Christmas day, late afternoon, after a whole day of of hustle and bustle, Ruby and Roman return home for one last exchange.
Ruby and roman sat across from each other in front of the fireplace
Ruby holds a orange package
While Roman holds a red package.
Roman: Well, I guess it’s time for the main event for the day, the final gift exchange, and the final gift opening.
Ruby smiles: I suppose it is Roman, and this year, I think I won.
Roman rolls his eye(s) with a smirk: You say that every year Red, and ever year I win, lets see if you can break my winning streak.
Ruby Pouts before returning a grin right back: Well, I’m grateful you’re prepared to lose in that case.
The two toss the packages to each other, the Red Gift being a bit more heavy causing the Hunter to stumble for a second.c
Roman closing his eye: Seems pound for pound, my gift for you has you beat dear.
Â
Ruby chuckles: Well, you know, heavy doesn’t mean quality, a ton of concreate isn’t quite a match for a pound of Sapphires you know.
The two look at each other, for what was only seconds felt like hours.
Then.... the two open the gifts in a swift manner
Ruby was first to look, and already knows that he got the good stuff; inside was a small but compact can of super premium Weapon polish: one made for transforming weapons in particular, a pair of Red glasses that are made to be truly stick to the face of hunters with no risk of falling off mid-combat, and a ticket, a ticket for a dozen cookies a week...for life at High tier Bakery.
Roman slightly behind his red partner looked in with true surprise, inside was two hats; one of truly high craftmanship that can change it’s form into three other forms; gloves, Sunglasses, all three, and the other lower, but seemingly hand made by Ruby herself that was made to look like his normal hat...but bigger and the ribbon being made from Rose petals and most likely blood. Inside was also a container of hair gel, but not any hair gel, hair gel made from best quality water from the deepest caves.
Roman:.....Seems like this is a tie, what do you think?
Ruby smiles already diving into Roman like a cannonball: Sounds good to me!
With roman already trying on Ruby’s hat much to her cringe, the two spent the night talking about the gifts and how hard they were to get, with one final sentence finishing it off with the two laughing.
Roman: But seriously, do you know how HARD it was to get the bakery to give me that ticket?
