[ Guess that means it's Sullivan's turn. He opens up Masaomi's present at the same time that Tom, gingerly putting down the tickets goes to open up his own from Masaomi. And what's inside of them... ]
Oh wow.
[ Both of them say it more or less in tandem. (Also Audrey did you leave Sullivan's lap for that hug?) but all the same - Octavio returns that hug and pulls her in close, appreciating it. It's nothing to apologize for, she didn't know anything about it. Hell, most of the kids might not necessarily know what's up with him and his family. Still, he keeps that close and he kisses her on the cheek.
Anyway! Tom and Sullivan's gifts - Tom's gift is pretty straightforward. It's a bottle of pills, a high powered painkiller which may or may not be legal, and then a well stocked first aide kit under it. He grins at Masaomi in a sheepish way before hiding the pills and nodding, understanding (Shin does get beat up a lot. Okay he does most of the beating up himself, still)
and Sullivan's gift is... Well, he's got a ring there. It's a ring with the sigil of the fraternity he was in during college. And he smiles at that, but at the bottom of the box is something else! And it's --- ... Oh. It's a handful of little cards which are signed by Masaomi which give Sullivan full right to demand favors from other people in the house. He flips through them, his eyes widening, until he gets to the last one, which Audrey can probably see if she's still there, and while most of them were quite indulgent, the last one reads:
"Sully, you're as much one of us as anyone, you don't need me to order people to help you or gratify you." ]
Oooh. You should, Ada, she'll look quite good in it.
[ Masaomi isn't sure if they mean that threeway or just threm going at it themselves. Both of them sound good for him, though, and he looks as thoughtful as one can with a beard on up at Ada ]
