rewatched prancer (1989) which means i am craving plots where conrad is injured/in need of assistance and your youthful muse must hide him from the parental unit. also willing to accept a grown up muse hiding him from parent/spouse/landlord.

What are the BatFamily’s favorite Christmas movies?
Let me preface this by saying I do not deeply know all the Batfamily members. So I will not be including everyone. I hope that is OK.
Bruce: It depends on the timeframe. I truly believe broody, I work alone timeline; Bruce does not watch Christmas movies. He is in his emo phase and wants no joy. However, when he finally gets therapy he probably is a classic Christmas movie fan. I could see him enjoying the Rankin-Bass movies.
Cass: This might seem stereotypical, but I think Cass’ favorite holiday movie is The Nutcracker. I don’t believe it is any Hollywood-produced ones though. I believe she has a recorded version of a live performance.
Tim: I see Tim as a feral gremlin. Therefore I see his favorite holiday movie being Home Alone. He has wanted to out some of the traps. He won’t because it will make Bruce frown, but he has thought it out thoroughly.
Barbara: Barbara strikes me as someone who likes easygoing Christmas movies. It is a time for her to relax and decompress. So her favorite is probably Mickey’s Once Upon A Christmas, it is mostly feel-good. Plus she likes the music.
Harley: I feel like Harley likes the weird holiday specials. Therefore, I could see her favorite being Grandma Got Run Over by A Reindeer. She loved the original song and the movie is just batshit crazy enough to make her laugh.
Jason: Jason is a classics nerd so his favorite is almost certainly A Christmas Carol. He says it is the Disney one because it is so close to the book. However, it is actually A Muppet’s Christmas Carol. He likes how the songs add to the story. Plus, it makes him laugh.
Dick: I think Dick’s favorite Christmas movie is Miracle on 34th Street. He thinks it is so heartwarming. Plus the vibe seems to fit it. It also makes him cry every time.
Selina: I’ll be honest I’m not really sure about Selina. Part of me thinks she isn’t particular about holiday movies. However, I do think she would love the option for a movie night with her “kittens”
Alfred: Alfred is a classics person. He likes It’s a Wonderful Life. It is cozy in his opinion. He has it memorized by this point. 
Duke: Duke is more sassy than people give him credit for. He is also more chaotic. Therefore, I think he would enjoy comedy holiday movies. His favorite is probably National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation or A Christmas Story.
Damian: Damian doesn’t much care for holiday movies at first. He finds them quite silly. However, there is one he watches religiously and that is Prancer. Dick was the one who suggested it because he knows Damian loves animals. Damian said it was ok, but Dick saw how close he watched it.
Kate: OK I feel like Kate is a spooky chick at heart. Therefore, I fully believe her favorite Christmas movie is The Nightmare Before Christmas. It is just the right amount of edge and holiday joy. 
Steph: Steph is another one who strikes me as kinda feral. I want to say she likes Home Alone too. However, I could also see her loving Home Alone 2: Lost in New York more. Only for the fact that it gives her and Tim something to debate about.

merry christmas to those who celebrate. have some debauchery on the house.
✨ reindeer post-job shenanigans ✨
it's a long night for everyone, and the whole sleigh crew gets back cold, hungry, and exhausted. they just need something nice to lift their spirits, you know? here's how you can help each of them, should you find yourself into a position to do so:
✨Dasher ✨ - usually gets delegated all the leadership jobs when Rudolph isn't there, and returns obscenely stressed every single year because of it. she's really not cut out for this job, but her name comes first in the lineup so she's stuck with it. she probably won't even want anything really, just snuggle up to her and tell her she did a good job – she needs to hear it. put on a movie or something, make a warm dinner, and put your arm around her and pepper her with gentle kisses. she'll fall in love.
