[It's thirty seconds or so before Lillian answers. She'd been up, but clearly wasn't 'up', judging by the t-shirt and pajama pants and big fuzzy slippers she was wearing, or the way her hair was actually down and was more like a cape than a ponytail.]

[She leaned against the edge of the door, blinking out at her sister in surprise.]

Angela?

[And then the wind shot through the door and she immediately stepped back.]

Come in come in hurry.

[Closing the door as soon as her sister was through it. The apartment was a bit bare at the moment, with half the things in it gone, but there was a Christmas tree in the corner at least.]

[Angela will place a small box under the tree, and then pace back over to hug her sister.]

It is truly wonderful to be with you again on Christmas morning, sister.

[Squeezes Lillian a bit harder, sighing against her shoulder.]

You are all the family that I have right now...

[Lillian made a little 'ulp' noise when Angela hugged her because she was freezing but forced herself through it anyway considering the younger girl seemed glum.]

It's great to see you too, Angela. I was hopin' you'd come by.

[And she'd have called her eventually if she hadn't, probably.]

Can't promise a lot but hey, there's a tree. And I got ya somethin', sort of.

[androidheart]

"Sort of"? [She pulls back, now grinning, the pain of the past hidden once more behind her bright demeanor.]

What's that, Lillian? Half a present? Three quarters?

[aintjustaweapon]

[Lillian huffed.]

More like I got you something but I don't know if you'll want it?
