I'm too lazy to put this in another format, but girlie decorated again. Here's a vague description taken from an IC scene post!
For someone with no life outside of the Chantry and minimal transportation into the outside world, Shoshannah has been remarkably difficult to find of late. During the eight nights of Channukah, the menorah that appeared on the mantle was lit every night, and it's since been removed and put away to make room for a more traditional Christmas sort of decor.
She hadn't been lying in the slightest when she told Connor that she liked to decorate. Shoshannah is a girl who thrives on pretty things, and she has remarkably good taste for her age. Unfortunately, her remarkably good taste also isn't cheap, so anything big she wants to do takes place in stages.
And so the stockings are hung by the chimney with care, one for each Awakened person she knows in the Denver area, whether or not she's seen him or her at the House. There's a tree, and goodness only knows how she wrestled the giant tree into the corner where it stands tall and full, skirted and everything. (In all likelihood, she got Sid or Kalen, or both given the sheer size, to help her.) This is where she's found, with music playing on the stereo - traditional hymns, mostly, but the occasional pop tune fits in here and there - as she flits here and there, too and fro, adding holly berries or strings of popcorn or lights or decorations . . . like Halloween, Christmas isn't a halfway thing to her. She may have more personal connection with the more spectral holiday, and more religious connection with the Jewish festival of lights (Pan, Sid and Kalen all received little presents outside their room all eight days - little bags of gold and silver-wrapped chocolate coins, dreidls, and so on), but Shoshannah is an equal opportunity interior designer.
