[ they open the door immediately but just sort of like

avoid eye contact. ]

[failedsafe]

[just goes in for a hug and kisses the top of their head.]

Are you okay? I missed you.

[beautifulend]

I'm as okay as I always am.

[ they snuggle closer against her, ears flattened. ]

I missed you, too.

[failedsafe]

So...not great.

[She holds them tighter and pets heir ears and hair.]

[beautifulend]

But good enough.

[failedsafe]

[hm nah, don't like that, but it's not important for right now. and yet--

she draws back a little to hold their face tenderly.]

I'll do my best to try and pick up the slack, then.

[beautifulend]

[ They just smile up at her a bit weakly, ears perking a little. ]

You do a good job of that without trying, you know.

[failedsafe]

Well, then I'll be very devastating if I do then, huh? And not just me. You're worth it.

[she kisses their ears and the top of their head again]

[beautifulend]

You really do have the worst taste, Lily.

[ but they do laugh, softly. ]

[failedsafe]

My taste is exquisite and I will hear nothing to the contrary.

[just gonna swoop them up in her arms and take them to their room.]

[beautifulend]

[ oh

okay.

they flail for approximately half a second before they realize they're not being attacked, and then dogwhine a little. ]

[failedsafe]

[She sets them on their bed before reaching for their cheek.]

Sorry.

[beautifulend]

[ They smile, and just lean forward to give her a quick kiss. ]

I was just surprised, that's all. It was nice.

[failedsafe]

[She kisses them back once, and then again, longer before drawing back and nuzzling them.]

I'm glad.

[beautifulend]

Mm.

I'm sorry for missing Christmas.

[failedsafe]

It's okay, you're here now. All I want for Christmas is you~!♪

But I...got you something anyway.

[beautifulend]

Oh? What is it?

[failedsafe]

[reaches into her bag for meticulously wrapped presents that she offers to them

in the first is a bunch of xmas themed goodies including cupcakes with ther face done in icing.

the second is a weapon maintenance kit

The third is a beautifully bound journal with their many initials on the spine and fountain pen]

[beautifulend]

[



oh. ]

Lily!

[failedsafe]

That's my name.

[beautifulend]

This is too much!

[failedsafe]

It is not.

[beautifulend]

It is! Lily!

[failedsafe]

You deserve this and so much more.

[beautifulend]
