Used to be, in ye olden days, every December, a Lord of Misrule presided over the winter holidays, called back then, the Feast of Fools.

"Thank you for picking us up," TJ says as he steps off Sweet Pea's motorcycle as Eden stepped off Fangs'. "Always," Sweet Pea said and TJ heard Eden mumble something to Fangs, but couldn't hear what. "So what exactly is all this?" Eden asks walking in the Whyte Wyrm seeing everything going on. "It's Serpent tradition, every year we give back to the Southside," Sweet Pea says sitting across the pool table. "Toys for Tots, Meals on Wheels, kids and old folks living alone," Toni says walking up to us and giving TJ and Eden a hug. "The Hells Angels do it," Fangs add. "That's incredible," Eden says and TJ just sighs in relief. "So, technically, I didn't lie to my mom," he says to himself and all of them laugh. "Well, before we get to work, I hope it's not to early to say merry Christmas," TJ says grabbing four gifts out of his bag.

So Christmas was happening, even though this year's Lord of Misrule was none other than the Black Hood.

"I don't know any of you that good, besides Eden, but I shopped based off the few weeks we hung out together," he said giving each their gift and they thank him.

"You can open it already if you want, I don't really car-" TJ was interrupted by all of them tearing apart their wrapped presents.

"Oh, my god, where did you get this?" Toni exclaimed showing her teddy bear holding the bisexual flag in a heart shape in their hands and TJ shrugs. "I got the same last year, but pansexual and asked my mom where she got it and it was full of different flags," he explained and Toni hugs him and thanked him for the wonderful gift she got.

"No way, dude," Fangs and TJ just nods. Fangs got a record number of 'The Other Side' from the original version from The Get Down. They watched it once, again for TJ, and Fangs loved it and especially that song. "I got a copy myself," TJ says laughing and Fangs gave him a hug.

"You did not," Eden practically shouted and he turned to his best friend. "To symbolise our friendship and for being there for me," he says. TJ finally got Eden a best friend bracelet. TJ didn't found it necessary to have something like that, but when he fully opened up to her, they became closer than ever before and he loved it. He loved her and their platonic relationship, so he got them infinity bracelets. They both put the bracelets on and gave each other a long hug.

"Oh, my god, they're so adorable. I'm gonna cry," Fangs say which broke them apart. "Great Fangs, now you ruined the moment," Toni said disappointed. Not long after, Sweet Pea walked up to him holding his gift, which a long black snake necklace.

"I see how protective you are over the Serpents and over your friends, they're like family to you, I hope this little gift makes me a small part of it," TJ says. "Thank you, come," Sweet Pea ordered and they moved to the bar.

"What are we doing-" "Look up," Sweet Pea said and TJ did and saw the mistletoe under them and heard Eden quietly gasp. TJ looked back at Sweet Pea smirking and stood on his toes to kiss him. The kiss felt long and passionate, but gentle and soft and so sweet.

TJ jumped and wrapped his legs around Sweet Pea's legs as Sweet grabbed his waist and the three others cheered which broke them apart, smiling at each other. "I'm really making you soft," TJ commented jokingly and Sweet Pea let go of him. "Shut up," he said and TJ laughed. "So, I got that on camera," Eden said suddenly. "Make another, babe come," TJ said pulling his boyfriend his lengthy and kissing him. That kiss turned into a full photo shoot standing and sitting.
