I was just looking at that thread again a few days ago and was going to bump it! It was interesting and scary.

What a great thread that was:

They look like those weird christmas cards from idk 1900s? Someone posted them a few years ago.

Keep up the good work!

My first thought was that it looks like he's going to sexually assault her.
I was joking about the dabbing, but I meant this definition:
Dabbing, or the dab, is a gesture in which a person drops their head into the bent crook of a slanted, upwardly angled arm, while raising the opposite arm out straight in a parallel direction. The move looks similar to someone sneezing into the crook of their elbow.
Emerging out of the Atlanta hip-hop scene, the dab is an expressive sneezing gesture that in some way shows your swagger dominance over all other haters. (Because nothing says “swag” like a sneeze).

Dabbing? You mean like weed?
I don't see that at all. More like she's trying to get away from an obvious incoming rape attack or at least play hard to get to further excite the Archbishop and possibly secure a nice bonus for her improvised effort.

That's what I thought.
Although the woman in the first pic also looks like she's "dabbing."

Looks like the Archbishop of La-De-Da has put one of his cronies up to some devilish cosplay mischief so he can have a little peep show then later he will chastise and punish them harshly with severe whippings so they can atone for their sins while he finally gets his jollies and a boner.
Fucking Catholics.

Oh, that's just Kevin, Krampus' white friend.

Is that the back of Krampus on the right in the second one? Then what is the horned thing on the left?

Krampus taking some bitch away in the first, and Nicolas spittin rhymes with Krampus giving backup.

Krampus looks like he's going to frisk her or even assault her, while Saint Nick watches! Perverts!

Krampus and St Nicholas work together. I see St Nick watching thru the window in the first pic, so I assume the woman is on the naughty list

See my reply.

I thought of Krampus too, but what's happening in the pictures?
