[James is a little late to the party, but he gets there in time for everyone to start heading outside. That's when all the real fun starts at a New Year's party. He's bundled up for the occasion in a red muffler and black cloak, and something about parties in Winter reminds him of being back at school.
He's also opted for 2014 glasses because they're more than a bit ridiculous (and is it really 2014? That's probably the most ridiculous part of all) but sadly, they don't fit over his actual glasses, so they're just perched on top of his head. He looks silly, but he doesn't mind at all. He doesn't have any Muggle noisemakers or silly string (whatever that's supposed to be), but that's because he's got his wand with him, and that's really all he needs.
Unfortunately, the person he would most like to be kissing at midnight is far away from Wonderland, but he'll cope just fine - he can always dwell on it some other time. Not now when he can shoot confetti and streamers at people and fire off sparks from his wand. Another year has passed, whether Wonderland likes it or not, and it's a tiny bit of rebellion worth celebrating.]
