[traumatology]

the answer will still be nothing.

[white_widow]

Okay, fine, I will come up with something myself.

[traumatology]

you're not going to take no for an answer are you?

[white_widow]

If you can give me a better reason than because (not a reason) or not wanting or needing anything (sounds fake), I will.
But right now it sounds like you not allowing yourself to have nice things or celebrations and I don't think I would be a very good friend if I let that stand.

[traumatology]

my gift can be you buying a gift for yourself.

( can he get away with that? )

[white_widow]

Mm, not that. But I will offer you a different compromise: it can be something that the whole team will use.

[traumatology]

you have something in mind that fits that bill?

[white_widow]

I can think of a few good options, yes.

[traumatology]

gonna tell me what they are?

[white_widow]

That's not how gifts work, you don't get to know ahead of time.

[traumatology]

but it's not solely a gift for me, it's for everyone.

god its not monopoly is it?

[white_widow]

Yes. So no one gets to know what it is.

No, it is definitely not monopoly.

[traumatology]

thank god.

i think we would definitely kill each other if you did that.

[white_widow]

Oh, yes. It would be an absolute bloodbath.

[traumatology]

pretty sure someone would get stabbed with the board.

[white_widow]

And/or made to swallow the pieces and the little houses.

[traumatology]

that'd be fun to experience coming out the other way.

[white_widow]

I'd have to question that definition of fun.

[traumatology]

i'm sure someone would find it fun.

[white_widow]

Someone weirder than us, in at least one way.

[traumatology]

someone like your dear old dad.

[white_widow]

Thanks for that gross idea. He would probably say it was something to be proud of.

[traumatology]

hey i can't help being right. he's an odd guy.

[white_widow]

We are all odd, to be fair. He's just the loudest about it.

[traumatology]

all right, i'll give you that.

but he'd still be the one to brag about shitting something out that was in some weird shape.
