[If you stop posting i will leave your ass behind. Do not join if you're super busy right now. The exception will be in the unfortunate possibility this bleeds over into Christmas territory in which case I will probably slow down a great deal myself. But we have two weeks so let's try not to take that long, okay?]

December 24th. 2006... America...
Jameson sat at a bed as the window drew in the waning light of early evening. He bound his fingers tightly into his pants at he stared at his brother laying in the bed unconscious.

"Tcheh.. They didn't even visit.." He said choking up.. "Those worthless people.. we call parents.." He said looking down as tears brimmed in his eyes.. He rose to his feet placing his hand on the boy's head.."But we'll.. always have each other.." Jameson said with a smile. "I'm leaving you.. but eventually I'll save up enough money.. to bring you with me.. To get you better doctors... I'll do it.. .We'll always be at each other's side.. And.. I'll visit... for all the holidays they forget.. I'll remember them and visit.."

~~~~~~
1 Week Earlier..
~~~~~~

"you're sure you don't mind..?"

"Heh! I'm happy for you.." Jameson said planting his hands in his side.

"... I hate that I can't read your mind... Are you really?"

"What big brother would begrudge his little brother for going home for Christmas?"

"... Yeah but I know you still have some issues with them..."

"Hahah! no worries, no worries! They're your parents!"

"They're yours too!.. You should go too.."

"I didn't get an invite.." Jameson said coldly..

"Jameson! You know the-"

"Go on. I'm fine.." Jameson said firmly. "I have a family. A family that I care about right here... And at the same time I know you still want to connect with them. And they have been kind to you since you've woken up.. I know. It's all okay. I'm not upset.."

~~~~~~
Many of the WDA members had families of their own and would be leaving for Christmas. As such Jameson had decided to have the Christmas party two weeks early. . The news had been sent via text, fax, e-mail, phone call, and psychic message to all members that it was time for CHRISTMAS CHEER. Jameson planted his hands in his sides smiling broadly at the WDA: CHRISTMAS VERSION!

A large overly decorated tree, socks hung from the wall for each member. a stack of boxes under the tree. Lights strewn all over. Even outside the entire building was covered in lights. CITY ORDINANCES BE DAMNED. The rooftop had a touching nativity of baby Santa Christ being born from Mary the shepherd herder in the spartan war. Many neighbors had asked him about it. It was sad how modern times were loosing the meaning behind Christmas.

A celebration of Santa Christ's rebellion against Rome and eventual overthrow leading to the rise of the Holy Roman Empire which ended in him giving gifts to all the good children and sending the bad ones to burn in hell..

Jameson flashed a thumbs up to the Santa he had stripped of his red robes and changed into a more traditional white robe.

Either way Jameson was in HOLIDAY SPIRIT 100%. in his christmas fedora. He'd even gotten Oliver and Chetri down to help with setting things up.. Meanwhile he'd prepared the meal himself... THIS WAS GOING TO BE THE BEST CHRISTMAS EVER!

He flinched a bit eying a picture of himself and Beaumont.. He walked over to it picking it up and putting it away in the drawer. "Ossu~! They should arrive soon!"

"The lights have been placed outside as you requested." Chetri said as she walked back in.

Jameson had a bad knee afterall, so who else could have put them all over the building? She had objected at first, noting the possible fire hazard, but Jameson had overruled her on that, and so she carried it out, properly, if only because he'd told her to. She was also the most experienced in getting around the outsides of large buildings, in anycase. It was a rather unusual way to make use of her abilities as an assassin, but she was surprisingly well suited for it. It was almost like spiking a building with microphones and cameras, only somewhat more unwieldy.

The display that greeted inside was... unusual, to say the least. She wasn't a Christian herself, but she knew enough of the mythos to understand something was... off. Or rather, that everything was.

"You're certain these are the correct decorations?" she had to ask him.

"Tcheh, so she has a use afterall.." Oliver said with a frown, wearing antlers and a rudolph nose as well as a full reindeer costume. "Besides cooling the room with that ice bitch routine." Oliver said with a sneer. He hated her more than anyone he'd ever met. That annoyingly placid tone. That blank expression. She was the epitome of everything he hated in women of that sort.

Jameson smacked him on the head putting on his santa coat. "I'm sure everything is right Chetri.. To be honest I haven't celebrated Christmas since I was ten though.. After that I moved away and the holidays became somewhat of a sore spot. Not only that but it was before i developed my perfect memory from my mental trauma.. but even so i'm sure. I remember clearly.. Santa.. sleigh... then suddenly the spartan war.. and Santa became muscular and had a black beard all of the sudden.."

