[On Dasher And Prancer, Comet..]

The first thing people hear is Ho Ho Ho echoing down the street, and halting to look they see Bitch's monster sized dogs dressed up as reindeer. They are easily moving through the snow covered road with a sled hooked up to them being pulled. Said sled is a pimped out Christmas one, all bright and glittery with lights twinkling out of small open spots along the entire thing.
On the sled we see Bitch also dressed as a reindeer holding the reins to control where the dogs go, and even from afar her body language is screaming uncomfortable. Sitting on the right side is Regent dressed up as a elf with a massive candy cane instead of his customary scepter that he uses in fights. He is tossing out small versions of his candy cane as they go along, and damn does he seem bored being there.
To the left we have Tattletale dressed up also as a elf, she is cheering wildly while waving and tossing out small boxes as gifts to everyone they pass by. Inside those boxes are twenty dollar gift cards to all kinds of places. Best Buy, Amazon, Pizza Hut, an adult store... Yeah, I really mean all kinds of places when I said it.
In the middle of this entire thing is Grue looking like Santa, a very muscular one at that. He has his arms wrapped around Skitter who just so happens to be dressed up as Mrs. Claus while sitting on him. Directly behind them is the large stereo system to blast out the music along with iconic laughter. The two looked just as uncomfortable as Bitch, though if one could see under the mask it would be noticed right away how red Skitter is and how large of a smile she is wearing.
This is all happening because they recently took out Coil. He made a fuck up while very drunk and so a timeline got dropped that wasn't supposed to be, in the end the Undersiders went after him for what he tried to do. They also won, and while winning Lisa stole every electronic account he had. While there was some hazardous work, dealing with the Travelers being the main thing, it all ended well.
Really the only thing that stopped them from being flattened was Lisa showing a encrypted file to them about how Coil was fucking them over, and how he planned to continue doing so. Giving them a fairly large chunk of cash to shoo also helped a great deal.
So yes, this all is happening because of that. After it was done Lisa semi held hostage the massive amount of money unless they had some fun to throw off any lingering problems between them. As it was Christmas time she decided to give out gifts, which had Taylor wondering if they could do it while being in a sleigh, followed by Alec making a comment on how the dogs would make good reindeer. It spiraled out of control from there and we arrive where we are now.
Which is currently trying to lose Armsmaster who is on his bike trying to get them to stop without causing damage to the people or surroundings. Taking a sharp left they continued on down the road swerving between cars, only for Glory Girl to swoop down and try to land on the sled with her arms crossed. Trying to appear suddenly like a badass is always a plus after all in her mind.
This turned out to be a mistake as it was slippery out and her near cartoonish arm waving fall of surprise was captured for the world to see by none other than Clockblocker, though in civvies. He was there because Dean dragged him along so he wouldn't be alone with Vicky when shopping.
Nearly crashing his bike Armsmaster managed to maneuver around Vicky who was sitting up shaking her head. Deciding that was enough he finally pulled out something to halt them, though this might not have been the best idea ever. Tattletale saw this so with a nudge to Grue had The Darkness⢠spilling out on the street behind him, obscuring Armsmaster vision so completely he had to stop his bike if he wanted to stay on.
With the last of the presents away the dogs shrunk down and they all dove through a open manhole cover. Why was it open you may ask? Because it was stolen by Menja to be used as a impromptu weapon during a brief fight with some Merchants. Yep, their idea of spreading the holiday cheer didn't agree with everyone.
And so the Undersiders have once again escaped custody despite the odds. As they had two video recorders that were being used of them playing Santa and his Elves it was uploaded to PHO, along with Dennis's. Of course PHO went crazy over it, and there was now a meme about Glory Girl's Slippery Rail. The following days proved highly amusing to those keeping up with their threads. Joy to the world, some things never change.
