"Aibou...." he had roses in his hand and boxes balanced in his other hand. "Happy birthday." One of these boxes was really fragile... He kissed Yuugi's cheek, then set the boxes down before offering out the boxes, "Careful of the top one." The blown glass mug would... cause some trouble if it was broken.

"Thank you, Ate." He smiled brightly, kissing him tenderly. He leaned down to smell the roses. "Mmm... they smell amazing..." He looked over the boxes. "You shouldn't have, love..." He nuzzled him as he gently picked up the top box, setting it in his lap so he could open it. He gasped as he saw the mug, gently picking it up. "Oh Ate... it's beautiful..."

"So... I should probably let people know what I've been up to. I'm... well I'm graduating college today with my degree in Egyptology. I finally finished and presented my thesis. I wrote it on Atem and his life, and actually found a plausible way to finally name the unnamed pharaoh. And guess what? They accepted it! I can't believe it still... I'm going to Egypt later this month to sort of... observe the dig. I am still in awe..."

"Anyway, I should get ready, but I wanted to keep everyone updated. Let's hope I don't trip and fall walking across the stage."

"Aibou? Hey... can I make you dinner or something? I can order a mean pizza~"

He sighs and closes his book. "That sounds absolutely wonderful." He laughed and handed him the phone. "Show me your skills."

Taking a deep breath, she looked at her phone, taking a couple tries to accurately text a mass message with her shaking thumbs. [Text: At the hospital, Yuugi fell down the stairs and cracked open his head. I got a call while at the store...He's going to be okay. I don't know how long I'll be here.] With the way it looked, for the day at the very least, multiple, probably. She didn't want to leave his bedside.

"Fantastic," he smiled, watching her, "I do have another gift for you actually. One I hope you will enjoy very much."

"Oh? You did not have to, my friend, but I am certain I will enjoy anything you offer to me."
