The old one got the brute force remodel, huh?

[graveflowers]

Yep. A big ol' robot elbow to the face.

[watcherjunior]

Ouch. Poor room. Were you able to, like, salvage anything?

[graveflowers]

Yeah, little stuff, books and clothes and weapons, all that junk. Dovan offered to rebuild Lucia's crib, which was sweet.

[watcherjunior]

Sometimes, the little stuff is all the matters. The keepsakes, that kinda stuff. [ Not that she personally has much of those. But she can understand it. ] That is super sweet of him.

[graveflowers]

Yeah. I didn't think I was sentimental or materialistic, but I totally am.

[watcherjunior]

It's not until you don't have your stuff any more that you realize how much you liked your stuff.

[graveflowers]

God, Dawn, I really love stuff.

[watcherjunior]

I know. I really love stuff, too. I just don't have much of it.

[graveflowers]

Well, stick around for your birthday and we'll get you a metric shit ton of stuff. [ she loops her arm through dawn's. ] You're going to stay for a while this time, right?

[watcherjunior]

Of course I'm sticking around. I'm ready to be home. [ She grins, tugging their joined elbows. ] ... you know, I never did pick a birthday.

[graveflowers]

Well, let's get on that shit! Charming helped me pick mine, do you want help picking yours?

[watcherjunior]

Please? I mean, there's literally 365 choices, so help narrowing that down would be great.

[graveflowers]

Okay, pick a season.

[watcherjunior]

[ She thinks for a long moment. There aren't any memories of before the Veil that would influence her decision, so she has to rely on what she's experienced here. ]

Late fall. Like when things are turning cold and all the leaves have finished turning colors and are falling off.

[graveflowers]

Well, it's better than winter. Is December too close to Christmas?

[watcherjunior]

Early December isn't. Like, in the first week of December. Anything past that, and people are gonna try to cheap out on me in the gift department.

[graveflowers]

How do you feel about the first week of December then?

[watcherjunior]

After Thanksgiving, before Christmas. That sounds like the best sweet spot.

[graveflowers]

Now we just gotta pick a number, one through seven.

[watcherjunior]

Let's go in the middle. December 4th. That sounds like a good day, yeah?

[graveflowers]

I like it! And now I have a lot of time to plan for presents.

[watcherjunior]

You know you don't have to get me a present, let alone multiple presents.

[graveflowers]

I have an incomprehensible amount of money in my bank account because I don't spend money on like... anything? Ever. So let me have this one thing to spoil you with.

[watcherjunior]

[ She's going to continue objecting, she really is. But she doesn't. ]

Okay. I will submit myself to spoilage for birthday times.
