Carlton was all dressed up in his Christmas outfit his granny had made him. He was
so proud of it. The bright green sweater with matching pants was his favorite thing to wear. Not only was the outfit in his favorite shade of green but it also had little bells sewn onto it. Plus, this year his granny had sent him a green Christmas hat to match with a loud golden bell at the end of it. His sister said he looked like an elf, but that was a silly thing to say. Carlton looked nothing like Schmoops or Pips.
Jingle, jingle, jingle
He was so proud of his little bells and the sound they made when he pranced down the corridor. But then something else reached him... Voices. Carlton stopped, lifted his hat from his ear so he could properly locate where it was coming from. Then he ran towards it.
"Christmas carols, christmas carols, christmas carols!"
Carlton rounded a corner and found the little trio of singers. He bounced with hapiness when he saw that professor Stewart was also wearing a Christmas hat. A red one and not a green, but it looked dashing either way. He bolted towards her and the two students he'd actually never spoken to directly. He skipped, bounced and ran towards the three of them waving to them. All the excitement!
Jingle, jingle, jingle "Professor! Professor Stewww....." Quote:

Considering that it was the holiday season, it was expected that the elves were extra busy...therefore, the took the liberty to clean up the ward himself.
With a mischievous grin on his face, River got out of his office with a cup of hot tea in his hand, and hid behind a wall to listen to one of his colleagues singing. The man took a peek, and his grin turned into a smile when he saw who it was. Surely, Cami wouldn't mind him singing along, yes?
River flattened his back against the wall, and kept himself hidden from the carolers. This...should be fun!
As they started off with the song, River tilted his head from left to right, and tapped his foot following the beat. "Meowmeowmeow...meowmeowmeowmamaaaooo..." What? Cats can sing too, did they know? The man pursed his lips to prevent himself from laughing, and would supply the second voice whenever he got the chance.
Was that... A cat? Or Peeves playing a joke? Carlton stopped abruptly, frowning.
Whaaaaaa....
"... Meow?" Was... Was he supposed to meow back? Crazier things had happened at the school than cats singing along to Christmas carols.
Here, kitty, kitty, kitty!
Carlton beamed at the professor.
"There's singing cats!" Carlton wasted no time.
"We should answer them!" Jingle bells was great and all, but a choir of singing cats? That had to be the best thing this Christmas.
