It is the Christmas Eve day, and Blackfire busily works in the kitchen creating the cookies for Santa Claus. She looks pretty cute with her oven mits on.
"Taste test!"
Blackfire brings out her second batch, and you and Flashfire hurry forward. Her first batch, plain sugar cookies, were good, and you hope this batch of chocolate chip cookies will be just as good.
You and Flashfire take a bite, and the chocolate chips melt easily into your mouths.
"Mmm! Delicious!"
"Thank you," Blackfire says with a smile as you give her a kiss congradulations.
"Oh, sorry, got some chocolate on your lips."
She licks it up and kisses you back.
"That's alright, it was delicious!"
"Okay, okay," Flashfire speaks up. "No kissing in front of me like this. We need to set some aside for Santa tonight, and remember to set out some milk as well."
"Do we even need to?" you question as you pick out the smallest cookies. "Raven said Santa isn't real, and she's smarter than Beastboy. And if he is, Beastboy said he's pretty big in the belly, he may be eating too many of these cookies each year."
"Beastboy doesn't need to be smart to know the truth," Flashfire counters, swapping out some small cookies for some medium-to-big cookies. "And so what if Santa is big? If it helps him get down the chimneys because of his weight, then he needs to be big."
"But Flashfire," Blackfire says, "Beastboy's physics were off. Santa may be big, but if he is too big, he'll get stuck no matter how heavy his mass is."
"Which is why he is magic and defies physics," Flashfire counters. "Now come on, we need to arrange our presents under our tree."
Flashfire fetches a couple of colorfully wrapped boxes, and brings them to the tree. You and Blackfire go into your room, and retrieve similar boxes from their hiding places. You both head back together, and put them under the tree. The one Blackfire got for you seems to be the biggest, but you can't ask what it is because you all agreed not to.
"I hope what Blackfire got you is really special," Flashfire says. "Otherwise it'll just be a big space-waster."
Flashfire giggles as Blackfire scowls.
"It won't waste space," she says. "And I know we said no hints, but I assure you, it will be fun to use."
"Fun for all or just fun for me and you?" you ask your naughty nymph of a wife.
"For all and for us," she says with a wink. "But we still have to wait until tomorrow to reveal what it is. Now come, we need to put final preparations on the gift for the Titans."
Blackfire leads you and Flashfire back to your room, and she takes out their present.
"I really hope Beastboy and the others like it," Flashfire says as she takes a hold of it.
"Don't worry, they'll love it for sure," you say as you take out the paint. "Now, let's begin."
