A few presents had already gone in the mail, but most had been sitting hidden in Mortimer's workshop. He slipped out of bed late at night to add them to the appropriate piles. ( For Ali, Sasha, Clara, Ingress, Hook, Marie, Lyn, Douglass, Little Lyn and Little Morty. )

((I'm sorry I disappeared right when there was all this plot for Morty to react to. Real Life has been doing that thing it does. Bleh.))

Tomorrow his wife is going to marry another man. This is probably one of the strangest things Mortimer has ever had to deal with, even without the fact that the other man is Captain Hook. ( Cut for length. )

*Mortimer brings up the Captain's number on his cell phone and presses the call button. There were Things That Needed to be Discussed.*
