Authoress' note: I think it's really sweet that people around the world (from England to Australia) are celebrating at different times. I know It may be Christmas night or afternoon or even the next day for some of you, but for me right now it's Christmas morning. Merry Christmas from America!

I got a lot of great things, but two of my favorite gifts have unique stories behind them.

That coat you see in my profile? Yeah, that's canon now. Funny thing, when we were wrapping up on gift opening my mother and I were slightly confused because I had asked for a blue trench coat and my mom had secretly got me one, but it was nowhere to be found. Then my youngest brother opened his gift, and while he was slightly confused of why he got a feminine coat several sizes too big, I charged him like an angry ink demon screaming "GIVE ME!"

My other gift? I got an Oswald the Lucky Rabbit plushie from dad.

Here I am, the oldest child, getting a stuffed bunny for Christmas.

And I love it!

Oswald is my baby, fight me Disney!

Anyway, reviews!

InvaderPeppermim: Something like that happened to me several Christmases ago. I felt a lot better afterwards.

MeliLouiseNorth: Merry Christmas, my friend! (I don't know how people celebrate Christmas in England, but I'm sure it's awesome!)

gemstarz22: It may be the next day for you in Australia, so... Happy Boxing day, I guess? But Merry Christmas over in the States. I will update soon, don't fret!

Kitsuneotakugirl91: Bendy's the baby of the family.

SLS: Nope, we got one more thing to take care of (wink)

Twins 'n Fandoms : Don't worry, my friend, every gift needs a finishing touch.

Anyway, I know you've all been asking for one for a while now, so here you go!

Normally, it's the younger sibling who obnoxiously wakes the older siblings on Christmas morning.

But in case it's not already obvious, the Stein residence is not a normal house.

"Everyone up!" Charity's voice echoed through the house as she banged pots together. "It's Christmas morning people, up and at 'em!"

Grace groaned. Charity always did the clanging if Grace didn't get to it first. Sister's tradition.

As Grace moved, she felt something small and warm next to her. She slowly turned her head to find a sleeping Bendy next to her.

"Whoops." Grace muttered. Good thing he was a toon with the mind of a 5-year-old.

As Grace popped her neck, Charity bursted in the room, a crazed look filled her eyes. "There you are girl! C'mon, you love birds, it's Christmas!"

"Love birds...? CHARITY!" Grace's shouts woke Bendy, who jumped three feet in the air like a cat.

Grace chased Charity out of the room. The sisters raced around the house, passing their parents bedroom just as Henry opened the door. Henry thought best not to question it.

"What's with you this morning?! Some of us have been delivering presents half the night!" Grace shouted to her sister.

"She has a good point, Charity. Leave you sister alone." A jolly voice said from the living room.

Grace froze. No, it couldn't be...

The other Steins heard it too. Humans and toons marathoned into the living room to see Santa sitting on the couch next to a present-packed Christmas tree. The old man's leg was in a cast, signed by what appeared to be several hundred elves.

Not only that, but the living room itself was repaired as if nothing happened.

"Mr. Claus?" Henry breathed in disbelief.

"Merry Christmas, Henry! I thought I'd swing by to thank you for your service last night."

A short man with pointy ears and a festive green vest walked in carrying a tray of coffee. Santa grabbed a cup and invited everyone to sit under the tree. As they did, a drozy Bendy slumped into the room.

"Speak of the devil." Linda teased.

Bendy didn't reply, instead he collapsed on Henry's shoulder and mumbled, "I'm sorry for breaking Santa's leg."

Everyone paused. Never once had Bendy apologized for anything. Even when he set fire to the kitchen about two months ago.

"Where is Bendy and what have you done with him?" Henry asked as he pulled Bendy into his lap. The animator noted how hot Bendy felt.

One by one each relative was given a gift.

Linda got an expensive Paint set.

Boris got a saxaphone.

Henry got a new ax.

Charity got tickets for a new play.

Alice got an encyclopedia about angels.

Grace got a festive black dress with a white bow on it's front.

And Bendy...

"I got coal again, didn't I?" Bendy mumbled.

Santa smiled. "Well... no. This is actually more a gift for the whole family, but I know you've been wanting one for a while."

Santa lead the crew outside, where his sleigh waited. The family piled inside and Santa took off to a nearby lake. While they flew, Linda clutched onto Henry like her life depended on it.

"Afraid of heights?" Henry asked.

"Shut up."

The crew eventually made it to the lake, where Bendy's and Henry's eyes bulged.

"No way..." Henry breathed.

Sitting on the dock, with a huge red boy on the top, was a state-of-the-arc fishing yacht.

Everyone scrambled out of the sleigh to get to the boat. Henry climbed aboard and began exploring every nook and cranny it had. Bendy was also excited, although he collapsed on the built-in couches after walking 10 feet.

"I know you've been asking for one since that fishing trip, and since you were all so helpful last night, I thought I'd treat you all." Santa chuckled.

Henry grinned like a child. Several months back Henry decided to take Bendy fishing to have some time to bond. It was the first time the two of them ever connected, and since then Henry had been saving for a boat.

"How is this my present?" Bendy asked.

"Well, this all wouldn't have happened if you hadn't broken my leg." Santa winked.

As the Stein family gushed over their new treasure, (and Boris began to explore it's fridge) Grace sat down next to Bendy and snuggled him under her arm.

"Things have a weird way of working out, huh?" She chuckled.

Bendy blushed. "I suppose..."

"You okay?"

"I... still feel bad for the mistletoe incident. That was a lousy trick."

Grace nodded. "Don't worry about it, I've kinda been expecting it sooner or later." She gave him a peck on the horns. "Merry Christmas, ya little rascal."

Bendy was so surprised that he launched himself into the air, banging his head on the ceiling, creating a giant dent in the roof. The Steins, unaware of the present Grace gave Bendy, gave him bug-eyed looks before laughing.

Bendy, too buzzed to be embarrassed, shouted with adrenaline, "Merry Christmas, ya dolts!"

Authoress' note: The Stein (Brookes) crew finally got their ship. You're welcome.

And about that fishing trip? Well, you'll just have to wait... (wink wink)

Merry Christmas, Bendy fans!

Orio: Merry Christmas!

Oswald: Merry Christmas!

Bendy: What is that thing?!

Me: This is our newest member to the Joanie crew. Ozzy, say hi!

Oswald: (Wacks Bendy with a bat)

Me: ...Is this how toons greet each other?

Bendy: (stumbles around) ...Yup.

Grace: Merry Christmas, everyone!
