Tis the season to be jolly.

Yes, I know it's way past Christmas but better late than never! This is for my friends at the Randomninity forum, Sleeping Tiger and of course, Aevany!

With love and seasonal greetings,

Quidam

P.S. Sorry if it looks screwy, I can't seem to fix it.


'Twas the night before Christmas and everyone knew
Not a creature was stirring, not even a Mary Sue
The stockings were hung by the chimney with care,
in hopes that our loot soon would be there

Puddy and Fearful were nestled all snug in their beds,
while visions of rather naughty things danced in their heads.
Ashley and I were wide awake, surfing the net
While Mystitat and Tigeress didn't get any rest

Then from downstairs came a great cry
And Apex and taij zann rung nearly flew by

But they stopped and were talking so fast

That you thought they were on something or just had gas

"You'll never believe this!" Apex was jumpy
"He came! It worked!" Her sister was happy
All excited, we all ran down the stairs

FelNinIty and Rumpelteazer were already there

As the boxes rattled and shook all about
We heard them inside and we all gave a shout
As we tore open the boxes, so excited they came
As we opened them up, we called them by name:

"Admetus!" I yelled, love struck as ever
"Oh Misto!" Ashley hugged him. "I'll love you forever!"
"Back off, his mine!" Mystitat grabbed his arm.
Puddy smiled, knowing he would be harmed
"I got Mungo!" Serendipity was smiling widely.

"Seren, you know," Rumpel began. "You'll share him with me."
I watched as both Taij and Attila fought over Macavity

And I was glad I had Admetus just for me

"I wonder where Tugger is!" Fearful did declare
And we got to wondering, why wasn't he here?
But then we heard a muffled meow from another box
That was made of metal and covered in locks!

As we undid the locks, a note did fall
Deminia picked it up and read to all
"This one gave me trouble," St. Nick did write
"But if you love him, he'll be alright."

Lo and behold! There was the most curious beast
And we could tell from his look, he wanted to be released
But when he saw all the lovely women staring with glee

"Wow," He said. "You are ladies for me?"

The last one to come down, was Sleeping Tiger
And I wanted her to know how much I loved her
So I ran out the room and returned with a gift
He was tall, silver and black and totally miffed
Tiger nearly swooned as Munkustrap hissed
"You!" He glared at me. "I'll get you for this!"
I merely smiled and gave him away
Knowing that Tiger would love for this day

Then I wondered if Aevany would enjoy her tom

The patched Alonzo, big, brawny and strong

I had sent via Fed Ex Express!

Sending my love and wishing her the best

"This can't get any worse!" Mistoffelees wailed.
"These girls are crazy and should be in jail!"
"Don't jinx us!" Mungo wanted to stay cheerful
Sadly, he didn't know about the stories written by Fearful

All through the day and all through the night

The Jellicle toms were stuck in their plight

But just as the lights turned off, they gave a shout

"Merry Christmas! Someone save us! We want to get out!"
