User blog:007Jamesdean/11 Loud's A Leapin' (Done my way)

It starts out with me working in my room and I see the viewers.

Me: [to the Viewers] Oh hello everyone. Today is December 24th, AKA Christmas Eve and I can't wait for tomorrow. I'm just putting the finishing touches on all my gifts to Varie and my friends. I've been working on them since December 19th. This is my 1st ever Christmas here in Michigan. My grandma, Aunts and Uncles and relatives are coming over from Colorado and my dad went to go pick them all up at the airport. Varie is helping mom with cooking the Christmas dinner and Naruto is helping around the Loud House [I get back to work and finished my work] Perfect. Everything is ready. Now to go see my friends and get ready for christmas.

I slide down a tube that leads from my room into Lincoln's Room.

 [the whole mansion and the guest houses are decorated with a whole bunch of Christmas decorations, then zooms into Lincoln and Linka's room.]

Lincoln:  [pulls on his snow pants and talks to the viewers.]  "It's the day before Christmas"  [puts an orange sweater on over his head.]  "and there's no better time to be in the Loud House." [puts on a Charlie Brown Christmas-esque cap. I slide in and greet him]

 Me: Hey Lincoln. Are you excited to have the greatest christmas ever?

 Lincoln: I sure am J.D. I can't wait.

Me: Where's Linka?

''Lincoln: She's around. Lets go look around.''

 [Me and Lincoln exit his bedroom and pulls off Lana's scarf, causing her to spin into the bathroom. I use the Force and stop her from spinning.]

 Lana: Thanks J.D.

 Me: No problem Lana.

Luna:  [singing]  "♫ Christmas time is totally rad / I want those gifts, so I won't be bad! ♫"  [stops her song and groans]  "Aww! Come on!"

Me: I thought that was pretty good Luna.

Luna: Oh thank you J.D.

Lincoln: "Having trouble with this year's Christmas song, Luna?"

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Luna: "Bros, I'm stuck like Santa in a chimney!" [inspired]  "Ooh! That's not bad!" [starts singing a new song]  "♫ I'm stuck like Santa in a chimney! I've been good all year, so gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme! ♫"  [stops yet again]  "Aww, rubbish!"

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Me: You'll figure something out Luna.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Luan:  [pops out, dressed as a reindeer. Luna glares at her]  "I'll say! Those lyrics make no  frankincense !  [chuckles in a Santa Claus tone]  "That's one!"  [clicks on a remote resulting in a counter appearing with the number 1 on a Christmas tree.]

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">I laugh at Luan's pun.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Me: Good one Luan.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Luan: "Thanks. My twelve puns of Christmas are off to a great start. I've only got to come up with eleven  myrrh !" [chuckles]  "Make that ten!" [clicks her remote and t he counter now says 2.]

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">I laugh again and Eddy appears.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Eddy: Don't worry Luan! Yule get to 12! [Chuckles like Santa] That's one of my 12 Puns of Christmas.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">I laugh at Eddy's pun.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Me: Good one Eddy. Is Christmas your favorite holiday?

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Eddy: [Sighs] No it isn't J.D. Christmas got bad for me because all I ever got was clothes.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Me: Oh. That can get pretty monotonous can it?

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Eddy: Yep. But that doesn't matter anymore cause the greatest gift I've ever got was moving here to Royal Woods and being with Luan.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Luan: Oh Eddy. [Eddy and Luan Kiss]

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Me, Lily and Lincoln: AAAAWWWWW!

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Lily: You two are so cute together and I can tell you both were made for eachother.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Eddy: Thanks Lily.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Leni:  [walks up the stairs wearing a red and green dress and ornament earrings.]  "Hey, J.D., Lincoln! I just made the perfect Christmas outfit."

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Me: You look beautiful in that dress Leni. Where's Ed?

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Leni: He's in the Living Room helping mom put up the decorations.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Me: Oh. Okay.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Rita:  [off screen]  Hey, has anyone seen my plaid Christmas table cloth?

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;"> [Leni looks down and notices that she used the table cloth, then shushes Lincoln as she walks into her room.]

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;"> Eddy: Double D is downstairs in the kitchen helping L Sr. with the Christmas dinner.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">''Me: Okay. We were just about to head downstairs anyway.''

