{ 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.

Your concern is appreciated, but also unnecessary. The vehicle will be repaired within a few days time. [Maybe a week, but why throw that at Ivan and make him scrape and bow any lower?] As you can see, everything is under control. There isn't a need for you to worry yourself.

[Or, Yuri thinks, sit there blaming yourself, even if it is your fault. He doesn't want to hear it, but neither does he wish to send the young man away feeling any worse...]

[With a sigh, he rises from his desk and proceeds to a shelf leaning up against the wall. From a cupboard, he produces an extra cup and saucer which is then brought over and set before Ivan.]

The tea is still fresh, if you'd like some. Meanwhile, perhaps you could tell me more about your side of things? With regards to the suspect you captured. Besides the hijacking, was there anything else they were wanted for?

A-ah. Thank you.

[Ivan takes a cup. Thankfully, his nerves have calmed down, so there is no danger of Cyclone Crusher coming around again.]

The hijacker's name is Gilson Devon. He had multiple charges of theft but no arrest was ever made. There was a gun in the car... However... there weren't any bullets fired at the Heroes or found in the weapon. I think an investigation is underway, but I haven't heard anything yet...

[Investigation and detective work weren't really part of the Hero's job. Lousy ratings. But hey, Lunatic. You may have a possible "gift" too.]
