!IMPORTANT! If you'll remember, I said in a previous chapter that I'm not exactly sure if Shu and Yuki celebrate Christmas. So while my previous drabbles hvae been working under the assumption that they do, this one is in a universe where Shu at least is not Christian and his only exposure to Christmas has been widely known media points. So yeah, an outsiders view on Christmas.

Okay, so this one is all dialouge, and it was hella fun to write. And disclaimer- not mine

"Hey Yuki, you used to live in America right?"

"Yeah, why?"

"What's the deal with Christmas?"

"Huh? What do you mean?"

"Well, we were talking about it at the studio today, and K was telling me that his kids were looking forward to Santa coming."

"Yeah. And?"

"Well, when I asked, he said that that Santa came down the chimney to leave stuff under the tree that they put up, and that he would eat their cookies."

"You're a little off, but that's the general idea."

"..."

"What?"

"And... And kids like that?"

"Well, sure. Why not?"

"It's just... I mean, I would not have enjoyed the idea of some stranger forcing his way into my house and leaving packages around my house, and then stealing my food. I think it would have terrified me."

"It's not quite like that, Shu-"

"Then what is it?"

"... Actually, yeah. It's exactly like that."

"You see what I mean? It's scary, not fun!"

"I... wow. That is messed up..."


LOL, so this is based on my Jewish friend's dissection of Christmas. You should hear what he has to say about Easter.
