X-Men
Yes, Virginia, there is a Santa Claus. He exists as certainly as love and generosity and devotion exist, and you know that they abound and give to your life its highest beauty and joy.

Christmas Day is a Christian holiday, it's true, but it also has become increasingly secular. It is an opportunity for love, charity, and goodwill.

There is some debate within mystical circles if there is indeed such a creature as the embodiment of Christmas Giving known as Santa Claus. But whether or not there is such a being, the spirit of giving itself is very real, be it incarnated in a fat man in a red suit or not.

Throughout this small blue planet of Earth, people have brought trees into their homes, decorated them with lights and ornaments, and placed them in locations of honor. Stockings have been placed on the chimneys. And gifts have been placed under the tree.

Some are looking forward more to the receiving than the giving. But for many, it is the act of giving which warms them, which fills them with the holiday spirit.

Each person, in their own way, becomes a part of this spirit of giving. Each person, in their own way, becomes Santa Claus.

1407 Graymalkin Lane is well decorated, and snow covers the grounds. A massive tree stands in the mansion's living room, and ribbons or pine line stairwells or the walls. As for the X-Men themselves...

Cait entered and saw her brother. Of course she knew who was responsible, but she had to laugh anyway. She had distributed her gifts to people earlier in the day. Between her and Lucas, the X-ers will put on a few pounds.

"No comment," Corey sighed.

"I think this may call for a teamup. I still need to pay him back for the dye job." Her hair still had traces of red in it.

Corey thought for a moment, then nodded. "Agreed. What sort of thing do we want to run here?"

Molly took the envelope for Corey, smiling. "Thank you, Corey. Merry Saturnalia to you too." Even though she has no idea what the hell that is.
