Stages[]
Investigate Leo[]
Expand for script.
- Minor: End of July to early August-- Leos in da hooouuse!~
- Willow: Minor can you pipe down. I can't focus on my work with your racket!
- MC: I don't need your "subtle" reminders. I'm quite aware when Gavin's birthday is.
- Minor: Then do you have any good ideas?!
- MC: No...
- Minor: Aww, c'mon, Boss. Put some thought into it.
- Willow: Quiet. You can tell from all the hair she has pulled out that she's putting thought into it.
- As Minor so enthusiastically pointed out, Gavin's birthday was at the end of July.
- In songs and movies, July is a month of azure blue skies and cool sea breezes.
- But in reality, it's summer crowds, scorching heat waves, and the maddening chirping of cicadas.
- MC: Although it's nice to go out when your birthday rolls around once a year...
- MC: ... I think that Gavin wouldn't be too keen on fighting the crowds.
- Willow: Places like the planetarium and aquarium are bound to be filled with screaming children. No thank you.
- Minor: Then how about getting out in nature? A little hiking, some swimming... Gavin loves the outdoors!
- Willow: I bet he doesn't love it in the summertime though.
- MC: I think we'd get heatstroke on the way out there.
- Attacked on all sides, Minor backed off. The spirited discussion once again fell into silence.
- Willow: To be honest, in July all anyone really wants to do is hang out indoors.
- Willow's despairing words actually gave me a new idea.
- My brain suddenly shifted from crowded public places to a cozy birthday celebration in Gavin's home.
- MC: That's right! Just hang out indoors!
- Minor: Boss, have you finally just totally given up on yourself?!
- MC: There's no rule that you have to go out for your birthday. They can be at home!
- Willow: True. Cook some food, sing happy birthday, play some games or whatever. That's fun too.
- Minor: I'd leave out the cooking part, or have you forgotten that our boss isn't exactly...
- MC: Isn't exactly what?!
- Minor: Nothing, nothing! You're a total double-threat, Boss. You're a pro in the boardroom and the kitchen.
- MC: I still have a whole month! I can totally organize the perfect at-home birthday!

Don't Let Him Know[]
Expand for script.
- After finally deciding on a gift for Gavin, I actually couldn't seem to get in touch with him.
- Minor: Gavin definitely won't make plans with anyone else for his birthday, Boss! Don't you worry!
- MC: I'm not worried about that. I'm just worried he'll have a mission that day...
- Minor: Boss, don't jinx it for Gavin!
- MC: But he seems like he works non-stop year round...
- Minor: Yeah... if it really doesn't work out, then just make it up when he gets back.
- Minor: In the past, if I didn't force him to celebrate his birthday, he'd just act like it was nothing.
- MC: Oh? I thought he was big on birthdays. He definitely remembered mine.
- Minor: That's because it was yours, boss! When has he not treated you more important than himself?
- I had no response. Thinking back on all the times Gavin made time to help me, I felt all warm and fuzzy, and a little moved.
- The phone one the table buzzed. Minor shook my shoulders in excitement.
- Still blushing, I ran off to the next room, took a few deep breaths, and answered the phone.
- Gavin: Busy? You took a long time to answer...
- MC: No, just attending to a small matter...
- Gavin's voice sounded a little fatigued. It was easy to imagine how hard he'd been working.
- Gavin: I just had some downtime, and I saw all those calls from you. Something wrong?
- MC: No-- nothing wrong!
- Gavin: That's good. I heard there's a cold front and rain coming. Dress warm. Don't wanna catch cold.
- MC: Yeah, you take care of yourself too.
- Gavin: Don't worry, I will.
- Gavin: If there's nothing else, I guess I'll go?
- MC: Wait! There is something!
- Gavin: Oh?
- I still hadn't thought of how to broach the subject, but I also didn't know when I'd be able to talk to him again, so I just came out and asked:
- MC: When will you be back this time?
- Gavin: I'll be back before next weekend, and I'll have a few days' break.
- Gavin: Is there a show you need help with? Or somewhere you wanna go?
- MC: It can wait till you get back. No rush.
- Or so I said. Inside, I was dying in anticipation for next weekend to get here.

A Klutz's Obsession[]
Expand for script.
- When I decided to make Gavin a lavender sleep mask, I looked up some videos on how to make one.
- But when I had my "finished product" in hand, I realized needlework was not as easy as I thought.
- I knew Kiki and Willow would be no help, but thankfully I still had Anna, master of domestic arts.
- For the past few days after work, Anna would switch gears and turn into my sewing instructor.
- Anna: Watch carefully. When narrowing, you wanna keep the stitching hidden.
- MC: Anna! Can you please go a little slower?!
- Although I knew that I wasn't very talented at handicrafts...
- ... comparing Anna's effortless work to the mess I was making, it was hard not to lose my cool.
- Just three days. I may have been at the narrowing stage, but this mask was far from being giftable.
- The thought made me more anxious, and my wayward needle pricked my fingertip.
- MC: Aaaah!
- Anna: Calm down. I'll help you with this wound first.
- In a few short days, just about all of my ten fingers had been wounded in action.
- Despite this, I still wanted to get this gift made so I could give it to Gavin on his birthday.
- Anna: Look carefully this time. Watch the tip of the needle and your fingers.
- MC: Right!
- There were some detours, but under Anna's patient tutelage, even I managed to make a passable mask.
- MC: Wow! Anna, thank you! Next time dinner's on me, and you can't say no!
- Anna: Alright, but wait till after you've got Officer Gavin's birthday feast sorted out.
- MC: Not to worry, I plan on doing the cooking myself that day!
- Anna: ... I'm suddenly a little worried for him.
- MC: Anna, even you're doubting me now?!
- Anna: Well, if that's what you've decided, then do your best.
- Even I didn't have the utmost confidence in my cooking, but I still thought the best gift for Gavin was a day of leisure and rest.
- I hope that Gavin can spend a nice, quiet day at home and have a relaxed, happy weekend.
