Summary
“How about a bet?”
Keith paused.
“If I can make you fall in love with the holidays by Christmas night, you’ll take the shift.”
Keith snorted, turning to face Lance. He kept that vaguely annoyed smile on his face, but nothing could hide the gleam of interest in his eyes.
“You’re not going to make that happen.”
“Okay,” Lance shrugged. “Then what’s the harm of taking the bet?”
Keith’s eyes rose to the ceiling, thinking.
“And,” Lance rushed in, “and I’ll sweeten the deal. I’ll work New Years as well.”
Now that got Keith’s attention.
They had drawn straws for who would work New Years Day weeks ago. It was one of the worst shifts for a toy store. Being deathly hungover while listening to kids scream and toys screech was the stuff of nightmares. Keith had lost and was stuck with the shift.
A slow grin tugged at Keith’s lips. “You’re insane.”***
When Lance gets stuck with the Christmas shift, he immediately turns to Keith, a self-proclaimed Scrooge, to cover the shift. When Keith refuses, Lance offers up a bet. If he can make Keith fall in love with the holidays before Christmas, Keith will take the shift. Nonsense straight from a Hallmark movie follows.

Summary
Ghost ends the Infection much earlier, leaving Hallownest with something of a society that must now pick up the pieces. Catastrophic resource shortages, an unstable political landscape, and a population scarred by plague leave every able body stretched thin. Still, Hornet is grateful for her mother's presence, something she never thought she would have. This is, of course, complicated when a chorus from Pharloom attempts to capture a weaverling. With the weavers as a whole too injured to run, and no longer able to hide, a new solution must be found: diplomacy.
Pharloom is starved for Silk, as it always has been. When a chorus returns, bearing news of Mother's wayward children, Lace expects things to stay the same. Unfortunately, these stray weavers are guarded by a Wyrm, and Mother is reluctant to challenge another higher being in her diminished state. However, she cannot simply let her children go. Diplomacy is the only option.
