[ Paul is quick to answer. He recognized the sound of Johnny's footsteps coming down the hall of their apartment building, and so could forego several of his usual security precautions before answering the door. When he does, it's clear he's been spending the day in by the casual state of his t-shirt with the old rip at the collar he mended himself paired with his second most comfortable pair of sweatpants.
His grin for Johnny only grows in size when he recognizes the jacket that he's wearing. His smile is nearly fit to split his face when he says: ]
Hello, sensei. I wasn't expecting you. Would you like to come in?
[Johnny gives an awkward sort of shrug seeing just how happy Paul seemed to be. It- Well it had been a long time since he had spent a holiday season being anything but alone. It was awkward but also felt sort of right.]
Yeah well- I was just in the area.
Thought I'd come by and see what you were up to.
[There's a bundled gift under his arm but he actually tries not to draw attention to that right away.]

But yeah.
That'd be great.
[There's an awkward point toward the jacket.]
This fits pretty great, by the way.
