mindcrackloveFirst off, happy holidays everyone! I hope you're enjoying yourself. :)
Here's the first part of your Secret Santa gift, Snarky. It's in multiple parts because reasons.

'Hey Etho...' Whispered a clearly excited voice. 'Do ya' wanna come and help decorate the tree?'
He ignored the voice and tightened the wrap of blankets around him.
'Etho...' The voice quietly chimed. 'Are you awake?'
'No...' He groaned, turning over away from the voice. He heard quiet shuffling coming from behind him, but ignored it in hopes that the voice would leave.
There was a near silent giggle before Etho felt a cold liquid trickle into his ear. His eyes flew open and his body shot up into a sitting position. Unfortunately with less control as he had been encased in his blankets, he flailed about in the mixture of sheets and blankets, entangling his limbs even further as he tried to balance himself.
Etho's sudden and graceless reaction sent the nearby figure into hysterics, leading Etho to recognise the voice. He shook his head and growled as he turned to the figure.
'Pause!' Etho swung his fist at the half stood figure by his bedside, who stumbled back and clutched his soon-to-be bruised arm.
'Ow! What did you do that for?' He grumbled, taking a cautious step backwards.
Etho's heavy eyes drifted and settled un-amusedly on Pause, whose expression changed to one of timidness. He sat up and peered over Pause’s shoulder out the window.
'It's the middle of the night!'
'Uh, early morning actually,' Pause said matter-of-factly, pointing into the air. '2:15 to be exact.'
Etho only managed a few stammered noises in confusion before placing a hand on his ear.
'What did you put in my ear?'
'Night vision potion.' He smiled. 'Don't worry, it's mostly harmless, I've tried. You might get a headache for the next couple days though, but you'll be fine.'
'Pause.'
'Yeah?'
'Why did you wake me up at two in the morning?'
'Huh? Oh yeah, me and Beef are gonna go decorate the Christmas tree in Spawn Town, I wanted to see if you wanted to as well.'
Etho frowned. 'What, now?'
'Yeah now.' Pause replied excitedly as he began to hop from foot to foot.
'But it's snowing! And 2 A.M!'
'Yeah, so?'
'2 A.M.'
'So?'
'You're insane.'
Pause seemed to ignore the comment and briefly look around the lightless room before turning back to Etho. His lips parted slowly into a cheeky smile.
'Where's Nebris?' He grinned.
Etho growled, his hand gripped his pillow and threw it straight at Pause. Who easily avoided it by ducking.
'Get out.' He grumbled.
'Why?'
'Because it's 2 A.M!'
'Okay, okay fine. Have your sleep.' Pause turned with a pleased giggle and left.
With a groan, Etho flopped back down onto his bed and pulled his blankets onto his face.
~~~
Etho scrunched a handful of snow into his gloved hands, with an eye on Beef who was packing the last of his pranking supplies into the ender chest. He smirked and glanced to his side at Pause who held a ball of snow ready to throw.
Pause grinned and counted down in a whisper. 'Three... Two... One, now!'
'Hey guys, did yo-' Beef turned from the ender chest just in time to see two spheres of white come hurtling towards him, they both landed accurately on his chest and knocked him to the snowy ground.
Pause and Etho burst into laughter at the look of surprise on Beef’s face.
'Oh, you think that's funny?' Beef sneered as he began to stand, scooping some snow into his hands as he rose. 'So, is this funny?'
Beef flicked his arm forward and not a second later the soft ball of ice hit the side of Pause’s face, sending him off his leaning perch on Etho's shoulder and stumbling backwards. This made Etho laugh even harder. So much harder in fact, he didn't notice Pause gather some snow into a ball and chuck it at him.
This halted Etho's laughter and sparked the laughter of other two.
'Snowball fight!' Pause exclaimed chucking a messy handful of snow at Beef.
‘Hey! I was going to get Etho!’
‘You’re going to get nobody!’
A flurry of white. Ten minutes of snow and shrieks, they eventually collapsed at the base of the nether portal, soaking wet and shivering.
Pause pulled his Santa costume over himself and shivered. ‘We… We should never do that again...’
Beef chuckled, placing a hand on Pause’s shoulder, he smiled. ‘This is the third snowball fight we’ve had this week and that’s third time you've said that.’
