ABC's of Christmas, Slayer Style
G is for Grinch
"You've never seen the Grinch?" Buffy asked in disbelief, staring at the brunette standing casually before her with something approaching horror. "How could you never have watched the Grinch?! That's like THE Christmas show- it's, it's not American not to have seen it!"
"Nope," Faith said easily, completely unruffled by Buffy's reaction. "Our TV reception sucked when I was a kid, I didn't bother trying to watch much. Didn't care enough to when I was older."
"But Faith- how could you not have seen it at least one time?!" Buffy sputtered, opening her arms up dramatically. "Even Willow has seen it, and she's Jewish! She was banned from Christmas as a kid! Come on, you never saw it even once? Fuzzy green mean guy who takes Christmas from all the Whos?"
"The who's?" Faith asked, frowning slightly. "Who's who?"
"The WHOS! You know- Cindy Lou, who was no more than two, and all the rest of them. Little weird antler things- I can't believe you've never seen it!" Buffy cried, shaking her head in disbelief. "It was Dawn's favorite show ever…we wanted to adopt Max, the Grinch's dog he dressed up like a reindeer…"
"Sounds pretty stupid to me," Faith interrupted bluntly, shrugging. "Like I probably wasn't missing much."
Buffy's eyes widened even further, and abruptly she grabbed Faith's hand, starting to lead her over to the couch. Faith followed, confused if willing, and as Buffy almost jerked her to sit down next to her, fumbling for the remote control, Faith looked at her in confusion.
"It comes on like ten times a day when it's close to Christmas…so YOU are gonna sit here and watch it with me as soon as I find a time close enough. Never saw the Grinch, I can't believe this…"
Faith just grinned as Buffy continued to mutter to herself, and she made herself comfortable snuggling up against her side. She wasn't about to complain.
