Justice League
Yes, Virginia, there is a Santa Claus. He exists as certainly as love and generosity and devotion exist, and you know that they abound and give to your life its highest beauty and joy.

Christmas Day is a Christian holiday, it's true, but it also has become increasingly secular. It is an opportunity for love, charity, and goodwill.

There is some debate within mystical circles if there is indeed such a creature as the embodiment of Christmas Giving known as Santa Claus. But whether or not there is such a being, the spirit of giving itself is very real, be it incarnated in a fat man in a red suit or not.

Throughout this small blue planet of Earth, people have brought trees into their homes, decorated them with lights and ornaments, and placed them in locations of honor. Stockings have been placed on the chimneys. And gifts have been placed under the tree.

Some are looking forward more to the receiving than the giving. But for many, it is the act of giving which warms them, which fills them with the holiday spirit.

Each person, in their own way, becomes a part of this spirit of giving. Each person, in their own way, becomes Santa Claus.

The Watchtower of the Justice League is not easily seen by passersby. Despite this, it is lined with a number of Christmas lights, thanks to certain spacefaring members of the League, while inside, decorations fill the common areas. As for the League members themselves...

	She just laughs, as she hands them each a t-shirt close enough to their size, but tight enough to be to her liking. "You know teen lantern... you look like the sort of guy who'd be really good at gay sex, only you might cry afterwards." It is one of Petra's goals in life to one day create the greatest non-sequitir in human history. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Nah, no crying," he shakes his head, then shoots her a wink. "But let's say I haven't had any complaints from either gender." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Without really thinking about it, and after a morning of having to try on everything his Mom got him, Jon pulls his shirt off and switches to the Warrior's tee. "Why do I have a feeling I'm not sure I want to hear long conversations between you two?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	.... "I'm sorry, what?" Petra blinks, trying to remember where she was in the conversation. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Henry can't be left out here. He also strips out of his shirt and tries the other shirt on. "Well, that's one article of clothing I've tried on," he smiles. He tosses the boxers in his hand again, and grins at Petra. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	She rolls her eyes, but whistles appreciatively. "Keep the pants on for now, teen lantern. Impressionable youths, or worse, parents, might show up." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Jon suddenly realizes what he just did, and almost facepalms. "If you're going to do a fashion show, I should probably head for the other room. She's right though. Iris in particular." He has enough discipline not to abuse x-ray vision. He's pretty sure Iris doesn't need to get stuck between Henry and Petra flirting. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	He grins. "You guys are no fun," he replies, mock-pouting. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"You without pants on is something I don't need see, Henry." Jai enters the room, having just come from the teleporters. He smirks, "Merry Christmas everyone." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Petra grins and saunters over, reaching into the merch-sack and this time producing... a hoodie. She hands it to Jai and holds up the mistletoe again after he takes it. "Merry Giftmas." She grins. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	He takes the hoodie, smiling. "Thanks, Petra...right? Merry Christmas." His face turns just the slightest shade of red at the mistletoe. He places a soft, chaste kiss on her lips. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Henry cheers and whoops for Jai's kiss. (Reply to this)(Parent)
