With the jubilant festivities of the holiday season having been concluded for night of Christmas Eve, the manor had finally been dressed in placid silence. The sprawling collection of gifts that had been assigned to all of the members of the household were awaiting their recipients underneath and around the grand, elegant tree painstakingly decorated by the courtesy of Rigellia's expertise. A light, gentle snowfall veiled the outside as if the expansive structure had been isolated from any disturbance or relevance to space.

From within the endearing comforts of Calypso's bedroom, Karma would tremble and arise from his short-lived rest while waiting for her much-needed company. After hopelessly rubbing the exhaustion from his unfocused eyes, they would eventually adjust to the lunar illumination to the make out the current time being 11:50 PM being displayed on the nearby clock. Realizing she had yet to conclude the day with a notion of worry stirring within his scattered thoughts, he slid off of the silken sheets to stand on unsteady legs; quietly exiting to begin descending the spiral staircase leading to the east wing's lounge room. With his awareness gradually coming to, he would suddenly freeze in place with his respiration nearly ceasing as he came across a pleasant, yet nerve-wracking sight.

The Sea Guardian Savior's curvaceous figure was seated in front of the hospitable glow of the fireplace and studiously reading her book; perfectly framed by her favorite maroon lingerie with her quaint reading glasses in use for surveying text. With his eyes frequently darting about and his ears rearing back from the mounting indecisiveness, the Latios grew fearful of interrupting her state of mind as the encroaching chill of the winter proceeded to torment his shivering body. He would soon ascend one step backwards before his instincts suddenly halted his movements.

Upon hearing the sudden, reluctant footstep, Calypso raised her head away from her book and turned to see Karma's anxiously peeking out from the central support of the stairwell. After removing her glasses with her heart welling with elation, she welcomed his arrival by showing a warm, comforting smile which seemed to immediately start fending off the agitation of frigid air surrounding him. A knotting sensation would twist his insides as she softly patted her lap in an inviting fashion with an unseen force continuing to tether him in place. After several long, drawn out moments, he would hesitantly step down from the rest of the stairs and begin to obediently inch towards her with time seeming to slow to a crawl to his senses; eventually finding himself standing before her graceful image towering over him even as she lounges.

After carefully climbing up and settling into the Lugia's lap with his wings tucked inward, a faint blush would surface across the Latios's muzzle along with a dull tightness winding around his throat. While shying away slightly out of notion of unworthiness, his arms would begin to surround her waist with a delicate touch as if worrying that an artifact entrusted to him he would easily break. He would treat every moment spent with her as if each would possibly be the last one ever to occur in his life as he perceived her to be an angel sent down by the Will of Arceus. Sensing his earnestness to show his affection, she would cordially rest one of her large hands upon his back; causing him to nestle securely and comfortably in between her voluptuous, cushion-like breasts which painted a vivid, rose-red hue upon his flustered expression. With a straining effort, he would lift his head upwards for an ethereal tranquility to grace his restless consciousness as his sight met with the sapphire wonder illuminating her eyes.

Without a single word stirring the room, Calypso knew exactly what was needed to ease Karma's longing which she could feel within his body subtly tensing up with anticipation. After slowly closing her eyes, her peaceful, mystifying voice would start to flow into Karma's hearing as if becoming the boundless, moonlit sea to herald his journey into bliss. With a pacifying warmth enveloping his muscles and his soul welling with everlasting joy, he allowed her oceanic serenade to intertwine with the pleasure of her Darkness embedded within his existence; signaling its completion of fulfilling the emptiness he had harbored for so long.

With the hour drawing near and her enrapturing melody nearing its finality, Calypso steadily revealed her vision once more before her brimming emotions would nearly overcome her from seeing Karma's eyes welling with tears. Without a second thought to interject, she brought her arms around his small frame in a cherishing manner; guiding him into her safe, heartfelt embrace as the distances between their faces would soon diminish. After closing their eyes, their mouths would soon intimately lock to form their romantic gesture lasting into the wintry night.

The two had become each other's greatest gift they could ever receive.
