All RP taking place in and directly around New York City goes here.
For mental reference think modern day NYC.

Peter Parker crawled across the ceiling of his apartment in Avengers Tower. He stretched his arms down to place a shiny star at the top of an enormous Christmas tree. He plugged it to the rest of the lights, and waved to Mary Jane. "Kay' babe hit it." Mary Jane plugged the lights in, and the entire tree lit up. The sparkle of the ornaments and tinsel made the tree shine like an emerald. Peter fell from the ceiling and flipped to land on his feet, right next to Mary Jane.
As he put his arm around her neck, she said "Remind me to thank Tony for this beautiful tree."
"It's only beautiful cause of you..." Just as Peter was saying that his Aunt May walks in with an arm full of presents. "...and Mrs. Clause here. More presents? You know you spoil me don't you?" He finished as he hurried to help her with them. She handed him the presents. He gave them a little shake and acted like he was trying to hear what was inside. "I love it when you spoil me."
"Oh I'm sorry Peter. These aren't for you..."
"They're not?" Peter interrupted, but Aunt May continued.
"They're for that nice gentleman, Mr. Jarvis."
"They are?"
"Yes they are, that man has done so much for everyone here, I thought that he deserved a little something to show our appreciation. I'll get your hindendo or whatever tomorrow."
He knelt down to place the presents under the tree. "Nintendo? What do you think I am, 8? I want the Playstation 3." Peter retorted.
Mary Jane pulled hi aside. "Come on tiger. Come have some of this cider with me and let Aunt May rest." She led him to the balcony with her arm around his neck. "Honestly, she just shows up and you ask her a hundred questions about presents."
"She knows its all in fun." He placed arm over her shoulders as well. "Isn't it great MJ?" He said as he took a cup of cider from Mary Jane. "I actually get to be home on Christmas for once."
He took a sip of his cider, and Mary Jane hugged in closer. But all Peter could think of was, Why did I say that? That always makes something go wrong.

And then the doorbell rang.
Matt Murdock waited on the other side, humming the tune of "We Wish you a Merry Christmas." He was really excited to have dinner with the Parkers. He thought he remembered Peter mention something about visiting someone afterward, but he wasn't sure.
((That something could be the Santa Spidey that you mentioned in the OOC chat, Lob, I guess))

"Companyyyy." Mary Jane said melodically as she rushed to answer the door. She opened the door and saw Matt on the other side. "MATT!" She squealed and hugged him with a kiss on his cheek.
"I knew we shouldn't have put that up there." Peter joked, referring to the mistletoe hanging above the door. "Merry Christmas Matt. Hope your hungry." He rubbed his belly. "I think Aunt May was planning on feeding China."
((We don't have to do the spidey-santa thing. I was just trying to think of a way to get more involved in the RP. We'll see what happens. Oh and feel free to RP Mary Jane or Aunt May.))

"Why, hello, Mary Jane!" said Matt enthusiastiacally. "Peter," he nodded toward Peter. "How are you?"
Matt shut the door, then allowed MJ to take his coat and lead him into the room. It seemed as though this Christmas was going to be a fun one.
((Are we going to be waiting for any more guests, etc.?))

Aunt May walked backwards out of the kitchen carrying a huge turkey. "Umm, Peter a little help please."
"Wow, no problem." Peter scooped one hand under the tray and reached with the other like he's going to snag a piece off the turkey. "Let's lighten this bird a little."
"Peter." MJ Scolded and slapped his hand. "Can't you behave for 5 minutes."
May whiped her hands on her apron, then undid it. "Matt, I didn't here you come in." She finished taking off the apron and folded it over one arm. "How are you? So happy you could make it." She held her arms up and offered a welcoming hug.
((I dont't know lets RP the get together and see what happens. Don't be afraid to take this any direction you want.))

"I'm fine, Aunt May. Thanks for asking," said Matt in a joyful tone, giving her the hug she wanted, then crossing the room to the couch. He sat down and propped his feet on the coffee table.
"Matt, you little devil," said Aunt May, mock-scolding him. "Get your feet off that table this instant. Who taught you manners, anyway?"
"Sorry, Aunt May," said Matt, frowning playfully and removing his feet from the table. "See, Peter? You're not the only one who gets in trouble around here."

"Hey in this house everyones Aunt May's kid." Peter said with a kiss on May's cheek.
MJ squatted down by the Christmas tree and grabbed a present. "Here you go Matt, Peter and I picked this out for you."
"Yeah hope you like." Peter added.

