Rhett takes a cookie with a smile, thinking about his response, before deciding the best reply would be to take a large bite and chew thoughtfully.

The longer it took him to chew that bite, the better and more profound his reply would seem.

Oh thank gawd. She seemed visibly relieved for a moment as two of the Agents took cookies.

It was better than fighting.

"Stay around, yeah?" she said softly, mostly to Rhett, who seemed to be the one that wanted to leave. "There are all sorts of things planned. You wouldn't want to miss out just because of a squabble, right?"

Hopefully he didn't call her bluff. She smiled at him as if she knew what she was talking about, then turned to Josh and Lucien, offering her cookies.

Ooh, cookies. Lucien takes a considerable number, with a huge grin!

"Ah, thank you!"

He starts eating them happily. Tasty, and delivered with great timing! Maybe this would help raise the veil that had fallen over their little group.

Josh sits down and crosses his arms, looking away from everyone with a Hmph!

She let's Evie try to talk Rhett out of leaving, taking the time to look at Josh as he angrily sits down.

After a few moments for her bug friends to bring over another gift, she would drop a hoodie on his head.

"Merry Christmas, Mutt."

"Yeah. I'll...stick around, I guess."

Rhett nods, forcing a small smile.

Lucien's mouth is full of cookies, so he gives the other three senior agents a thumbs up instead of saying anything! That hoodie looks cool!

He pulls it off before looking at it! He starts to tear up as he stands up, holding it tightly!

"It's beautiful...!"

He runs over and gives her a kiss on the cheek before running towards the door.

"I'll be right back!"

Jan Di watches it all happen so fast, as usual. Her hand comes up to touch the cheek he kissed before blinking as he's gone.

That hoodie became more and more appropriate.

She turns to Rhett and smiles at him.

"Glad you are. You'll owe me a dance or something." she says, casually putting the locket around her neck.

That forced smile remains on Rhett's face when he sees the kiss, but becomes a little more genuine afterwards.

"I'd dance all night with you if you wanted me to."

"I look forward to it, Murdoch."

Okay, at this point, it was hard to ignore the people raising their voices.

She doesn't know what's going on, but apparently they're eating cookies now?

"Now that I think about it, I could stand to help myself to some food."

She let out a relieved sigh, glad everybody seemed to be relaxing. She glanced over at Jan Di and Rhett, trying to discern if there was anything she needed to do.

After all, it was Christmas, and she wanted to keep everybody in good spirits!

Setting the cookies back down on the table, she took a steadying breath. One crisis averted.

"Let's grab some then!"

Murdoch walks over toward Evie, expecting Fred to follow.

"You're giving out free food? You truly are a hero, Eve."

He glances around at Jan Di and the rest.

"I feel like we missed a bomb going off."

Evie motioned towards the group and then put a finger to her lips, trying to hush Murdoch.

"Go ahead and have as many as you like. I baked them this morning, so they're still fresh."

She smiled at him, then at Fred, the little girl she had spoken to briefly when she had first arrived. She didn't really know much about the situation, but she knew that it was only a few hairs away from exploding. She had just calmed things down.

"I have no clue what's going on," she admitted quietly, trying not to speak above a whisper. "But it's a pretty volatile situation."

To Rhett, "Hah. I don't know if I could."

"Not much of a party without music and dancing." she shrugs at Lucien before giving Murdoch an awkward smile.

If there was one thing she wanted to let die, it was what just happened. Especially since she wasn't convinced it was over. Josh would come back....and then who knows. She doubts Rhett and him would be fine all of a sudden.

"Christmas can make some people a bit crazy." she waves it off, glancing at Rhett as if meaning no offense.

"Christmas is stressful."

Rhett agrees, laughing lightly as he looks at Murdoch.

"I know I wasn't ready for.... everything, this year."

She giggled slightly and offered a few cookies to Fred, but turned her face over her shoulder to speak to the couple.

"Why don't you two get that dance? If your friend comes back, I'll try to distract him. If you're okay with it, I'll even get him to dance with me."

"Sounds like an idea."

Lucien nods! He doesn't want to take a side, he wants to figure out how to make all three of his friends happy however this plays out.

"Thank you."

Fred daintily takes the cookies and nibbles away at them.

"These are good!"

"Oh...thanks but..."

She glances at Rhett and shrugs.

"I mean if you want to. Right now."

Then looks back at Evie.

"Just don't...block Josh when he comes back. That'll make things worse if he thinks we're trying to keep him away. And I'm really not trying to do that."

"...it might be best to do it while he's gone. Maybe we'll finish before he comes back."

Rhett forces another smile. He doesn't want this to get any more out of hand than it already has.

"Or... well, we can just skip it, for tonight."

Evie tried to smile at the two agents, giving a light shrug. She could be subtle, but she understood that they didn't know her. They didn't really know anything about her.

"No, no, you two have fun!"

Lucien tries to smile at his friends!

"I won't block Josh, but I'll talk to him. He listens to me."

Because he knows Lucien can beat him up, even when he's in animal mode. But also because they're buddies!
