It was several weeks later, when Christmas has past, that Robert decided Clarice deserved a gift in return for the present she had bestowed upon him. At first, he'd been insulted at the childishness of it. But after a few hours of coloring obsessively, he had actually come to appreciate the gift. So, in return, he found his very favorite t-shirt, that was covered in designs, and cut it all up. He used the shreds of cloth like paper mache, and covered a rubber ball with it, until it looked violently decorated.

Then he stuck one of his Transformers band-aids on top, and rolled it into the Life Labs until it stopped under her desk while she wasn't around.

He kind of hoped she didn't trip on it. Kind of.
