Symbolic Animal of Gallifrey
Elliott had his theories as to what it could be, but kept his mouth shut. They, specifically Cal wanted it to be a surprise so he was going to make sure it stayed that way. He could tell that Cal wanted to do this for him, a way of making up for all the years she hadn't been there for him, too see him grow up. And he really appreciated it, the gesture showed to him that even though she was older Cal was still the older sister he remembered, the one who'd sneak him into movies, and force him to read books she considered good in an effort to 'culture' him. "Don't give me any more then, or I'll figure it out, and ruin Cal's fun." "Yes, listen to him, my brother speaks words of wisdom..... for once." she finished with a teasing smirk.
Elliott grabbed a book from the table and faked throwing it at Cal. She flinched on instinct, ready to grab the book out of thin air, or fake an over dramatic injury to save face if it did hit her. This caused Elliott and Cliff to start laughing. And the laughter spread infectiously, first to Cal, who saw the funny side, then Chas and Dan and John. Rinaa and Jay joined in slightly after everybody else, but there laughter was in no way less genuine.
