"Santa?"

"Santa?"

"Are you with us?" The voice of Mother Nature pulls Santa back to reality, "I'm sorry, yes. Yes, I am." He coughed, sitting up in the seat.

"Well, on behalf of Father Time and the Council of Legendary Figures, I'd like to thank you for being such a gracious host." Mother Nature smiles, and the other Legendary Figures nod their heads.

"Hear, hear."

"What a lovely place."

"Without further ado, let us convene the year-end conference. Tooth Fairy." The beautiful woman addresses.

"Thank you, Mother Nature. Fellow members, I'd like to again propose a new name for myself." Tooth Fairy stood up on his feet and adjusted his jacket.

"Oh, please!" Mother Nature rolled her eyes.

"Good heavens!" Father Time shook his head in disapproval.

"In the past, you have rejected Tooth Man, Tooth Guy, and Tooth-"

"Because they stunk." Sitting across from Tooth Fairy, the Easter Bunny remarks, twitching his nose.

"Today, I'd like to submit... Captain Floss-"

"Nice!" Santa smirked.

"-Plaque Man. And Roy."

"Roy! No." Cupid groans as he floats in the air, "No kid's gonna put a tooth under a pillow for a man named Roy."

"This from someone in a diaper who shoots people's butts!" Tooth Fairy retorted back.

Santa waves his hand, catching the Legendary Figures' attention, "Wait a minute. I got it. I got it. I got it. Now, how about this? The Molarnator." He suggested with a grin.

"The Molarnator! I like it. Thank you, Santa. Can we vote now on the Molarnator?" Tooth Fairy asks, turning to Mother Nature and Father Time.

Mother Nature sighs, "All in of a name change for Tooth Fairy?" Tooth Fairy, Santa, and Father Time raised their hands up, agreeing with the new name. "All right. And all opposed? Easter Bunny? Sandman?" Mother Nature turns to see Sandman sleeping at the desk.

"Wha-...? What happened? Was I asleep again?" Sandman jerks up at the mention of his name.

"Name change for the Tooth Fairy. Yes or no?" Mother Nature sighed and crossed her arms.

"No. I'm sorry." Sandman shakes his head at Tooth Fairy, causing him to pout.

Mother Nature faces Santa with a smile, "All right. Next item on the agenda. Santa? Status report."

"Okay. First, welcome to the North Pole. Great to have you here; this is our big time of year, so things are busy as usual. There's a little speed bump in the road this year. You all know Charlie." Santa started.

"I love Charlie! Great kid. Good boy. Sweet kid. Good teeth." They spoke over each other in happy tones.

"Well, Charlie... got himself on the Naughty list." Santa dropped the news.

"What?!"

"Oh, my!"

"I'm struggling with the timing cos it's... I gotta be up here, and I've also got to take care of Charlie..."

"That's every parent's dilemma: how to balance work and children." Cupid points out.

"Most people lose sleep over that," Sandman mutters.

"Tell me about it! I have 33,000 offspring—all in private school." Easter Bunny added.

"Well, to top it off... I have to get married by Christmas Eve." Santa explained.
