Surprise! This came together thanks to Batthan the Dark Knight suggesting that I do something like this. Now, this will be set after the reactions are done and the tournament happened without any problems from Salem's lot. So volumes 4 and onwards never happened.

Earth-1358
Lex was humming as she was putting several presents under the tree before putting some through a portal for Katana's family. She softly sang as she fixed up some of the stockings. (1)
Lex: There's magic in the air this evening
Magic in the air
The world is at her best, you know
When people love and care
The promise of excitement is one the night will keep
After all, there's only one more sleep 'til Christmas
Sunset smiled as she heard her wife while she worked on Christmas dinner with Lita. She sighed at the sight and smell of the food being just about ready and used her magic to create several clones to help them put everything together. "Perfect." She said as Lita brought the turkey out of the oven and smiled as she saw it was ready to be separated before getting to work.
Sunset: The world has got a smile today
The world has got a glow
There's no such thing as strangers when
A stranger says "hello"
And everyone is family, we're having so much fun
After all, there's only one more sleep 'til Christmas
Anko smiled as she walked with Mei, Cadance, Chrysalis and Flurry Heart. The kunoichi and mares were holding the fillies' hands as they were walking to the estate for the family dinner. The fillies were happy at being able to spend the holidays together. Cadance kissed her Changeling wife as they smiled at their daughter.
Cadance: 'Tis the season to be jolly and joyous
With a burst of pleasure, we feel it all right
It's the season when the saints can employ us
To spread the news about peace and to keep love alive
Mei giggled as she waved to an elderly couple as they got closer to their home. "Merry Christmas!" Trixie used her magic to fix some of the lights and decorations on the estate before seeing them and she waved at them. "Mommy!" Mei called out as she ran to Trixie who picked her up and kissed Anko as the five of them looked at the estate's decorations with smiles before walking to the door.
Trixie: There's something in the wind today
That's good for everyone
Yes, faith is in our hearts today
We're shining like the sun
And everyone can feel it, the feeling's running deep
Everyone: After all, there's only one more sleep 'til Christmas
Lex: After all, there's only one more sleep 'til Christmas Day
Lex sighed and looked at the group photo Tali took from the end of the reactions. She gently thumbed the photo before hearing Anko calling for her and she headed to the main lobby. "Coming, honey!"
Meanwhile…
Remnant-0481
Cinder and Ruby were walking amongst the snow covered grounds of Beacon. Cinder sighed and Ruby looked up at her mate. "You okay, Cindy?"
Cinder shook her head. "Honestly? No, I guess I'm feeling homesick. It's probably Christmas back home and that means Mama's making dinner for the clan while Mother's putting presents under the tree."
Ruby held her mate's hand. "Well, who knows? Maybe you'll get to spend time with them."
Cinder smiled softly at Ruby. "You always know what to say to cheer me up, my seductive sniper."
Ruby leaned up and kissed Cinder lovingly. "Well you know how to make my days better, my fiery fox."
They soon spotted Emerald, Blake and Ilia as they were coming out of the cafeteria. Emerald saw her twin and brought her into a hug. "Merry Christmas, big sis."
Cinder smiled softly and hugged Emerald back. "Merry Christmas, imouto."
"So, did you get Mom's message?"
Cinder looked at her twin in confusion. "What message?"
Emerald smirked as a portal opened up and looked at her sister. "That message. Now come on, everyone's waiting for us." Emerald went into the portal with her mates before Ruby and Cinder followed her.
As Lex got closer to the main lobby she heard Mei give a joyful cry of 'Emmy!', her eyes widened and she rushed to the lobby. She gasped as she saw everyone there with Emerald and Cinder hugging their little sister with Mei giggling and hugging them back. She teared up when she saw them. "E-Emerald? Cinder?" She approached them and pulled her daughters into a motherly embrace. "You're home! B-But how did you get here?"
Robin chuckled as she entered the lobby. "I pulled a few strings and managed to get your bosses to allow them to visit for Christmas." Robin kissed Emerald's forehead and hugged her daughter. "Or rather they're allowed to visit whenever they want and we can do the same." Robin kissed her wife and smiled softly. "Merry Christmas Lexious." The Skyguard clan all soon joined the group hug.
The Remnant Reactors, as Ruby called them, were all gathered in Lex's giant theater and sitting with their family or lovers while enjoying their drinks and snack of choice after Sunset and Lita made them dinner. Penny looked at Lex while snuggling with Weiss under a blanket. "So, according to Emerald, you watch specials or movies around this time, is that correct Lex?"
Lex nodded. "Any in particular you want to watch?" She was sitting by herself as Mei and Flurry were tired after supper and she tucked Mei in with Chrysalis tucking in Flurry Heart. Plus her wives wanted to surprise her after she had done so much the past few months.
Emerald blushed lightly while her and Ilia cuddled with Blake. "C-Can we watch the Grinch, Momma?"
Lex smiled softly as that was Emerald's favourite special growing up. "Sure sweetie. Relax and enjoy one of the most famous tales of the season, everyone. This is Dr. Seuss' How the Grinch Stole Christmas." Everyone relaxed in their seats as the classic animated special played.
(1) - One More Sleep Til Christmas from The Muppets Christmas Carol
That's right! We're going with the 1966 classic, ironically it came out the year that my dad was born. I hope you all enjoy this special reaction, everyone.
Again, thank you Batthan for suggesting this to me. I should hopefully have the special done around Christmas. If this does well enough, it'll become a yearly thing just for you guys!
Anyways, this is church2550 signing off til next time.
Stay safe out there, Guardians.
