Yancey,

We haven't known each other long and we seem to have interesting luck when we're together, but I'm glad that we got be mates. You've probably already got something like this but it can't hurt to have a backup. And I thought you might like the pattern and a more obliging set of dice anyway.

Happy Birthday!

Lachlan

PS - I can promise these biscuits won't make you carry on like Chloe's did. I can't promise they won't make you roll your eyes.

[Inside a neatly wrapped box, Yancey finds a handmade drawstring bag designed to look like a fish, only in Ribbonfin colors rather than black and white. The bag is filled with a collection of charmed, self-rolling dice. Alongside the bag, there are several Penguins. These chocolate biscuits are popular in Scotland and notorious for the terrible jokes on their wrappers.]

The surprise is plain in Yancey's face when Lachlan hands him a gift. And he sits and looks at the box for a long moment, face feeling warm. "Dude, you shouldn't have," he says, trying not to sound embarrassed as he pops open the box.

When he sees what's inside, he grins, ear to ear. And he's only got the bag in his hands for a few seconds before he observes, impressed, "Hand made, isn't it?" He opens the drawstring and is still peeking inside, trying futily to hide the color in his cheeks. "Oh my gosh, thank you!"

Lachlan had planned to use his upcoming Hermeticism class as a reason not to be around for this part but...Yancey's reaction had made it difficult to just hurry off and so here he is, smiling sheepishly as he watches the other boy unwrap his gift and admitting, "Handmade with some help from Ennis. It's...been a while since I earned that badge. But. You're welcome."
