hey Everybody! It's almost Christmas! SANTA'S COMING SOON!"

Marty dances a happy jig!

Barbossa walked into the common room, packages looking suspiciously like rum bottles wrapped in jaunty paper in his hands.

They also had eyepatches around the neck where he had written the name of each recipient in old fashioned script.

He paused for a moment when saw what Marty was wearing.

"Merry Christmas t' ye," he said slowly.

Normally it took at least another bottle before he began hallicinating dancing elves.

[oatmanspatient.livejournal.com]

Marty the Elf starts jumping up and down. "Merry Christmas to you! Are you a pirate? Have you been a good pirate? I don't know of any pirates on the good list. Do you know there's only four days left until Christmas? And then Santa will be here! SANTA! YAY!"

Marty starts doing an Elf jig.

At some point after talking to Marty, Barbossa might notice two presents (http://pics.livejournal.com/psycho_barbie/tags/barbossa+xmas/) with his name on them lying on a couch.
