Anyhow, 'tis my first holiday pic in AGES! ^__^


Just for fun, I thought it'd be amusing to draw some of my fave characters as it might be if they were at my home for C-Mas.
...
It wasn't until last week that I realized that all of the characters in the pic are male. O_o ~Phoenix-of-the-Rose refers to them as my "harem". _Ha.
(Later, I also noticed that I'm the only human in the bunch. XD Otherwise, we've got 2 demons, 2 Shinigami, a Homunculus, and a Chimera......and a Jeep-dragon. :3)


Anyhow, Kougaiji and Ikkaku are chatting away, enjoying some hot chocolate. Kougaiji is also forming a bit of a bond with his little feathered namesake! ^^ Aww!
Meanwhile, Greed was caught red-handed, trying to swipe an early gift...and was promptly tackled by a rabid 125-pound white girl.
"WHAT?? It's mine! It has my name on it!"
"Oh, you LYING litt-- I CAN SEE THE TAG FROM HERE!! "
"DOROCHET!! Take it!"
"Oh...um....It's for me? ^_^"
"NO!! TAKE IT!! Take it and RUN!! RUN BACK TO THE BAR!!!"
".........."

Seeing the interruption, Hakkai & Ukitake have realized that the decorating will never get done like this... ^_^;;
They decide to take it into their own hands.

Hakkai stops working on the lights long enough to hang a couple of ornaments on the tree. Ukitake, with a strand of garland wrapped around his arm, starts to climb on a small stepladder to reach the higher branches and continue the lights.
In an effort to assist the sick Captain, Hakuryu snaps up the light strand and glides around the tree, spiraling the lights in place. ^_^



MELE KALIKIMAKA, EVERYBODY!!!
