Peter's Christmas
    TOS/AD
    A little over a year ago, I wrote a well-received story about a young man with a familiar last name, and his Christmas aboard the Enterprise. Tinged with sadness, the TOS crew do their level best to cheer him--never realizing that the demon that haunts him is no intangible. Even Peter doesn't realize that as bad as his life has gotten--this is only the beginning.

    Writer's note : I am also re-writing this to retcon with the later chapters of the story, which has evolved somewhat. In current continuity, it would occur between Chapters 3 and 4 of 'Paradise Lost', and just after my upcoming  story 'The Madness'
