Harry Dresden

Raye Hino: A smooth obsidian stone carved with tiny, delicate-looking runes. When it's moved it looks as though liquid fire is moving just below the surface.

Kamina

What the heck is Christmas? This shirt is kinda cool but it looks like somebody left the fingers off these gloves.

Skeletor

He doesn't blast Janos with the Havoc Staff today. But he might have just been busy.

[Well, that was that. All his presents were delivered and he'd had a good chuckle at Ruby's gift, shaking his head at the point starry hat before setting it on a high shelf on his bookcase. Even the Ice King's picture had found a spot on his icebox (heh).

Now, he had another stop to make and he pauses before picking up the flowers he'd purchased for this next trip with a heavy sigh. He'd see his friends later, but right now, he had something else to do.]

[Except his door only gets about halfway open before it hits something with a thud.]

What the hell?

[He tries a couple more times before poking his head out and looking around... and then down.]

Oh my, I forgot how lovely this tasted... and how dizzy it could make me feel. [Milla drank her liquor alright. It was nice to sit down at a restaurant and eat, but now she had to go back to her hotel and she was... stumbling about more than she'd care to admit. But trying to stay standing was a good distraction at least - she didn't think of Jude or the others so much.]

Come on now, Milla... you can still make it home...! [And cue a slip.] Whoa--! [She lands in a snow bank, but instead of getting up she just kind of lays there. It's amazing how she's able to keep from freezing in her outfit.]

This snow is very comfortable! But cold. Very cold. [She pushes herself up and staggers to her feet. It was about that time she realized that she wasn't sure where the hotel was.]

[Merry Christmas, Harry! There's a festive Met at your door with a little Santa hat on.

It's even got a sticker that says;

"To: Harry Dresdon.

From: Albert W. Wily."

It's going to look up at you with it's big robotic eyes and... Shoot a laser blast at you.]

[Albert who?]

[Suddenly a laser!]

Holy crap!

[Harry Dresden springs into action with reflexes honed by years of battle! He expertly jerks his head back from the door, whacks it against the door frame and falls backwards onto his ass.]

Son of a bitch!

[He rubs his head for a second before realizing that the door had swung open and that there were currently no explosive wards between him and the little homicide-bot.]

Crap! Riffletum!

[He throws his left hand up, bringing an invisible half-sphere shield into existence in front of him. Hopefully just in the nick of time before getting his head shot off.]

[You get to keep your head today Mr.Dresdon, however, the little machine is going to charge and tackle your little shield. Well it's more of a headbutt seeing as it's body is all head.]

[There's a flash and sharp crackle when the force of the Met's tackle hits the shield and the kinetic force is converted to light and sound harmlessly.]

Oh, screw this. Malivaso!

[He tosses his right hand forward when he casts that spell, gathering the energy around him that caused technology to fritz out and focusing it into a sharp blade and casts it straight at the stupid little robot jerk.]

[...Well. You win this round Mr.Dresdon. The machine does indeed fritz out. Don't mind it as it lifelessly stumbles over.

Way to break your Christmas present.]

[Oh, good, it's dead. Harry grumbles a little and gets to his feet, rubbing his head where it smacked the wall, and nudges the robot with his foot and pulls the sticker off its head. Wily, Wily... where had he...? Oh, right, Haircut. That explains that.]

You'd think I'd start expecting this kind of crap by now. [And then he turns his attention back to the downed bot.] And as for you.

[And a few minutes later the Met is deposited in its final resting place: the dumpster out back.]

[What a day. First, he wakes up in the middle of the night in a panic because somebody broke into his apartment only to find freaking Santa Claus in his bathroom installing a whole new shower system. Then he wasn't even able to leave the building without getting shot at by some lousy robot.

Well, at least the rest of the day had gone pretty smooth. Now all he wanted to do was head home, crack open a beer and read a book.

Except it looked like that wasn't going to happen either, when he catches sight of a familiar mass of blonde hair attached to a woman stumbling along the snowy streets. It looks like his work is never done.]

Hey. [He calls from the window, bringing his truck to a stop across the road.] You doing okay over there?

[Well, where else would everybody from Remnant come to celebrate the holidays but ~~the Yangcave~~ but Team RWBY's apartment? Talk about some sudden last minute preparations, yeesh!]

