Forgive, O Lord,
my little jokes on thee...

Hal just looked at Angela.

"Well, you're horrible at recognising what 'nothing' is." he told her.

He then looked at package, before slowly unwrapping it and opening the box inside. And when his eyes were laid upon the geode, they lit up with sheer surprise, to the point of being stunned.

"Oh... oh my..." he mumbled.

"This... this can't be...!?" he exclaimed lightly, sheer joy in his eyes.

...and I'll forgive thy
great big one on me.

"What?" Liv asked. ".... I... I was told it was rare and hard to find." She added.

"It is, don't worry." Angela told her daughter.

"I think he's just surprised." Lunet commented after a moment or two.

"I mean... it.. it's really hard to find and all..."

"That is an understatement, my dears." Hal responded.

"This is so rare, it's... it's..." he said further, stopping for a moment.

"It's perfect." he then stated.

"It's gorgeous, it's stunning, and it's a wonderous thing." he went on.

"How did you EVER get it?"

"Found it at a flea market." Lunet answered.

"I.. it felt nice. So... so I asked Liv, who had the idea that it'd be a good gift for you." She added.

"I know you like to collect things like that." Liv said with a shrug. "And I thought it was super pretty."

Hal gently set the geode down on a table that was near him, and made his way over towards the two girls. Once he was close enough, he knelt down and gently pulled them both into a hug.

"Thank you, girls." he said.

"It's amazing." he told them.

"Just like the both of you are." he finished.

Both returned the embrace, but he could feel the difference between them. Liv hugged him as if he actually was family, Lunet hugged him more like ... just somsone that she'd met once or twice in the past. Granted, this was definitely an improvement over how she'dbeen such a shut in before meeting Liv. It was a small change that had rather large implications, he'd take it.

"You're welcome." Both girls said in unison, before chuckling )or laughing in Liv's case).

"Now pay up!" Liv stated after a few seconds.

"Lil tit for tat, yo!"

Hal laughed at Liv's statement, and gave them each a wrapped gift.

"Here you both go." he said.

"Merry early Christmas." he told them.

"Go ahead and open them." he said further.

The two did so, and Lunet discovered that Hal had given her a book. A book entirely of brail, and one she'd heard about a while back and wanted to read. Liv discovered a set of 5 little stuffies, based on cute versions of mythical creatures.

Liv just beamed.

"More for my collection!" There was definitely excitement to her voice.

"Thanks!" She added. Lunet, was a lot quieter, which was a testament to how different they were.

"Thank you... So much." The blind girl said quietly. There was some excitement to her voice as well, but it was far more subdued than Liv's was. Hal could hear the sincerity there though.

Hal smiled at Liv.

"Figured you'd like them." he said.

"Especially the griffin." he added, before looking at Lunet.

"And you're welcome, sweetie." he told her.

"I'm glad you like it."

"All right girls, let's clear outta here." Angela said. "I did promise a movie tonight." She added, which net a cheer from Liv.

"And if we're going to make the screentime, we gotta get home so I can feed you two." She added.

"So get your stuff and let's go."

Hal stepped away from Lunet and Liv to let them get ready, and made his way back to Ty and Angela.

"Anyway, Merry Christmas you two." he told them.

"Back atcha, Hal." Ty responded.

"Have a good break." Hal said further.

"We'll see ya when it's done." Ty smiled.

"Same to you." Angela said with a soft smile.

"Just remember that I am on call during this. Any hour." She reminded him. "As are Nate and Alicja, but leave them alone this break if you can, hey?"

"Anyway, I'm going to get the girls home." She added. "Ty, we still on for the 26th?" She asked.

"I know you said you wanted to take Lunet for a bit."

Ty nodded in response.

"Yeah." he said.

"Don't worry." Hal interjected. "I won't be calling anyone to come into work unless it's a dire emergency." he assured Angela.

He then looked at Ty and smiled.

"You have plans this Christmas, do you?" he asked. "That's rather unlike you." he commented.

"Well, things change." was all Ty responded, as he shrugged slightly.

"technically after Christmas." Angela commented with a light laugh.

"He wanted to treat the girls to a second dinner this year." She added.

"Which yes, surprised me. Until it was because he wanted to see if he COULD do it."

Ty shrugged.

"I'll make sure it's one they remember." he said.

"...in a good way." he added.

Hal just laughed a little.

"I understand." he said.

"Anyway, I'm going to say goodbye to the girls." Ty told them, before walking closer to them. Ty watched, and smirked.

"And he's about to have the best Christmas ever."

Angela was silent for a moment before looking over toward Hal.

"Oh?" She asked.

"What... What do you mean?" followed a couple of seconds later.

"I wanted to tell you this before you left, outside of Ty's earshot." Hal responded.

"But it's been approved." he told her.

"Ty can officially begin the process of adoption... any time now." he revealed.

"Everyone's seen how he's done and what he's doing, and they agree that he can care for a child. They're all right with the daycare being used by them, obviously, and he has a support network to help him care for her." he explained.

"In short, he's finally proven himself."

Hal nodded.

"Perfect." he said.

"I think it'll be the perfect gift for the both of them." he told her.

"Oh, and seems he also plans to get a bigger place to live if he's approved." he then said. "He told me himself that his place is not super suitable for long-term living, and that was a big reason he's being accepted." he went on.

"Not only is he proving himself right now, but he's thinking ahead for the future."

Angela didn't say anything for a moment or two.

"However, I think this is amazing." She added after a moment.

"Ah, right. ... If you want to join for dinner, we'll be at Ty's for Christmas, I think." She paused after a moment.

"So long as he doesn't reject the idea." She added with a laugh.
