Christmas time is supposed to be fun, right? Parties, presents and time with the ones you love is all part of the holiday season. A time to relax, have a party and get all your fun in before the year ends. Well -- for me, Christmas is more of a minefield.

Sauced Up - A slang (or 'colloquial' for the more literary-minded) term for being drunk or high on illegal drugs, which many of the characters either are or wish to be. Also hinting at the 'saucy' and transgressive elements that fuel each story. Think smashed, horny, and shitfaced. Scarred - An insinuation in regards to the emotional state of the personas portrayed. An ill-intentioned wink towards the debauched and defaced world they inhabit. Think distressed, damage, and, perhaps most potently, disturbed.
