[attr="class","cobbody"]Christmas, a holiday designed for the spreading of cheer and the mantra of generosity being crucial. Through Lorsette, colourful lights twinkled across the rooftops and people decorated trees in the name of celebration. While some celebrated other avenues or none at all, Christmas was a staple of joy inside the Blane household. The sheer size of the seemingly ever-expanding Blane family made the holiday a monumental date. Though, instances of the entire Blane family conjugating in a single location were spread out to avoid overwhelming one another.

As a year for the calmer Christmas events, Adonai was comfortable accomplishing a little last-minute shopping and gift wrapping. Fortunately, the shopping went smoothly with their early attendance at Lorsette's shopping centers. The conclusion of their shopping journey inevitably led them to the hard-surfaced kitchen table with boxed presents, Christmasy wrapping paper, a knife and tape. The rigorous task of wrapping paper tight around boxes was something that failed to defeat Adonai, rather, he learned to crisply fold the decorated paper.

The merman's green eyes were fixated on the small box he decided to tackle as the first of many presents. Estimated measuring was accomplished, Adonai bringing the paper's edge to the box's center. Mental notes swirled through his head as the perfectionist adjusted the amount of used wrapping until finally satisfied. Straight-lined folds were made at the adjusted length before Adonai grabbed the metallic handle of the kitchen knife. Carefully, he brought the edge close to cut down the folded line, manifesting a straighter cut.

The pair of edges were folded over the box, a piece of pre-cut tape being grabbed from the table edge. Once secure, he leaned over, pressing one of the wider edges down before folding the sides in. Finally, the remaining edge was folded and tapped. Once he flipped the box, the automatic process was continued until an excellently wrapped present "from" Santa sat before him. A satisfied smile traced Adonai's lips, though his triumph was interrupted by a soft mumble. The merman's gaze shifted to his husband, discovering him tape covered and with a questionably wrapped gift.

A gentle smile carved onto his face followed by a small, breathy laugh. A few steps were taken towards Nitzan, Adonai's fingers soon plucking tape from his husband's fingers.

"It's not that bad dear," he assured. "You tried, but your wrapping is... distinct. Although, if you're against wrapping, perhaps I could fold and you can tape?"

The quiet suggestion was meant for assistance with alleviating the worries in folding the "Santa gifted" presents without disheartening the redhead. While Adonai adored the man who assisted with the acquiring of holiday traditions, he recognized Nitzan's subpar wrapping skills. Nonetheless, the green-haired merman wished to work alongside his precious husband. Holidays were suggested by him, though, learned together and forged into traditions. It made accomplishing the littlest things together with a magnificent experience for the father.

If Nitzan never entered his life those many years ago, Adonai was uncertain of where his life would have led him. Alas, his mind in a negativistic moment suggested possibilities of never-ending loneliness. A world devoid of his delights of children and marriage, one where he stuck in that office and fixated on the requirements of being serious... One where he never slipped his number in Nitzan's information envelope. The sheer thought irked him as memories surfaced of the hundreds of nights he spent with the redhead.

Had the strings of connection never formed between them, Adonai believed those bottles would have never opened. The transformation resulted from Nitzan's entrance created the man he became. The pair affected one another, a pair of lonely hearts wishing to survive in a cruel world. Thoughts were pushed away as Adonai grabbed the sheet of sticker tags and glanced over it. His eyes landed on a blue tag with a small, smiling snowman which would match the white and blue snowflake wrapping paper. Promptly, it was peeled and stuck onto the present on the single, unfolded side in the center.

[attr="class","cobbody"]From the moving truck's mouth, the first piece of furniture was unloaded and placed onto the lawn. The elder merman's green eyes observed the unloading, taking a moment to admire the chosen furniture by Emilia. Meanwhile, he listened to the exchange of complements from his sisters. Despite his failures in the realms of female aesthetic and appearances, he refused to ruin their few moments of delighted conversation. While he could capably compliment his sisters, the minor altercations were often left unspoken unless evident health benefit existed.

Perhaps the side effects of being the eldest sibling, Adonai's mind fixated on health and safety. Through his years, he plucked his siblings from dangerous situations as a willing force of protection. All in spite of being his parents' primary puppet for centuries before deciding what he wanted. The mention of requiring shoes returned Adonai's attention towards his sisters in narrow time to witness the end of the tips of Emilia's purple hair as she retreated. In the meantime, his gaze returned, arms at his side as he waited for Emilia's return.

The return through the opened threshold summoned a woman prepared to take charge of the situation. The haste in which she delegated tasks bringing a brief, momentary grin to Adonai's face. All of them grew plenty from the circumstances they were birthed to, and the merman was satisfied laying witness to it. He gave a nod to the orders given to Emilia.

"Alright," he began, taking his position at the opposing end. "Either way, let's avoid that. I would rather not make you have to spend money on repairs."

At times, repairs were expensive and Adonai preferred limiting any damages to Emilia's home. Gradually, the green-haired man's hands slid into suitable positions to provide a steady hold.

"Ready when you are, Emi," the merman informed.

When the order arrived, he planned on lifting the piece of furniture and following Emilia into the home. Though, despite her words his green eyes analyzed everything extensively in hopes of avoiding any damages.
