Turkey, stuffing, 'taters smashed and whole, cranberries, good beer... the works!

Okay, maybe the beer wasn't exactly traditional.

Whatever! It tasted great. He looked over the spread he'd put out over the couple of tables he'd put side-by-side to create a traditional long table, though this was was far more varied in places when it came to height and weight. Ah well. The white tablecloth hid it well enough, and he was only short a chair. Otherwise, he was free to begin welcoming his dinnermates.

Staring up to the moon, Nick smiled a bit. It was nice and bright, perfect for the occasion. Maybe it came with age, but celebrating the holidays was almost as fun as an adult as they were when he had been a kid.

He was standing in his room, fixing up the last bit of his costume; instead of being one of the five freaking billion vampires out on the lawn, he was going as a gentleman zombie, complete with a bite-riddled top hat and cane. Very sexy.

He adjusted his tie and prepared to go down to his guests when his vision suddenly exploded with white light. Whoa. The next sensation he was aware of was his knees hitting the floor with a rather sharp thud. Whoa, and now, ow. His vision cleared quickly, leaving him dizzy and a little sick.

...That wasn't good...

"Maybe I should toss that pumpkin booze out," he mused, "thought it tasted funny..." Right-o, first on the order then, as he got back up and headed down the stairs without much of a fuss.

"Helen, no." Now the first and second, respectively, most often used words that Nick used nowadays. In this instance, from the toddler chewing on a tablecloth edge. She turned around with wide eyes, surprised. She'd been caught!

He had to laugh at the expression and picked her up. "You know better, {princess}. Come on, let's go find Mommy." She babbled her agreement. Right then. Off they went, into the small crowd of people who'd arrived. The party was being held outside, so everything that needed to be off the ground were on big round tables, just out of reach from children and pets. The weather was fair, the grass was soft, and in an added bonus for Nick, Hades was nowhere in sight.

Hoo-shaw.
