Estratto role #𝖢𝖾𝗅𝖾𝖻𝗋𝖺𝗍𝖾𝖸𝗎𝗅𝖾𝟤𝟢𝟤𝟢 con Kimberly Amore... so che è difficile per te, in tutto questo caos concentrarti e fare qualcosa tipo quella dell'anno scorso ma ho rubato carta e penna e pensavo... Facciamo qualcosa in piccolo. K: * sorride e si avvicina a lui fissandolo: I desideri ? O le paure? E se fosse entrambe? Su due fogli diversi. Prima uno e poi l'altro K: * lo fissa* Sai che alcune lentamente... Sono guarite dell' anno scorso? Sono felice di sentirlo amore. Davvero. E io... beh quello che mi ha trattenuto l'anno scorso ora non c'è più. Sai a cosa mi riferisco vero? K: Si..eccome... * Ammicca* E si, piano alcune ferite si chiudono...altre sono ancora lì. Ci vuole tempo amore. Ma non sei sola in questo, lo sai K: * gli prende la mano* Ti amo...ti amo più di tutto al mondo Anche io ti amo davvero tanto. K: Lo so... * Gli sfiora le labbra con un bacio* Con tutta questa confusione non credo che la padrona di casa si accorgerà che le ho rubato un portacenere che mi servirà per quello che ho in mente. Il fuoco... quello ce lo metterò io. K: Il cuore io Allora carta e penna e via con le paure e i desideri. Su fogli diversi mi raccomando. K: Va bene va bene * Prende la carta e la penna e comincia a scrivere * * La osserva mentre scrive così concentrata e fa un lieve sorriso. Poi si mette anche lui a fare la lista delle paure e dei desideri. Quando pensa di aver finito chiude il foglio e fa un sospiro. * K: * scrive scrive Di desideri ne ha tanti davvero tantissimi..di paure... Meno molte meno* Fatto * Chiude i fogliettini* Ok ora butta dentro il portacenere e questo mago farà la sua magia. * posa i bigliettini dentro posacenere* Vai amore * David si toglie la giacca, si sbottona una manica della camicia e con un lieve gesto della mano fa comparire il fuoco per dirigerlo verso i fogli dove sia Kim sia lui avevano scritto quello che avevano nel cuore. "Dopo dovrò fregare un po' di cibo ma credo che per quello non ci sia problema. Felice Yule, amore mio." K: Felice Yule amore * Lo bacia*

So, let me tell you about my Yule log experience this year.

I already took on a lot more baking than I am used to, but really wanted a Yule log of some sort to put on my altar for Odin and the other Norse gods.

But holy shit, that's a hell of a project. So I improvised. I got a pack of swiss cake rolls. And I put it on the altar with the promise that I would do better next Yule.

And Odin was pleased that I'd thought of a solution.

Funny thing. The day after I was going to split the pack of two with my fiance but when I came in the bedroom the little shit had eaten both of them.

Odin was highly amused.

“I’ve got something for you, too, baby doll.” Keeping one arm around Leslie, Tristan reached him and took a small blue velvet box from behind one of the couch cushions.

“This thing between us? I know it’s still pretty new and we’re still figuring things out, but I’m in it for the long haul. I’m here for whatever the future brings us and whatever we make of it.” He smiled. “I’m anchored in this port with you and I ain’t going anywhere.”

Leslie was given a gentle kiss. “Happy Yule. I love you so goddamn much.”

And of course Tristan remembered Opal. That cute, fuzzy little noodle would receive a pirate ship hammock for her to cozy up in when she was in her cage.

    He could agree. On the one hand, this relationship felt hastened; the other hand, far too slow for their experiences. It was as Tristan said; they were still figuring things out. Not even Ruby and Ester were decided. Not without hearing their side openly in Charles’ presence. And - He refused to be distracted from Tristan’s romantic gesture. They were finally alone. Felt like days since a proper quiet.

