{ tie it up in a pretty little bow }

1. 'Tis The Season!
→ It's some holiday or another, and you don't want to be the one who breaks tradition by not giving a gift.

2. Happy Birthday!
→ Another year older! Is it their sweet sixteenth? The no-holds-barred-finally-legal 21? Or that stately eighty candles that might set the cake on fire...

3. Sweet Valentine
→ Not that you need a commercialized excuse to butter up your sweetheart, but if the heart-decorated chocolate truffle fits...

4. Anniversary
→ You didn't forget ~~this year~~! But seeing as how it only comes once a year, you'd better make it fantastic ~~or you'll be sleeping on the couch... again :(~~

5. Wedding Bells
→ It's the bride and groom's happiest day and you want to give them something to commemorate this momentous occasion!

6. Housewarming
→ Those new neighbors of yours are still getting settled. Why not give them something to welcome them to the neighborhood?

7. What Bribery?
→ It never hurts to get on someone's good side, right? Especially if they could make your life miserable if they don't like you...

8. Get Well Soon!
→ Someone's stuck in the hospital and you just know that a gift will put a smile back on their face.

9. Going Away
→ They have to leave and you can't go with them, but you'll wait until they return. Give them something to remind them of you while they're far away.

10. I Miss You!
→ Has it been a week? A year? However long they've been away, you want them to know you're still thinking of them.

11. I'm So Sorry
→ You've screwed up big time and apologies just don't feel good enough, but you'll give them a token of your sincerity.

12. You're Appreciated!
→ There's just no one else like that person! You know everything they've done for you and others and you to show your appreciation.

13. Glorious Victory!
→ Hail the conquering hero! It doesn't matter if they've run a marathon or usurped a kingdom, this calls for mighty spoils!

14. Secret Admirer~
→ You haven't quite worked up the courage to give them something in person, and hopefully they don't recognize your handwriting...

15. Wildcard
→ Anything else, go crazy with it.

I didn't realize I was talking to two green-eyed monsters today. That's flattering.

Excuse me?

It's understandable that you'd be wracked with jealousy if you turned on YouTube these days, I get it. It's cute, really.

These days? Unless you have fresh peccadilloes I don't see where your caught on film escapades should make me jealous.

You're not?

[ Listen to the disappointment, Bruce. Listen. ]

I'd have to be jealous of a lot of people if I was jealous of people you slept with before me and Pepper.

That doesn't mean I want to watch you screwing them.

[ Eh, close enough. ]

Maybe we should record something of our own.

Haven't you learned your lesson about home movies?

That's not a 'no' I'm hearing, Bruce.

I'd say no, but I have to ask you if you don't already have surveillance video from your apartment and labs?

JARVIS keeps track of everywhere. He's tactful where it counts, you have to give him that.

I know that JARVIS is circumspect in every way.

I don't really like being like your past conquests.

Bruce, you are nothing like anyone I have ever met since I dive-bombed onto this planet, I promise.

Dive bombed. You're funny.

A week sounds like a long time now. You should make me a movie without cover model co-stars.

I'll let you star in the live action version when you get back.

The big panorama window in your bedroom in Malibu - does that have a mirror function?

... It can by the time you get back.

That's my guy.

Can't you get out of there before a whole week?

Quarantine procedures. As much as I want to be home tonight, I have to be sure I'm not bringing anything home to you other than myself.

Okay, put like that you're the very definition of a good boyfriend. The mirror and I will be waiting.

Speaking of the very definition of a good boyfriend... that's going to be very distracting to think about for the next week.

Good! I'd worry if I wasn't a successful distraction.

I've noticed. You don't have to worry. I've been away from home too long and you're definitely on my mind.

Go on. Get that mirror working. You have my number here. I'll be your captive audience if you need me for something.

Alright. Call me any time for anything, I'll get JARVIS to put you through.

[ Pausing, he fiddles with the statue. ]

Miss you.
