286:Vacation

Author Notes
Needless to say, Christmas is going to be, uh… fun?

I mean, what IS Aiken waiting for? Is he waiting for his chance to strike? Or maybe mulling over a way to apologize? Or maybe he still hasn’t figured out what to think? Thoughts are totally welcome.

And just so we all know, there’ll be a short hiatus at for a little bit into the new year. Chapter 13 will begin on January 7th, 2013 (just one week). It will be the Christmas chapter (somewhat ironically, as it’s already over in real life now). Unlike the Halloween chapter - which I tried and failed to line up with its respective holiday accurately - I wasn’t really trying that hard to synchronize things this time. Still, I hope no one gets too disoriented by Christmas in the later Winter months.
