December: Holiday Hijinks
The holidays are already crazy enough, let’s add something more to it. Are two characters fake dating for the holidays? Was one a catfish? Did someone have a prank go bad at dinner? Is a character trapped by a snow storm and they have to spend their holidays with their ex’s family? A world (or season) of possibilities at your finger tips!
