"My lord! Will chocolates suffice? Maybe a poppy accompanying it would be nice?" Popshi comments, handing over a small box of chocolates along a plucked poppy lying on top of it. He hands it over, cheeks flushed as he pushes the gift over to the man. It's not nearly enough, but it will have to suffice. "May your love for all burn for eternity."

"W...wait, aren't poppies --" There's no time to finish the thought, in part because of the gift presented to him is so heartfelt -- at least, if the flush to the other's cheeks is any indication -- that he can't possibly even consider turning it down. With a small, fond smile, the box is taken carefully into gloved hands, careful not to shift it too much and topple the flower from its resting place.

"Likewise, my dear friend. Likewise." With just as much care, Elwin leans in, placing an equally as small yet fond kiss to Popshi's cheek. Much the same way that Popshi feels that his gifts aren't enough, so too does the Archduke feel about his offered gift in return. It's small, too small to convey the magnitude of his gratitude, but it will have to suffice for now. "May you never lose your charm and fiery passion."
