Christmas!

 The video opens to Peter standing in the living room. It looks like Christmas threw up on Stark Tower; there are decorations everywhere, complete with a massive Christmas tree covered in beautiful ornaments and garnishes, and surrounded by a large pile of presents.

"Hey guys, welcome back to the Ironfam!" Peter exclaims. "So, this video is coming out a little later for all of you guys, but... it's Christmas Eve! And whatever else I've said about Halloween and Thanksgiving and stuff... Christmas is definitely my absolute favorite holiday! And, what's even better..."

Peter picks up the camera and walks over to the window, showing a picture of a white-frosted city, with more snow still falling.

"We've got a white Christmas!" he says excitedly. "I just... I love Christmas, a lot, and of course there's some bitterness... it's the first Christmas without May, and that's... killing me, but I just have to... get through it, you know? I mean, I know May wouldn't want me to sit around moping about it, and she'd be so upset if I let it ruin Christmas. So I've let myself have a few hours of being depressed, and sure, I've cried a bit, I'm not ashamed to admit that, but... now it's time for some Christmas Eve shenanigans! Mr. Stark and Pepper have childhood traditions, and so do I, so we're going to combine them and get some crazy Christmas **** done!"

Peter, Tony, and Pepper are now standing side-by-side in the kitchen. They each have a massive gingerbread mansion in front of them, completely devoid of any icing or decorations. Tony's looks something like a large, fancy hotel, Pepper's like something out of the Victorian era, and Peter's looks like something out of a Christmas movie.

"So, one of Pepper's childhood traditions is a gingerbread house decorating competition," Peter explains. "As you can see, Mr. Stark is a little extra, and he decided to get these pre-built monstrosities so we don't have to worry about putting them together, because none of us would be very good at that."

"Excuse me, kid," Tony says, offended. "I'm an engineer. I'd be very good at that."

"Sure," Peter rolls his eyes. "We each got to pick what kind of gingerbread mansion we'd like to make, and this is what we've got! So... let's get on with it!"

There's a time-lapse of them decorating their houses. They're all surprisingly good at it; all of the mansions look like they were made by gingerbread professionals.

"Alright!" Peter exclaims. "We've finished decorating, so now it's time for the judging! Pepper, Mr. Stark, and I won't be in the kitchen during the judging; Natasha, Clint, and Steve will be doing that. They don't know who built which one, so there's no bias! Now, over to Nat, Clint, and Steve!"

Natasha, Clint, and Steve are sitting at the kitchen table, the gingerbread monstrosities sitting in front of them.

"Hmm..." Natasha looks over each of the houses, deliberating. "Well... they're all pretty cool, I'm impressed with all of them. However... I think this one," she gesture's at Tony's, "is a little... too much. And this one," she nods at Pepper's, "Just has too much going on. Honestly, my favorite is this one." She points at Peter's.

"Really?" Clint asks, surprised. "I really like this one," he points at Pepper's. "It's very nice."

"You just like how much candy is on it," Steve rolls his eyes. "If I'd have to rank them, I'd say this one, then this one, then that one."

He gestures to Peter's, Pepper's, and Tony's, in that order.

"I'd have to agree," Natasha nods. "That one is impressive, but it seems... almost like they're trying too hard. This one is very simple and sweet. It's still very impressive and fancy, without being too much."
