tushanshu | Video; In which cold weather is clearly the best!

[Everyone gets to see two familiar faces this time, with a couple of twists. Dick (the elder) is sitting down in the chair, wearing a bright red coat with white trim, a hat of the same color, and of course, a beard to match the whole thing. It’s pulled down, though, so you can see his face. And his wonderful assistant, Zatanna, is standing behind him, dressed up like the most beautiful elf there is. They’re both looking pretty happy about this.]

It’s getting cold out! And what does cold mean? Holiday fun, of course. So I, and my amazing elf assistant here, have decided that Santa Claus needs to come to the turtle. [See what he did there? See it? Okay, good.]

And so it is with pleasure that we let everyone know-- [He gets cut off as Zatanna leans forward, and he looks up at her.]

[The fifteen-year-old elf bends down until she's level with his ear, covering her mouth so she could whisper something secretively to him.]

Really?

[She nods, and offers a playful wink.] Trust me. I know a guy who knows the guy personally.

[Dick looks back at the screen, and his voice drops into a perfect, heavy Russian accent.] Is this better?

[She practically has to bite her tongue to keep from bursting out laughing. Impressive. She should've known.] It'll do.

[Dick grins.] I’d like to invite everyone to come over to the Wood sector, where we have a little holiday party going on.

[He stops, laughing and shaking his head. He has to drop the Russian accent.] Okay, I can’t keep that one up, but I tried! Anyway, we’ve got a small thing going on in a café in the Wood sector, with some cakes and gingerbread-ish things, and some hot drinks. And what would Santa be without his...

[He holds up a huge, red velvet-like bag.] Bag, yes! And it is filled with little odds and ends, so there are presents for all!

[Dick sets the bag down, and pulls the beard back up with a grin.] And to all, a good... day? Yeah, that still works. To all, a good day! Remember, café in the Wood sector, we’ll be here awhile!

[ooc: Action is absolutely welcome.]

[And Kon hits to reply almost as soon as he's seen it and he's already laughing so hard he has to gasp for air. It's a loud laugh, pretty hysterical too. His sides and stomach are hurting.]

Oh man, oh man, dude this has to be the best thing I've seen on the turtle.

[His lips and are twitching at the corners of his mouth and his shoulders are shaking.]

I'm not sitting in anyone's lap though.

Good. Because I wasn't offering.

[Hi, Kon. For once, Zatanna is taking great pride in being laughed at. That was half the point, after all--to bring a little Christmas Cheer.]

Now that's a shame.

So who had the idea for the outfit? And you know I'm there for it!

Down, boy. This is supposed to be a family-friendly party.

I think he came up with the whole Santa concept, and we both brainstormed from there. It's amazing what two incredibly showmanship-oriented minds can come up with when left alone for ten minutes.

I'll be on my best behaviour.

[He snorts and leans back a little in the chair.]

I like the idea though. I'm impressed.

Thanks. We liked the idea too.

I even spent an entire afternoon in my kitchen, baking.

Well here's hoping it's good.

Of course it's good. I just told you I did all the baking, didn't I?

[RUDE]

I'm in a team with all teens back home, that's not reassuring.

[Ha ha ha...hahaha.]

Bet none of them had a Justice Leaguer for a father they had to feed, or else the two of them starved.

Fine then. No cookies for you.

You got me there.

Woooow, I never said I wouldn't try them.

You insulted my baking skills. Now you have to suffer the consequences.

[Activate puppy dogs eyes.]

B-But! Pleeeeeease?

[They are only very, very very slightly effective.]

Contrary to popular belief, that's not actually a magic word.

Hocus pocus doesn't have the same ring to it.

[Yes, this is what they wanted. And Dick is loving this.]

I wasn't offering, either! I have to draw the line somewhere. [Dick grins.]

Not a shame with you, more a blessing. [He's trying not to laugh again.]

Nice look.

That really hurts me, Kon. [He puts a hand to his chest.] Right here. Right in the heart.

[He grins.] Thank you! You can borrow it whenever you want.

I'm sure you'll get over it real quick when some hottie walks in and asks.

[His eyes widen and he holds up his hands.] You know what? I'm good.

There is a distinct lack of some here, that are actually of age. I'm really hoping for a few to show up, though.

[He has a few in mind. Dick has to laugh.] Come on! Red is definitely your color, you could pull this off.

Ah well see, that's where it pays to be me then, huh? I got the chance. But don't worry, I'm sure some will.

Dude I rock red but I'd hate to show you up or anything.

Does that actually work on women here, the whole 'it pays to be me' thing? [He has to tease him a little bit.]

Like you could show me up! I look good in any color.

[A huff, not an actual one, as he crosses his arms.] Rude.

Pfft! I can totally show you up! I'm a Super, I wear a whole mix of colours and make them look good.

Valid question, my friend, valid question. [That's a no, then.]

So, what you're saying is, you can wear a mix of all rainbow colored clothes, and still make them look good?

[Uuuh no it totally works Dick!

He pulls a face at that.]

I don't think anyone could make the rainbow look good.
