A grand romantic gesture that will most assuredly go down in history.

[But not really.]

Do I gossip about anybody?

that might be a little over the top

Did you miss the "grand romantic gesture" part?

All the time.

[wait]

apparently

Really?

Actually, I was thinking of getting you some flowers. You liked those last time, right?

[u g h]

yeah, i liked the flowers. but don't feel like you have to do anything, kay?

What, you didn't realize?

[steph....]

I think you're fucking with me.

[really kids who is fucking with who at this point]

I know I don't have to, but I want to. Happy anniversary.

you know technically anniversaries are yearly, right?

I would never!

[who isn't fucking with who]

Uh huh.

[he is so very entertained.]

I'm hurt, Peter. Wounded.

[hand to her heart and everything]

...Oh! I didn't know you knew how to cut hair, Steph. That's really impressive.

Me and my friends couldn't really afford trips to the hair dresser, so we just taught each other.

That's so cool.

[And then a gasp of realization!]

Could - do you think you could teach me?

I could, yeah. [Which isn't the same as letting Ahiru cut her hair, since it'll be supervised.] Maybe Dick'll let us practice on him.

[A pause.]

But what if I mess up really bad and everything goes back to normal tomorrow?

hey stephanie guess what

i'm seventeen today

[She doesn't really want anything special for it, she just wants somebody to know.]

[Ahiru!!!!]

happy birthday, duckling! you wanna do something nice for dinner?

[She gets not wanting to make a fuss, it's the reason only Saul really knows when her own birthday is.]

It's boy hair, you can't mess it up that bad.

[Dick may disagree with this assessment.]
