Daffynition: Hot cross buns.

It would take a lot more than just three ghost to reform the little cretin.

That was a close one.

Glad to see that Jarvis is back, none the less for wear and tear, after his experience in the Santa trap.

In the Mirror Universe, Sedgie is a thoughtful, giving child.

For a minute there…….no, of course not.

Yes, a transformation into a real boy.

Sedgewick does not have that burning desire to change yet.

Ignoring the "Never Trust A Far-! " adage, can produce an unfamiliar warmth…briefly.

Merry Christmas, All!

Well, there’s always next year…

Now we know where Sedgewick’s heart is.

Did he almost make an ash of himself?

Surprised Aunt Nell allows Sedgie to be there in just his pjs- seems like she would insist on a robe! Merry Christmas to all you Sedgewick and Jarvis fans!

Or a hearth attack.

His teddy bear is stuffed with $100 bills. :)

We couldn’t have that now, could we Sedgie? May your day not include a scorched tuchus.

When I was young, and heating was sparse and expensive, I used to sit on the radiator until my backside got too hot to continue, After it chilled down, I’d perch on the radiator again. This practice I renewed when I was overseas as a young man (not military) and winter heating in that country was minimal….

We had a heat radiator in the floor where we lived for a while that I would stand on. It was so hot that it would burn X marks on the bottoms of my shoes. Dad would tell me “not to set the cat on fire”. Mom would “hurumph”. I was like Huh?? I didn’t understand what was going on. Hahaha! Now I know that Dad was a hoot!
