This sounds cool! Not sure how it rlly works but...

I walk into a rather grand room with a giant fir tree decorated with ornaments and tinsel in the corner. The scent of gingerbread candles wafts my way. It is rather empty at the moment, unfortunately. I decide to sit on a nearby chair and wait to see if others will arrive. 

I look around and see that Celine has arrived. When, I have no idea. Not that it really matters. The sound of the fireplace crackles merrily.

"Hi Celine!" I greet her. "Ready for the holidays?"  

It's been a while since I've stepped foot in the Holiday House. I don't quite know how I found this place again… Perhaps it found me.

Well, good timing. The holidays have arrived, and these presents are heavy. 

Inside, Celine and Moon Wolf have already arrived. 

"Celine! Moon Wolf! Hello!" I wave at them. The room is warm - a fire crackles in the fireplace - and the snow is already melting on my clothes. I remove my jacket and scarf, hanging them by the door, and put my ear muffs around my neck. "Do you two mind helping me with these gifts?" 

Celine tells me that what she really wants the most is time. Time to do reading, writing, all that's wanted and all that's needed. I find myself agreeing with her. Time...there's not enough of it. She then asks for me to open my present, but as I'm about to reply, I see Peri enter the house carrying a hefty stack of presents.

"Celine! Moon Wolf! Hello!" She waves at us. I wave back. "Do you two mind helping me with these gifts?"

"Not at all!" I reply. I hurry over and take one of the presents from the stack. "Where do you want it?" 

I step into the Holiday House, and the atmosphere of warmness from the fire tinted with the scent of peppermint is familiar. I haven't been here in nearly three years, when I had been gifted three perfect little dragons- Moss, Scarlett, and Galaxy. Inside is Celine, Moon Wolf, and Periwinkle, all laughing and arranging gifts by the fire. I'm carrying mine- a tin container wrapped in newspaper- with both gloved hands.

"Hi guys!" I say, walking forward and letting the door shut behind me. "What's up?" 

It's been a long schoolday, so I decide to take a walk. I leave my AEs back at our apartment, and begin to roam the streets of our cold, bustling city.

The smell of warm, toasted bread taunts me, and my stomach growls--but I continue walking. Perhaps it's best just to walk today.

Next, I smell a rich, chocolatey scent--but continue walking.

Finally, after about two more blocks of walking through the crowded, snowy, and bright streets--I give in to my desire for something warm and pleasing. Today has been stressful.

I turn to my left, spotting a large cabin. How odd...A cabin in the city. The cabin has a sign next to it, which states that it is The Holiday House. I peek through the windows, and a couple girls (or demigirls, whichever they choose to identify as). To my surprise, the girls inside aren't just any girls, but are actually part of the CB--Moon Wolf, Celine, and Periwinkle!

This is just what I needed! I think, as I step into the house. A friendly, coddling environment with a few friends...How soothing...

"Hello!" I say, my form shifting from a tall, dark-skinned girl with antlers to a (slightly shorter than average) girl with heterochromic (blue and brown) eyes, blonde/blue hair, cat ears and tail, and glasses. (Sorry! This was mainly me deciding on Parody's form...a bit too detailed...) "Hi, Celine, Peri, and Moon Wolf!" 

"Not at all!" Moon Wolf takes a present from the stack. "Where do you want it?"

"Hmm… Just over there is fine!" I gesture towards the tree. "Anywhere under the tree. Thanks!"

Eventually, we manage to get the gifts arranged under the tree and by the fire. Silver Crystal arrives and smiles. 

"Hi guys! What's up?" 

Parody arrives just after her. "Hello!" 

"Hey!" I wave. "Good to see you two! There's presents I got for you under the tree here somewhere…" I look around. 

Peri tells me to put it anywhere under the tree, so I walk over to the decked out Christmas tree and set the present down underneath it. We also arrange the rest of the gifts.

Silver Crystal arrives and greets us. "Hi guys! What's up?"

Directly after her, Parody arrives. "Hello! Hi, Celine, Peri, and Moon Wolf!"

I wave at them and say, "Nice to see you! More the merrier."

Peri greets them as well, before looking for the presents she got for them.

I guess I should get out more presents for everyone here, I think to myself. I quickly get some more, all in colorful, wintery colors, and put them down by the Christmas tree with their respective labels.

"Should we get our presents now, or should we wait for more people?" I ask.
