📝 Day 98 — Outside Inquiries
Posted by Ruben Escalona on
The questions didn’t come from inside the room today. Messages arrived from places that shouldn’t have noticed us yet. Santa read them carefully. Cupid drafted responses. Jack Marrow was already gone.
📝 Day 97 — Still Not a Team
Posted by Ruben Escalona on
There was talk of a photo. A logo. Something official-looking. Santa postponed it. Cupid objected. Jack Marrow left early. The Holiday Alliance still exists. A team does not.
📝 Day 96 — The First Report
Posted by Ruben Escalona on
The first official report was compiled today. It listed names, roles, and statuses—but left out conclusions. The Holiday Alliance exists on paper now. The Unlikelies exist everywhere else.
📝 Day 95 — Jack Marrow Declines to Participate
Posted by Ruben Escalona on
Cupid rolled out the evaluation schedule. Everyone received a time slot—except Jack Marrow. When asked to participate, he declined. Santa allowed it. Nothing else needed to be said.
📝 Day 94 — Evaluation Criteria (Unpublished)
Posted by Ruben Escalona on
The document says “Holiday Alliance.” The margin notes say something else. Cupid introduced evaluation criteria that no one reviewed, Santa did not comment, and the difference between official language and lived reality became impossible to ignore.
