Fairly Odd Countdown Calendar

I don't own Fairly Odd Parents. Butch Hartman does.

Pairing: Cupid x Cosmo.

Prompt: Snowflakes.

"This is stupid!"

Cosmo jolted as Cupid threw down his scissors and paper, turning around in his chair and folding his arms unhappily. The green-haired fairy stared as the God continued, "Who would do this anyway?! See, this is why I don't like Christmas!"

Cosmo looked at the little pile of paper snowflakes Cupid had made - or what should have been snowflakes. Rather, instead of wintry patterns and pretty designs, they all had love hearts cut into them. No matter how hard Cupid tried, they all turned out the same. Love hearts.

Well, he was the leader of Valentine's Day.

"I think yours are pretty, Cupid." Cosmo said in an attempt to reassure him. That they were. They just weren't Christmassy.

"Oh, stop rubbing it in." Cupid grumbled, "I'm horrible at this and we both know it."

"Nah!" Cosmo said cheerfully, "Ya just gotta get the hang of it! Practise! Here, I'll show ya!"

Cupid, despite his bitterness, looked over his shoulder at the fairy as Cosmo picked up his scissors.

"See - look. Ya just do this and - no, that's not right - it's like…oh, hang on - it's sorta like - no, wait - it's like…oh."

Despite it all, Cupid couldn't help but crack a smile, even chuckle a little at the confused look on the fairy's face, for - in his excitement to show Cupid how it was done - he had wildly cut up the entire piece of paper. The fragments of what was once a full piece were now piled up on Cosmo's lap and hair.

"Uh…wait. This isn't how it's done!" Cosmo exclaimed worriedly.

"Oh, forget it, Cosmo." Cupid said, turning back to pick a piece of paper from his hair. He took one hand in his, giving Cosmo a rewarding kiss on the cheek, "Thanks for trying, though."

Cosmo smiled widely, "You're welcome! Hey!" He picked up one of Cupid's failures, "Could you show me how to make one of these ones?!"

"Oh. Yeah…I guess, so…"

Author's note:

I haven't made snowflakes since I was about seven. Never going back.
