YugisGal18: You think you know who it is? Good for you! I love X too, it's one of my favourite anime. And Subaru and Sei-chan are my favourite shounen-ai couple, seeing as Tokyo Babylon was the second manga I ever read I fell in love with the cute bumbling Subaru of TB. Although the hardened version of X is still just as nice. You've managed to get me thinking now about having him in a brief cameo... Yuppers, I'm going to add in Subaru, yay!

GillianSillis: You keep on writing more and more... I think I've got me a stalkster... Nanashi is around, he's not disappeared completely. I'll make sure to put a little of him into the next chapter... Ooooh:lightbulb appears: I know how to do it! I'm also glad you liked Yuzuriha's "kill the romance" lines. And your idea about Tsuzuki just going off with Hisoka into the sunset... well... I can't say... Sorry. I've written all the way up to Gift Ten, and Tsuzuki's mind set changes slightly... And don't discount Hijiri quite yet because he will be appearing in the fic during one of the last gifts. I know, I'm evil. I'm determined to have you all guessing to the end! And Tatsumi's mini-omake on the bills will be the chapter before the last gift.

xangel of death sarah: Uh, if I told you then the whole point of the story would be zero...

Morbid Flower: Don't worry, there's an omake chapter coming up that lists the suspects more clearly for each gift to help those straggling behind in guessing who it is. Those who wish to remain oblivious however can also continue that way. The next omake is just a recap... Oh, I love my little breaks in the story...

Jollyolly: It still could be Muraki. Don't discount anyone as of yet. As for discounting Hijiri, how could you? He loved Tsuzuki just as much as any of the other schmucks! Aw, poor Hijiri, you made him cry...

Tsuzuki yawned. Another bad night's sleep. It wasn't unusual. Dreams of thsoe who suffered or died because of him. Dreams of Touda's flames or the Devil's alternate reality. Dreams of Muraki, or sometimes his worst nightmare, of Hisoka being hurt, hating him, blaming him... Refecting him...

Now he was sat at his desk, half dead. His admirer hadn't been so kind as to do his paperwork today, so he was slowly getting further and further behind. The paperwork seemed to be breeding and reproducing. Was such a thing possible?

"Didn't sleep well?" Watari asked sympathetically. Tsuzuki nodded. The blonde slowly moved into the room, his arms behind his back, then he leaned against Tsuzuki's desk, placing a package on it, an envelope attached.

"This was left outside the door," Watari smiled. Tsuzuki looked at the gift then at Watari's smiling face. Could it be...? It didn't really matter though, the gift was far too cute.

It was a pink stuffed bunny, with soft fluffy ears and cute purple glass beads for eyes. Tsuzuki cuddled it close, enjoying the feel of fur on his cheek. Was this as soft as Hisoka's cheek? What would Hisoka's cheek feel like against his own?

"Er... Tsuzuki? The note?" Watari pressed. The violet eyed shinigami opened the note, reading it with a smile.

"My dearest Tsuzuki, to protect you from nightmares as I have long wished to."

Tsuzuki curled into a ball on his chair and cuddled the teddy. He'd finally get some undisturbed sleep. Watari left, smiling to himself and nodding to the person at the door.

Adorable... There was nothing more adorable than Tsuzuki asleep, clutching a pink bunny, smelling of cookies and knowing it was because you'd done it for him. His admirer picked up Tsuzuki's coat and placed it over him like a blanket, softly kissing his forehead before leaving for home.
