*cackle* Poor Ray! How'd a sensible guy like him end up falling for such a freak, anyway?

I love Ray's clinging to this little bit of childhood belief:

Ray sighed. “Look, Rudolph was a magical reindeer. He wouldn't get old. None of them would.”

So cute!

Ah they do say love is blind.

Aww thank you. Hee. Yay Ray.

“How can you miss three thousand reindeer?”

“Ray, don't exaggerate, it's only two thousand six hundred reindeer.

FRASER I LOVE YOU.

Fraser set off again, clearly following some invisible trail that only a Canadian in a plaid shirt could see.

*dies*

“Are you saying the elves ate Rudolph?” Ray accused.

“It's not impossible, Ray.”

Ray sighed. “Look, Rudolph was a magical reindeer. He wouldn't get old. None of them would.”

Ray has a valid point here.

“This particular individual is healthy.” Fraser placed the poop back on the ground. Dief whined and sniffed it.

“Oh good, I would hate to think it had chicken pox.”

Fraser frowned. “Reindeer don't get chicken pox.”

Did I mention that I LOVE FRASER?

“Or we can follow the reindeer back to its herd because you're not going to be able to fool it into thinking you're an available reindeer,” Ray pointed out. Fraser wasn't even an available human.

Hee!

Ray wondered how much a pre-built cabin would cost and if it would be feasible to ship one this far north.RAY I LOVE YOU, TOO ( ... )

Who could not love Fraser? ;-)

And Ray.

I'm so glad you enjoyed it. I was aiming for an actual episode feel so I;m glad I succeeded. :-)

Thsank you for reading.

Oh, I really like this.

Love the banter, particularly "the elves ate Rudolph", and this:

“What?” Ray couldn't make out what Fraser was pointing to.

“It's a footprint, this way.”

“One footprint, what is it, a one legged reindeer?”

Your whiney, tag-along Ray voice is spot-on. I can absolutely see him running along in Fraser's footsteps, bitching the whole way. I agree -- this reads just like an actual episode.
