Description The French shouldn't be too hard to deduce. Baby, it's cold outside...

On the plus side the cold snap lead to a very pleasant afternoon of mulled wine and small talk with the whole cast over at the boy's apartment, from which a tittering and rosy-cheeked Eponine dragged James away quite early. Yet despite the presence of mistletoe and a somewhat alcohol-mellowed Sarah, Jareth did not leave his room to join the company, if, indeed, he was in his dead-silent room. Although there were some raised eyebrows at this, the fact that Nanny Ogg was part of the cheerful gathering may be the simpler explanation.

Actually, it would better translate to: "Why is it so cold?" But frankly, both work.

Jareth just misses oppurtunities left and right. OR he spots them and the fail-field takes effect. Either way, the guy has a hard time winning.

I love Christine's face! That is the EXACT expression I make when I become cold.

Aw poor Jareth couldnt get his party on. :/ That sucks for him. I'm such a wuss with cold, i'm a California chick without the stereotypes. I'm practically impervious to heat but not cold at all. Great job Pika.

Nanny Ogg is not part of a cheerful gathering--she is a cheerful gathering. If she stays in one place too long, it becomes a permanent cheerful gathering.

The woman wields terrifying (-ly cheerful) power.

Awww, poor Jareth >.> Sarah, you should have been a polite guest and kept him company, and if something smuffy (smutty-fluffy) happened for the good of the story and 'ship, so be it XD

Scumble keeps a man warm at night. But as Nanny Ogg would no doubt point out, so do many other things...

A sparkly snowy cold outside seen thru triple-paned windows of a warm room with a roaring fire and filled with friends, love and Christmas joy. Add mulled wine, scumble--mostly apples!, plenty of mistletoe and Ms. Ogg: What fun! Joyeux Noel. Mlle. Rebecca.
