Tummy
Right, "tummy." What would you like me to bring you for Christmas?
I want a new bike a huffy with the wheel pegs in monster green, and a Nash skateboard... but not a the stupid pink and blue one, I want the one with ghost rider on it, and A Lucifer's "Little Devils" play set with the candles and the magic sand with extra stencils please cuz I keep messing up the drawings and crossing the salt circle . And my summons keep not working.
Ok I ll get the elves right on it and we'll see what we can do. Is there anything else?
Could you make my dad come home hea been gone since Samhain. He missed Halloween.
Well tummy that's not really something I can make in the workshop, but I'll see if there something that can be done. I might know someone who can see where he's been or knows where he'll be. Now run along. The other sacrificials need there turn talk to me, and theres so many good boys and girls to see. Don't forget to Mark the list in blood before you leave or else I might not remember to bring your toys on Christmas Eve.
Bye Santa!
(Eyes redden, cheeks sallow, as he hisses quietly, his forked younger flicking once between his teeth) GOODBYE TUMMY ILL COME TO COLLECT YOUR DEBT IN A FEW YEARS. Then jollily, "Until then, be a good boy Tummy, and have a good Christmas! I'll delivery your terms upon the hour heretofore agreed.

Sarah Beth Marie...
Have you been a good girl this year?
I have Santa! Mom says I've been the best little girl I could ever even be.
Well let's check the record, oh my... now is there something you should tell me?
Well I was bad one time this summer when I pushed my sister out of tree.
Well that's not very nice thing to do.
I thought she might fly like a baby bird, I saw it on tv.