✨ Dancer ✨ - limitless ball of energy. she spends the night entirely just hyping Dasher up enough to do her job, and she's still absolutely pumped afterwards. whatever position you end up in, she's probably doing all the work in an attempt to tire herself out, but she never seems to be able to. do some stretching first, it's gonna be rough and hard and will probably leave you gasping and bruised, but she'll be reassuring while she rails you senseless.
✨ Prancer ✨ - doesn't really want to be there either, but is fine with it. really is just chill as hell. she likes to show off her partners, so expect to be displayed on a pretty leash or railed in front of the others fairly often. she also tends to be down for whatever on your own time, so if you suggest something she'll probably try it out with you, in front of everyone, of course, since she just likes to be around you (and in you. preferably in you.)
✨ Vixen ✨ - she may be the most overtly feminine one on the crew, but don't be fooled by that. her job requires strict discipline, and she'll hold you to the same standards, whether it's brusquely making sure you've eaten enough and hydrated that day or it's learning three new commands a session and practicing all the previous ones until you don't even have to think about it anymore. when you say that makes you feel like an animal, she smiles and says it's hotter that way. lean into it for her.
✨ Comet & Cupid ✨ - they do pretty much everything and everyone together, and you're no exception. they may both be goofballs who can't stop joking around the entire time, but that won't make it feel any less good for you. whether it's both ends or both in one, they will both be involved at once, and it occasionally does get competitive as they fight to see who can make you enjoy it more. really, they're here for your pleasure, so don't be afraid to tell them what you like and they'll try to do it!
✨ Donner ✨ - scary as shit. like, fur dyed black, horn piercings, threatens to crush elves under her hooves if they get in her way scary. she will most likely seem initially standoffish to you and graduate to just being fully mean. if you cry during it, she will find that attractive and keep doing whatever made you cry. multiple safewords are almost definitely a must if you like any form of cnc so she can casually ignore the first one. you will have to tell her every time you fuck to put her knife collection away. you're pretty sure she has murder charges. she might cry afterwards though. just hold her and tell her you had a good time and she didn't hurt you that bad. affection is hard for her.
✨ Blitzen ✨ - spends a significant amount of time blitzed and is also absolutely massive. if you ask her nicely she will shotgun weed with you. she'll actually probably do it if you don't ask either, just be careful kissing her before you end up higher than the sleigh. very very into having you sit in her lap, she loves how surprised people get when she stiffens under them. she knows her size, and she's really gentle, but it's still a lot, so just be safe. she understands if you can't fit her, but that's ok! she'll be plenty chipper regardless! aftercare for this is probably gonna be a warm bath or some kind of massage to put your guts back where they're supposed to be. she's also the switchiest, and would probably enjoy being tied up by you or by her teammates. (especially bc she's so much larger than them it's the only way they can handle her) good luck.
✨ Rudolph ✨ - very confident as the team leader and nowhere else. he spends most of his time hiding from the girls when they're not pulling the sleigh, not because he doesn't like it but because he has actual jobs that aren't taking reindeergirl cock to the base 24/7/364 and he literally doesn't have time for all of them. he'd be happy if you'd take some of the strain off him, and would find some innovative ways to reward you if you asked.

Did Henry Push Scott Off Of A Quarry In Nevada?
So, in TFS, it’s mentioned that right before the Creels moved to Nevada, Henry had ended up putting a boy in a wheelchair (Walter presents it as if Henry just broke the boy’s arm, but then Virginia expands on it & says that he put the boy in a wheelchair).
And people seem to assume that Henry attacked the boy the same way that he accidentally attacked Prancer- but this is never confirmed, and I’m actually wondering if Henry pushed the boy off of a quarry in Rachel/in Nevada, especially since there ARE quarries there.
