— "Happy birthday. I got you this pocket astrolabe... The same stars witness the fate of the human race today as did yesterday, and as will forever. May they cast their gaze upon you, and may they stay with you always, through the desert and across the ocean, until you reach your destination."

she's surprisingly attentive (sometimes) even while she's drowsy, so if you were to ever go on about something you'd like, she'd make a mental note of it.

prepares your present a few weeks away from your birthday, even if she has a hard time balancing her schedule and working on it. (she eventual pushes through!!!)

when she finally reveals the gift to you, it's full of trinkets you've mentioned or hinted at wanting over the course of your friendship (or relationship🤷🏾‍♀️), and a hand written letter talking about how much you mean to her.

is confused when you ask how she remembered all these things. and she just stares at you like: "why wouldn't i remember that?"

nonetheless, her gift is very sentimental!

— "... I have a secret hideout there, and I keep some glowing sea creatures as pets... I just want to give you a birthday experience like you've never had before, and then give you my birthday wishes... Will you give me the chance to do that?"

definitely doesn't know what to get you. he wants to get you everything but doesn't want your present to be too flashy or too subtle.

eventually resorts to his siblings for advice, but their advice doesn't seem to help him either.

he ponders long and hard about it, and eventually decides to build you something, (and take you somewhere.)

you know those lego flowers?? that's what i'd imagine he'd make for you, but obviously not lego. and somehow he'd find a way to make them bloom when you hold them.

tells you to meet him close to the beach on your birthday, and takes you to this pretty cove on the edge of it.

he's very shy when he gives you your gift, his head down, and his voice barely audible when he wishes you a happy birthday.

— "I guess I'll just share what I've got so far, then. "Sun and moon rejoice / Birds of dawn sing songs anew"... Wait, don't say a word, I think the final line is coming to me... Yes, how about.... "Far from home, with you." Anyway, Happy Birthday. Let's go and get you some cake, shall we?"

writes poems for you as your gift. he conveys things easily with his words, so it only makes sense.

it's definitely something you'll have to decipher to understand the meaning, but when you do it's really sweet.

overall, his poems are about his experiences with you, and how much he appreciates you.

100% tear jerking, and if it wasn't for his amazing senses, he would've thought he you didn't like his gift if you cried.

his choice of words is so perfect, how couldn't you shed a tear?? but anyway, he's definitely on the list for one of the most thoughtful gifts.
