"A Christmas Scare-All"
by 'A Gentleman of Leisure' (c)2004.
Christmas was the only season of the year that had the potential to make
Spike and Drusilla feel at all nostalgic for their previous mortal
existence. There were, however, plenty of ways to compensate for this.
One was to join one of the many groups of carol singers going the rounds
of
the residential streets of fair Sunnydale. After all, no one kept a tally
of
the participants, did they? What were one or two more, or less, voices in
the quality of the overall performance? And if a few singers disappeared
unnoticed into the outer darkness from the back of a merry choir of
carollers, who was likely to be keeping count of heads?
Another amusing way of participating in the revelry was to book a Santa
Claus "for the kiddies' party". One at 3pm perhaps. And another at 4, from
a
different agency. And perhaps at 5 from a third. Who would miss one boozy,
fat old man in a red suit? Or two? Or three?
And then there were the late-at-night festivities, "for the adults, you
understand". How about a bunch of Christmas strippers "for a private
function"? The only potential problem might be if one or two of the girls
turned out to be vampires themselves. No matter, they were usually more
than
happy to join in the fun - there was always going to be enough for all in
Sunnydale!
END.