~~~~
December 24th, 2000

"WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU TAPED OVER MY 'SANTA SAVES CHRISTMAS' WITH A DOCUMENTARY ON THE SPARTAN WAR?!" Mamma Willicott roared belligerently.

~~~~

"Anyhow.. My family was never religious but I know the savior was born on Christmas and Santa Christ was the savior so.. one plus one equals A-DUH~" He said matter-of-factly.

"PFFFTT." Oliver said looking away. "w-Well you're mostly right. You missed the p-part on.. S-Santa..C-Christ's eight battle reindeer but it's close enough.. I had to fill in a few details here and there."

"Man, Christmas is BADASS. I never knew what I was missing.."

"I see."

She was fairly sure that wasn't what Christmas was about really. Even as an assassin, she wasn't entirely sheltered. She'd been taught enough to be able to skirt around and so not be painfully obvious, and this definitely was not it. However, it was also a religious celebration, religion was a personal thing, and people celebrated it in their own way. There wasn't any real harm was there?

Probably not.

"Then, is there anything else you require of me?"

"HOHOHO!!! Merry Christmas!!"

Well. Isn't he in a cheerful mood.

That's not the point. Christmas is still a week away.

"Oh, come on, V! Where's your Christmas spirit?"


I don't have one because I'm a damn virus, you idiot!

Hide it all you want, but your true feelings cannot escape me. I am pleased to announce that V here is actually very excited in the upcoming festival celebrated by humans called 'Christmas'. He's not particularly sure about the history of the festival itself (and apparently neither does Seth), but one thing's for sure, he's looking forward to it as much as the next guy.

Seth had came to the not-so-dingy-for-once office in his usual black sweater. Although, this time he cared to don a red coat over himself just for the sake of it. He had also decided to wear Santa's red hat. And to complete the look, he had a fake bushy white beard glued on his face.

He was having trouble getting it off.

"Jameson~ Anything I can help with?"
He said, looking around for something to do until he spotted Oliver.

In a reindeer suit.

During the first few second he only stared at him. The next moment, however, he snorted out loud, clasping his mouth hard to keep himself from bursting out laughing.

Perhaps he didn't realize he himself looked ridiculous with that beard.

"Pfffttt...! Sorry... sorry, Oliver! I just... Ahaha!"
He couldn't help himself. The effect of Red-Nose Rudolph costume on the Lone Wolf Oliver was certainly something to behold. "Okay, okay I'll stop now..." And he did, wrenching his eyes away from Red-Nose Oliver and scanned around for something else to distract him. And he did found one. Rather, someone he had never met before. As he did with Oliver, he stared at her for a few seconds. But unlike with Oliver, he did not laugh. Rather... "Uh... well... Hello there...! Uhm.... I'm Seth. What's your name?"

He found her emotionless feature quite intimidating. It was a different type of intimidation than he would find on Aki, though. She's just brutally intimidating.

"Heeeeh....? Only this many.." Jameson said with a pout.. He'd expected at least double this! Someone with Aki's personality couldn't have made friends this fast! And Robyn surely had no place to be! He was gonna assign them so some really TERRIBLE cases for revenge!!

"Tch. Good. Maybe there will be some food left after the damn moochers clear out.." Oliver said planting his hands on his sides. Where were these assholes? Jameson had gone through all this trouble and only half showed up.. Tcheh... Annoying! Even if he found them all to be a bit frustrating he at least expected better than this from them...

"Well at least Seth showed up." Jameson said sitting in a corner with a dark aura around him.. He turned looking to Chetri with his lip poked out and tears in his eyes. "Y-you want to s-spend Christmas with me right?! I at least have you, right?!" He said pleadingly throwing on his best sad face.

Oliver sighed face palming. What was with this ridiculous pouting. You'd think he was loosing his family or something.. He glanced to the wall noting the missing pictures of Monty.. Well it might be possible he was feeling a bit abandoned.. Oliver sighed before planting his hands in sides. "I'm sure at least a few more will show.. sheesh give them some time you big baby!"

"Merry futz'n Christmas you bunch of sleezy, two-timing, bug-eyed barbaras!" A voice called from the suddenly wide open doorway. Standing in the doorway with a candy cane striped cigarette hanging limply from her mouth was the always uniformed and uni-named Aki. Though it didn't look like she'd dressed up for occasion any more than usual, the spirit of the holidays was definitely with her. Moreover she appeared to have a shoddy looking satchel slung casually over her shoulder making her look more prepared for the St. Nick's Day Massacre than Christmas itself. "I got a fistful of cigars, half a dozen bottles of scotch brown and not a friend in the world besides you handsome cake-eaters so I hope you planned on having an interesting evening."

