[ He would offer to get burgers and milkshakes with Henry, like they've done so often, but he's under no delusions that the boy will want to spend that sort of time with him right now. At least visiting Henry in his room, it's his safe place, and Robin can walk away when it's clear the conversation has reached its end. ]
Okay, so... You've probably seen that network post from the tiny dapper kid with the pompadour. Well, uh... That's Gideon and he kiiiiinda sortaaaa has...
This massive huge obsession with me.
So, like, if he bothers you, you have my permission to do magic stuff to him.
[ Merry Christmas! Or late Christmas, because Dustin pretty much slept through it. After a rather jarringly loud fist-pounding knock on Henry’s door, he’ll find a stocking left on the ground. If he's quick enough to answer he can probably recognize curls and a favourite hat turning the corner. The stocking is jammed full of things, including:
1. Air Heads (assorted flavours, but more watermelon because those are the best) 2. A small container with only banana flavoured runts 3. Gummy bears (sour and regular) 4. Bubble tape 5. Caramello 6. Nilla wafers 7. Chupa chups 8. Cow tales 9. Gummy cola 10. Nerds 11. Skittles 12. Sour patch kids 13. Fun Dip 14. Pop Rocks
And lastly, just for him: 15. Three boxes of cereal, all themed with pac-man, donkey kong, and smurf-berry crunch. The 80s were a great time for branding.
Propped up is a Christmas card, homemade with probably the worst handwriting known to man: 'Merry Christmas. -Dustin' ]
pls pretend i wasn't lazy and imagine this is ALSO on the 26th
[ Henry's in the middle of using magic to wrap his own present for Dustin when he hears the knock so he misses him running off. But, Henry knows instantly who it is and grins, glad that he got him something. 80S BROS GOTTA LOOK OUT FOR EACH OTHER.
He heads over to Dustin's and leaves the gift with a card that says 'Thanks for the candy, it's awesome. Merry Christmas! - Henry.'
[ You bet your sweet hiney Dustin spends hours putting that thing together. His next broadcast from his room it will be proudly displayed, right next to his awesome tetris lamp.
He's gonna be careful with it if Eleven's around, though. No one's floating this one up in the air, dammit. ]
[Henry gets a sketchbook and a set of watercolor paints and brushes for Christmas. She doesn't know if he's into drawing, but she bets he could be if he wanted to. A small tag reads, "Merry ChristMax!"]
[After giving Henry the directions to the bar, Daisy headed over there herself. This still felt pretty bizarre, considering the last time she had seen him he was just a kid. Now he was a full on adult, and might be even older than her.
Taking a seat at the counter, Daisy looked around for him while idly spinning the rings around her finger.]
[ Heading in, Henry spots the woman from the video easily and makes his way over, sliding onto the seat next to her. ]
Daisy, right? Nice to officially meet you in person.
[ When he actually looks at her though, there's some kind of...weird familiarity but he shakes it off, getting a beer from the person tending bar tonight. ]
[ Outside of Henry's door is a basket of goodies and a trio of literary candles that will hopefully prove to be inspiring. There's also a letter. ]
Dear Henry,
The last time I saw you at home, you were leaving with Emma while everyone else prepared for a trip back to the Enchanted Forest. You were so small, and you were so full of guilt for things that could in no way ever be your fault. And now, look at you. You're so like your grandfather, and he would be so incredibly proud. You've grown in the blink of an eye, and though I know things are still slightly confusing, I'm so proud of you. You could never know how proud I am.
Thank you for taking me on this incredible journey with you, Henry. I'm not sure if you remember right now, but I gave you your original book that started the adventure of bringing our family together again. You had the courage and belief to break a curse once before. I have no doubt in my heart that you can do it again. Merry Christmas, Henry. I love you, very much.
Hey, Henry. I wanted to apologize for the way I've been acting. If you have some time, maybe we could get another cup of coffee and talk? Promise not to hit the table this time.
[That small miracle is probably going to do them both a world of good.]
Adjustment is definitely an understatement. Feel like meeting me in half an hour? I've been trying to piece some things together, and I think you're the guy to talk to.

GRR FACE
If he bothers YOU, tell me.
Are you okay?
[Protective Henry mode ACTIVATED.]
no subject
Yeah, I'm fine. He's not that hard to deal with if he doesn't have a giant robot or telekinesis.
He plays up the cute act A LOT, but hopefully everybody sees through it here.

Hey, Henry.
I uh, didn't know what you wanted.
[That felt weird to say, considering the last time she saw him he was way too young to drink.]

Hey, you don't have to apologize for anything, Emma. This is all an adjustment. For lack of a much better word.
Coffee sounds good, I'm up for grabbing it any time. My schedule in Magic Mansion is pretty open.

Adjustment is definitely an understatement.
