Seventeenth Stir || [Video]

[There are branches blocking the camera. Branches from a pine tree. Or at least they appear to be branches from a pine tree. It's a fake pine tree

Comments

[Video because he's pouty and doesn't want to leave his room.]

[brb_pigfarts]

You got a Christmas tree.

[A sullen stare. Draco is up in his room, leaning up against the headboard, just... trying to process this.]

[Video]

[snarkypotions]

Yes, and some ornaments.

[Some of which were carefully transfigured to look like the ones Lucius and Narcissa would put up.]

You've probably already celebrated it, but...

[He trails off with a shrug. Christmas is always nice to celebrate with someone you care about, and Snape finally has two people here that he does care for.

And as an added bonus, there's no mad aunt or Dark Lord to ruin this Christmas!]

[Video]

[brb_pigfarts]

Yes. Four months ago.

[This totally doesn't mean he's forgiven him for the incident the past few days. Draco has barely even stepped out into the main house since the incident with Lily. His arrivals and departures were generally accompanied by the crack of Apparation to and from his room.

Needless to say, he was still pissed.]

It was bad enough then.

[Video]

[snarkypotions]

[And each crack had been followed by a sigh from Snape.]

So let me try to make it slightly better.

[James has been in a terribly depressed mood since... well, that, but Harry showing up has brightened his spirits immensely. So guess what, Snape? James is totally going to piss you off every single opportunity he gets.

Because maturity is for losers. Obviously.]

The scrooge celebrates Christmas?

[Video]

[snarkypotions]

[Smirk. Because you actually set yourself up for this one James.]

When he has someone to celebrate it with.

[Video]

[chaserprongs]

[Oh, he knew that was coming, so have a dismissive wave.]

It must be an odd sensation for you. ['You disgusting git.'] I have a full house, myself. [You know. With his son. From the future. With Lily.] I take it you took in the other one with the attitude problem?

[Video]

[snarkypotions]

[You mean the son who named your grandson after this 'disgusting git'?]

It is, but it's a pleasant one. And it's not about the quantity, but the quality.

[He's the type who wanted to stay at Hogwarts over the breaks because his house was horrible over the holidays. Alcohol and all that. Yet he went back every year, because he didn't wish to leave his mother alone with that monster.]

And yes, I did.

[He happens to be his godson, but he's not about to tell you that when it might mean you'll just pick on him more >|]

[Video || Private || Unhackable]

[snarkypotions]

Yes. He got Draco to help me put up the ornaments.

[There's a small pause.]

Shall I bring the tree over later?

[Draco threatened to remain in his room until Christmas if she came over. And Snape doesn't want to push it right now.]

[snarkypotions]

Thank you.

[He smirks slightly though.]

But as Christmas draws near, I imagine you'll be baking cookies again?

[And it's totally not his fault if she just appears on his doorstep without warning and Draco's the one who opens the door, right?]

[huntressrip]

It iz vonderful to zee others get into zhe holiday spirit~! But.. by are zhere two? I do not know of any tradition zhat requires two Christmas trees.

[snarkypotions]

Why can't there be two?

[huntressrip]

[Rip actually pauses to think about that for a moment.]

You know, I zuppose zhere can be two but it does not make much sense to me to haf two in zhe same house.

[snarkypotions]

[There's a pause as he levitates an ornament onto the tree, watching as Erebus tried jumping after it.]

They won't be in the same house.
