[ Toby. Is. Pissed. Also possibly fighting tears. It's hard to tell, she mostly looks like she wants to kill something. ]

Okay, so whatever jackass thought it was a good idea to deliver creepy gifts to everybody? I'm guessing the station AI, but I can't be sure...

Yeah, you can go fuck yourself. Very funny, ha ha, if there's a way to punch a ( Read more... )

[Scott's busy setting something up, but when he sees Toby mentioning something abut creepy gifts, he stops for second.]

Did you get something like a lacerated chicken? That's what I got. Is it really the station's AI that did that? Because that's a pretty messed up idea of a gift.

No, I got a knife, my knife from home, wrapped in--

[ No, she doesn't want to explain that. ]

It doesn't matter. What matters is that the only person other than some creepy, privacy-invading computer program who would know that this would piss me off is my sister, and there's no way she would do that to me.

Also my cats are suddenly in here. My cats, that I've had for years.

...You got a lacerated chicken?

What the hell? Actually, I just met some kid earlier who got another gift just like this. Something real bad that seemed like someone knew his past, or something... [And geez, Tails has had it rough.] Your cats were there, too? The AI is pretty creepily clever if it was the AI who sent it.

Yeah, a chicken. Maybe a game hen. The one who sent it was "Santa Claws". It seemed in lots of pain, bleeding everywhere. I had to put it down. [He types that like he just injected it with something, but NOPE, snapped that sucker's neck.]

Yeah, I don't even know. It's just... it pissed me off.

[ and made her cry. shhhhh. ]

...It was alive? What the hell is that about?

[ The concern cuts through the bleariness. He's still really out of it himself. ]

I'll have some rotgut ready t'go.

... Sure y'don't want company? Won't ask 'bout nothin'.

[ Yes, because he's really in the condition to drunk babysit. ]

Nah, I--

It's home stuff. I just need some space to scream and drink and maybe commit some property destruction.

[ sigh ]

I swear, I'm not usually this messed up at home. Don't even drink that often, just...

Meh. You want me to come help you out tomorrow? [ dry ] I mean, I did offer waitressing services.

Yeah. I can understand, trust me. This place does shit t'you that home don't.

[ There's a smile to his voice. ] Depends, you still gonna be in a property destruction mood?

Nah, that'll pass. I mean, I might keep punching my bedroom walls for a few days, but I won't wreck the Apple.

[ she sounds pretty relieved - hey, having something to do would help distract her, anyway. ] Thanks.

See?

[ She swings the communicator around so you can see a PROUD, STUFFED MAN in front of the fireplace. ]

Grandpa!

[ this is Toby's best attempt at covering up her most horrified and confused face. ]

What--

...Why in Oberon's name do you have a taxidermied elderly gentleman in front of your fireplace?

Yeah. I'm just glad May got the cats. Even if they're technically my cats. Cats are not rage-inducing, generally speaking.

Of course.

Though if, by chance, you weren't and perhaps wanted to talk about it, do at least know that I'm here to listen.

[ she is doing the stoic face. And the flat voice. No emotions. Nope. ]

My... lover was killed not long before I got here. He was a selkie... a fae with a human form who could transform into a seal as long as they had their enchanted sealskin.

My gift came wrapped in a seal skin.

You can see why I might be a little pissed off.
