[Video]

[Teddy is holding a small snowglobe up to the camera, squinting at it. Inside is the New York City skyline and what appears to be a tiny red figure in mid-air between two buildings.]

I think that's Spider-Man, but I'm not sure.

[Teddy thinks about this for a moment, and chews at his lower lip.]

Maybe the lights. Well, actually there is something...but it's weird.

[inmyothertights]

You're talking to the master of weird, here, remember?

I like the smell of Christmas trees outside, when they're being sold on the sidewalk. Which, I mean, it's sort of odd that it's a traditional part of the holiday to cut down trees and put them inside your house, but I like the way pine smells.

[inmyothertights]

That sound pretty reasonable to me.

[lookjustlike]

Until someone catches you sniffing trees.

Then it's suddenly really hard to explain.

[inmyothertights]

Tree huffer.

[Sticks out tongue.]

[inmyothertights]

You stick your tongue out at me, Altman, and you'll promptly lose it.

Oh, really.

[There is an almost automatic check of the apartment to make sure Tommy is absolutely definitely not there, and then Teddy kisses Billy. With tongue. Because there is a reason he should get to keep that.]

[inmyothertights]

[Tommy is definitely not around. He kisses Teddy back, one hand still clutching the snowglobe. This is a very fine reason for Teddy to get to keep his tongue, Billy will agree]

Okay, okay.

[Said a little breathlessly, as he moves to straddle Teddy's lap]

You can keep the tongue.

[lookjustlike]

Good. Glad that's settled.

[And Teddy pulls him down for more.]
