[He knows how important it is keeping up one's image. He's probably failed miserably in the emotionless bad boy one he'd been attempting to cultivate in his earlier teens but no one tell him that.]
[His image is super important, especially since it's one of the few things he still has here.
(And also because the social awkwardness is still an overwhelming force with Accelerator. He has no idea what he'd do if his image faltered. Probably crawl into a hole forever.)
Of course, he still has to do something about this whole gift thing. He still feels bad about Donnie building him the crutch, if he has to use Christmas to even things out then so be it.
(And also because it's a nice thing to do for his friend. Not that he'd ever admit that out loud, but....)
All the thoughts going around in Accelerator's head, so he finishes off his coffee and gets up.]
[Since he's here. Surrounded by plush coffee cans. The suggestion, it is strong. It's nice of Accelerator to be offering anything at all so Donnie decides not to tease him about it.]
He heads into the kitchen, disposing of his empty can and retrieving two new ones from the fridge. When it comes back into the living room he tosses one to Donnie as he goes to drop down onto the couch.]
[Donnie catches the can, leaning over the plushies again as he cracks the coffee open for a long drink. He pulls his phone out to fiddle with as he drinks. It's kind of weird being in such quiet company when he's used to so much louder, but it's still nice. Eventually he'll have to slip off but since Accelerator's not kicking him out right away, he's going to enjoy it while he can.]

Being thoughtful really isn't my style.
[But neither is going to the effort of coming up with a terrible gift.]
I'm absolutely sure I don't want any of them.

Well then, like I said, don't worry about it.

Okay, okay.
