Everyone knows that Snow is terrible at handling his own magic. In one of the usual arguments with his roommate, Baz Grimm-Pitch, the Chosen One accidentally ends up turning the vampire into another (to some, much less threatening) creature. Fortunately, or not so, Simon won't need to wield his wand to bring his enemy back to human form; all he has to do is kiss you.
They haven't spoken in years, but Baz Pitch needs a date for a Christmas party and Simon Snow is in town. The point is that neither of them expects this reunion, nor the doubts and feelings that he can rescue.
Simon Snow never quite understood people's emotional baggage around Christmas. Whether positively or negatively, it seems that everyone has a strong opinion about the date and, for him, that was always a holiday like any other. Themed movies, typical food (when the Orphanage I was in received a more generous donation or since when the Wellbeloves began to spend their holidays) and decorated rooms. I mean... it's nice, but nothing special, right? This year, though, he's agreed to spend the holidays with Baz and maybe he'll finally have the opportunity to be swept up in the Christmas spirit... Or The unplanned follow-up to "In Every Christmas Carol".
The son of renowned Principal Pitch has always been a musical person, performing at Watford recitals with his violin from the time he was old enough to hold it. What most people in the Mage world might not realize, however, is that there was as much fire in Baz's veins as there was in his magic... (Or: The one in that Baz has a rock band)
Baz always knew that Simon Snow was the protagonist of the story. What he's not sure - but hopes so, with all his faith - is that his adventure epilogue is just the first chapter of a narrative with a happy ending.
Simon is having a nightmare. Not exactly an unusual scene at the top of the Mimic Tower. Baz has seen moments similar to this a million times over the years he and Snow shared a room, but for some reason tonight it seems impossible to turn away from him and ignore his rapid breathing and his whimpers.
