We Wish You a Merry Christmas (Outsiders)
It was the season of joy and togetherness and this year faces that had been missing last year had returned. It was a time to celebrate and a time to enjoy the company of friends and loved ones. Decorations and lights gave the atmosphere a festive spirit and the Outsiders would come together to celebrate.

"I guess that was a plus?" Zoe asked, looking up at the house and wondering how a couple of people could live in something so big. "GPS in your slippers, right?"

She got a nudge from her mother in a not so subtle hint to behave herself.

Michelle shook her head, although she had to admit that for Zoe, the comment was actually friendly. If she had to guess, she'd say that her fearless daughter was feeling a little bit of fear at not fitting in.

She linked her arm with Zoe's. "It's a beautiful house, GK."

"Wow... reminds of the time I got lost on the Watchtower on the moon when I was five," he says. "It took them three days to find me."

"It was a rough time, with a lot of Weird Stuff, and she needed her space." GK smiles at Ms. Torres. "Thank you, Ma'am." He then goes wide-eyed. "Three days? How did you not starve?"

And soon it is Introduction Times! "Michelle, you remember Rosie," says Jed. "Mom, this is Michelle."

"So good to meet you!" Grandma Walker says cheerfully.
"See, Mom, she does exist!" Rose says teasingly. "And this must be Eli.. Hello!"

"Hello, yes, I am." Eli says and offers a hand. He's remembering his manners.

"So good to finally meet you. Nice to see the Walker Luck finally change." She smirks as she shakes his hand warmly.

And Grandma Walker turns, blinks at the wings considerably more than her children did, then just turns and ruffles GK's hair. "Well isn't that interesting," like she's never seen any type of metahuman person in her life. It's more utter naivete than being uncomfortable with it, though. "Miranda Walker."

Eli has nothing to say about the Walker luck, so he just smiles. To Grandma Walker he says, "They're real too."

"Wonderful! Has Gilbert found a lot of hair things that work on feathers yet?"

"Grandma... not really relevant!" GK mutters.

"Nothing wrong with being good with cosmetics, kiddo. It's your job. Now Mom, save the questions 'til we get everybody inside!" And inside they are all huddled.

Poor GK. "Gil's offered to help with them, but honestly there really aren't products out there for wings."

"Well, that's too bad," Rose says. "I remember little Alvin McNamara, he was GK's first 'boyfriend,' and his mothers hadn't spoken to me in years, but they called to ask what precisely, GK had done with their son's hair and how could they do it."

GK looks mortified.

"I didn't realize I was thought to be imaginary," Michelle said, amused. "GK has done wonders with Zoe's hair. I've even seen her primp in the mirror and she's never been that sort of teenager."

"I don't now how obvious it is, but we're not known for getting out much in our family unless it's professional."



GK goes from mortified to slightly triumphant. "I do my best."

"I don't primp," Zoe said in protest, unheard by the mothers bonding over their quirky children.

"She doesn't," Eli offers helpfully and sort of unsure if he should be glad or sad he didn't have a parent bonding over their child.

"And what he's done with her closet is nothing less than a miracle. Now I see color when I open it instead of solid black."

Behind her, Zoe closed her eyes, took a deep, slow breath and reminded herself that Mom was happy and that was all that mattered.
