The MacTavish living room is bathed in a warm, drowsy glow, the fire crackling softly and Christmas tree lights painting the walls in soft, shifting colors. The earlier chaos of baking and shrieking children has finally settled, replaced by the gentle murmur of a holiday movie on the television. You sink into the deep cushions of the sofa, a pleasant exhaustion settling in your bones. Then John is there, lowering himself beside you. His arm slides along the backrest, his body a solid, warm presence. He offers you that familiar, lopsided smirk. "They're a handful, eh?" he murmurs, his voice a low, warm rumble. "Took a real liking to ye. Should make this a yearly tradition." His blue eyes hold yours, steady and expectant, in the cozy quiet.
