[Mrs. Brisby turns on her SFC, licking her lips uncertainly. After a few moments to gather her thoughts...]

I've been wondering, lately... I'm already getting pretty old. And I've been here for... quite a long time. For the most of summer, and now that I think it's winter... it feels like it's been so long. But I don't feel like my body is growing older.

Perhaps I'm just... worrying, needlessly. But I wonder... should I be paying closer attention to that? Maybe, since I don't have to run away from cats, or worry about predators, or that I have plenty of food...

How silly of me to worry about feeling healthy, I suppose.

[No! worrying and pan aches are not good. Not allowed.]

Hey, where you at, momma? I got some stuff what I wanna give to you.

[flyingdreams]

Give to me? Oh, do you mean for that Christmas thing?

I do have something for you! I'm at home, right now.

[420]

Aight! Let me grab what I got and I'll up and be there real soon, yeah?

[flyingdreams]

I'll be ready, Gamzee.

[420]

[Right! Just give him a moment to grab his gift and pull on his sneakers and off he goes. It doesn't take him that long to get there. He is focused for once and also running.

He skids to a halt, dropping down in a low crouch in front of her little house.]

Momma? I'm here.

[flyingdreams]

[She scoots out backwards through her door, dragging a bead necklace out of her house.]

Phew! This was taking up quite a bit of space in my small house! I found as many beads as I could.

I used purple, like yours, but I couldn't resist reds. I love the color red.

[420]

I love red too.

[He really does! Despite the significance red has in his society, he loves the colour. Well, he loves all the colours, but red is extra special. Mostly because nearly all the important people in his life are somehow related to the colour.

Dropping down to his knees, he kneels in front of her house, careful with his long horns as he peers at the necklace.]

Woah. It is real awesome looking. Thanks.

[flyingdreams]

I thought you'd like it! I really love beads, they're so... delightful!

[420]

Ah, can I?

[He holds out one hand. He wants to try that pretty thing on, okay?]

[flyingdreams]

Of course! It's yours, now!

[420]

Thanks.

[He picks it up carefully, before sliding it over his horns, his messy curls and his head, leaving it to come to rest loosely on the collar of his shirt. His fingers slide over the beads, enjoying the sight of purple right next to right.]

Ain't got no idea all how jazzed this makes me being.

[flyingdreams]

I'm so glad you're happy.

[420]

[He runs his fingers a bit longer over the beads, before he straightens up.]

Now yours!

[He digs into his sylladex with a wash of colour, before drawing out a purple draw-string bag. The fabric of the bag has painstakingly been filled with polkadots with a fabric marker as well as a hand drawn picture of the both of them.

Well, it is probably them. Gamzee is not that much of an artist.

The bag itself is filled with nuts and dried fruits and all that good stuff. It is also bigger than her house. He might not have thought this entire thing through.]

Here.

[flyingdreams]

My goodness! You got me so much!

[She giggles at the drawing.]

This is lovely, Gamzee...

[420]

I was gonna like all bake you some stuff, but you said you dig this kinda grub better.

[flyingdreams]

I do! They're like treats. They're very good for you.

Have you eaten them before?

[420]

They taste right awesome, yeah. I went and did all like try some while filling that sucker up.

[He puts everything in his mouth, okay. Everything.]

[flyingdreams]

They're so good! There's such a variety of flavors, I can't get enough of them!

[420]

Yeah. You done ever had fish? It is all like being the best. I up and used to chill at a hive near the sea. Done grubbed on all sorts of finbeasts.

[flyingdreams]

I haven't! But I'm sure it does taste good. As long as it's not too sweet.

[Luckily she's an omnivore.]

[420]

Maybe next time I up and all make me some, you could come and try.

[flyingdreams]

We should do that! I would very much enjoy that, Gamzee.

[420]

It'll be real awesome for you to visit more. The more peeps all together, the more fun, yeah?

[flyingdreams]

You'll have to cook for me, Gamzee, then. We should have a family dinner.