Partying out was always fun. But partying in, especially with people you like, was in a whole different league. Aki was pretty confident her party favors wouldn't go waste on this bunch. They might no be the biggest party people she'd ever met in her life (far from it in fact) but they were still exciting, funny and generally knew how to warm a foreign girls in a strange new land's heart. Striding in like she owned the place, Aki swung the bag back over her shoulder and onto Oliver's desk, a dull and heavy thud marking its impact. It probably wouldn't leave a dent anyway. "Sorry I'm late, hard to find a taxi or a train that'll let you take a bag bigger than the passenger so I ended up hoofing it over, but it'll be worth it! Trust me!"

With that she began unloading bottle after bottle of brown, unmarked bottles of alcohol, slowly stacking into a substantial pyramid. "By the way detective, pretty sweet decor, I didn't peg you as the type but it's nice to see someone else in the spirit of the season besides me." Aki smiled brightly in his direction, her cheeks looking slightly flushed as she did. She was already drunk.

"I will remain here if required." was all she said.

Chetri didn't have a chance to answer Seth's question before Jameson interrupted it with his bawling, which took priority. It was just as well in anycase, as she wasn't entirely certain how to answer it either. There was no real helping it with the she way she'd met Aki, but she wasn't sure how to deal with Seth, or for that matter, anyone else, considering Jameson hadn't really provided much in the way of instruction on how he wanted her to introduce herself. It was probably something best left to Jameson, assuming he ever got around to it.

For now though, she merely stood there passively, right hand clasped against her left elbow, waiting for instructions on what she should be doing next. Unlike everyone else who was dressed festively, her attire was decidedly on the less than fashionable side of practical. A black turtleneck sweater, and the sort of fingerless padded leather gloves used in shooting sports, coupled with tight black trousers and combat boots.

He would have felt very awkward when the emotionless girl didn't answer to him. That is, if Aki didn't decide to suddenly barge in, talking loudly with the fancily decorated cigarette in her mouth and flinging around a large bag full of something heavy. He would have felt sorry for Jameson's lonely figure too, if it wasn't for the fact that he's curious as to what the newcomer had decided to bring.

Which...

With each heavy clunk as she placed the content of the bag on the table...

Made his eyes grew wider and wider.

"Urh... Aki... that, wouldn't be..."


He edged slowly to the table, gingerly picking up one of the unlabeled bottle for inspection. For some reason, he kinda recognized the content. "Wh- Hey! Isn't this alcohol?!" He blurted out, only to suddenly take a whiff of some strong smelling stuff from her mouth. "Wait... you hadn't been drinking, have you?" Apparently, she did. ... HEY. "Hold on! Are you even allowed to drink?!"

Like you hadn't been drinking before.

"H-hey! I didn't know what it was at that time!"

Jameson watched in shock as Aki entered the room. He leaped to his feet catching Aki and Chetri in a hug with a broad smile. "I know you two wouldn't fail me! you two are the best!" He turned and leaped away, prancing around eagerly. NOW IT WAS FINALLY A PARTY! HALF THE WDA HAD SHOWED UP!! "OLIVER, INSPECT THE GIFT!"

Still.. where was Crow? Was he not back from America yet?!

Oliver popped the top taking a swig. "It's poison captain." He tossed the bottle to Jameson.

Jameson took a drink. "Gragh! It is! A mutinous wench has tried to kill us." He tossed the bottle back to Oliver before planting his hands in his sides with a broad grin as he looked towards Aki "Thanks for the gift and the food! You might be my new favorite.." He glanced to Seth. "None for you though. I heard about the ruckus you caused in the bar!" Jameson said wagging a finger.

Oliver snorted to himslef before turning to Aki. "Thank god a decent woman has arrived. I though i'd had to resort to hitting on Chetri when I was too drunk to care" He said sarcastically. He glanced to Seth and elbowed him. "Maybe your girlfriend Robyn will show up too, eh?" He said teasingly. Having had 'deduced' it was Robyn based on chest size.

"Ah.. Seth.. This is Chetri. She's a new member of the agency I hired.." He said flashing a grin. He turned to Chetri. "Ahh... Orders? It's a party... So.. I guess the order is to enjoy the party casually.. If i need anything I'll let you know.."

"Tcheh.." Oliver snorted. The girl can't even enjoy a party? She was more like a robot than a person. A dog at best. Of all of Jameson's hires she was the worst. She was annoying and cold and creepy...

Aki happily embraced her boss, giving him a buzzed bear hug that nearly lifted him off the ground. Of course she probably would have lifted him off the ground, but she felt like she had to be gentle with the poor guy. He looked pretty fragile sometimes. That's just what made him so cool though! A detective with an eyepatch, it was just futz'n genius. "God you're just so cool!" Aki cried out in surprise, running an astounded hand through her hair. She just didn't know how he did it, but he was damn good at it! Looking over at Seth she grinned and waved him off with a an arrogant hand. "Pfft, of course it's alcohol, I only had a little and hell no we can't have any but we're gonna have some anyway. James--pfft, I mean detective, boss you tell him. Tell him, tell him, tell him... we're going to have it anyway, right?"

