    Title/Series: Cyber Monday! (A Thanksgiving Visit, part V)
    Author: BookGirl
    Prompt: Bah Humbug

    Brian woke up to the sound of typing. A one-eyed squint revealed a naked blond snuggling with his laptop. “What in the hell are you doing?” He asked roughly, “It's 4 AM.”
    “It's Cyber Monday!” Justin whispered excitedly.
    Brian furrowed his brow, or at least tried to. It was a little early for facial expressions. “Unless that has something to do with porn, you and the laptop need to get out of my bed.”
    “You always say Christmas is really all about commercialism, I'm just trying to prove you right.”
    “Well Bah Humbug,then.” Brian muttered, slapping the laptop closed and diving on Justin.

    Title: Old Friends
    Author: [info]vl_redreign
    Prompt: Bah!Humbug!

    Notes: Same timeline, shift in POV. And mention of an old, much missed friend. This thing took off on me, and I had to cut out almost 40 words. So, unbeta'd.


    Lindsay stood at the backdoor and stripped each child, wrapping them in terry robes and leading them to the kitchen table, where hot chocolate awaited.

    Marie entered, carrying her youngest, followed by Mel.

    “I’m so glad you guys are here,” she said. “Dusty loved the holidays.”

    “Do you remember that year when she and I were insane enough to do the Black Friday sales?”

    Marie laughed. “That was a nightmare!”

    “I told her she was nuts to go,” Mel added.

    “I miss her still,” Linds said softly.

    “Well, she’d want us to enjoy ourselves. No ‘bah humbugs’ in this house.”

    Author: wavingcat5
    Prompt: Bah Humbug
    Notes: Of course, Brian is the cynic in this drabble.
    I also wanted to post a B/J ice skating story, but it's not working out. Can I pimp my need for a beta here?

    Title: Where It’s Snowing

    Author: [info]noteverything

    Prompt: First Snow
    
Notes: Unbeta’d...all mistakes are mine. This is for the amazing [info]fun_demented, for more reasons than I could ever say. &hearts
 I took the idea from a drabble I wrote last year for the 100 drabbles [info]jule1122 and I did for the 100th prompt in [info]qaf_drabbles. Sort of a prequel, if you will.


    “George! You have to come see!” Emmett’s voice rang through the room as he hurried in to rouse George from his easy chair near the roaring fire. “First snow of the season!”

    Emmett, dressed all in white right down to his fur-topped boots, was grinning from ear to ear as he handed George his coat and mittens. “It’s so beautiful,” Emmett exclaimed.

    George let himself be pulled out into the yard and spent the rest of the afternoon with the love he never thought he’d find, building a snowman with a red scarf and a pickle for a nose.

    Title/Series: Missing You (A Thanksgiving Visit, part IV)
    Author: BookGirl
    Prompt: Holidays on Ice
    Note: Quick, dirty and unbetaed. I apologize for any mistakes.

    “How is it possible you've been here for 8 hours and my dick has yet to make contact with your ass?” Brian asked sliding the loft door closed behind them.
    “Poor baby, next time I'll just let you fuck me right on the table. We can use the gravy as lube. I'm sure Deb won't mind a bit”
    “She's seen worse I'm sure. Someone need a drink.”
    “What I need is you naked, but I'll settle for a Christmas Ale.”
    Brian snorted. “Christmas Ale are you kidding me?”
    “Yeah, it's like the holidays on Ice.”

    Title: Ungraceful Under Pressure
    Author: [info]vl_redreign
    Prompt: Holidays On Ice

    Notes: [info]frantic_quest gave me the idea for this one. I couldn't resist.


    Gus and JR ran around the outskirts of the pond, laughing. Michael alternately pelted them with snow, and watched the spectacle before him.

    On the pond, revelations were being discussed.

    “Okay, explain to me how you’re so good at ice skating?” Justin huffed.

    “Ice hockey. Best way to get back at the jocks in school,” Brian replied. “What I don’t get is, how the country club brat isn’t good at ice skating. Don’t they give you private lessons or something?”

    “Or something. Good thing my ass is bouncy. Came in handy a lot.”

    “So that’s how it got so big!”

    Title: First Snow...or Not (A Thanksgiving Visit part III)
    Author: BookGirl
    Prompt: First Snow

    “Hey kids, look! The first snowfall of the year!” Michael gestured excitedly at the window.
    “It already snowed lots in Canada, Uncle Michael.” Gus announced, clearly unimpressed.
    Justin smirked. “In New York too.”
    “Really?” Gus asked, staring up at Justin.
    “Yep.” Justin smiled and scooped Gus up in his arms. He drew snowflakes on the frosted glass as he spoke. “In fact I bet it starts in Canada and then sweeps down to New York. It's like we're sharing the same snow.”
    “Cool! Is that why you and Dad were so late for dinner? Because of our snow?”

    Title: Irreconcilable Differences
    Author: [info]vl_redreign
    Prompt: First Snow

    Notes: So far these are falling in chronological order. Not sure if that will continue. We'll see! Oh, and no beta, so this is entirely my fault.