    “I don’t think I’ve ever heard you tell a lie. The way you say you love me, I feel like I’ve always heard it.”

Since Leslie was already here, it seemed as good a time as any for Kelly to give him his gift. This year, it was more than just alcohol.

“Happy Yule,” he said as he held out the box.

    Leslie covered his mouth and nose in a faulty effort to stifle laughter; a very unbecoming snort the result. “Thanks, Kell.”

     “[Tillie, what did I say about giving her sweets all night?]” Volt looked over from where he was sitting on the couch, to where Harmony was most happily chewing on a candy came given to her by their friend. The twenty year old only grinned at him and went back to carrying on her conversation as if he hadn’t said anything. 

     “[Oh let them have fun. They’re only young once and it’s not like the village isn’t used to hearing her howling in the middle of the night anyway.]” Augustus chuckled as Volt looked at him next and shrugged his shoulders before going back to messing with the collar around his neck. Even though the hybrid pair had arrived at the home for dinner as they had been asked, the older wolf was dead set on getting the device off before the holidays ended. 

     “[Yeah, but you’re not the one who has to stay up all night with her.]” A fair point, but it was ignored with a smirk and Volt settle back on the cushion, wishing he had his other arm in order to cross them across his chest while pouting. But he soon was finding himself letting out a startled sound as...

CLICK

     “[Finally!]” The shout brought the attention in the room to the two males, Volt bringing his hand up to his throat and taking a deep breath. Another breath and the older hybrid explored his neck, trailing the lock that had been pressed against his skin for just a bit too long. Augustus had been quick to remove the collar fully, and moved out of the way for Harmony to join her father on the couch as he closed his eyes in relief. 

     When they reopened and looked to Harmony, the preteen was smiling at seeing the bright color that she was so used to one again. It didn’t take long for her to throw both of her arms around his neck and hug him for all he was worth on the couch while the rest of the canine family gave them a moment before interrupting. Mostly because Heidi had something important to give as a gift. 

     “[I’ve been working on this while you both were recovering... I couldn’t get it to line up completely so I had to add some fabric, but I know how much this meant to you.]” Harmony had sat down beside her father as he looked down at the black fabric laid on his lap. His only hand quickly fell onto the magenta emerald symbol embroidered in the middle before looking up. 

     “[You didn’t have to Heidi...]” Anything else he would have said caught in his throat as she lifted the garment so he could get a full look at the repaired hoodie. It was only an inch of fabric that had been used to attach the sleeve to the rest of it, magenta in color to match the emerald on the front, Volt stared at it for a minute and then reached out while trying his best not to let the small amount of tears in his eyes fall. The woman only smiled as he brought it to his chest. 

     “[I might not have had to, but I wanted to. We all know the reason you have kept that hoodie for as long as you have and I don’t intend on having you lose it. Happy Yule Voltage.]”

     “[And don’t think we forgot about you Little Fluff.]” Tillie added as she grabbed the package she had stashed by the tree. Once in the preteen’s hands, the paper didn’t last long and she looked at the large satchel with stars in her eyes. “[We thought that maybe the one you had was getting a little small, so this might be just a bit better to carry all your stuff.]”

     They expected the preteen to show her appreciation for the gift. The coywolf just hadn’t been expecting to be knocked on her backside to be hugged for it. 

     “Thank ya so much Aunt Tillie! And Grammy Heidi and Grandpa GusGus! This is awesome and I’m gonna take really good care of it!” But it gave her parents and Volt a chance to laugh so she would deal. After a moment, Augustus gestured towards the dining room. 

     “[I think now would be the best time to eat our dinner then and we can all head back to the Inn after. I heard Greta was opening her newest batch of schnapps.]” He watched Harmony do just that with his wife and daughter in tow before offering a hand to help Volt up. One that was taking with a firm squeeze. 

     “[Happy Yule Augustus.]”

     “[Merry Christmas Voltage.]”
