I'll bear that in mind whenever I meet him. [ Note to self: don't make Mega cry by denying the existence of Santa in front of him. ] You can tell Saint Nick he owes me twelve years of Christmas presents, by the way.
[ Christmas was never about presents at the orphanage, or good food, or decorating a tree, or ice skating. It was always about God. And Ava never deserved presents for her "bad" behavior so she never got any. Not that she'd want one from Sister Frances. The only gift she ever gave Ava was poison. ]
If Mega's your friend, I wouldn't want him to be alone instead of me... As much as I'd like you all to myself. [ She leans up to kiss his chin. ] I'm trying to work on removing selfishness from the list of my sins.
[ And it always seems like it's one step forward and three steps back in terms of selfishness. But maybe he and Ava are on the right track. Maybe together they can figure it out. Maybe they won't be able to be selfish because they'll be worrying about each other.
.....or maybe this will make them worse. He and Monika still managed to remain firmly planted in selfishness throughout their entire short burst of a relationship.
He forces the thought aside, drawing her just slightly closer. ]
I'll get you a million presents to make up for it. You're gonna be so fucking spoiled you won't even know what to do with yourself. But for now, the best gift I can give you is shutting up and letting you sleep.
[ Ava has to admit the selfish part of her likes the idea of being spoiled, but she shouldn't be encouraging him to buy her affection when he already has it. ]
Don't need a million presents, just need...
[ She drifts off, sighing out the word 'you' into his chest, exhaustion finally taking over her. Within a minute, she's practically out cold, and she'll probably sleep a whole twelve hours uninterrupted thanks to the fog doing a number on her. Hopefully Tech won't be too bored while she rests. Maybe he even can clean her room since it's even messier since the last time he was in it... ]