    Brian rolled over and landed in a cold spot. He opened his eyes and stared at the place where Justin’s warm ass should have been.

    He shoved his hair out of his eyes, grumbling. First, Justin slipped into a tryptophan-induced coma. Then, Brian had to wake him to punish him severely for his lack of decorum.

    Well, that depended on one’s definition of punishment.

    And now he was gone.

    “Hey.”

    “Where the hell were you?”

    “Calling Mel and Linds, and Michael.”

    “Why?”

    “First snowfall. We’re taking Gus and JR to the park.”

    Maybe he could bury Justin in a snowbank…

    Title: Blush
    Author: [info]vl_redreign
    Prompt: Stuffed

    Notes: It's really hard to write a drabble when your 9 year old niece attaches herself to you like a leech for the better half of the day. Love you, Gracie Bubbles!


    He’s still asleep. It’s been three hours since we left his mother’s, and four since Deb’s. I have no idea where he put everything that he stuffed in his mouth. My Christmas wish is that it goes to his ass.

    Speaking of which…I lean over and smack it, and my dick gets hard from both the red flush and his yelp.

    “Brian, what the fuck?”

    “It’s been five hours since I fucked you. My dick is lonely.”

    “Since when did I have to be awake for you to fuck me?”

    “”You don’t. But it would be nice if you were.”

    Title: Moment of Clarity
    Author: [info]wavingcat5
    Prompt: Stuffed
    Notes: It's almost the Silly Season in Australia.

    Ted had run out of Claratyne. The drugstore was closed.

    He went to Emmett's despite his stuffed sinus. But Emmett's Persian cat loved laps. Ted's inner ear began itching.

    Ted drank to forget. He proved allergic to the preservatives in the wine. His eyelids swelled.

    Ted prayed in the bathroom. Tiphini entered, sacrilegiously regurgitating a furball.

    'I'm leaving, Emmett. I can't pat pussy anymore'.
    'But that's not who you are. You love cats!'
    'I made a promise to God. If He never deprives me of effective antihistamines again, I'll never expose myself to known allergens.'

    Ted had seen the light.

    Prompt: Thanksgiving Day
    Notes: I know I'm being glib about Thanksgiving, but it's a very Australian trait, so plze forgive!

    *

    “Happy Thanksgiving!”

    “Hey, Sunshine. You too. Or was that yesterday for you?”

    “It would have been, but Australians know nothing about Thanksgiving, and care even less. Besides, it’s too damn hot here for turkey.”

    “Poor Justin. Suffering for your art.”

    I snort. “Shut up. I know I shouldn’t complain, and I’ve sold three pieces already, so that’s good. I just wish I was there.”

    “No worries, mate!” Brian says in a god-awful Australian accent. “I’ll stuff your turkey when you get back.”

    I laugh. “Maybe I’ll stuff yours too.”

    He lowers his voice. “Well, there’s something to be thankful for.”

    Author: [info]vl_redreign
    Prompt: Thanksgiving Day

    Notes: Thanks to [info]firehead30 and [info]zaipixie for catching my errors. And for being my bitches.


    Deb got her wish, and the house was filled to bursting this Thanksgiving. The girls were home from Canada, and Justin flew in from New York. They stood around the table, hands clasped and heads bowed.

    “Everyone name one thing that you’re thankful for this year. Em, honey, you wanna start?”

    “Well, I’m thankful that business is good.”

    “Brian?”

    “I’m thankful that Justin didn’t lose any weight off his ass-“

    He was rewarded with a smack upside the head from Deb.

    “Mama?”

    “Just a minute, Jenny,” Mel whispered.

    “But Mama, I havta poop!”

    “Well, there’s something to be thankful for.”

    Author: [info]wavingcat5
    Prompt: Thanksgiving Day
    Notes: My first go at fiction anything in 12 years, so instead of dreaming something new up I've started simple with my picture of a scene I love. I hope you don't mind :)


    He takes what he wants. But he also gives - and doesn't ask for acknowledgement.

    I can learn from him. I can help without saying a word. I don't need to be told I'm brave or clever. That asshole's promise to lay off Brian is enough.

    Brian's relief is palpable. He dances with me, uncharacteristically friendly. He can't know it was my doing, but his new warmth and openness say 'Thankyou' to the universe, anyone, me. He picks up my shirt as I almost lose it on the crowded floor. A chivalrous moment - but today, I'm the knight in shining armour.

    The 37 Days of Gusmas: Rage the kitten grows up
    Hello, this is Rebel. This is my first drabble since I went to heaven, because it took a long time to get xie_xie_xie (not her real name) to stop crying and start typing.

    She was always a little slow about typing, to tell the truth.

    She has been very sad and while even before she was sad she was, as I said, slow, and also sometimes took me to the veterinarian, I love her anyway and decided to write a new story about Rage the kitten to make her happy again.

    Although now Rage is actually a cat.

    So here is my first new Rage drabble. Happy Thanksgiving!

    PS, heaven is very nice but I do miss all of you. And please stop xie_xie_xie from being sad and write lots and lots of drabbles.

    Sincerely,

    Rebel
