@dcsiremelodis asked: “ Hm~ It’s your birthday today, isn’t it?” Desiré said as he leaned back into his chair and looked across to his younger brother. “ Of course I got you a present. Who would I be if I didn’t? “ He let out a little chuckle before gesturing for Rogers to bring in the present he had talked about. The butler walked over to Noir and stopped in front of him with the present sitting neatly on top of a little pillow. The gift was a rather expensive looking dagger, one that held the Mélodis family emblem. “ I assumed you would need something useful~ “
Happy Birthday White Noir | Accepting!
He stands at attention, stiff as always despite the day technically being the one he was given some leniency. Noir was always surprised when Desire gave him the time of day on any day, birthday not withstanding. Still, he lets his shoulders drop somewhat as his brother motions to the butler.
Eyes fell towards the item, and while his face remains mostly neutral, his eyes do widen ever so slightly. It was a beautiful dagger, and the fact that held the family emblem was a nice touch. He didn't think he actually owned much with the family emblem on it. He was apart of the family, yes, but sometimes he felt as if he wasn't fully accepted. So this was somewhat of a confidence booster. Perhaps that was what Desire was aiming for. Still, for this one moment, he tries not to consider his brother's ulterior motives and takes the dagger off of the pillow and looks it over, turning it over in his hands.
"Thank you." Noir allows just the slightest turn of his lips, and only for a moment. "It is a beautiful dagger, and it will indeed become useful."