[But the tree's set up, the presents are out and everything's ready for the mob to descend.]

[OOC: A member of the RWBY cast? Get in here! An honorary member of the RWBY cast? AKA somebody with CR with one of these crazy kids who got invited? Get in here too! Everybody's welcome!]

[Have Nora show up with a bag of (hastily purchased/made) gifts and some cookies on a plate.]

Hi Girls!

[Cookies? What cookies? Ruby may have already started eating those. Regardless of whether Nora's still holding the plate or not.

She's in much better spirits than she was when Nora first arrived.]

Mmmm.. Ooooh. These are good.

[Hearing Harry's voice, she looks over to his beat up old truck. Giving him an uncharacteristically judgemental looking-over, she huffed.] Okay? I am more than 'okay' Mr. Dresden. I am the great Lord Maxwell. Something like this doesn't faze-- [She trips and falls into the snow face-first. Soft landing, but she's effectively silenced.]

[Pushing with her hands, she lifts her face from the snow, all snow-beareded and everything.] I am unwell, Harry.

[Harry just raises his eyebrows a little when Milla starts off on her tirade. Wait for it... waaaaiiit for it.

Fwump! There it is.]

You don't say.

[He opens up the door of his truck and climbs out to walk over and offer her a hand up out of the snow.]

Looks like the great Lord Maxwell had a few too many tonight.

[Jaune naturally arrives with Nora, and when Ruby zips on up to start munching down those cookies, she actually startles him.] Bwah! Oh, jeez, can't you wait for even a second?

[He sighs and turns his attention towards the residents of ~~the Yangcave~~ the apartment with a wave.] 'Sup?

Betelgeuse really didn't think he knew anyone well enough to exchange gifts with them. Then again, living people were odd creatures and you never knew what to expect from them. So, Betelgeuse has nicked gifts from a home or two or so and ripped the tags off. If anyone seems to want a gift from him, they can have one, but he has no idea what is inside the packages. He also doesn't much care.

[She takes his hand and climbs out of the snow towards his truck, though she points up at his face, because while she's not short, he's very tall.] You don't know what a Maxwell even is. [How astute.] And I only had one. It was most of a bottle, but it was... just... one.

I'm sorry you have to see me this way. It's... far from a first impression I'd want to make.

Touche.

[He'll walk along with her, making sure she's good and steady on her feet and also gently lead her away from the driver's seat and around to the passenger side.]

Don't worry about it, it's not the worst first impression I've ever seen. Or made for that matter.

[He pauses for a second, frowning a bit and a second later, his big coat drops over her shoulders.]

Here. You've gotta be freezing dressed like that out here.

[Milla's hands clutch the coat around her shoulders as Harry, ever the gentleman, drapes it over her. It's heavy - she respects that. It's almost like wearing weighted clothing, a concept she figured acted almost like an every-day endurance test. But it's also quite warm, and she's grateful.]

You needn't worry about me, Harry... I don't get cold that easily. But I admit... Without Efreet it's much colder than I would like. [Once they got to the passenger side of the vehicle, she climbed in. That's when she realizes that she's never seen something quite like that before. A truck? Where she came from, there were no trucks. Sure there were boats and air ships, but no trucks. She slides her hands along the dashboard with way too much interest, leaning forwards to study the material it's constructed from.]

My goodness... I've never seen something quite like this. It doesn't seem to run off of spirit artes, nor do I sense any Spyrix technology... Just how does this contraption move? Fascinating.

[He's supposed to give gifts to people, right? Well..he didn't have any idea what to give people. So he just shows up there with some fruit baskets for people ~~if they are stolen or not, he's not telling.~~

He drops them off near the tree, and there are names written on them. They felt a little impersonal, but what else could he do at the last minute. He swipes a banana from one of the baskets after dropping them off, though, and proceeds to peel it.]

Maybe, but you probably get cold easier than I do now.

[Nope, no further explanation of that one is coming, he just closes the door once she's in and heads back around to the other side and getting into the driver's seat just in time to see her looking over the dashboard.

Wait, can it be? Somebody actually admiring Harry's piece of crap truck?]

Mostly by burning more gas than I like to keep track of. You know, the American way.
