This was priceless! And definitely something I can see them doing. Absolutely love it.

never too late to bring holiday cheer. jolly good fic!

Hi! I really liked this story! I love it when you write about El and Sands because you really make them come alive in ways that most people can't. You have an amazing talent that shines out through your writing. I'm so glad that you do write these stories because they always make me happy when I read them. Just the other day I got to thinking about this one part in one of your stories and I just had to go and read it, but I couldn't remember which one it was so I ended up re-reading the ends of all of your long stories. I really enjoyed it. You bring out emotions very well in your writing. Keep it up! You rock!

You have a gift for making things demented, even things like Christmas, or Christmas hats, as it were :)

Only you, Miss Becky, could pull it off so nicely. Thank you for sharing.

*laughs with glee* This was GOOD! *in a low booming voice*

And as for El running out of holidays... I do not think so. As far as I recall, there are a whole horde of Catholic holidays (mostly dedicated to various Saints) that people do not celebrate that much anymore but I can just visualize El researching them in order to find more reasons to... well... accost Sands.

Just gotta love Sands and El.

Aww what a lovely little Christmas pressie! And an early one too! Thanks, Miss B! :D It's awesome to see our delightful duo back together again beneath your quill. :D Thanks again!

-Merrie, your fan, as always. :)

it's great seeing another piece from you! As usual I really enjoyed this thanks you

Oh, yay! Wow, that was fast, too. Well, I'm very grateful; when I saw the alert for this in my inbox, I felt all warm and fuzzy inside. And if you desire a fic in return, just say the word. Your Christmas wish is my command, mi amiga. :-)

Niceties aside, this fic is just adorable. There were so many lines that I loved that made me laugh out loud. These parts were my favorites:

“'I like to be mysterious.'”

Bwahahaha! That's the Sands I know and love. Gosh, I missed him.

"'Gracias,' the contact said. 'Feliz Navidad.'

'Go fuck yourself,' Sands said. He drew his gun and shot the guy."

I love how bluntly stated that was. Great stuff, really.

"'You look stupid in that hat,' El said.

'Then take it off me,' Sands invited."

Kinky. ;-)

You always characterize Sands perfectly; he is such a badass, but like the Grinch, he has got a little bit of heart somewhere in there. I enjoy the love-hate dynamic between him and El, too. The bells were a nice addition, since Sands is always hearing bells. Yes... all in all, a lovely fic. Feliz Navidad, indeed. ^_^