And I’m staring directly at the Mike-Scott parallels & at Troy urging Mike to jump off of the quarry & that being the scene where El breaks Troy’s arm (which, again, Walter says that Henry “broke a kid’s arm” in Rachel), and the fact James pointed out to me that Hopper and Callahan talk about how you’d “break every bone in your body,” if you fell off of the quarry and I’m also staring at George Burness in ST claiming that he jumped off and survived vs the “George,” from the TFS auditions…
And Nightmare On Elm Street: Dream Warriors is on the S4 board- which, in that movie, there’s a kid named Will Stanton, who ended up in a wheelchair because he “took a jump,” seemingly to try and kill himself, but Will himself refers to his injuries as an “accident,” which, in TFS, Victor refers to Henry putting the boy in the wheelchair as being a “mistake.”
And I don’t know about you, but when we look at Will Stanton, the dark hair and general look really reminds me of Scott- and even though Scott doesnt have those glasses, Fred from ST4 does, and like I’ve talked about in other posts, Fred has Scott parallels.
Tumblr media
Will Stanton is also a DND nerd, just like Scott.
(And he also has this whole Kali and El butterfly scene esque scene, but that’s a whole other can of worms)
Tumblr media
And re: the boy being Scott, Scott isn’t in a wheelchair, obviously, but we don’t know if the boy that Henry put in a wheelchair was in a wheelchair permanently- it couldve just been temporary, as you can’t really use crutches for a broken leg if you also have a broken arm.
And we also dont know if the wheelchair incident happened before or after Henry got flayed- i wonder if it was part of it, if there was a cave near a quarry & some sort of accident/fall happened or something, i just. Hm.
Anyway! Many thoughts.

Christmas sucks and dad killed Santa (chapter 2)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Finally we were home after a mediocre dinner at Dennys. I drag my feet as I enter the threshold of the house. I'm the last to enter and the last to get my pajamas on. I may be an adult but I still wear onesies. My pjs of choice are a pink rabbit with a white tail. It resembles the one off of a Christmas story. It was mom's favorite movie of all time so I wear it Christmas Eve each year to honor her memory.
I lean into the doorway of Charlie's bedroom. Dads reading the night before Christmas and Charlie has just about a million questions.
"When out on the lawn, there arose such a clatter, l sprang from my bed to see what was the matter away to the window I flew like a flash.With a miniature sleigh and St. Nick and Prancer and Dancer and to all a good night." Dad recites the book, practically from memory, as he had since I was Charlie's age.
"What's that?" Charlie questions our dad.
"What's what?" Dad asks, clearly confused.
"A rose schuck ladder!" Charlie says with wide eyes.
"It's not a ladder. He said, 'arose such a clatter.' It means, eh, 'came a big noise.'" I clarify.
"What?" Charlie scrunches up his face still confused.
"Charlie, ‘arose’ is a word that means 'it came’, and 'clatter’ is a big noise." I reiterate.
"Yes and now it's time to go to bed" dad agrees as he tucks Charlie into his bed.
He turns to me and takes in my pajamas and holds back a snicker.
"Gotta problem with my duds old man?" I joke at him.
Charlie giggles and snuggles in deeper into the covers.
"No problem at all, squirt. Just makes me think is all." Dad replies with a small, sad smile. Tears are brimming in his eyes that threaten to spill.
"Come on, let's get to bed! If we want Santa to come we need to be asleep!" I usher dad out and into his room and walk to mine.
Soon I hear a gentle knock on my door just as I'm ready to snuggle in.
"Sissy (y/n) can I sleep in her with you? Dads snores too loud and I can hear it through the wall!" Charlie practically wails.
I know he just wants to make sure I'm ok but I pretend to buy it nonetheless.
"Come on sport! Let's snuggle and fall asleep to some nice music." I say swooping him into my arms and sitting us onto my queen size bed. Too tall for him to reach on his own without a stool. I put on some Mozart and we drift away.
(TIME SKIP BROUGHT TO YOU BY RED RYDER BB GUNS! YOU'LL SHOOT YOUR EYE OUT KID!)
I am abruptly woken by Charlie shaking me. This is not what I signed up for when I said he could sleep with me.
