Dec 4.

Hey. This one'll be shorter. Like a lot shorter. Just kind of a ficlet I though up literally five minutes ago. Thought I'd put it up. Here ya go.

Enjoy!!

...

"What is this?"

Tao glanced up from his place under the pine. "Oh, hey Boss. It's a Christmas tree."

"Yes, I can see that. What is it doing... in my house?" Frankenstein's smile turned forced, and a menacing aura clouded around him.

Tao shuddered involuntarily, then tried his luck. "Uh, bringing Christmas cheer, and wishing a Happy New Year?" He grinned warily.

"It's dropping pine needles on my carpet, dirt on the floors, and sap everywhere else. Either it's going outside, or you are." The blonde man stalked out, halting any further conversation. Tao sighed.

So much for the Christmas spirit.

"And then you're cleaning up this mess." Came the call from the kitchen.

Dammit.

...

Eh. I'm not happy with this one but whatever. The next few will be short as well, just because I've had so little time over Thanksgiving weekend to do anything except eat (never said that was a bad thing) so I've fallen behind. Ideas are welcome! I'm running out!

Yours crazily,
