November/December/January holiday post. Here are some ideas:

• snow: first snow of the season/ever, making snowpeople, forts, or snow angels, snowball fights, snowed in
• warm: hot drinks, warm blankets, crackling fires, busting out the winter coats and socks, baking in a cozy kitchen
• holidays: decorating, picking out a tree, preparing the big holiday meal, exchanging gifts
• activities: shopping, cooking, sledding, ice skating, cuddling with someone special
• new year: par-tay!, toast, countdown, midnight kiss

The Fae are very different from vampires. The Fae live only as they are and can build a society around that idea. They know what they will be when they are born. It makes things different, easier to build a society around. It's much different for Hai's kind. Creatures who can be created anywhere. And while they could put some time and effort into finding and bringing together many of their number, it's as Hai said, it would be difficult to maintain. Besides, most just want to be left alone and to be allowed to govern themselves. Hai is one of those.

"It isn't too personal." For Iseul. Were anyone else to ask, he would politely refuse to provide an answer. People don't deserve to know the ins and outs of his life just because they thought to ask. Iseul is not one of those people, however. "I wouldn't say I was chosen. It's more that I was a convenient meal for a desperate creature. I was a mistake made by a starving vampire."

Something hot flashes through Iseul's eyes. A mistake? How dare Hai characterize his history and being in such a way! If not for this careless, starving vampire, they wouldn't be here dancing together. They would not have shared long nights over the chessboard trying to best each other. They would not have played their games and made each and every move that brought them to this very moment.

"Fate makes no mistakes."
