Dealing With Loss [after classes]

[momslilassassin]

"Hey, everyone," Ben said, blushing faintly and trying to hide under his Santa hat. "Sorry I missed the last few weeks. I, um, was a cat. With the Earth holidays coming up, a lot of students will be heading home for a few weeks, and I know that's not possible for some of you. Is there anything we can do as a group to make your time in the dorms a little less lonesome?"

Ben looked thoughtful. "True," he said finally. "This planet is weird."

Karla threw her hands up in the air. "I know!" she said. "I just don't get it, sometimes. Why make a holiday about monsters blackmailing kings, I ask you?"

"No idea," Ben replied, "but at least there are gifts?"

"Of course there are," Karla muttered darkly. "Look at the origins."

She was still talking more about Frankenstein and the king more than the three Wise Males.

"Happy Diety Blackmail Day!" Ben said.

"Hugs and expensive gifts all around!" Karla declared. "You know, I don't think there's anything we could add that would make this holiday any weirder."

You know, apart from everything else they'd added already. Kung-fu action Joseph!

"The powered sugar snow was pretty weird," Ben offered.

"No, it was tasty," Karla corrected. "And come on. That's just Fandom being Fandom. Remember the syrup? And the glitter? And the chocolate?"

"I'm still waiting for ice cream," Ben said with a laugh.

"We'd never get you inside," Karla said with a mournful sigh. "First because you'd refuse to budge and then because you wouldn't fit."

Ben stuck his tongue out at her. "Be nice."
