Hi, /ztg/! Falke here with some Christmas comfy. Hope you're all having a good holiday.


>Apart from the kitchen, the only sign of life was in the huge number three barn, four soaring stories high. The central section of its doors, where a second set of hinges allowed them to swing more narrowly, were propped open despite the cold, spilling the bright of worklights into the cleared lot.

>Inside it was immediately warmer, thanks to the quartet of heavy wood burning stoves that were wheeled out and run every season, hooked into a set of built-in flues inside the barn shell and surrounded with benches for mammals who wanted to warm up.

>And now, instead of the well-packed dirt floor that Nick remembered, a herringbone pattern of red and brown brick spread out under their paws, carefully edged around each of the building's post footings.

>Judy crouched down to run her paws over the fresh groutlines. She was fascinated - but then, she would have had even stronger memories than him of the way it used to be.

>"It's louder," she said, her ears swinging around the space.

>"Are you sure that's not just all the mammals?" Nick asked. Everyone who wasn't in the kitchen seemed to be here, finishing seasonal repairs and cleaning across every part of the barn's cavernous interior. He estimated there were at least a hundred workers busy at different tasks around an enormous stack of farming gear in the center of the space, a soaring pile of tools and equipment that was waiting for permanent storage.
