To be fair, there was only one other person Togusa had been planning to spoil for Christmas, and that guy abruptly changed age categories on him.

Togusa practically beams at Shinji's reaction. "Well. Yeah. It was important to you so it was important to me. There's enough other things going wrong, you know? Christmas."

"Christmas should go right."

If there's one thing that should go right, it's Christmas. Shinji can't argue with that even if he wanted to.

"...Thanks." It's a little awkward, but no less genuine for that.

"Not right now 'cause it's late, but if you want to come over and play Smush sometime, that'd be okay."

Togusa keeps the smile on his face. He won't shake off Shuji's attempt to make it back up to him, even though the kid owes him nothing. "I'd like that."

Give him two weeks and he'll turn into an Ice Clambers main

"I'll get out of your way before I wake anybody else up. But. Merry Christmas." There's a little extra meaning on the words this year.

You could call Shuji a kid and he would probably just accept that.

"Merry Christmas." Shinji smiles a bright smile. "You too, Tachikoma."

Even if the robot only has a limited idea of what Christmas is, it still gets holiday goodwill.
