[ the gifts hopefully get to the harbinger in time: a small, hand-knitted plush with the softest and most vibrantly-colored yarn Thoma could find, lumpy enough to be considered rotund, with two black beads for eyes, all making up a cute little whale. the treats are also handmade, but regrettably simple - cookies, crackers, decorated and wrapped up together with a loving hand.
the note is written sparsely - just in case it falls into the wrong hands. ]
Happy birthday, to my one and only. ♥ Come back safely for your real birthday treats.
[ without counting the birthday letters he received from his younger siblings, this gift is the sweetest thing anyone has given Childe... ever. even if it isn't signed, he can immediately tell, from the way it's neatly put together, that it's from the other half of his heart that he left behind back in Inazuma.
after enjoying the treats and reading the short message over and over again, Childe writes his response: ]
Real birthday treats? The cookies and crackers you made are more than enough for me. Thank you for making my day feel extra special. I hope to hear that you ate well in honor of my day~
I'll be back sooner than you think, with plenty of treats and trinkets for you as well.
Hey now! No lover of mine will ever pass their birthdays by with just cookies and crackers. A feast and a proper cake await you in Inazuma... and then some.♪
I ate well. I missed you, so I made one of the dishes you taught me to make. It wasn't as good as yours, but maybe it was because I was missing the company. Have you been well? Any good fights come your way?
As long as I get to see you, any treats and trinkets you bring with you will have to wait their turn. The real treasure is you. And I can't wait to have you all to myself, like a dragon hoards its treasure~
Perhaps I need to hear the details of this 'and then some' that you speak of...
I'm glad to hear that you were actually able to learn something from me despite the many distractions. Heh. And yes, I've been fairing well, but haven't come across too many good fights. The hilichurls aren't really that entertaining when it comes to fighting them. While the treasure hoarders like to talk big but they never come through with their promises.
A dragon? Ah, be still my heart. You know it's been a dream of mine to fight one of those.
Don't you want to be surprised? It's everything I'm quite sure you like though.♪
You underestimate yourself - and me. Although if I'm being honest, those distractions taught me a lot, too. Ah, hilichurls and treasure hoarders. Are they even easier than the rogue samurai you can find wandering around Inazuma?
Is that so? I may have to make your dream come true somehow. Why a dragon?
