O Tannenbaum

Up until recently maintained as a museum, the childhood home of the Braddock family has been pressed into service as classroom space for the University. Additionally, the increased demands have led to the main ballroom being converted into a cafeteria for University students on a meal plan. The old library has been bolstered with college textbooks.

Haley carefully re-wrapped the present, deciding she would be good for a change.

"Well Mr. Pine Nuts, I guess I'll wait so I don't get coal in my stocking," she giggled.

"Thank you, Will," she smiled back.

It probably looked weird to an outsider, her just smiling and occasionally laughing while gazing at the tree.

"This is really sweet. I'll have to bake you something special."

I must admit, I have a ~fiendish~ sweet tooth. Quickest way to get on my good side, there.

That's when Shari comes down the stairs, holding a bunch of awkwardly wrapped presents. There's lots of tape holding the various folds together and most of them have several layers of wrapping paper to shore up the missed spots. It's... a valiant effort.

It definitely contrasted to the more professional done and experienced wrapping efforts under the tree.

Amateur.

"How do you feel about pecan pie?" she grinned at the tree, oblivious to the new girl who probably saw her smiling like an idiot at the Christmas tree.

Shari heads over and starts placing her presents under the tree. "Hey Blondie. Hey Will." she says nonchalantly. She might not be good at wrapping presents, but she's got an eye for shapeshifters. Plus their conversation about trees kind of clued her in already.

Haley exhaled a sigh of relief, "Okay. Yeah. The tree is Will. He and I were talking, and when you came in and said hi to him, I got paranoid that my brain was leaking again, because it can do that sometimes, and my old roommate really hated it, so I try to be really careful about it, but sometimes i really can't help it."

Ramble much?

"Pff, kinda cool." she says, elbowing the tree a bit. "Though back home someone with your power would probably be put in charge of a lot of people. Or killed on sight."

Shari chuckles. "Hell, change your hair with your mood. Be a squid or grow feathers. Eat a burger in one bite." she goes on, unhinging her jaw into some kind of reptilian maw as she does.
