[draws herself a hot buttered rum and pets a certain beagle, who looks very fetching in his snowman sweater] I brought chocolate peanut-butter chip cookies. Dig in, Folks. The co-op had a sale on the chips, so I made plenty.

[shakes hands all around] Mazel Tov, Ladies. HWW, remember that it's okay to dunk when you're around friends.

Cramer, how lovely to see you. There are several musical groups playing at various times and places, so I'm sure there will be something to your liking.
And Cleome! I knew you wouldn't be long. A happiest of holidays to you! And thank you so much for the cookies. Cookies are my favorite Terran dessert!
Derek, Greg, please get Ms. Cramer and Ms. Cleome their libations.

At first, I thought you said it's okay to be DRUNK around friends. Either way works for me.

Well, you may if you want to, but I was talking to the scantily-clad waiter over yon. Of course, if you'd like to serve drinks wearing only a Santa hat, French cuffs, a bow tie, shorts and boots, HWW, feel free!

I'll pass on the costuming, but I don't mind getting anyone a drink.

Ah, what the hell. Anyway, they were using this for commercial breaks on Adult Swim but I had no idea it was real until I looked it up on youtube. It's an 8 bit version of "O Christmas Tree" made up entirely of video game sounds. It was made by Rush Coil. It can get a bit annoying, mind you. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kTbRB4VGxt8

Hmmm...this could be awkward.
I am inhabiting the body of one of my soul's descendants and attending a celebration thrown by that descendant's current lover.
Somehow, it is even more awkward because the conflict that necessitated my presence has been inexplicably intermitted yet still looms indefinitely. Because of that uncertainty, it seems imprudent to return the host soul to its home. So I am familiar to them but a stranger as well.
Oh well. It just seems rude to alienate myself during a time of great celebration, so...
<raises a glass>
Greetings, friends! King Lardi of Atlantis wishes you all a festive holiday!
Still "Lardy" to my friends!

{Rockhopper Lad, knowing this moment would come is, at least outwardly prepared. He bows slightly}

You are a gracious host, Prince Eudyptes.
<closer, lowering voice>
I apologize at the awkwardness of this moment, friend. I am quite alone in this strange new world and, admittedly, sought this opportunity for some companionship and diversion. However, say the word, and I will make my stay a short one with no enmity felt.
Still "Lardy" to my friends!

By your leave, Sir, I do have to attend to my other guests, but we shall converse anon.
Ah, Arachne, I'm so glad you could come. I see Huey has seen to your beverage needs already. Please let any of the waitstaff know if you would like anything else.

[sits up on comfy couch, rubbing eyes]
Wow! What a great night! I even remember some of it. Good thing that I drank all that water and aspirin before turning in. Almost no hangover at all!
[feels around for wallet] Hmmm... It seems lighter. Oh, yeah. We sent out for pizza around four AM, and then we took up a collection so that Stealth and Deidre could honeymoon in Vail.
[stretches] Time for a quick shower and change of clothes before I have to set up the brunch. I wonder if Rocky's up yet?
[covers Lardi, who's sleeping on the neighboring couch, with a comfy throw before tiptoeing out]
