❝ ahem. ❞ it's not so much a clearing of the throat as it is a clear enunciation of the word. there's a brief pause — an awkward moment of maintained eye contact that goes on just a few seconds too long. then, he presses something cold into venti's hands. it's a rock. a rich, dark blue one — spotted with spiderweb-like swirls of yellow-gray. sodalite; the "poet's stone." it only feels fitting that a bard would receive such a gift. ❝ you've been a POSITIVE INFLUENCE in the lives of people i would consider ... important to me. ❞ xiao. kazuha.

BIRTHDAYS WERE something the ARCHON got used
to after waking up within the recent months. Before most
didn't have the ability to celebrate or the joy to share. Now it
was different which brought him to this moment. VENTI
didn't expect to get gifts. He was just happen to be around
the people he cared about. So when REN approached him
with his gift, a small smile formed on his lips as he listened
to his words. He nodded his head and let out a laugh. He
took the stone and observed it for a moment before
tucking it close to his chest.
" Thank you Ren~. I will cherish this
close to my heart. May the winds
bless you on your endeavors~. "
