I lost some tags! Sorry about that.

They didn't even have the fake ones?

[He offers her a hanger for her coat and such, so he can put it in the coat closet.]

You didn't get to make ornaments for a tree before?

[He has a lot of post it notes and different colors of pens to take notes with and some glue somewhere. If she's never made an ornament, she will tonight dammit.]

np!

[She takes a moment to think.]

There was a fake one in the recreation area. It only had lights though and those didn't work much. Someone also told me it got broken one year and that's why it looked weird.

[sociallychallenged]

Huh, well... Let's have you make an ornament tonight. I think I got everything for it. But first I'll make some hot chocolate or something.

['Cause it's fuckin' cold out during the winter here. He goes to the kitchen to take care of that. Meanwhile his dogs are all trying to sniff her hair at once.]

Is there anything special that you used to do on Christmas?

[sleepallthewayhome]

[She will walk over after giving the dogs more pats.]

Not really...

Just time of school, and we got presents. We played board games sometimes. But we did that when it wasn't Christmas too.

[sociallychallenged]

What were the board games you liked like?

[He generally wants to give her a good Christmas, but he doesn't know how good the ones she had before were. In the meantime he finds the hot chocolate mix and some marshmallows that are blessedly not as stale as he worried they'd be. A few of them have clumped into those super marshmallows though.]

Still edible. [He promises as he shows her a mutant.]

[sleepallthewayhome]

I think there was a really old one with snakes and ladders we played. And some other ones... It's hard to remember sometimes. It was a really long time ago.

[Or you know...about two years + the haze she's pushed over any part of her life when her family was alive and now hard to think about. She'll focus on the marshmallow instead.]

Marshmallows are always edible.
