Gaudy and nice! Julie and Evie have organized a nice and adorable get-together for friends and fellow stragglers, in the hope that human warmth makes everyone less likely to miss home this holiday season. The house is appropriately decorated, all guests have Santa hats and reindeer headbands to wear and receive a pair of fuzzy Holiday socks. All are welcomed with appropriate cheer!
FOOD/DRINKS Some of them have been magically enhanced by a magic-adept friend with one benevolent effect, no one is forced to do anything!
Hot chocolate (marshmallows optional)
Egg nog - Drink this and you will have the faint sound of sleigh bells following you around for five minutes
Roman Punch
Mulled wine - Will make a spiral of glowing stars appear all around you, they last for five minutes!
Cookies of all kinds - Some cookies make a holiday flower crown appear on your head. You only get one, and you can take it home!
Roasted chestnuts
Christmas Pudding - A red or green patronus-like spectral reindeer appears next to you and hangs out for a while! You can politely ask it to deliver a message to someone else.