Despite the small cache of contraband potables, there still appeared to be a number of other objects weighing the bag down and Aki dug her hand in as Oliver addressed her. Er, talked about her. "Olly baby, Imma let that slide because it's Christmas and you're cute. You only get five of those though and then I gotta punch you the sternum, got it?" She held up a fist with a huge grin before devolving into a snorting fit. After a brief moment of holding her sides she straightened herself up and looked around. "Yeah, where the hell is that girl anyway? I can't be the only one around you guys, that's not fair to me or to anyone else like you guys, right? Plus I got her something too and I can't let it go to waste. Oh yeah!" Aki went back to digging in the back, rummaging through what sounded like boxes and more bags.

"I mean I guess I could always give it to Chetertry but I think it's probably too big to fit her. In some places anyway." Giving up for her now she took her hand out of the bag and stretched her palm, evidently have tired it out from excess rummaging. "So alright alright, who's going to start us off? This pile of booze is easily enough to last us the night and I've kinda already started so someone else has to take the first drink." Aki looked over at Seth and smirked. She sort of wanted him to go first, but after what happened last time she couldn't be sure how much he could take. This was pretty strong stuff, she should have thought to brought him some beer or something. Or a wine cooler. Or near beer...

or water...

And it seemed Aki would be disappointed, considering how Oliver and Jameson decided to start it own their own accord. Chetri was fairly sure the legal drinking age in Japan was 21, which about noone in the room was, but the legality of the moment didn't particularly concern her. When you killed people to stay alive, there was generally little moral or legal high ground to stand on, and she didn't care in anycase.

Rather than actually greeting Seth, she simply gave him a nod as Jameson introduced her. It was the sort that felt like it must have been calculated on a slide rule. It suggested that she acknowledged his presence as an associate, and that he was was her senior but nevertheless a civilian, then subtract five degrees for the fact he wasn't her handler.

Very efficient, but in it's own way creepy. Normal people didn't calculate their greetings like that. Well, not anymore at least. She gave another nod to Jameson as he told her to merely enjoy herself.

"As you wish." she responded, and then quietly turned around and silently walked a way, disappearing deeper into the building for about a minute, before coming back with a tray containing some glasses filled with ice.

The glasses clanked as she set them on the table next to the alcohol, and it was about the only noise she made. The rest of her motions, footsteps and all, were about as quiet as a ghost.

"Oliver! Sheesh...!" He pouted, glaring at him with a slight annoyance, and a slightly red cheek. Ever since that shopping trip he's been taking the mickey out of him non-stop, pairing him with everyone (luckily not with Jameson) he knows. Today it's with Robyn.

It's kinda lucky that Jameson decided to change the topic a bit by introducing the quiet girl who's known as Chetri who gave a slight nod to him as acknowledgment. Not that Seth minded much. It's more important that he's the one who greeted her. "Ah, nice to meet you, Chetri," He said, giving a significantly deeper bow than she did and flashing a smile. If she's that polite, then she can't be too bad.

I'm kinda curious as to your definition of 'polite'.

Shut it. I'm telling a story here. Seth watched her go to the kitchen for something, before sighting something that spelled trouble. Aki looking at him with a devilish smirk on her face. "W-what is it?" He said, his voice trembling a slight bit, darting his eyes on the bottles of... something on the table. "Sorry, but I'm not inclined to have any of those," He said, lifting his hands up in front of him as a defensive reflex.

Neither do I. I've had enough trouble with the drunken you. V commented, reminiscing the club fiasco.

Jameson grinned broadly. "First off, thanks for coming you guys!" He said walking to the counter. "Secondly... Before we get to the portion of this evening where we eat of give out gifts I'd like to propose a toast!" He turned walking to the table Chetri had set the drinks on before flashing her a smile. "You don't always have to work so hard, you know? It's okay to just enjoy yourself.." He rose up with his glass, pouring a drink.

He coughed awkwardly, trying to figure out exactly what to say.. Ah hell he'd just wing it."The WDA has only been around a short time.. But during that time I've made a lot of life long friends.. And I hope that we can all be here together again next year.. just like this. With even more friends.. With people whom matter to us... People we love and people we want to stay with.. And I'll make sure... always.. to protect you guys and keep you all here. Because it's not right when you guys aren't around. This office is lonely without a lot of annoying kids to keep me busy." He said laughing.

He sighed rubbing his neck. "Basically I'm saying... I.. uh.. I love you guys. You're like my family. So.. cheers. To family!" He said raising his glass before knocking it back and exhaling. So embarrassing... His cheeks were burning.

