[It doesn't. Dirk takes his time, with a little bit of amusement at how excited she is. When they get up to the roof, he sets the pack down and flips it open. Inside are two things, a kickass set of boots and a long dark coat. He taps both before lifting them up.] Check this out.

[He pulls open the coat, and inside are pockets for ammo, for damn near anything.] The boots bottom are dragon scale. You kick someone with those and they're going to feel it for days. They're fairly flexible so it's not like you're tracking around on bricks.

[Once she sees what he has her face lights up, hands clasping together as she does a little bounce on the spot.]

Oh my god!! That is so amazing, like holy shit!

[She reaches out to touch the jacket, holding it for a few seconds before letting go to throw her arms around Dirk instead.]

I love you, you're the best.

[He rocks just a little with the sudden weight of Roxy then wraps his arms around her. That tells him he made the right call. Naturally he would but still, best to make sure.]

That's my specialty.

[Holding it for a few more seconds she lets go, instead reaching for the coat and putting it on, curiously feeling all the little pockets and whatnot.]

What do you think?

[Dirk releases her and stands up to take a slow walk around her. Like a talior, he straightens out how the coat falls on her shoulders, makes sure the sleeves are straight. Once he's done, he steps back.] Shit, it looks just like I thought it would. You look great, Roxy.

[She's pleased he likes it, though she soon rumples it up again by hopping on the spot once excitedly before rushing forward and giving him yet another hug.]

Thaaaanks! So much, oh my god what a great gift!

[Dirk takes a second to judge accurately what he should do. Then he hugs her back and spins her around once.] I knew you'd like it.

Not just like it, I love it. Thanks Dirk. Man I've said that like six times already, tell me to shut up.

Why? I love hearing it. This is your day, you know that right? What you say goes.

You'll just force yourself to listen to all my praise for you, right? Hehe.

Exactly. Now you're getting it.

I've been making my present for you too. When did we get so awesome?

We've always been awesome, Rola. You're just seeing it now.

Yeah. I guess it's good to remember it every once in a while! Really though, I love it. I'm gonna wear this forever, even if it's too warm to wear it. Because oh my god, I look so badass.

I'm glad you like it. It's good for all types of weather, but specifically great for the winter.

Yeah! And look at all these pockets and stuff, I can stash so much stuff in here, it's great.

Exactly. I know how pockets are your favorite thing, so I included enough you might run out of shit to put in them.

Then I accept that challenge, and will just have to find even more crap to store in them. Hehe.

We'll see who is right in the end.

I guess we will!

[And with that he catches her in another hug and pats her back.] Happy Birthday, Roxy.

[Yay, more hugs! He even gets a kiss on the cheek this time.]

Thanks! It's already been a pretty amazing day and I've not even had breakfast yet.

[He gestures to the way back down with one hand.] How about we head on back down and go have breakfast then. I bet Rose is just as eager about today as you are.

Yeah! That sounds like a great idea actually. I wanna see her.

I need to give her a gift too, since you both share the same wriggling day.
