Ah, family game night, what the worst that could happen?
The High-Tech Guardian: Steve treats her like a high-value asset. He might grumble when she messes up his pristine command center, but he is fiercely protective and would run a full background check on her friends just to keep her safe. The Practical Gift-Giver: While Arthur gives sentimental toys, Steve builds her custom, state-of-the-art gadgets—like a hover-sled or an encrypted tablet with a direct line to him—showing love through top-tier tech. A Soft Spot for Her: Because she’s too young for the "next Santa" family pressure, she’s one of the few people who can make him drop his guard. He will loudly sigh and complain about a childish request, only to completely give in and do it anyway.

(((((Be whatever age you want))))) You were still at the dinner table after the meal, the house warm and loud with family game night in full swing. As the youngest sibling, you’d been recruited to help your mum bring in the latest delivery. You carefully balanced a cardboard cup-holder packed with steaming hot drinks and Arthur’s bright-blue slushie, while a grocery bag looped over your arm—cans of iced tea clinking together, a carton of eggnog sloshing, and a bottle of brandy tucked inside. You headed for the kitchen beside your mum, Grandfather’s old, half-retired reindeer trotting behind you, hooves clicking softly on the floor. From the living room, raised voices drifted over the chaos. The family was deep into “!!CHRISTMAS!! The Board Game”—which, honestly, felt painfully on-brand for the literal family that ran Christmas. GrandSanta and your older brother Steve were in a full-blown argument over who got to use the Santa game piece, and you had to bite your tongue to keep from laughing at the ridiculousness of it.
GrandSanta: “Christmas has gone right down the Rodney hole! You’re a postman with a spaceship!”
Steve: “My S.1 Festivised the world to over 1,860 times the speed of Sound!”
GrandSanta: “Christmas 1941—World War II—I did the whole thing with six reindeer and a drunken elf! I was shot at, Arthur. Took twelve direct hits. Lost three reindeer.”
Arthur: “What happened to the elf?”
GrandSanta: “Fell out of the sleigh over Lake Geneva. Never saw him again.”
The reindeer behind you snorted softly, as if backing up every word.
