[Open RP] CHRISTMAS!

[tomatohacker.livejournal.com]

It's the first day of the Christmas season! (no matter what those damned retail stores say)

Ed rigged up decorations (mainly from pilfering knickknacks from various rooms) and lights (candles) and began to decorate a coat rack for a tree. It was way too cold to get a real tree, and it never occured to Ed to use magic.

Anyway, it will be the prettiest fucked up tree EVER!

Oh, and for the record: one of the things she nicked was a dreidal.

[Feel free to decorate, yell at Ed for nicking something she wasn't supposed to, whatever.]

Homsar had once submitted a spoon taped to an eggplant to a pumpkin-carving contest. (http://www.hrwiki.org/index.php/Pumpkin_Carve-nival#Easter_Eggs) A coatrack with random crap on it as a Christmas tree was therefore quite normal to him.

He blibbled in, viewed the rack appraisingly, and, just as at the pumpkin-carving contest, announced,"DaaaAAAAaaaAAAAaaaAAAA! I'm the ghost of Christmas pay-uuuuust!"

Ed grinned, a rather long scarf draped around her head and neck, holding a pipe and a drumstick.
Ed is Ed! Ed is decorating for Christmas, Ghost-person!"

"DaaaAAAAaaaAAAAaaaAAAA! 'Tis the season to be Bengali!" Homsar replied cheerily and blibbled towards the coatrack to take a closer look. He was totally up for decorating for Christmas.

The coatrack was looking awfully bare, and so after a moment of pensiveness, his yellow bowler hat lifted high up into the air, revealing a chain of marshmallows strung together much in the way one might string up popcorn or cranberries. Had these marshmallows once been a part of Homsar? He did not say, but merely used his lack of visible arms (http://www.hrwiki.org/index.php/Lack_of_Visible_Arms) to move the marshmallow chain from the top of his head to a hook on the coatrack. His hat settled back down onto his head.

"That's just the way it is," he commented in an approving sort of tone, to the extent that his loud, muppety voice took on any particular tone at all aside from loud and just plain weird.

Ed clapped her hands in delight. "It's perfect, Ghost-person!" And she added a top hat, in lieu of the star. "Now it's Christmasy!" Curiosity overcame her and she began to poke the marshmallow garland.

Homsar was all about hats, and the movement of his own hat in a jolly 360 showed this.

But there was one thing that was still needed to complete the coatrack. No sooner had his hat settled back down onto his head than it leapt back up in the air, revealing a single Jenga block. For what was Christmas without a little Jenga?

Once again, using his lack of visible arms, Homsar moved the block from his head (his hat dropped down once more) to a free hook of the coatrack. The block settled into the nook with a cheery thunk.

"DaaaAAAAaaaAAAAaaaAAAA! I'm the jingle bell rock!" he declared.

For all Ed knew, Homsar was moving things with his mind.

"Ed wants to move things with her mind too!" But despite all her concentration, that Jenga block refused to move.

"A mind is a terrible thing to baste," Homsar replied. Besides, Jenga was definitely a game to be played with one's hands. Visible or not.

Speaking of minds, Ed used hers and began to dig around in the pile of clutter for a red nose and reindeer antlers.

"Ed can be a reindeer and help Ghost-person!" Ed grinned up at Homsar, ready to help out.
