[ "it's not like i LIKE him or anything" - cairngorm about their boyfriend, 2019 ]
Hah... That's sort of the point with presents like that, I think. It's about celebrating the moment. It's another way of expressing your feelings to someone, too - it's like putting them into physical form, however brief.
[ not that he's surprised they would see it that way. He knows their limited time together hangs heavy over them - not just because they're stuck in Chroma, but because he's mortal. That's something that even humans have a hard time accepting, let alone ageless jewels that have never had to consider it before at all. Lupin's not so overconfident that he believes he can change their feelings in the span of a few months - even if he had his whole life, he probably couldn't. But he hopes he can at least soften the blow. That's part of his present, too.
Putting a hand in his pocket, he retrieves something and offers it to them with a flourish. Or... several somethings. ]
Well, it would be nice if these looked a little more romantic right now, after I've gone and said all that. [ he smirks wryly at himself, but his eyes have the usual fond mischief in them. ] A present from me to you, mon petit bijou.
