A/N: Here is a short little scene from the Rory/Logan adventures. Hope you enjoy it!
The Snuggie
Logan held up the mass of fleece, the evidence there in his hand like some soiled sheet. She covered her mouth with her hand and turned away as he stepped forward and asked, "What is this? Seriously, Ace."
She turned her eyes to him again and pursed her lips before she answered, "That, Logan, is a Snuggie."
He held it gingerly and let it unfurl to its full length. It was a candy apple red, dotted with white snowflakes. They looked just like they did in those garish infomercials. Distaste was evident on his face without him uttering one word and Rory laughed "Why?" he asked. "Why would you ever, ever buy this?"
"My mom has a matching one."
He gaped at her. "Tell me this is a joke."
"Nope," Rory said, rounding out the word. "Just another example of Emily Gilmore being, well, Emily Gilmore."
He sat down on her bed. "Please explain."
"We bought something for you girls," Emily said, approaching Rory and Lorelai with a large shopping bag from Neiman Marcus. She handed it to Lorelai, who cooed like a small child, while Rory said, "Grandma, you didn't have to get us anything. It's not even a holiday."
"Nonsense, I heard these were all the rage. And when I saw that at Neiman Marcus, well, I just knew I had to get them for my girls." Neither of her girls made any move to open the gift and she prodded, "Come on, now, open it."
Lorelai reached in and took out one tissue wrapped bundle. She passed it over to Rory and fished out the other bundle. They look at each other briefly first, both of them passing a look of wary interest, and then they set to opening the packages.
Lorelai began to laugh first, not having the expert control of her daughter, when she found a Snuggie in her lap.
"What's so funny?" Emily snapped, pursing her lips as she noticed Rory biting back laughter. "Don't you like them?"
"I love my Snuggie, Mom," Lorelai said between bouts of laughter.
"It's great, Grandma," Rory said, her voice nearly sincere.
Lorelai's voice is strangled with unresolved laughter as she seconded, "Yeah, real great. Um, when did Neiman Marcus start selling these?"
"I don't see what that has to do with anything," Emily clipped, sensing that she was the expense of some joke between the two.
"It just seems like a weird thing for that store to sell," Lorelai explained, glancing down at the Snuggie as her face screwed up again. "I mean..it's a Snuggie."
She laughed into her hand, while Emily shook her head and said, "I really don't see what is so funny." Another shake of her expertly coiffed head and she huffed, "The way you two behave. Honestly."
"Emily gave you the Snuggie," Logan repeated. "That woman is just full of surprises."
"I kind of like it," Rory reasoned, taking it from him. "I can stay warm and still have full use of my hands. It's kind of ingenious."
Logan shook his head. "It is times like this that I question your sanity."
"And you love it," she quipped, leaning forward to give him a quick kiss. "And it has given my mom and I endless entertainment. We wear them when we talk on the phone."
Logan stared at her. "You guys are so weird."
A/N: I know this is super short but it really was just a scene I thought of after seeing the latest Snuggie infomercial. Those things are just so weird, haha. To be honest, these short little things tend to come to me a lot so you may all be getting more of these in the future. That does mean more frequent updates, though :)
