"This is Johnny. You know what to do."

Threaded | Top-Level Comments Only

[On the evening of February 13, a white envelope is slipped beneath the front door of Johnny's apartment unit. On the front is cursively written To Johnny in black ink. Inside is a small piece of off-white card paper, and a thin bar of mint chocolate wrapped in foil.

The card has the following handwritten, unsigned message:]

Dear Johnny,
Since I've arrived here, you've caught my eye around the Hold.
Please accept this gift as an expression from me, an admirer, of my affection for you.
Happy Valentine's Day

[I can assure you that Johnny has an angry and embarrassed fit upon reading this. He's never gotten a Valentine before!]

[After their conversation, Walter sends along his room number as promised.]

Unit 131.

[Consider it done! Before the zombies hit, Walter is left a box with three pairs of jeans in the size he asked for, as well as three plain-colored t-shirts in a men's size medium. Nothing fancy, but it should work.]

[Some time while Johnny was gone, Blaine slipped into his room and left his presents. He doesn't bother to wrap the electric guitar. He could have, but eh. Fuck it. He leaves it at his bedside on a stand, like it just belongs there and is totally not anything new at all.

What he does leave in the box and wrap in plain blue paper is the solar powered amp. It's right in the center of the bed, drawing attention away from anything else in the room. The tag that is attached to it doesn't have a name. Instead there is a penis drawn on the card in the 'FROM' blank. It's an anatomically correct penis drawing, too. This is a serious gift, so it needs serious art, okay.]

[He is seriously happy about this. Even the card will give him a laugh. He has to try it out, much to the annoyance to the other people in the house. Ah well, Francouer will at least appreciate it.

Time for him to drop off Blaine's gift. Johnny will make his way to wherever Blaine is staying. If he's not around, he'll leave it for him. There's no card, and it's just in a large Christmasy box. When opened, on top, there's a lovely 1980s style ski jacket. Underneath that, though, is a note that says "GOTCHA!", on top of the real gifts. There's a much classier long down coat in there, along with matching gloves, hat and boots.

If he's there when Blaine opens it, he won't be able to keep a straight face when he gets to the coat. A suppressed snort will give away to laughter pretty quickly.

Also, he'll about get damn near tackled as a thank you for that guitar and amp.]

[Blaine didn't require Christmas gifts in return, but he'll enjoy receiving them anyway. Well, he'll enjoy it after he avoids getting steam rolled by an entirely too strong incubus with a death grip.

He opens the box, curious as to what Johnny would have gotten him, and the smile on his face freezes at the sight of the jacket. It burns his eyes with how hideous it is. He's lifting it up, trying not to look as horrified as he feels because he'll have to wear it at least once before burning it, when he hears a snort and looks up. Whatever repressed look of disgust on his face, barely hidden by one of his wan smiles, is causing Johnny to lose it. Then he sees the note and lets out a sigh of relief.]

Thank God. This is the most fucking hideous thing I've ever seen. I thought I was actually going to have to try it on.
