Awen Moonshine has already decorated a lot of christmas trees in her life and now that experience pays off. The bauble looks great on its new spot and as the branches bend a bit under the added weight, they reveal 15 icicles.

MissLlamaness watched everyone place their ornaments with varying success and learns from other people's mistakes. So the ball ends up on the tree without any problem. When MissLlamaness returns to the box she discovers 5 icicles where the ornament had been.

Witchchylde treats the ornament like a raw egg, and that was probably a good idea. After all it would be a shame to break such a pretty thing. But now the ornament graces the tree with its present. The international association for bauble rights rewards Witchchylde with 10 icicles for her careful handling.

Merskelly Metalien now already knows how to defend a bauble against natural enemies. So when another carp perks its head out of the water, the fish decides against an attack. Who needs to eat ornaments anyway when there's underwater kelp pizza delivery. 10 icicles are delivered with the pizza, and since the carp doesn't know what to do with them, they now belong to Merskelly Metalien instead.

mdom feels herself naturally drawn towards the rainbow and thus treats the ornament with extra care. She even wraps it into a slip of protective paper, but once the ball hangs on the tree, the paper falls off. Mdom is just about to discard it, but then notices it's actually a raffle ticket.

Biomecha walks towards the tree when she stumbles over a pile of snow. Who the %$@! puts snow into their living room? Frightened Biomecha watches the ball fall from her hand. Another desaster? The ornament dashes against the tree. With sheer luck it gets stuck there. But the case of the mysterious snow still remains a mystery. Biomecha decides to investigate, and since every Sherlock needs a Watson at their side, she forms the evidence into Chad the Snowman.
