It was tough work making room for this; Laura had decided to head back for college to get herself a degree, so between classes, cramming, and getting food, she had a really hard time making room for this.
But finally, after setting a weekend aside, and going through crowds of Christmas shoppers, her and her daughter Cera. Even though they were probably still a bit of a strange sight, especially since Cera insisted on taking her present box with her, they still stood in line as if nothing was wrong.
"Mama?" Cera asked. "When's Santa gonna talk to us?" "When he goes through to everyone else." The girl pouted, glaring at the people in front of her, as if that would make them go faster. Or better yet, just leave the line. Laura chuckled. When the girl wanted something, she wanted it now.

Cody shoved through the throngs of people whenever they got in his way. There was absolutely NO way he was going to admit that he had gotten lost within the massive crowds. "Stupid people..." he muttered, glad that he possessed some sort of stealth skill. It helped greatly when he slipped around crowds.
He stopped suddenly as he found himself facing a giant line of parents and kids, all waiting for something involving a chair and a tree. Wait... Santa pictures and such? It would have perked his interest more if the "Santa" sitting in the chair wasn't a complete fake.
Scanning the line for the possible end, his eyes chanced upon a couple. A mother and daughter duo waiting somewhere near the middle. Now, he would have just passed over them, had he not noticed the prominent greed traits within the girl. Why did it seem like everyone else possessed more of Drake's features than he did? It didn't make sense at all...
Slowly, he moved closer as if to get a better look while completely oblivious to how he was no longer surrounded by people and in full view of the other spawn.

Cera took a bit to notice the other spawn, but when she did, her eyes lit up; he had wings too, like the others! She pulled out of her mother's grip, and ran right over to the spawn, trying to look him in the face. It wasn't really working, though.
Laura was surprised when Cera pulled away, before seeing the spawn. She waved back to her daughter, trying to call her back. That wasn't working either.
After a few seconds of trying to look in in the eyes, the spawn girl simply said, "Hi."

Cody stared back, shoving his hands loosely into his pockets as the girl gave him a simple greeting. "Hi," the spawn copied, wondering what the girl's virtue was. He really needed to get out more or at least visit the varying angels and demons so he didn't have to guess and pray he was right.
"What's your name?" he questioned, curious as to her name. "People call me Cody. I assume you're waiting in line for... ah, Santa?" he added, eyes darting over to the line and the massive display. If only they weren't made of cardboard and covered in shiny paper and glitter...

"Cera..." She looked at his wings, and frowned again. It really was no fair at all. She wanted wings too! And what were those fluffy things he had on him. "Yeah... mama says that I can ask him for stuff." She wasn't sure what to ask him. Could she only get one thing? Of course, she wanted wings more than the world, so she would be asking for that no matter what... but what if she could ask for more? Maybe more Hello Kitty stuff? That would be good for her collection.

Cera... It was kind of funny how both of their names started with a 'C'. Cody nodded and shuffled his wings slightly as someone brushed past behind him. "Mm, yeah, you can since he can somehow brings gifts and such to all the kids in the world," he replied, thinking it would be just as easy and twenty times more fun to just steal the items.
"I suppose you want to ask for wings or something?" he continued, noticing how her gaze continually wandered to his wings and that same envious look creep into her eyes. He had seen it before and he figured he would see it again, seeing as wings were what everyone wanted nowadays...

She nodded a bit, before asking, "Why do people give up stuff?" She never understood it; why give up something so good, when you could keep it for yourself? It just didn't make any sense? Why not just keep those dolls, or toys, or cookies, or jewelry, or... anything like that? She just didn't get it.
She seemed really surprised by this, and nodded. "Y, yeah!" How did he know? She couldn't tell. "Fluffy ones, in pretty colors..." She smiled at the thought, not even thinking of flight with them. The idea was just a beautiful thing. She didn't get why all the others like her had wings, but she didn't.

"They give it up because they don't know the true value of having said items? I don't know exactly how other peoples minds work and the very idea of giving up things sounds like a horrid idea," Cody replied with a scowl. Sure he didn't mind receiving gifts, but the idea of giving things away was just... unthinkable.
"Feathery rainbow wings?" he suggested, finding the rainbow idea kind of random. Then again, he had seen someone with rainbow-y wings so the concept wasn't exactly unthinkable. Where exactly he had seen them, he wasn't entirely sure. Maybe there was a cartoon with some sort of rainbow-winged fairy or... something. Meh, whatever.

"Yeah!" She pouted. "I don' get it..." Though, things were always very nice, and if they didn't want it, she was more than happy to take it for herself. No backies, though.
She gasped, and nodded. "And, and maybe they sparkle?" That sounded wonderful to her; Flying through the clouds on feathered wings, which sparkled in every color. She clapped her hands together. "That's what I'm gonna ask Santa for, then!"

"Neither do I," Cody replied quietly, figuring he would ask his mom when he went home later why people gave away items so freely at times. As he had said before, it was just the most weird thing ever to concept.
"Good luck, then," he continued, unable to help the slight smile that rose to his face at her excitement over such a simple thing. At least, to him it was relatively simple. She just looked so cute, all happy and excited it was hard not to.

She nodded, waving to him, before going back over to her mother, who worried over her for a little bit before standing back in line as if nothing at all had happened. She wasn't kidnapped or anything, right? So, no harm done.

Cody frowned slightly as she wandered back to her mother, contemplating on following. As of recent, he and parents didn't exactly mesh... Specially his own and those of "good" little kids. Not to mention he didn't exactly like all the people and parents in line.
Not like standing out in the middle of a crowd was any better...
