The lights came up on the stage, revealing Dionysus dressed in a robe the color of a lush forest, hanging loosely enough on him that his chest was bare. He sat surrounded by an enormous pile of food--roast turkeys and pigs, massive bowls of hot stew and soup, mounds of apples, pears, oranges, and cakes, all of them festooned with ribbons of holly and mistletoe. Around Dionysus' bare feet was a huge collection of liquor bottles, and right at his elbow was a huge silver punchbowl filled with steaming spiced wine. He poured himself a cup (and snuck a healthy shot of brandy into it), and turned to Hades with a wide ruddy grin. "Scrooge! Come in! Come in and know me better, dude! ...Man. Dude-man."
