[Euri is in the library! Dog and Nirel are there too, but they've wandered off to go look at fairy tales or something more interesting than the section Euri is currently standing in front of.

The romance novel section.

She's got a little stack of books by her feet, and she's flipping through another one, skimming it for... something. She looks very determined!!]

Nothing in this one.... [She's mumbling to herself before putting the book back on the shelf. She'll run her finger over the spines as she starts reading book titles.]

"How to Woo a Reluctant Lady"? Hmmm... "Let Sleeping Rogues Lie"...."Detective John Sanders' Erotica Noir"??

Really?? [Because that's exactly what she's looking for!! She'll start grabbing books at random.]

All of these are better than romance novels??

[birdmetaphor.livejournal.com]

Hey, whoa--at least check the titles first.

[picks up one of her books and... puts it back sjlfdk.]

They're different from romance novels. We'll say that.

[actionlaced.livejournal.com]

What do you mean?

[She'll glance down at the books she's holding.]

[birdmetaphor.livejournal.com]

I mean this is instructional stuff. [...he looks back at the books. 'instructional' is kind of a blanket term, here.] Sort of.

[actionlaced.livejournal.com]

Well....

[This stuff look kind of.... explicit.... but still!]

'Instructional' was what I was looking for, actually....

[birdmetaphor.livejournal.com]

Then good, you're in the right place. Do me a favor and look up oral, would you?

[HE CLAPS HER ON THE SHOULDER AND THEN... starts to walk away... :')]

[aksljfalskjflkajlkfj she blinks and fidgets, then takes a step after him.]

Do you want your birthday present??

[birdmetaphor.livejournal.com]

[--stops. turns around.]

My what?

[actionlaced.livejournal.com]

Your - birthday present. I told you I'd get you something, remember?

[birdmetaphor.livejournal.com]

[oh... gosh, he wasn't expecting to actually get anything. he'd kind of assumed she'd forget and the whole thing would be fine. that sure shows him.]

I-- Well, yeah. I mean, if you went through all the trouble, of course.

[actionlaced.livejournal.com]

Okay! It's in my room. [She'll grab his arm and start dragging him out of the library c:]

[birdmetaphor.livejournal.com]

--Okay. [WILL WALK, THANK YOU]

[actionlaced.livejournal.com]

[Thankfully it doesn't take long to get to her room. She's unlocking the door with a hex, and stepping inside, placing her books on a nearby table. Then she'll go over to her nightstand and dig around until she pulls out a little box! It's small enough to easily fit in a person's hand.]

It's homemade, so it's not that great. If you don't like it you can just tell me and I'll get you something else.

[birdmetaphor.livejournal.com]

[oh goodness. he's really not sure what to expect, so he'll just... take the box and open it?]

[actionlaced.livejournal.com]

[It's a slightly derpy-looking knitted robin (http://i.imgur.com/LcFOV.jpg) c: She isn't that great at knitting but she put a lot of effort into it!]

[...he picks it up out of his box, slowly registering what it is...]

[birdmetaphor.livejournal.com]

[...and this stupid little grin starts to spread from ear to ear.]

It's a Robin! Hah--like me!

[actionlaced.livejournal.com]

[AWWWW]

Yeah! Do you like it?

[birdmetaphor.livejournal.com]

I love it! [squishes it a little. oohhooo it's so cute. C:]

[actionlaced.livejournal.com]

[Awww c:]

Ah, that's great!

[birdmetaphor.livejournal.com]

...Thanks. [awhaaa feelings. he sort of... puts it back in the box 'cause he's not sure what to do with the box otherwise.]

[actionlaced.livejournal.com]

[She'll lean up and kiss his cheek lightly.]

You're welcome.~
