Thank you, so happy you loved it.
I did wonder if the goaticide to cliff dangling would work, so good to know you 'enjoyed' it. I don't think Lester enjoyed any of it... not until he got Becker. Poor Becker is glad he was cute while Lester mutters he' always awesome. It's a Secret Santa, it had to have a happy ending.
Lyle just had to make an appearance and cause trouble. He mutters he drove them back to the ARC, that counts as a rescue, doesn't it?

Glad you liked it and thanks for reading.