~~~

"Tch.." What a cheesy guy.. Oliver poured a glass, raising it at the toast. He kicked it back and looked around.. He supposed... it wasn't BAD like this. Seth was actually alright, and he didn't hate Aki either. Even if he was mostly concerned with Quinn and Jameson in his day-to-day he did feel like his sphere had expanded over these past few months.. So much had changed since the Christmas before.. Sitting in a barracks ready to perform a mission..

Ready to take a life..

Now here he was. It all felt a little absurd. Before this one every Christmas felt the same. Alone, quiet, isolated. His mom always in the hospital and with no money there was never a present. The year before he'd suddenly been drug from that into a world of fighting.. and a year later he was suddenly told he was in a family? It all felt a little... strange.

Even so it wasn't a bad feeling... And no matter how cool or distant his thoughts they didn't change the small smile on his face.

'To family..'

Its bedtime! Bed=Ethnic Time=Cleansing
" You smug son of a b*tch!" A voice yelled out from the front door of the WDA offices. Crow grunted as he kicked the front door to the office in, almost kicking it off the hinges. He quickly stormed into the office, throwing down his duffle bag as he raced towards Jameson. His eyes filled with rage and aggression. As he reached the man he grabbed him by the collar, slamming him into the wall.

" How in the hell could you send me to that psycho?! Do you know how mad he is?! And that f*cking room drove me crazy! I have lost all sense of time! I feel like I'm years older then I should be! Jameson you bastard!" Crow yelled as he let out a sigh as he let the man go. To be honest he wasn't too mad at Jameson, maybe he was just happy to see the man after what felt like to him months, and years.

" Huh?" Crow said as he looked around at everyone, blinking. His eyebrows raised as he looked around at the room, wait was today the party?! Was it christmas already?! Crap he forgot to see Selene when he got back and give her the present he got for her while he was in america. " Wait its christmas already?! Crap I really have lost all sense of time!" Crow yelled as he ran back and forth in place with a worried look plastered on his face. He had no idea that it was not yet christmas, that's what being in a time controlled room will do to you.
