Uhuh, there were the gifts and the gatherings with "family", sort of, and the big central decoration... this is my third Christmas, though, and I'm very fond of the holiday.
Didn't think much on it til just the years past. Used t'be just a fuckin' cold day in t'middle of a bunch a others. Then a cheap excuse t'get Les a gift without her tryin' t'figure out what I broke...
But Julia? ... She loved it. Didn't really get it but aint no two year old brat gonna turn down a pile a toys. Spend t'whole day fillin' up t'apartment with laughter an' getting inta everythin'.
That's so cute. [She says with a refined fondness, definitely a little affectionate while still falling short of the intense gush of adoration a human girl might give, after a brief delay involving intense concentration. It's like she had to solve an equation in her head to answer.]
What do the dolls look like, do you play [She doesn't know Cowboys and Indians, and she doesn't think he'd know Terraingers and Limebloods--] Soldiers and Masked with them, or dress-up, or domestic shenanigans. [The tense is wrong, but she doesn't want to correct it - and technically present is more appropriate for a general question, she can defend that.]
She's three. Aint much she don't get inta, shenanigan wise.
...
Heh. She has this stuffed dog right? Can't tell it from lookin' at it none. Been worn down, washed bout a hundred times. Missin' the eyes. I mean right sorry damn wreck. Drags it round after her ever'where.
