A/N: Okay, so I'm slightly late. XD But my dad pretty much took over the computer to mess with iTunes, and wouldn't let anyone use the internet. And also, I am sick. Which kind of sucks.
Much thanks and love goes out to wickedchik500, who gave me this idea. I will type up your theifshipping present, love! I promise! *hearts* (Just wait 'till I'm not half dead, kay?)
Disclaimer: I own Christmas and Yu-Gi-Oh! now. Yes. (*is lying*)
Marik scowled, staring moodily into his eggnog. Around him, a Christmas party was in full-swing, complete with the annoying music, the blindingly-sparkly tree, and the wreaths that insisted on jumping out at him and smacking him in the face every time he tried to walk through a door.
Christmas equaled horrible equaled sucked.
"I am not Christian. I will never be Christian. Why the fuck am I celebrating this holiday?" Marik said to Bakura, waving his glass around and just barely managing not to spill eggnog all over the reindeer-printed carpeting.
"It's simple," Bakura said, leaning up against the wall. "There are plenty of perfectly logical explanations for why a group of mainly Egyptian people are celebrating a holiday meant to honor the birth of someone who has nothing to do with their respective religions.
Marik folded his arms. "Name one."
"Well there's... there's... that is..."
Bakura scratched his head. "Well, hot damn. Why the hell are we even doing this?"
So, to prevent their brains from exploding from the sheer lack of logic that the situation seemed to be implying, Marik and Bakura struggled to come up with a list of reasons as to why they were partaking in a Christmas party.
Unfortunately, it was a little harder than they had originally expected.
"Uh... spending time with family?"
"We do that every day anyway, and we don't like it then either."
"Fun songs to sing?"
"No. Just no."
"Spreading peace and good will to mankind?"
"... Marik, what the hell have you been smoking?"
Just then, Yami walked past, whistling merrily and carrying a gift bag under his arm.
Marik and Bakura looked at each other, then pounced.
"Oi, Yami!" Bakura said. "Why do you celebrate Christmas?"
Yami looked at him like he was crazy. "Two words, Bakura: free shit."
And thus, the Christmas mystery was solved.
So... freaking... pointless. XD Merry Belated Christmas/ whatever it is you celebrate! :D Thank you very much for all of your kind words. They're the best presents you could give me. 3
