Jan. 9: Family Holiday
It was Paris Theodore Day, a family tradition for Beatrice Dayspring and her mother, and Bea's place had been chosen for the rendezvous point, because one can't go the restaurant and open Paris Theodore Day gifts there. People, surprisingly, frowned on that sort of thing.
Mom wasn't there yet, and neither was Kelly. She hoped this would go well. She'd tried to warn Mom.

She had both of their little presents packaged and on the coffee table. She'd told Kelly not to bother, because she'd included a traditional Paris Theodore Day gift in her Christmas present.

	"I'm sure you'll all come to terms with it." And Dom looks at the gifts on the coffee table. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Go ahead and open one of those first," Bea said, indicating Kelly's gifts. Best to get that over with. She grabs one, too. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Kelly nods enthusiastically, practically bouncing on her perch while waiting for them to open her gifts, waiting her turn when mom opens the gift from Bea as well. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

There will be blinkage at Kelly's gift. "Very...handy, thank you." Domino takes a breath, and then, after a moment, smiles. "Which indirectly reminds me, Beatrice: I'm sorry I still haven't gotten you an Illya Kuryakin LMD, but Fury watches those things like a hawk."

And then Beatrice's gifts, which are in turn identical. "Oh, how cute! An old-fashioned in-the-pants concealer holster. With the original instructions. 'Meant to be worn within the clothing just behind and below the hip.'"

	"Ooohhh, a new one! My old concealer was getting worn. Thank you!" And there will be a leaping-pounce-hug. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Bea catches her. "I wouldn't want you to ever have trouble when you wanted to put a cheerleaderesque posed hand on your scrawny butt just before shooting someone." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Priorities are important," Domino says drily. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Its a holiday. Part of her gift to her sister is not making the incestuous joke about just whose hand is on her butt after the catch. At least in front of their mother. At least this time. "Totally, got to be able to access the guns." Did she just feel up her sister while getting disentangled? Ok, maybe accidentally, but it fit the commentary. And was very subtle.

	Bea sighs a little and smiles. "So where do you want to eat?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Ooohhh, ooohhh, she knows this one. No, wait, wait. Manners in front of mom. Besides, too easy. Easy, heh. "What's good around here?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	And off they go. Bea makes herself not worry over what Kelly might do in public. At least all their weapons are concealed-carry. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Kelly is, for Kelly, remarkably well behaved. She is capable of making a reasonably normalish impression, after all. Especially when someone else is buying really good Italian food. (Reply to this)(Parent)
