Author's Notes: Blame Kytten and sparrowinsky. It's all about the socks. And Charon is anal about socks.
"To: Charon. From: Guess." Charon stared at the nondescript box. He tapped it once or twice before holding it up to his ear and listening. After determining that it was not a bomb, he ripped away the garish red ribbon surrounding the box and popped off the top.
Socks. Perfectly black socks.
The corner of Charon's mouth creased into a smirk. Whomever "Guess" turned out to be was in for a treat.

"All right, God damn it," Charon snarled. "Which one of you thought this would be funny?"
Charon held the socks out in front of the Vaultie's and Gob's face. A perfectly pink kitten smiled back at them. Behind the socks, Charon had quite the opposite look on his face.
Gob and the Vaultie grinned knowingly.
Charon shoved the socks inside Gob's mouth and stalked out of the room.
There was a treat for him.
