-At the Guild Hall-

"And I have no other choice in the matter?"

"Nope."

"Not even if I agree to never make cheap comments about your daughter?"

"No this is way better."

"...I'd say I hate you Gildarts but let's be honest here; I'd do the same to you in this situation."

"I know you would Laxus, now put on the hat."

The Thunder God sighed and did as he was commanded. Fairy Tail was a guild of many traditions that were followed every year. Some were good, some were bad and some were downright weird as hell. One such tradition was to get a Santa in to the guild so that its members could wish for whatever presents they wanted. Usually Makarov enlisted the help of Fairy Tail's Ace, Gildarts Clive, so that he could find out what people wanted and then give them the presents, but this year the old man had decided that he really couldn't be bothered and so made a bet with Laxus as to who could drink more, Bacchus or Cana. Never one to be above a bit of cheating, Gildarts of course threatened the drunken mage with torture if he didn't take a dive, and so Laxus ended up being the Santa for the guild that year.

"There; everything's on now. Happy?"

Gildarts quickly took a picture of his scowling friend before laughing and shoving him into the tent. "Laxus?! What the hell...?"

"If you say a word to anyone Cana I shit you not you won't survive the hour." His scowl deepened. Cana was usually the elf for these occasions, but that didn't mean that she was in the loop. In fact the only people who knew of the switch were Gildarts and Laxus. "So what the hell do I usually do in this cluster fuck?"

"Erm...you basically just sit there, ask the people what they want for Christmas, nod, hug them and have your picture taken with them." Cana tried to keep the smile off her face. "Those pictures are going to be priceless..."

Laxus let out a low growl. "How long does this usually take?"

"I dunno. Usually depends on how long the line is and how long each person takes."

"Well how longs the line?"

She poked her head through the curtain. "...Pretty long yeah."

Santa decided that it was time to make a start on the eggnog. "Just...lets get this over with."

Cana motioned for the first person to come in, and Wendy skipped straight through and plonked herself down on Laxus' lap. "Hello Mr Santa sir!"

"Sup kid." He replied before receiving a death glare from Cana. He was going to have to be way more Christmassy if he was going to pull this one off. "I mean...ho ho ho! How are you today?"

"I'm great Mr Santa! How are you?" She said smiling.

"I feel like I've been sleighed! Ho ho ho...kill me." He looked down at her optimistic expression and sighed. "Tell me then Wen-...child. What do you want for Christmas?"

The girl thought about it for a moment. "Well I really want everyone to be happy...but then we all are happy here. I've never been so happy in my life! I don't need anything for Christmas Santa."
