When Out On the Lawn There Arose Such a Clatter
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

The Avengers' Mansion was decorated and festive. Inside the Avengers celebrated Christmas Day. Outside there was a flash of light and six time and dimensionally displaced Avengers showed up.

	Liz snapped a picture of Charlie with her comm and sent it off. She offered him a slight smile and a salute. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Charlie laughed, offering a salute of his own. He made his way over to her. "So..." he said, his hands awkwardly at his side. "It's Liz, right?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Right," she said. "I was sending Mom a picture. She said you were kind of a dweeb when you were younger." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Charlie looked absolutely puzzled. "So...your parents are friends of mine, or something?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"You could say that. Mom would die laughing." She readied her comm to take another picture because this was something she was going to hold over her dad's head. "I'm Liz Rogers." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	He blinked. Once. Twice. Three times. "Oh. Well...um...nice to meet you, Liz." His kid. Wow. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	She caught it all in living color. "Nice to meet you too. Mom sends her best but she won't show up. She said that would send you screaming for the loony bin. I'm supposed to not pick on you too much." She grinned. "How much is too much?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Leaving me pantsless in the front hall," he said with a laugh. "That's too much. "If you don't mind me asking...who is your mom?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	9mm_gal 2010-12-30 03:46 am UTC (link)
	"Sam Fury," she said, "and I learned my lesson about parents who appear pantsless in the front hall. I turn around and pretend I didn't see anything." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Congratulations, Liz Rogers. You broke him. Charlie just stared. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Liz got another picture. "This one is for my wall. So, just to cover all the bases - you and Mom are married, I had a great childhood, Grandpa Nick says you weren't the worst thing that happened to our family, and for future reference, calling me Lizzie-belle in front of my dates doesn't embarrass me."