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Lori:  [on her phone, talking to Bobby]  "Oh, don't worry about buying me a gift, Bobby Future Hubby Boo-Boo Bear. I mean, sure, it's our very first Christmas together"  [split screen widens to show Bobby, Lori's voice is still heard over the phone.]  "and I'll probably remember what you give me for the rest of our lives, but no pressure." [zooms away from Bobby in the calendar section of the mall, holding two calendars. He switches his phone to his other ear.]

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Bobby:  [on his phone, talking to Lori]  "Right. Uh, no pressure, Babe." [chuckles and hangs up before falling on his knees and crying.]

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;"> [return to the Loud House where Lincoln is at the bottom of the steps. He pulls out two different boots out of a pile that are each one of his sisters.]

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;"> [Laney is seen in the Living Room writing a letter and Crysta is watching her]

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;"> Laney: "Dear Santa, I've been a very good girl this year and I think I should get..." Hmm... What do I want this year...? Ooh! "A new fashionable beret" ... No wait I already got that one. [Crosses it out from the letter] Maybe a... no got that too.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;"> Crysta: Asking for stuff from Santa must be tough.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;"> Laney: It sure is Crysta. I don't know what to ask for. I'm trying to think. [Me and Lincoln come down the stairs and Laney and Crysta come to us] Hey guys. Can you help me? I'm writing a letter for Santa, but I can't decide what should I get this year.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Lincoln: "Relax Laney. I'm sure you'll think of something.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Me: You've been awesome this year Laney. I have a feeling he will give you something good.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Laney: I have a feeling you're right J.D. Thank you.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Me: You're welcome. [to Crysta] Is this your first ever Christmas, Crysta?

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Crysta: It sure is. What is Christmas again?

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Me: It's the day we celebrate the birthday of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. He was born on December 25th the year Zero. I am a very religious person and a strong follower of Jesus Christ. [Scene transits with me standing under the cloudy sky with light rays shining through the clouds and the divine chorus of angels from Heaven sings as I stand with my hands in a prayer position and I have a halo over my head.]

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Laney: Wow. I can see that.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Crysta: Me too.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Lincoln: [Pulls out two different boots out of a pile that are each of one of his sisters.] Oops! Wrong ones!"  [throws the boots out of the way; to the viewers.]  "Excuse me. This might take a while."

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Me: No problem Lincoln.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;"> [Lincoln prepares to dive into the boot pile when Lola zooms in.]

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Lola:  [appearing very innocent]  "Hey there, favorite big brother! Allow me to dive into that pile of smelly sweaty footwear and find your winter boots for you. " [curtsies, then dives into the pile.]

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;"> [Lincoln looks on in confusion. Lola then emerges from the pile with two brown boots.]

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Lola:  [gasps for air]  "Here you are, good sir!" [puts Lincoln's winter boots on his feet.]  "Two big brother boots. Boy, these are stylish!"

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Laney: Wow, Lola. That's oddly nice of you?

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Lola: Why thank you, dear sister.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Lincoln:  [suspicious]  "Okay, what do you want?"

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Lola:  [quiet voice with an evil grin on her face.]  "To get a good haul from Santa." [normal voice]  "See, contrary to popular belief, I am no angel. So, if I'm going to get on Santa's nice list, I have one day to undo twelve months of naughty!"

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Me: Technically you already are an angel because of your powers.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Lola: That's true. I do have wings and I have done some good deeds but I want to undo all my naughty stuff.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Lisa:  [off screen]  "You're wasting your time." [wheels in a whiteboard with equations as she comes on screen and begins pointing to sections with a candy cane.]   "Factoring in sleigh speed, time zone changes, and reindeer bathroom breaks, it is scientifically impossible for this so-called  Kris Kringle   to deliver gifts to the approximately one billion qualifying children. As you can see, X equals no stinkin' way." [bites into her candy cane.]

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;"> Me: Actually there's currently 1.7 billion children around the world according to the 2016 census and the number is still growing.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;"> Lisa: Ah. You are correct about that. Thank you.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;"> ​Laney: [Gasps] Are you saying there's no such thing as Santa?

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;"> Lisa: Precisely.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Lola:  [growls]  "You're lucky I'm being nice right now!"

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Me: Don't listen to her guys. Of course there is such a thing as Santa. I've always known.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Laney: Really?

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Me: Sure. As long as you believe and have a strong faith. Also, lets just say that I've even met him personally myself along with several other children that didn't believe it at first.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Laney: [Shocked] You've met Santa Claus!?

