ALEX: A part of childhood you'll always remember, it is the summer of the soul in December...
December's arrived, and with December comes the holiday season. And much as the world outside of it is a bustle (well, worlds, and if they're at the same time of the year, but let's not split hairs), so is the Inn.
There is a giant tree up in the main room. It was provided with lights, but the rest of the decorations are spread out on several tables. Alanna Graham seems to be spear-heading the effort to decorate the tree at this point. Or maybe her determined cheerfulness scared everyone else away.
Also in the main room, Johnny Coffin's made himself comfortable at the piano. The melody might sound familiar, but the words are a little different than usual. He's not the best of singers, or players for that matter, but it's all in the spirit.
If you follow your nose, you'll find those delicious scents are coming from the kitchen. Svetlana Sergievsky has a counter laid out with all the makings for cookies and a batch in the oven. Across the kitchen, Yelena's making tea. Mother and daughter are both mostly silent, but it's a content silence.
In a room off the main room that may or may not have existed until today, there's a large TV playing classic Christmas cartoons -- currently, How the Grinch Stole Christmas -- and several comfortable-looking sofas and chairs. Adam Johnson is stretched out across one of the sofas, and you might think he was asleep if it wasn't for the occasional glance over to his daughter and the quiet singing along. On the floor in front of the TV, Michael Johnson is bouncing his year-old niece on his lap and finding the movie far more interesting than she is, in that way nostalgic late-teenagers have.
And in the spirit of the season, there's mistletoe hung over all the doorways and in several spots on the ceiling. Some may say an excess of mistletoe. April Cohen is leaning against the wall next to a ladder, observing her handiwork. Not that it was all her. James Potter (junior) and Christopher Johnson can be found looking rather satisfied by the mistletoe, too. That may be because of a little extra something added to some of them.... But that's the risk you run when wizards help you decorate.
Enjoy the atmopshere.
[OOC: Tag any of the above, tag in any of the above rooms, tag in any room not mentioned, tag each other, tag one of mine not mentioned... Basically a Christmasy free-for-all for indoor!Inn fun. (I have no idea when Nina plans on doing the outdoor one, but that's going to need a post all its own. XD) Slowtime is not only fine but expected and appreciated, on my end. So go nuts, dears. <3
And for an added bit of crack: Some of the mistletoe is enchanted. Basically, you get frozen under it until you kiss someone. It can hold up to two people at once, if those two refuse to kiss each other. The piece over the door into the Inn (or where it is when it exists) is enchanted and the piece over the bottom landing of the stairs are enchanted, and otherwise, feel free to get them caught under it wherever. ^^]
