Adventure 23 | [Video, forward-dated to Dec 24]

[The video feed opens to reveal Arthur in his mall Santa suit and Granny Curry in her new hat, a canary yellow felt toque trimmed with black currants, black velvet ribbon, and a pair of green feathers that looked like antenna off to one side. In other words, she's got a fancy old lady hat going.

You're in for a musical treat tonight, network, because the Currys have chosen to regale you with a Curry family tradition--the singing of Christmas carols! They're actually pretty good, seeing as how Arthur used to be an entertainer on a cruise ship, and Granny used to perform on vaudeville.

They'll move through a selection of classics: "Jingle Bells," "Silent Night," "Joy to the World," "Santa Claus is Coming to Town," and "We Wish You a Merry Christmas." Unfortunately, Arthur being Arthur, he suddenly gets distracted in the middle of that last one.]

Hey, Granny, what IS figgy pudding, anyways?

I think it's pudding with figs in it?

[Granny Curry sounds very thoughtful here.]

Unless the figs are a cunning ruse.

Great Scott, but why would you want to pull a cunning ruse over on someone who was nice enough to go caroling for you?

Perhaps they're engaging in a little Christmas espanol, if that's the word I want.

[No, Granny, that's not the word you want. Espionage, maybe...]

So figgy pudding's really MEXICAN FOOD?

(This is a joint post with [personal profile] pokebonnet, so expect replies from her or Arthur! Italics are Granny, bold is Arthur.)

It's quite exemplary!

And a fantastic tradition!
