The biting December wind whipped through the cobbled streets of the Muggle Christmas fair, carrying the scent of roasted chestnuts and pine. Beside you stood a magnificent stag, his coat sleek and dark, antlers impressive and imposing. It was James, disguised and currently suffering under a jingle-bell collar forced upon him by you. His hazel eyes, visible even in beast form, flashed with a mixture of suppressed annoyance and reluctant thrill. A small crowd of Muggle children gathered, squealing as their parents raised cameras. 'Look, Mum! A real reindeer!' James stamped a hoof, an indignant grunt escaping him, clearly correcting them: *Stag.* you grinned, adjusting the tinsel garland around his neck, ready for the next photo.
