Or maybe I'm trying to avoid the issue and any.... "surprise" that generally happens on this day. I haven't forgotten.

Though, I suppose I am free at any given time. I do not work at the Bakery today.

Ah, that makes this easier. Will you meet me at noon then? Place of your choosing.

A place of my choosing. Even then that sounds suspicious. I suppose our usual place of the park will do.

I'm hurt. Have I ever given a reason for you to mistrust me so?

The park will do, I shall see you then.

[ooc: oh what the heck, quicklog?]

No, you haven't, but you are as clever as you are charming and beautiful.

Very well.

[ooc; Yes!]

[So she's there at noon, hiding the box behind her back. She would insist he open it, whatever happened, and if he didn't like it, she didn't care. It was the gesture that mattered, right?]

[He resists any of those urges to come early and scope out the place. He'll arrive at noon and approach. There's a definite head tilt at the hands behind her back]

Hmm.

Still so skeptical, I see. [She mock sighs] Thank you for coming, though. I...I have something for you.

Would you have me any other way? [He's teasing yes] So you seem to be hiding.

However, I'll overlook this unwarranted mistrust for now. [She knows he's teasing, and holds out the box. Wrapped in plain white paper, under it is a simple black box, and the present inside the box.]

Happy birthday, Black.

Still, [He begins as he takes the box without hesitation] there is no one else I trust more than you.

[Besides himself.... He starts to unwrap it, picking it apart before looking inside] A rabbit?

And the same is said for me to you.

...Yes, a rabbit (http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_r2BjbLmrYdw/SkcZFtzNHvI/AAAAAAAAAeM/ChvuhlkisJ0/s1600-h/01_b.jpg). I thought...you might like it. [Well, now he saw it. She still wasn't sure if he liked it, but it was revealed.]

[His hand moves between the ears and he pulls it out. Rabbits were always a huge ping for him. He's quite curious of the gift until he sees the eye patch and then the entire thing as a whole.

Like he should know it from somewhere.] .....

I really like it.

I'm glad you do!

[She had noticed his liking of rabbits, and that had contributed. But something about that specific rabbit had called to her. Otherwise she wouldn't have given it to him.]

...It reminded me of you.

I really do.

[He pulls it closer and looks down at it, looking for any sign of a tag where it can be made from.]

... It feels like it should belong in my hands.

Then it's good it returned to them.

[If only she could have read the box it came in...she could help.]

Any reason why?

[He curls his fingers on the sides and gives it a squeeze. Soft material. High quality. It must've cost a bit]

It just does in some way. Like I'm suppose to know what this is.

[And it's strange because the demon is slightly smiling]

[Almost cute, Black and the bunny. Now all he needed to do was hug it]

I see.

[That was the second time a birthday gift had pinged someone...was she a magnet for it or something?]

Is it a good feeling?

[He kind of wants to, but he's not going to. At least not out in public. ]

It's a really good feeling, Juliet. Something good for once. A reminder. Something.

[Do as you like, it's yours.]

Something good for once. I'm glad.

[A good reminder. More than she could have asked for to give him.]

[Perhaps on the couch while reading a book. Who knows]

Yes. I bet he'd know what it means if he was still here.

[He's grateful, for once]

[Or while he pretends to sleep?]

When he comes back, you can ask him.

[The Tree's in a rare benevolent mood. Best not to question it.]

A very good day indeed~ and yourself, Gai?

I am glad to hear it! Mine is going well also.

I love that icon
