Text; un: lycaon; Nov 3rd evening

[paraselenic]

[It had been a whirlwind getting resettled into his home after the chaos that was October. Even more so with recent events occupying his mind and the looming Supermoon.

He'd almost forgotten Molly's birthday. His gift was in his mind already, but his brain had to catch up. So he's in the kitchen, making treats for the Tiefling when he pauses, halfway through the process of making homemade gummi snacks when he realizes...

This is Mollymauk. Mollymauk doesn't tell people his birthday. The only way he found out was extortion.

DID HE TELL CALEB?

As awkward as it is, Lycaon hurriedly pulls up Caleb's contact in his phone, and starting to type.]

Caleb. I apologize for texting you out of the blue like this and so late in the afternoon but...I have to ask.

Did Mollymauk tell you his birthday is Nov 4?

un: gingerly

[tried_fire]

He had not mentioned that, no.

[He's not surprised. From the sound of it, Lycaon won't be surprised by that answer, either. They both know Molly well enough to know that just isn't how he works.]

Thank you for letting me know. Although the time frame is limited, at least I have a little while to come up with something suitable.

[paraselenic]

[Lycaon is typing...]

It figures. [That stupid Tiefling.]

Should you need any supplies, I have my ways of getting things in record time. I normally use them for bartending if I'm missing something imperative, but I would be happy to abuse my channels to get you anything you might need.

I appreciate the thought. But this...I think, needs to be something I resource on my own.

[It's much more important that it be sincere than that it be perfect. Their whole relationship and knowledge of one another is marred by the awkward imperfections of two people with limited resources and very different perspectives trying to work out how to relate to each other.]

It will mean more to him that way.

[paraselenic]

Haha, Of course. I would answer the same if it were me.

[His pride, or the same sentiment that Caleb had, it felt strange having someone help you with something that you want to be just from what you can do yourself.]

I'm sure he will treasure whatever it is you give him.
