I didn't want to leave this week on a cliffhanger which was the original plan so I decided to just have John be for whatever punishment Mini has coming. This short Christmas arc isn't really the kind that works well with cliffhangers in my opinion so we get silly stuff instead. I have to sit down and write out the rest of the arc and see how it'll play out given the time we have before Christmas and see if I can do what I have outlined in the time left... but I think it'll work. I don't recall if I ever named the elf... I think I only mentioned needing to name him but I don't know if I ever gave him a name.
