A/N: Hi, sorry I haven't written in forever…but school. Don't worry I'll post the new chapters of my stories soon. I wrote this after re-watching "Hell House" and since I need to start practicing writing short stuff for my Personal Statement:

Disclaimer: Not mine, if it was I wouldn't need to write a personal statement or this fanfic.


With the finishing touches of the symbol completed, Castiel backed up and examined his work making sure it was perfect. Beneath it he made sure to include a picture.

It was a few days later Dean, carrying their daughter, noticed the picture (or rather his daughter noticed the symbol).

"Daddy, what's that funny symbol on the wall?" Mary asked wiggling in her father's arms pointing.

"I don't know, honey, maybe Papa drew it." Dean said his voice growing more suspicious towards the end. Dean quickly put his daughter to bed and immediately went to call Cas. He took the picture off the wall, smirking as he did so.

"Yes, Dean?" Castiel asked as he appeared behind Dean.

Dean lifted up the picture of Santa to Castiel's eyesight, keeping his face blank, "So, Cas, why is there a tulpa symbol painted on the wall next to Mary's room?"

"Well, it's almost Christmas and I wanted Santa Clause to be real so, Mary, and other children could enjoy it more," Castiel said cocking his head to the side in a way that, Dean absolutely did not find adorable.

Dean gave a chuckle, "I hate to tell you this Cas, but it doesn't work. And adding that picture doesn't help it either, trust me."

Castiel squinted his eyes at Dean, "What do you mean, trust you on that?"

"I did it last year for Mary's first Christmas and it didn't work."


A/N: I know it's stupid and nowhere near Christmas but…someone was sing about Rudolf in choir today and why not? Hope you all liked it, and if you did (and even if you didn't) please review. Thanks for reading, have a good day/night/evening or whatever it is where you are!
