Christmas Eve Will Find Me Where the Love Light Gleams (Avengers)
Christmas. Yule. Saturnalia. Dies Natalis Solis Invicti. Many cultures have celebrated and still celebrate a winter festival. There have been many names for it over the millennia. No matter the name it is a time to come together and celebrate with feasts and gifts with friends and loved ones.

Each culture has a legendary figure who would deliver gifts to children during this time. In Russia and some Slavic cultures he is known as Ded Moroz, Grandfather Frost, and comes not on Christmas but on New Year’s along with his granddaughter Snegurochka, or ‘”Snow Maiden”. In the United Kingdom and other parts of Europe he is known as Father Christmas. In the Netherlands and Belgium he is known as Saint Nicholas or “Sinterklaas” and in France he is known as Père Noël. In the United States we know him as Santa Claus.

No matter the name or who is delivering gifts, it is the season of peace, joy and togetherness. It is the season for thinking about loved ones, friends and those less fortunate. It is a time to witness the goodness and generosity the human race is capable of. It is a time for peace on Earth and goodwill toward man.

Well, crap. It was Christmas and she was still here. Not-the-Mama and the stuff on her birthday had gone a ways to making her feel more welcome, but this definitely wasn't home. Her parents and friends must have been going out of their mind with worry.

Not to mention she now had a brother to deal with, who she was trying her best to avoid until she could deal with the fact that said brother was banging her "sister."

Still, Stevie had given the majority of her teammates a "coupon" redeemable for free auto-work, a coupon for one day of no smart-mouthed insubordination for James.

And as for MC? Well, it was a long standing tradition for any gift exchange between the two of them (and had been since they had become friends when MC had let her chauffeur her around in her Power Wheels car), that Stevie always got MC car parts or accessories. Running gag. There was also, since they were still stranded, an offer to go shopping.

	Considering how miserable this holiday had the potential to be, MC elected to hide car-related things in the traditional box of shoes. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Stevie set out to, and did, find MC. "Hey, you." (Reply to this)(Parent)
