[biggerstick]

I hope it's lingerie for you.

[stickswithit]

While we're still here? I'm not sure if that would be the best choice. Would you like my present for you first or were you wanting to go first?

[biggerstick]

I'll go first.

[hands her a tiny, badly wrapped box]

[stickswithit]

[ takes the box and unwraps it to look inside ]

[biggerstick]

[it's a ring! Made of the same stuff the arc reactor is made of]

I wanted to add a miniature arc reactor to it instead of a stone, but it's turning out to be a bit harder than I expected. I'll add it to it as soon as I finish it.

[stickswithit]

[ staring at it in fondness ]

Care to put it on for me?

[biggerstick]

Sure.

[yay u got purty ring now]

[stickswithit]

[ wraps her arms around his neck and gives him a kiss ]

[biggerstick]

[YES I AM A GOOD BOYFRIEND]

[stickswithit]

[ DON'T YOU MEAN FIANCÉ, MISTER FUTURE POTTS-STARK? ]

I have a couple of things to give you now.

[biggerstick]

Is that so?

[stickswithit]

Mmhmm.

[ gets him the first one, it's squishyyyy ]

[biggerstick]

It's not alive, is it? I'm not a pet person.

[stickswithit]

It isn't. I wouldn't trust you with a pet.

[ enjoy a scarf and gloves for around camp. they match your suit, BUT IT'S NOT YOUR ONLY GIFT ]

[biggerstick]

You think I whine about being cold too much, don't you.

[puts the scarf on]

[stickswithit]

It's just a precaution when you're not glued to my side.

[ now here is a tiny box for you in return ]

[biggerstick]

Now I'm nervous.

[opens tiny box]

[stickswithit]

Why are you nervous? I'm the one that should feel like that.

[ oh look, you get a ring, too! it's just a simple band, though, in platinum ]

[biggerstick]

This isn't how tradition works, is it?

[stickswithit]

When has anything with you gone by tradition?

[biggerstick]

[puts it on and kisses her]

[stickswithit]

[ all the kisses ]

I hope you like it.

[biggerstick]

I love it.

[stickswithit]

I'm glad. So, do we tell the two that you terrorized with your party?

[biggerstick]

If you want to.
