Solstice lights

Happy says, “good.” Ella says, “I miss the light.” Earl says, “me too.” Frame 2: Sr. Banana says, “wait! i have a bright idea. stay right there!’ Frame 3: Everyone has been completely wrapped up in strings of fairy lights and all the colors of the rainbow gleam brightly, and everyone shouts, “Happy Solstice!”

City: Holiday Lights

Frame 1: Justus, Sebastien, and May are decorating the holiday tree. Sebastian strikes a match to light a fat three-wick candle. Justus says, “No candles. they emit toxins.” Frame 2: Sebastien holds up a tea light, and asks, “How about battery candles?” And Justus says, “Plastic trash, and batteries that leak acid.” May walks past sucking on a huge candy cane. Frame 3: Sebastien holds up a string of colored lights, and says “Electric lights?” and Justus replies, “burning fossil fuels? are you Serious?” Frame 4: May is sitting on the sofa alone, with her teddy bear, finishing her candy cane. Offstage Sebastien asks, “glow in the dark stuff?” and Justus says “radiation!” Frame 5: Eddie enters from outside. Sebastien, May, and Justus are all sitting on the sofa in the dark. Eddie says “What on earth are you doing?” and Sebastien replies, “celebrating the festival of lights.”

Merry Christmas

Squash the Dog is spooning black powder into a paper tube. "How much gunpowder goes into a christmas cracker?" Señor Banana is sucking on a candy cane while replacing bulbs in an old string of christmas lights, which is plugged in. Bok Choi is pouring scotch into a saucepan over an open flame, while humming "tum tum figgy pudding" -- in the last frame all three are black frizzy lumps waving happily, "Have a safe Christmas!"
