Y is for Yuletide


Christmas with AVALANCHE was always warm, but dangerous.

On a good year, the worst thing that happened was that Barret would camp on the roof, wondering what reindeer meat tasted of.

On a bad year, Yuffie and Cloud usually teamed up to convince a drunken Reeve that he was gay. Then took pictures.

Vincent's present differs.

On a bad year, he gets a sweater from Yuffie. On a good year, he and Yuffie get somewhat sweaty.

Every year, he fires one bullet to the sky for each Christmas he shares with them. It reminds him how very lucky he is.


A/N: I know it's July. The only reason why this is Christmas themed is because Y is the twenty-fifth letter of the alphabet, and Christmas is the twenty-fifth day of December.