"You shouldn't have," Matt said, feeling himself start to blush a little. "Well, maybe you should have." Matt winked, then set down the unopened present on the coffee table. He got up, and, cane in hand, made his way toward the closet.
When his cane bumped into the closet door, he reached out with his other hand to open it. He reached into his coat pocket and pulled out two small, wrapped packages, then returned to his place at the sofa.
"Here we go. One for the lovebirds," he held out one of the presents until MJ took it. "And one for the lovely Aunt May."
After Aunt May had taken her present, Matt took a sniff at the air. "Is that turkey I smell? Done to perfection, too, if my nose doesn't deceive me?" Matt looked around the room, mostly for effect. "So, do we get to eat that bird before or after presents?"

"I say presents." Peter quickly volunteered.
Aunt may gave him a stern look. "You know tradition young man. First dinner then presents." She then looked at the clock. "I'm just waiting for one last person, who should be here any moment." And just as she finished the doorbell rang. "That must be him I'll get it."
"Who is it. I thought everyone was here." Peter hurried close behind her as she made her way to the door.
She opened the door to see Edwin Jarvis, Tony Stark's butler, with an armful of presents. "Merry Christmas Edwin. Thank you for joining us."
"Jarvis?" Confused, Peter scratched the back of his head.
"A merry Christmas to you as well Mr. and Mrs. Parker. I wouldn't have missed it for the world." Jarvis greeted back with his gentlemanly British accent.
Aunt May blushed a little. "Edwin please, you needn't be so formal. You are a guest in our house."
"Yeah plus it kinda sounds creepy when you call me and my aunt Mr. and Mrs.."
"Peter. Don't be rude. Now help Edwin with his gifts"
Peter took the presents from Jarvis. "Right sorry. This way J man and ignore the mistletoe above the door."
"Peter!" May scolded.
Jarvis glanced up to see the mistletoe hanging above him and May. "Mistletoe? It would be rude to ignore it with such a lovely lady."
Aunt May leaned forward and gave Jarvis a peck on his cheek. Although he tried to hide it his cheek started turning red. She offered him her arm which he accepted, and she escorted him to the living room.
"You've met Mary Jane." She said releasing his arm.
He leaned and kissed Mary Jane on the back of her hand. "Pleasure as always Mrs. Parker."
"MJ, please." She elbowed Peter in his side. "Why can't you have good manners like that." Peter thew his arms up as if to ask 'What'd I do?'
May then turned to Matt. "Have you had the pleasure of meeting young Matthew."

"I don't think so, Aunt May." Matt held out his hand in the general direction of May's voice. "Nice to meet you, Edwin."
"Likewise, Matthew," replied Jarvis cordially, taking Matt's hand and shaking it.
"Please, call me Matt," said Matt, smiling.

"Well let's eat." Peter blurted pointing towards the dining table with a feast fit for a king. Mashed potatoes, candied yams, deviled eggs, corn on the cob, ham with the little cherries and pineapple slices on top, all the mouth watering delights that come with Christmas dinner. At the head of it all a giant golden turkey, cooked to perfection, just as observed by Matt Murdock's keen sense of smell.
They all gathered at the table, Peter at the head so as to carve the turkey. "It all looks so delicious aunt May." Mary Jane complimented following close behind.
"Thank you dear." She said as she reached to pull out her chair to the right of Peter.
"Do allow me madame." Jarvis insisted, and pulled her chair away from the table for May.
Flattered, she placed one hand on her chest just below her neck, and smiled. "Why thank you kind sir." She sat and Jarvis slid her chair in a little closer. "Think nothing of it madame."
MJ stood over Peter's shoulder, and loudly cleared her throat. "MMMMM, MMMMMM."
Peter turned and looked at her really quick. "You ok?"
She looked at him then cleared her thoat again, "Mmmmm, mmmm?" as she turned her gaze to her chair.
Still confused Peter asked "What?"

Matt made his way toward MJ's voice, until his cane ran into one of the legs. Grabbing the back of the chair, he pulled it back.
"Allow me, MJ," he offered.
"So, Peter," Matt said after finding his own seat, "did you actually let Aunt May work in the kitchen all by herself all day to make this wonderful meal?"

"You kiddin me?" Peter answered back. "This woman would of ran The Hulk out of that kitchen."
" 'Too many cooks spoils the gravy' my mother would always say." May said in his defense. "Now everyone bow their heads for grace." She grabbed Jarvis and Peter by the hand, and Peter grabbed MJ's who then took Matt's. Then may ask. "Matt you are our guest, and may lead us in grace if you would like."

"Thank you, Aunt May," said Matt, nodding slightly and accepting MJ's hand.
..."Amen."
After a slight pause, Matt smiled widely. "Now, who's going to cut that bird? May I?" Matt made a mock gesture toward the knife.
