A little seasonal Snape/Hagrid story, prompted by a comment in Rexluscus's LJ. She was talking here about how seeing all the secret santa requests saying things like "no necro and no scat" cracked her up, as if that's all anybody would write for holiday stories if they weren't instructed not to specifically. She wrote: "I've been extra good this year, Santa. But just so you know? I'd prefer that you not send me shit in a box this year. Thanks!" So. Comment-fic that got out of control.
