Longshot sniffled slightly. He got called 'father' again. Hee! He opened Shatterstar's gift carefully. More to show he was going to respect what he was given. He looked at the dagger and oohed. His eyes got misty when he saw the beads. He carefully set them aside and tried hugging the stuffing out of his eldest child once again.

When he calmed back down, he opened Rodney and Will's gift. He held it up triumphantly. "Colors! Now, I can practice staying in the lines! Before Aiden and Hana beat me."

He cuddled the books. He didn't have many coloring books. They were definitely better than any old book. "Thanks, guys! Now, where's more presents?"

He winked at the gift-bringing girls.