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Me: Yep. Not to brag but I've had an awesome event happen to me back when I was 7. I'll tell you all later.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Laney: Okay.

A bigger fireplace."

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">I fire a rainbow stream and the fireplace grew to the size of a mansion grand fireplace. It was the same size as my Grand Fireplace in the main living room of my mansion.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Lynn gives me a great hug.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Me: [Squished] Don't mention it.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">She lets go of me.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Me: Gabrielle, this is for you.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Gabrielle opens the package and gasps.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Gabrielle: A music box. [It was shaped in the form of Planet Earth. She winds it up and it opens and it shows Terra, Lynn and Gabrielle in a crystal cave going around different areas and it plays Celine Dion's "My Heart Will Go On" from "Titanic"]

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Terra: That is so cool!

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Lynn: That is beautiful.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Gabrielle: love it!

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Me: I made it myself in woodshop at school before Christmas break. It took me 7 days to make it. What gave me the idea for it was when Terra and Lynn went into Journey to the Center of The Earth.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Gabrielle hugged me.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Gabrielle: Thank you J.D.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Me: You're welcome. Shannon, I got you this.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">I hand Shannon a big package and she opens it and gasps.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Shannon: It's a punching bag and it has a picture of the Black Daffodil Gang on it.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Me: I put that on there so you can vent out frustration on your old gang. Think of it as a stress reliever.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Shannon: Cool! Thanks J.D.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Me You're welcome. Linka, this is for you. But it's outside.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">We all head outside and Linka saw a tesla ball there.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Linka: Oh I see what I have to do.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Linka put her hands on the ball and channeled Lightning into it and fireworks went off and spelled a message in the sky. It said "Merry Christmas Linka from J.D. and Double D."

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Me: Me and Double D planned this all out for you.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Edd: It was mostly my idea Linka. I wanted to tell you that I did this gift all from my heart.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Linka: Oh Double D. I love you!

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Linka and Double D kissed.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Everyone: AAAAAAWWWWWWW!!!!!!!!

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Back inside I resumed my gifts for everyone.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Me: Lucy I have this for you.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Lucy opens my gift and it was a spellbook on Dark Magic.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Lucy: Gasp. It's a spellbook.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Me: Yep. I found that one and figured you might like it. I also have a poem written for you. Ahem. I call it: "Lucy the Dark Angel."

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">"You're as Dark as night, have hair like tar. And Sometimes we may forget where you are. You're an angel of darkness that killed Reverend Kane and some people may find that you are insane. But you are you. You are the only one who knows how to turn dark things into fun. So here's a poem for my very best friend. Who I will continue to root for and support until the end."

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Lucy had tears in her eyes and she ran and hugged me.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Lucy: Thank you 2nd brother.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Me: Anytime my Angel of Darkness. I also have someone here to see you.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">The door opened and in came Silas.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Lucy: Silas.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Silas: Merry Christmas Lucy. I brought you this. [Silas pulled in a handcrafted coffin.]

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Me: I helped Silas build that coffin for you. It's made out of mahogany and walnut wood and look on the side there. I added something special.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Lucy and Silas saw a piece of duct tape hiding something. They pulled it off and it was a skull with a black heart in the middle of it's forehead and it said Lucy and Silas forever in darkness in white letters.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Silas: Thank you J.D. If I had a heart, it would die with joy.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Lucy: Same here.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">For Laney I made this.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Laney opens up the package and it was a painting of all of us standing in the beauty of the curtains of the Aurora Australis over Torres del Paine in Patagonia, Chile.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Laney: J.D. this is beautiful!

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Me: I drew that in art class and I started it on November 5th and finished it on December 18th.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Laney: Thank you J.D.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Laney hugs me and I hug her back.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Me: You're welcome. Now for the twins. I made you each something. Here's yours Lana.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Lana opened her present and it was a picture of an ice castle in an ice cave with Elsa from 2013's "Frozen" and they are using their ice powers to fight off an evil army of Snow Demons.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Lana: This is awesome! I look amazing with Elsa!

