No, it isn't.

[He scoffs. Then she unwraps the next gift. He's a little more self-conscious about it.

Well, not the bacon.

But the drawing. He's always liked drawing but it hasn't been easy to find the supplies. Now here, there's so much of it. And entire store.]


You have the same eyes. See?

[He traces his finger from her face in the drawing to her father's.]
bowliever: (good night and good luck bitch)

I practiced a lot.

[He leans against her. He knows that talking about her dad can be hard. Sometimes it flows easily, other times it feels like all of your thoughts, your memories, are stuck behind the wall of a dam and you can't get it out no matter how much you want to.

So for a moment, all is quiet as he leans his head against hers and they're quiet and still and it's nice.

Then she sees the bacon and he straightens.]


If you go to the gym a lot, you need to eat certain things. If you eat this for breakfast everyday you'll be even stronger.

I thought so.

[Wow. He just looks so fucking proud of himself. Like he just cracked an incredible puzzle. BRAVO LEV BRAVO.]
bowliever: (drop me off down the block)

[personal profile] bowliever 2020-12-25 05:49 am (UTC)(link)
You didn't have to.

[But! He rolls his eyes.]

But you're bad at lying.

You need more wrapping practice.

[Still, he shifts back closer to her once she presents the gifts. He takes the squishy one, pokes at it, then pulls it open.]
bowliever: (damn bitch you live like this)

[personal profile] bowliever 2020-12-26 07:33 pm (UTC)(link)
[A HEAVY SIGH.

Still, he opens it delicately, pulling apart the seams of the folds instead of the paper.]
bowliever: (no abby you cannot kiss ellie in the cha)

I'll do it my way.

[He shoves at her! She's being so rude. But okay, finally he gets the wrapping off and finds a curious object. It's like a glove but not. He knows that it's for using his bow, they've made ones from objects they find back home. But of them were real.

He runs his finger over the leather and then glances up at her.]


It's really cool.
bowliever: (i glances)

[personal profile] bowliever 2020-12-27 04:00 am (UTC)(link)
[He slides it onto his hand. It fits well, impressive considering how small his hands are.]

It is.

See?

[He shows it to her. Like she should be proud.]

[personal profile] bowliever 2020-12-27 04:14 am (UTC)(link)
What's this one?

[He reaches over and grabs the other package like he's trying to be sneaky but knows that she's going to see it.

He shakes it experimentally.]
bowliever: (a little sus)

[personal profile] bowliever 2020-12-27 04:34 am (UTC)(link)
[He opens it. Carefully at first and then, catching Abby's eye, pulls the paper apart more quickly. There's box. Curious. He opens the box and dumps the contents out onto the bed.

It's a long... tube.

Lev picks it up and looks at it through the large glass end instead of the eyehole.]


What even is this thing?
bowliever: (WOWZERS ABBY)

[personal profile] bowliever 2020-12-27 05:27 am (UTC)(link)
Oh.

[He glances at her and then at the kaleidoscope as if trying to determine if she's teasing. Eventually, he shrugs and puts it to his eye.]

It's full of colors. And stars.

[He drops it and tries to peer into the wrong end again. BECAUSE HOW.]
bowliever: (SWEETEST SON)

[personal profile] bowliever 2020-12-27 05:56 am (UTC)(link)
It's really co-cool.

[For a minute, he's quiet as he puts the object back to his eye, learning that he can twist it and make the colors move and dance. It's enchanting, like being inside his own head when he tries to draw.

Then he drops it from his face to look at her.]


Thanks.
