FANDOM ADVENT! PART THE FIRST!

[my_own_advocate]

Hello, Fandom! December is back upon us, and you know what that means:

Fandom's going to start counting down for Christmas! Yep, one event, every day, until we're all passed out on a post-Christmas food buzz!

... or working because you're a freelancer and this is prime fill-in-for-easy-money season. ANYHOW. Here's your list of advent events for the first week of December!

Wednesday, December 1st: In every house, a cute doll appears. Maybe it's a fluffy cat, or an adorable reindeer. And they sing such adorable songs! ... Until you run them through Google Translate. Oof. That is, um. Quite some not-so-child-friendly material in Polish/Greek/Aramaic/insert-language-your-character-doesn't-know here...
Thursday, December 2nd: As always, the Coca Cola polar bears are coming to the island to bring all of you refreshing glass bottles of soda! Just don't try to feed any of them Pepsi, or they'll get rowdy.
Friday, December 3rd: Puffballs made of powdered sugar roll around the island, humming happy tunes and babbling happily in their weird, powdered sugar puffball language. They leave a fine spread of powdered sugar behind.
Saturday, December 4th: Everything seems fine? Except there's cookies and milk in every living- and common room across the island. Enjoy!
Sunday, December 5th: Fruit-shaped marzipan drizzles down on the island all day. Bring an umbrella.
Monday, December 6th: Tiny white horses invade the island, climbing on things and demanding a tribute of carrots and turnips.

See you next week for another advent update!

First Day of Advent brought to you by this weird-ass story:

Oldbies, think Toastie only in Czech :)

Pour one out for poor, dearly departed Toasty, who I'm pretty sure Aeryn probably crushed/"lost" around 2011.

Dwight is going to be perplexed by all of these.
Me however, I would LOVE a visit from the Coca-Cola Polar bears and I would be in heaven if it rained marzipan! And I would never say no to cookies and milk, though the mysteriously appearing bit would be cause for concern... XD

If your character understands every language, is there something magical preventing them from knowing what the singing (and puffball babbling) is saying?

NOPE. HAVE FUN, JON.