"(Y/n)! (Y/n)! I heard a clatter!" Charlie yells.
I slowly open my eyes and ask "What? Charlie, what are you talking about?
"You know! From the story! It came a big noise. It's coming from outside"
I start to say it might be the wind until I hear a loud noise too. Kinda like a ka-thump. The the sound of boots on the roof. I jump out of bed taking Charlie with me. I run as fast as I can to dads room.
I practically take the door off its hinges. My heart is pounding out my chest.
"Dad you gotta get up now! Someone's on the roof!" I say setting Charlie down rushing to his bedside.
"What (Y/n)? Someone on the roof? That's impossible. You probably dreamt it. Go back to sleep." Dad begins but gets cut of by more footsteps. Now he's wide awake.
"I guess it wasn't a dream dad," I huff at him
"Now is not the time for the sass (Y/n), someone's on our roof. Come on we'll go outside. Put on your shoes and coat quickly!" He says while pulling on some socks while quickly hobbling to his bedroom door and down the stairs.
I pick up Charlie again because I know I'll be faster carrying him than waiting for him at the bottom of the flight of stairs.
Throwing on a coat, boots and a winter hat onto both of us with Charlie still holding his blanket.
I rush out after dad and Charlie follow suit.
Dad yells something I can't make out to the person on our roof. Suddenly they slip and plummet onto the lawn as I quickly shield Charlie from the sight.
"Oh my gosh! You killed him!" I yell running through the slushy snow to where the man lay. However, all that was there was his clothes.
"You got him!" Charlie cries out, running, and nearly tripping to get to me.
"I did not! He's gotta be here somewhere! Let's check for some Id to see who this poor shmuck was." Dad argues now riddling through the pockets of the red coat.
"That almost looks like-" I start
"Look (Y/n)! Reindeer!" Charlie interrupts me pointing to the roof.
Lo and behold eight reindeer and a sleigh are parked on our roof.
"(Y/n) come here! I found something!" Dad calls after me.
I approach him and take a small business card from his gloved hand.
"lf something should happen to me, put on my suit. The reindeer will know what to do. What does that mean?" I read from the card and inquire to dad.
He shrugs and Charlie comes to us. "That means you gotta put it on dad!"
"No we are not going anywhere!" Dad asserts poorly.
"We never do what I want to," Charlie says, his eyes watering.
I hug him from behind and glare at dad .
"Look! The rose schuck ladder! Like from the poem!" Charlie beams at both of us.
"I'm going to call the police, please watch your brother for a minute (y/n)." Dad pleads and scurries off to get his phone.
Before I can even blink Charlie is now on the roof trying to touch a reindeer. I follow after him in a hurry.
"Charlie! (Y/n)! Get down from there! I thought you were watching him!" Dad yells at me. It's a miracle the neighbors haven't woken up.
"Dad, it's amazing! Come up here!" I yell down at him.
He runs to the ladder and climbs up, suit in hand.
"You need to get away from ghost things! They could have key lime disease!" Dad panics as he walks carefully towards Charlie. "Easy Rudolph" dad says to the reindeer.
As clear as day the reindeer says "I'm not Rudolph." I look to my dad to see if he also heard but he's just looking at its nametag.
"It's Santa's sleigh!" Charlie jovially says while climbing into it.
"There's no such thing as Santa's sleigh" dad scoffs.
"Sure there is. You said you believed in Santa, right dad" I nudge him.
"I did" he questions then covers his tracks with "I do!"
Dad climbs into the sleigh and I follow him. The seats are much softer than they look.
"Hey dad look! A hat!" I say pulling a plush Christmas hat from in between the cushions. I gently place it on my head after inspecting for lice. It's warm and cozy. The ear flaps are extra padded with faux fur.
"Oh great you found a bug infested hat! Oh how joyous! Let's get out now please" dad practically pleads with Charlie.
"No!" Charlie shakes his head making his hair get in his eyes.
