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.]

[It was almost hypocritical of her to get mad over him screwing up and then immediately attempting to absolve himself of responsibility for it. But she did anyway.]

Except you're talking about somebody he knew personally. Somebody he was close to.

It'd be like telling you that your father died in another universe. [A flash of pain swept over her eyes. This was personal experience talking now.] I don't care how many Dicks or Tonys show up...it still hurts. It won't ever stop hurting.

[Bart sighs and fiddles with something small, too quickly to make out what it is. It doesn't matter. He just wants something to focus on besides the words he's saying, to keep them nice and soft and even.]

My dad is dead. So if that's supposed to be revenge, you're too late. Try telling me he's alive next time.

How am I supposed to know that Jack knew him? I don't read minds. I don't even know everyone Kon knows and he's my best friend. This isn't fair.

[Her expression just barely softens, but she doesn't back down in the slightest.]

So's mine. Every universe. Either dead or trapped or just...faded from everyone's memories.

It's not about revenge, Bart. Not this time. I just want you to understand why what you did was pretty cruel from his point of view. Just...let it go, alright? No more dead people stories. We've all had enough.

I'm sorry about your dad.

[And he really is.]

But I'm not going to watch every word that I say on the off chance that it might upset someone. I'm sorry Jack's upset. I don't think it was 'cruel'. But it's not your business, and I'm not letting you blame me for not knowing what Jack didn't choose to tell me. I get protecting your friend, but you go too far AND you say it's my fault. Not cool, Z. It was an accident.

I won't be at the party. If that wasn't really obvious.

[He abruptly ends the feed.]
