The obligatory Christmas special thing #2015
9 years ago
A short blog-story about a bit of myself who wants to post something special for Christmas. Or not. I didn't write it following a stream of thoughts. It was all planned. Maybe ? OR NOT.
****
The persistent silence, fixed mood of the Christmas time. I didn't see it coming this year. The other former years I was either bored or either annoyed by this holiday ; this year it just came, a day, without any signal, and I simply realized one morning "oh, yeah, it's Christmas Eve tonight". It has passed, I had ate well, I had hugged people around a red and golden table, repeating "Merry Christmas". I welcomed the few unpersonal gifts I had as if it was a joke, as if we were all playing at Christmas. We had no snow, apparently the same all over the world - wasn't cold outside, it was more like humid - as if Nature wasn't prepared for this either. Or global warming.
Now on this Christmas evening day I was staring at the red table cloth and the foot of my transparent glass.
There were people working today despite all of this. There had been little kiddy kids all excited about receiving their wonderful presents carefully wrapped in glossing paper, soon torn apart, with these Christmas lies about a man dressed in red. Families were gathering and were chatting or playing or still eating. It was a special day on the calendar. Everyone was making or had already made something special for today.
I tried to set up my mind and calm down. If I wanted to do something for Christmas, I should have done it yesterday... I was only a few hour left. I couldn't post something on the 26th, right ? It would be a mess. Christmas would be over. It would not be a Christmas-thing. Every other artist seemed to have prepared and finished everything just at the right time. Why I hadn't think about it before ?!
Okay. Okay. Shhh. You could draw something. Something Christmassy. Yes.
- "Christmessy" ?
I SAID "CHRISTMASSY". It's... Er... A neologism.
- Yeah, indeed.
And, Kouranos ? What a Dragon like you do here anyway ? People don't even know about your existence yet. Well, they read about you showing off with Hiver, but they don't know your name yet - but what the hell are you doing here ?
- I dunno. I'm here if I want. Why are you all depressed ? You are writing depressing stuff on a Xmas day. Wow. Besides, if you want to write, you have others things to write. Like, more important stories. Like, the ones I am starring in.
I wanted to defend myself, but Kouranos had barely finished his sentence when a blue gator rushed into the room.
- Hey ! I have priority !
Feraligatr ? You here too ?
- Yeah. I'm here since the beginning, man. *The gator throw a thumb over his shoulder* And this little Linoone over there is still unconscious. I thought it would have woken up more quickly...?
But I wanted to do something special for Christmas !
The dragon crossed his arms :
- "Something special", "Christmassy", what's the whole thing about this holiday ? It's not that bad if you don't do anything.
If I don't... I will feel... I will feel...
- ...Yeah ?
...I don't know. I will feel like "I hadn't done anything for Christmas". Everything is Christmas and I am not Christmas. Christmas will pass and I would have just stared blankly at Christmas and in three months I will regret Christmas. Christmas would be gone.
- Gone until next year !
Hm.
- Well, as far a my blue scales and my gator bulk are concerned, you could have put some Christmas things in my sequel, or give a Christmas hat to me, I dunno, but you could have written...
Okay, okay, I'm sorry Feraligatr, I assure you I'll work on your sequel story, but...
That's obviously when other stomps were heard, and came with an anthro-prehistoric pride into the room.
- Wait, what sequel ?
Terence ?
- Yeah, that's me. I heard about another chapter ?
*the gator cut him curt* - Yes, mine.
- Yours ? Haha ! I'm sorry but my story has already two chapters - and did I mentioned the two alternative chapters ? - it's obvious my story is more cared about than other ones.
- WHAT ?!
Terence, please, don't add fuel to the fire. Feraligatr...
*the blue gator, obviously vexed* - Oh, say what you want. I am obviously vexed.
*sigh* I was wondering about what to do for Christmas, and you all...
- We all remind you that we are here to support you, added Kouranos.
Really ?
- Yes, really. Supporting you for writing our sequels.
But... Christmas...
- What about a Christmas short story ? proposed Terence.
"Short story" ? But I have no time... I don't write as fast in English as in French.
- Well, I said, "short" story.
Then it would be really short. And a story about what anyway ?
- Farting Christmas tree ?
- Farting Christmas beast ?
- Farting something with the word "snow" in some description ?
- Indeed something "Christmessy", hehe.
*sigh* Must it be kinky ?
- Why not ?
Why not clean stuff ?
- It's not me who hadn't fapped for three days and who kept thinking about dirty stuff because of that.
HEY THAT'S NOT-...
- Hm-mh ? You were saying something ?
...Uh. Okay, you're right.
- I know.
...But...
- Look, continued the dragon. Either you draw something BUT NO DROP THAT PENCIL, seeing how little time you have, you'll never make it...
- ...Either you try to write a small story to make yourself feel better, remarked the anthro-rex. Even if it is short and done pretty quickly, you would have done something for Christmas and you could focus back on your projects tomorrow.
- Speaking about your projects, what about your third theater play ? asked the gator. Have you moved on since the last time ?
...No.
- Hm okay !
*takes his courage with both hands* Then, I will courageously write something. *opens a new Word document* Wait for me, Internet, I come !
- Oh, boy…
*gets ready to write, but suddenly stops* …This said, what the others have done for Christmas ?
- You mean you hadn’t see their submissions yet ?
No. I use to keep them in a corner for, you know… For the surprise. This night or the other.
- Hm mh.
- *whispers* Guys, if he look at them…
- *whispers* You mean, all that sexy Christmas stuff ?
*goes on FA* Well then, what the others have done ?
- Huh, wait a minute, do not lay-
[Three minutes later]
…
- …
- …
- …
…Jeez.
- Maybe « jizz » would be more appropriate ?
- I say, that was predictable.
- At least you won’t keep thinking about kinky stuff now.
…I suppose so… But… My Christmas submission…
- Next time !
- And anyway, seeing how much time we just spent talking, you’d have had a very few left.
- The bright side of this is that you can now directly carry on working what you have to work on !
- He’s right.
Yeah… Probably.
- Still a Merry Christmas ?
…Yeah…
- Come on ! exclaimed the gator. Cheers ! It’s still a nice day ! I suppose.
- He’s still right !
- Surprising coming from him, but yes !
…*smiles* Okay… ! Merry Christmas you all~
- Merry Christmas !
*smiles, and realizes something green hanging under the ceiling* …Who hung mistletoe right over us ?
- Wow really ?
- Mistletoe ? Is that mistletoe ?
- It’s really strange, for sure.
Guys, we don’t even have this tradition in France.
- Yes we have !
- He just checked on Wikipedia.
- I checked on Wikipedia for him !
…Seriously ? So why anyone hadn’t ever done it around me ?
- There’s a beginning to everything I suppose.
- Better late than never !
…I see.
- Hehe.
- Well then, I suppose we must all kiss each other !
Why didn’t I see this coming ?
- The truth is, we’re sure that you’re actually pleased that this happens.~
…Indeed. ~

Merry Christmas to you ! And you ! And you ! And to each one of you ! ^3^ May all the things you ever wanted be with you for cheering your mind up, tightning close your soul and heatening up your spirit ! Heatening it in any way you want :3

This story-ish thingy was good enough, I like it :) You too felt like this year's Christmas came exceptionally early? It's like a fold in time of some sort.

OP
Haha, thanks anyway ^w^ Yes, sort of exceptionally early as you say :o Plus the fact that I hadn't feel the "Christmas spirit", but this may just be me X)
