Dammit, but a happy ever after should last more than a few months. Not that India and Tegan are thinking too much about the future - they're having far too good a time exploring, well, each other, and that idyllic life neither thought would ever be theirs. India's changed, so everyone is delighting in telling her, most with decided approval, and life is pretty much perfect - work they both love, a writer's cabin to call home, the intense thrill of their passion for each other - and no need to worry that Napoleon Fry, or anyone one else will ruin any part of it. But life's just not like that, is it? The shine isn't even starting to wear off when things go wrong. Not everyone is happy that India and Tegan are living in sweet lesbian bliss and not everyone thinks they should be left alone to wallow in it. Christmas is just around the corner, and its largesse this year is unparalleled. It's up to India and Tegan to decide if these forced changes are gifts, or just dirty lumps of coal.
