"Happy Birthday!" Maggie exclaims coming in with a small chocolate cake, a number of candles lit ready for Scarlett to blow out. "I wasn't sure what to get you... So.." Maggie draws attention to her acoustic guitar hanging off her shoulder. "Pick a song and I'll play it for you. I mean I might be rusty and might need to learn it if I don't know it that well... But I'll try my best" (@c0mplex-heroes )
as a kid, it was no secret that to scarlett, the gifts were one of the best parts of her birthday. however, as she grew up, things changed a little. of course, she still loved receiving gifts, but not necessarily material ones or very expensive things— a cake and music meant much more than anything else.
scarlett blew out the candles and prepared to cut the cake, her attention largely on maggie. “can i really pick any song i want ?” she smiled and leaned back in her chair for a moment. “do you know any taylor swift songs ? because you can play any of them. and don't worry, i won’t judge. i don’t know how to play, so i really admire everyone that does.”
scarlett's birthday 2023 !! ( let's pretend it's still november 25th for a moment. )