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Me: I figured you and Elsa would be perfect. I made that image on the computer. Those snow demons you two are fighting are evil monsters from the Netherworld. There's a message on the bottom left.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Lana: "Lana, you are the strongest handyman I've ever known and you definitely can get the job done. Your love for animals is as strong as your heart. The Cold will never bother you as long as you believe in yourself. My little Handyman of Ice." This is awesome! [Hugs me] Thanks J.D.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Me: You're welcome. Now for Lola.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Lola sees that it's a picture of her with 2010's Rapunzel from "Tangled" and they are fighting Gothel in a Volcano field and using fire powers and a frying pan during the fight.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Lola: I look awesome fighting with Rapunzel! Princesses VS Evil Villains.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Me: There's a message on the bottom right.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Lola reads it

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Lola: "Lola, you are an awesome princess and beauty pageant hero. Keep winning all those beauty pageants and make all your friends and family proud and your tea parties will forever be awesome. My little Princess of Fire." [Lola hugs me] Thank you J.D.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Me: You're welcome Lola. Here's your gift Penny.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Penny opened her gift and she gasped.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Penny: A friend for Teddy! [It was a grey hand-sewed teddy bear]

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Me: I made it myself. Teddy looked a little lonely so I decided to make him a friend.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Penny: Thank you J.D. and Teddy thanks you too.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Me: You're both welcome Penny. Look on his left arm.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Penny saw a diamond and two mice under it and a message saying "Merry Christmas Penny from the Rescue Aid Society".

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Penny: I love it. Thank you. [She hugs me]

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Me: You're welcome Penny [I look at a hole in the wall and saw Bernard and Ms. Bianca and winked at them.] Lisa, this is for you.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Lisa opened a small package and it was a trophy and in it was a 14 karat gold class ring with the insignia for Michigan State University on it and it had an emerald stone.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Lisa: "And the award for Smallest Person I know goes to Lisa Loud."

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Me: I made that trophy in Ceramics Class and I bought that Class ring for you. Your fingers are too small now but you'll grow into it.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Lisa: Once again... [Bursts into tears and sobs again and I comfort her]

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Me: Let it out Lisa. Let it all out.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Lisa calms down.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Lisa: Thank you big brother unit.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Me: You're welcome my little scientist. Last but not least Lily. I have this for you.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Lisa opened a small pakage and it was a ring with the symbol for Gamora on it.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Me: That is a very special ring Lily. It's a back up call ring.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">?: It's used to call me.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Out of the shadows came Gamora from Guardians of the Galaxy.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Lincoln: Oh my gosh! Gamora the Most Dangerous Woman in the Universe!

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Lily: Wow! You're my favorite Superhero!

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Gamora: I'm glad I have some fans. Lily, you can now call me should you get in a tight spot. But only do so when it's like that. Just shine the ring up to the sky and I will arrive.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Lily: I will Gamora. I promise. [Lily puts the ring on her right ring finger and Gamora disappears]

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Raven: So the Marvel Superheroes are real.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Me: Yep. I found that ring a long time ago.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Lily got up and hugged me.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Lily: Thank you J.D.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Me: You're welcome J.D.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Everyone had some presents to give.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Rita: "Well, that's all the Christmas presents. Time to start decorating for Valentine's Day!"

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Lori: "Wait! I still have one more!" [shows her giant present she's been waiting to open.]  "I saved the best for last!" [shakes it]

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;"> [Everyone looks on awkwardly over what made that noise. Lori opens it up and reveals it to be her boyfriend.]

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Lori:  [gasps]  "Boo-Boo Bear?"

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Bobby: "I couldn't find anything good enough to buy you for our first Christmas together, so I decided to give you myself."

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Lori: "Ah. That's literally the perfect gift." [hugs him]  "Oh, I got you a present, too."

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Varie: Come on Bobby, I'll heal you up.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Bobby: Thanks Varie.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Laney: [Off-screen] Wait! There's something in my stocking! [Laney reaches into her stocking and pulled out a letter and she reads it.]

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">"Dear Laney, I've been hearing about what's been going on with you and your family. And I am very impressed. What you did was a very nice deed. And I'd like to say thank you for believing in me. I guess there's still a little holiday magic in your house. Even when I'm not there. Never stop believing in yourself.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Laney: Not a letter, Lincoln. A reply! I wrote him a letter saying what we did for Mr. Grouse! And by the looks of it, he's very happy!

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Lisa: "Indeed, Santa sure was good to us this year."

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Molengo,sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Lisa: "I didn't until I spied him leaving a present behind the couch last night." [shows a picture of what appears to be Santa labeled "SANTICUS CLAUSIMUS".]  "Behold!"
