[ Gwen, however, was expecting Wade to break in, so when he does, just as he's leaving her presents, she flips the lights on and hands him a wrapped box with a very important spray bottle inside. ]
Oooh, caught red-handed [ That was definitely a pun. Instead of placing down the gift like he'd planned, he holds it out to her instead before ripping into the one she got him. ]
Wow, this is so -- did you get me toi-- wait [ Okay, he's reading the bottle. His mask shifts with the grin behind it. ]
Aw. Last person who gave me advice on getting blood out of stuff became one of my bee eff effs.
What is this? [ Gwen unwraps Wade's gift while Jeff comes over and happily starts gnawing away at the bone, neither of them questioning its (likely questionable) source.
The clock is... cute, but unexpected. Definitely less cursed than what Gwen was expecting. ]
You know all Zoomers just keep time on our phones, right?
I think most people call that a clock. Before your time, I know. HAH! [ Ew, he's just full of Christmas cheer and puns tonight. ] Basically an ancient relic.
[ He's still reading stuff off the bottle as he speaks, full attention only flickering to her when the word 'Zoomers' leaves her mouth. ]
Wow, it's for the aesthetic, you of all people, I thought would understand.
[ Yeah, she may not think the clock is cursed but Wade finds Kit-Cat Klocks deeply unnerving. It's the eyes. He's even a cat person! ]
I'm honestly surprised the inside of your apartment doesn't look like every 4 year old's princess room. Pretty disappointed.
[ Did they just get double green ++'s above their heads like a Sims game? He actually looks up to make sure there isn't one. ]
'Course, Gwennie. Thanks for this, [ He wobbles his gift a bit. ] and a happy New Year to you, and tuna-breath down there. I guess I should head out, the houses aren't going to invade themselves.

[ Even if Gwen's not a cat person. She's more a shark-dog person. ]
Thanks, Wade. Merry Christmas.

[ They definitely leveled up their friendship. Gwen can imagine the ++. ]
Go get 'em, tiger. Spread good will and cheer and all that shit.
