Series: TCR
Rating: G
Genre: Uplifting Christmas tale!
Summary: Years after Jon's death, Stephen is still celebrating Christmas with extravagant and overblown decorations, but he doesn't truly understand the spirit of the season until a succession of ghosts arrives to show him.
I wrote this story in '06, and rewrote it in '07. In between, TCR got Eliza, who is so quintessentially Dickensian that I would have rewritten it just to include her.
( 'OXFAM,' he repeated to himself. 'They sound familiar. Are they affiliated with NAMBLA?' )
