It was a difficult task. He was sure it was difficult. Tobias had spent the better part of several hours seated upon the floor of his bedroom with that door firmly closed. The deviant having refused to allow anyone within that space. Even Tetradore, tonight, had been sent away. The Leopard was determined to wrap that Christmas present all on his own. Despite his utter lack of either knowledge or ability to do such a thing. That package was nothing short of horribly misshapen and buried beneath several layers of whatever items of fabric and paper Tobias had deemed suitable to conceal that gift. Newspaper, bed sheets, paper from the printer in Tetradores office and at last- actual wrapping paper - had been wrapped around and around and around that gift. Tobias having fastened those wrappings down with several thousand pieces of sticky tape, ribbon and string. That 'gift' resembling a distinctly disastrous piece of art rather than an actual gift and yet the gangly deviant remained nothing short of oblivious to such a notion. Tobias, instead, decidedly proud of his efforts in wrapping that chosen piece for his wife. The boy so at last deciding that gift was sufficiently wrapped before placing it upon his bed for safe keeping.

Tobias turned neatly upon his heel then, the boy padding barefoot across the floor and towards the door he had kept firmly locked for several hours despite Ravens concern for just what he had been doing in there. His long fingers worked deftly at the lock. Tobias at last opening that door before peering into the quiet, empty hall. Raven, it seemed, having at last abandoned her post and her attempts to have him open that door in favour of another location. A singular, final glance was given toward that wrapped monstrosity upon his bed before the lanky leopard's own affinity extended to readily and easily locate his mate within the depths of the ark. The door was shut behind him, Tobias hurrying down those stairs and onto the main floor of the ship before striding toward the kitchen where he was assured his mate waited. Raven, perhaps hungry from having waited outside the bedroom door so long,had surely gone in search of a snack. Tobias pressed the door open then, those long locks of unkempt, dark hair falling readily into his equally dark eyes as he did. The man quickly scanned that kitchen for his companion before his gaze fell upon her.

"Birdie!"

That very word was both greeting and near demand all at once. Tobias, after all, so often lacked the ability to perceive time. The man oblivious to just how long he had been within that room as a ready grin danced upon his features for several moments before abruptly fading into a bizarre obscurity once more. Tobias' gaze shifted from Raven, to that food she had and back again. The man so seemingly contemplating whether or not he desired that food in turn before deciding agianst it. His attention fixating on Raven once more.

"Biiiiirdiiiiiie....you have to....come to......the bedroom."

His head nodded in a final affirmation of that very thing, the boys gaze resting expectantly upon his companion then as he waited for Raven to finish her food and move away from the table.

"I have....finished it!"

Just what he had finished so remained to be seen. The man appearing rather proud of himself all the same.