"Come on Charlie! Let's go!" Dad pushes.
Suddenly the reindeer take off. I guess I'm in for one helluva ride tonight!

Val's December Drabbles Day 4/25
Tumblr media
The random word generator gave me Comet for today. For those keeping score, that's two reindeer in a row. Not sure how the algorithm is even able to do that, and it was super tempting to skip it and pick another word, but I'm stubborn, so this prompt wasn't going to win out over me!
“He’s quite rude, isn’t he?” Henry says, the rumbling of his voice making Alex shiver as he lies on his chest. “Who?” “Comet,” Henry explains, as if the answer was obvious. “Rudolph’s difference doesn’t make him any less adept, and frankly advanced, at flying.” Alex turns to the TV with an amused smile. “I still can’t believe you’ve never seen this movie.” “If I were Rudolph–” “You have been Rudolph, sweetheart. Your light has always been brighter than the world you were born into was ready for.” Alex feels the light press of lips to the top of his curls.
Day 1: Merry Day 2: Punch Day 3: Prancer

Last year, I was threatening to write a meta series on mothers in classic Christmas movies, but other things got in the way as this is Things Getting in the Way of Plans Season. So, let's try this again.
To recap from last year, most of the mothers in my favorite Christmas movies have one important thing in common: they're dead (Prancer (1989) and the House Without a Christmas Tree (1972). When they are alive, they are often stay at home moms (Christmas Vacation (1989), A Christmas Story (1983), The Year Without a Santa Clause (1974) and probably more that are slipping my middle-aged mind). The first mother I want to talk about, though, is none of these things. Jon Favreau's Elf (2003) is a new classic that draws heavily on much older Christmas classics made by Rankin-Bass with one notable exception. Emily Hobbs (Mary Steenburgen) is a working mom who provides an example of the kind of work/life balance that alludes her husband until the end of the movie.
The first time we meet Emily, she is hearing for the first time about something Walter (James Caan) has been grappling with for two days at this point: he has a son from a previous relationship who believes he is a Christmas elf. Emily handles this news with surprising optimism and is nothing but generous and kind to Buddy. In some respects, this puts her in company with other Christmas movie moms whose main job is dealing with the fallout of their husbands' choices with as much dignity as they can manage. What makes Emily different is that it is not only her family that benefits from her accommodation of others. When Jovie sings "Santa Clause is Coming to Town," Emily is the first person to join her. Although both of these women have been drawn to Central Park in the same way--seeing people they care about on the news--there is no indication that the have met or that Emily is able to identify Jovie as Buddy's date from earlier that evening. Emily just sees a stranger in need of support and gives it to her.
There is a limit to Emily's accommodations, though, and she is as admirable for what she will not do as what she does. When Walter suggests that she stay home with Buddy, she refuses: "I have a budget meeting tomorrow." Although we never learn exactly what Emily's job is, it is taken seriously enough that Walter does not press the matter any further. She is still the person who does the most domestic labor, but when her husband takes his share of the dinner she has prepared to eat in his room, she lets her son know that is not acceptable behavior. "It's no secret that you haven't really been there for [Michael]" she tells Walter later. Unlike other Christmas moms, she does not accept that it is her job to run interference between her husband and their child. If Walter wants to repair his relationship with Michael, that is up to him.
Elf's representation of women is pretty solid considering how few of them there are in the story (I recently learned that Wanda Sykes was originally cast to play Buddy's manager at Gimbels, which no doubt would have been delightful!) I want to comment further on Jovie and Buddy's relationship, but that is a subject for a different post. It is worth pointing out that when Buddy visits the North Pole with his family at the end of the movie, he is holding his baby daughter for the entirely of the scene, showing the audience a final time the importance of balancing roles in a relationship. Although she is not one of the more dynamic central characters, Mary Steenburgen gives a portrayal of a mom who is kind, generous, and strong all at the same time. Christmas moms have come a long way since Rankin-Bass!
