Disclaimer—All characters and major canon copyright of Lazytown Entertainment; I am not making any money off of this, so please don't sue me over this, I'm too poor to do what I want in life, let alone pay legal fees.
Note—I've noticed in this fandom that this pairing has been used, but either it doesn't work out, the author stops writing it, or it's not a positive relationship. so I plan on ending the R/S jinx as of NOW! Also should be noted that this is a Jól—Icelandic for Christmas—present for fellow FF.N writer KittyUK; I hope she enjoys it as much as I did writing it.
Another thing to be noted is that I have placed Lazytown somewhere where I can explain the surroundings without worrying i'm getting it wrong. as you will notice, i live in Washington State, the Northwest to be more precise, so the places I describe are places I know and any events that happen, like say something mentioned in the news, actually occurred at some point. I'm sorry if this doesn't agree anyone's particular views/opinions on where Lazytown is set on a map, but I decided it wasn't best to write details about a fictional nor real life place. Thus, this story is the most obvious Alternate Reality you may ever see, as I shall actually make Lazytown's existence somewhat believable. If you wish to know where about I have set the town, don't be afraid to ask.
For future reference—
The Interlude, originally released on Hallowe'en, is all of that holiday that occurred in the six year span of this story. As I was writing the end of Part One, I realised that Hallowe'en was almost upon the world, and found myself thinking of the holiday which I had, at that time, left out of the story. Hence, this chapter came into being. It also served as a nice teaser to what I've been slaving my Autumn on.
Part One spans quite some time, but most of the beginning is legwork for the rest of the plot. The real important parts are slow, almost, but expressive nonetheless. It is fitting that it, overall, expresses Stephanie's view. This was posted on the 15th of December, the first day of Jól.
Part Two spans out strangely, taking time in some places, and jumping in others. The setting is described more, but because of legal reasons, many places are not named. Some new characters, important in their own way, are introduced, and fittingly, Robbie's feelings are explored. This was posted on the 20th of December, the fifth day of Jól.
Part Three is the sum of the other parts, as it were, with the plot coming to a head. Both Stephanie and Robbie have their feelings shown, and they also learned the feelings of those around them. A few things left from Part One is answered, and I leave it open-ended by ending on Christmas Day of that year. This was meant be posted on the 25th of December, the tenth day of Jól, but I changed my mind and posted it Christmas Eve, making the final bit a look into the future, even by one day.
Summertime is an addition I wrote that, until this update today, was not originally included in the gift but that I wrote for my own enjoyment; I hope it's well received and liked.
Please enjoy the story as much as I enjoyed writing it.
