[Someone's kind of excited.]

Lord Sigmund, you've spoken with Capell already, haven't you? If it's alright, I'd like to see you as well!

Also, Lady Svala, I've finished what you requested. I'll bring it to you shortly.

[Here's an Edward waiting by the door!]

My lord, happy birthday!

[Sigmund is amused.]

You were behind all of this.

[Action]

[vermified]

[Edward's kind of proud now.]

Yes, my lord. Were you surprised?

[Action]

[grinnvalesti.livejournal.com]

[He should be.]

Yes. You both caught me off guard.

[Action]

[vermified]

[Ufufu.]

You shouldn't be surprised, then, to learn that I have a gift for you as well.

[Action]

[grinnvalesti.livejournal.com]

I am not surprised, though I could not be sure what it is.

[Action]

[vermified]

I won't keep you waiting.

[Edward steps away briefly to the closet, emerging a moment later with the flute case and presenting it to him.]

Capell's gift influenced my decision, obviously.

[Sigmund smiles, taking the flute case and examining it.]

I am pleased that you worked together with him for this. This is a beautiful case.

[Action]

[vermified]

I hope it fits. We didn't have time to compare the gifts.

[Sigmund examines it again.]

It looks to be the right size. Thank you, Edward.

[Action]

[vermified]

You're welcome, my lord! I'm glad you like it. I'm sorry it's not more exquisite or fancy; I would have carved it, but I have no talent with wood.

[Action]

[grinnvalesti.livejournal.com]

It is more than enough, Edward. It is an wonderful case for my new flute.

Do not be ashamed of it. Your skills as a smith are excellent.

[Action]

[vermified]

I'm not ashamed, merely wishing I could do more. Still, if you like it, that's all that matters.

[Action]

[grinnvalesti.livejournal.com]

You have done enough already. I have a flute and a case for it, on top of the opportunity to play with my son. I am quite happy.

We were going to attempt some sort of birthday meal, but neither of us can cook very well.

[Action]

[grinnvalesti.livejournal.com]

[Okay, Sigmund chuckles at that.]

And you did not take the easy way out?

[Action]

[vermified]

I thought it might be best to first ask you what your favourite kind of soup is, my lord!

[Action]

[grinnvalesti.livejournal.com]

Hmm. A tough question. I think a simple cheese and broccoli would do.

[vermified]

Very well, my lord.

[Action]

[grinnvalesti.livejournal.com]

This sounds like it might not be to your liking.

[Action]

[vermified]

It's your birthday, my lord. What I like is irrelevant.

[Action]

[grinnvalesti.livejournal.com]

We are lovers. What you like is always relevant.

[Action]

[vermified]

[Fffffff warm and fuzzy feeling, courtesy of Sigmund. You win a smile.]

I am not a fan of broccoli, but with cheese, it should be tolerable. Otherwise, I can easily make something else for myself.

[Action]

[grinnvalesti.livejournal.com]

[Sigmund rather likes that smile. He's getting all sorts of nice things for his birthday!]

That means there will be more for myself.
