[Sherlock shakes his head.]

No. Not inside.

[Instead, he pulls out a small, wrapped package (plain grey paper, and a small blue ribbon) and hands it to her.

Inside, is a wooden puzzle, with a small note that says "find the T".]

[She would appear hurt by his denial if she weren't too distracted by the box. Nill takes it, and carefully tears the paper away. She looks at the puzzle, wide-eyed, already enthused to figure out how to solve it. She looks up at him, obviously excited.]

[A small smile tugs at his lips, and he straightens up.]

I'll expect a report, when it's completed.

[Then, quickly, he signs out the words as he says:]

Happy Birthday.

[brevipennate]

[Nill watches his hands with interest and a little bit of awe; she isn't sure what he'd just done, but she was sure that it meant something. Almost automatically, she raised her hands and tried to mimic his movements. She failed miserably, of course, but it had been a solid effort. Having the puzzle box in one hand hadn't helped much.]

[The smile widens, before he puts up a hand.]

Enjoy it.

[And then leaves with a flourish because what are goodbyes.]
