[January 26th is a day Griffin always thinks of as his 'birthday', though he's been around longer than that, by far. In fact, it doesn't take much for him to remember being very young and staring in wonder at French ships coming into the Lakes for the first time. Yet, that extremely frigid day in January has always stuck out, moreso that any memory ( Read more... )

Hiya. [ ... ] Been looking for you.

[Well, speak of the devil. He doesn't move from his spot, shoulders raised just a tad.]

Oh, have ya?

Yeah. I thought I'd, ah -- bake a cake, or something. I wanted opinions on what flavor to make it.

You're being surprisingly civil. It's not gonna say, 'HAHA HAPPY BIRTHDAY, LOSER' on i'?

[Hopefully, it won't be arsenic-flavored.]

Oh, hey, thanks!

[He's actually surprised! Most Yoopers seem to forget about it.]

[ This was extremely hard to approach, to be honest while Griff saw Gabe as a brother -- Gabe was ... not sure how to see him. Illinois was his brother and well, because of that he couldn't ever properly comprehend someone being nice to him and always met it with a strange sort of suspicion as if they wanted something. However, in his own awkward fashion as always he had a box all wrapped up and ready.

He probably wouldn't have much words. As always when he opened his mouth, he was terrible with wording things. So Gabe just stands there holding the box, nudging him with it. Come on Griff, notice him?

When Griff opens it, it's a box of cheese with some Leinenkugel's Big Eddy Russian Imperial Stout. With of course, at the bottom a Detroit Red Wings Sweatshirt. (Largest he could find, of course.) ]

[He knows probably neither of them return the feelings, and he's alright with this, figuring it would probably make everything all the more complicated somehow if they did. Besides, it's nice to say he has relatives, even if it may not be complete truth.

So, he takes the box, opening it and grinning widely, despite his earlier feelings.]

Aw Gabe, ya shouldn've. [Just to be sure, he checks the size of the sweatshirt.] An' my size, too! Ya gotta be psychic.

[ It's not a matter of returning the feelings as ... not realizing what a brother should be like. Or a family for that matter. However he knows Griff is a good person, so ...

Don't say anything stupid, or you're going to hurt his feelings and look like a -- ] I just got the biggest one.

[ -- dumbass. ]
