This is M. I'm most likely out punching someone. Don't worry, they deserve it.

Probably.

I'll call you back later.

delivery, a few days into February

[justlittle]

[ Delivered to M's... well, to somewhere M would be able to find it, as his Apartment doesn't exactly have an address... a colorful basket of flowers in the shape of a purple and white unicorn. Attached is a note: ]

Happy Valentine's Day to a special little girl! With love, Bean.

[M has his mail sent to an asset, who lets him know there's something to pick up. So pick up he does.

It goes right onto the center of his kitchen island.]

Thank you, Bean. I've been a very good girl all year.

[ Bean, meanwhile, has no idea his delivery went so sideways. To him, the plant he sent was a small succulent with a note of thanks for always being there to look out for Bean. ]

What the hell are you talking about?

[heliophilic]

[M takes a picture of his beautiful gift, then sends that along with a close-up of the card.]

The rainbow ears are the real touch. Sure, most people would say the horn, but what else is the horn supposed to be?

No, the ears are what really lets me know what a good girl I've been.

[justlittle]

That is not what I ordered.

How could they have gotten it so wrong?

[heliophilic]

So you DON'T think I'm a good girl?

[justlittle]

If that's how you want to self identify, far be it for me to stop you.

[heliophilic]

So what were you really going for then?

[justlittle]

Just a simple thank you, for all the help you've given me.
It was supposed to be one of those little cactuses that are easy to care for.

[heliophilic]

You're a good kid, Bean.

I appreciate the sentiment either way.

[justlittle]

Would have been a better gift if they'd sent the emossin thing I paid for.

[heliophilic]

I like to think they delivered your true feelings to me, kiddo.

[justlittle]

Don't hold your breath.

[heliophilic]

Luckily I don't have to breathe, then.

[justlittle]

Wait. Really?

[heliophilic]

Not indefinitely like Apollo seems to be able to, but long enough to make sure you pass out well before I do.

[justlittle]

Then I guess I won't hold MY breath.

[heliophilic]

Fair.
