A very nice lady kindly knitted us some stockings for the Christmas holiday! I... have no idea why hanging socks became a holiday tradition... But as they say, "When in Rome..."
Luck said "Socks belong on feet" and now refuses to take them off, even when Sarge told him that they can't be filled with presents if his feet are in them.
After Fives' heroic work in saving his vod and ori'vod and finding its in the 40s tonight Fives is getting a reward of hot chocolate.
Fives: Hey echo check it out! It's a giant popper! But it's for hot chocolate!
Shriek: It's even got marshmallows in it!!
Echo: Be sure you take the foil off first. I don't want to have to explain to Rex how this went sideways...
They're waiting on the hot water now. Echo wonders if he can find some use for the red foil.
I poured the hot water for them ( sadly I forgot to get milk on my last grocery run so may not be as good as intended but i have one more and i can hold off on it until i get some milk).
Shriek: You know for being called a Hot Chocolate Popper it's kind anti climactic...
Fives: I mean it kinda exploded? the marshmallows are bursting out of the side of it.
Echo: it's not meant to literally explode.. .that'd be dangerous!
Fives: Yeah that's true.
Shriek: I dunno.. it could have had like some edible glitter come out too just make it more fun?
Echo is on stirring duty as he wants to be sure it gets done right. Plus it's a reward for his brother. Who put himself at risk to save him and their sister.
Fives has already enjoyed his hot chocolate reward. Having tasted it myself, cause he cant drink it all alone, itd be better with milk. So i need to remember to get milk for the other one.
