[ he blinks. ]

Yeah, it's for you. Who else?

[odare]

What?!

[He grins, but his mouth is still wide open.]

Dude! Seriously? Where did you even get this from?!

[Finnick hasn't seen a surfboard in a longass time. Must be from the crystal? But Dolph doesn't even swim?]

[laserhawk]

I made it.

[ not exactly something you can purchase after all. ]

[odare]

You made it?! Are you kidding me? Holy shit!

[He grabs the board gently with one hand, looks closer at it.]

It's beautiful! Don't tell me you made this for me.

[laserhawk]

Yes. I said that part already.

[odare]

[What the fuck? He's touched??????]

That's... That's so nice, Dolph, thank you! I love it.

[He beams up at him, goes on tip-toe to kiss him on the cheek.]

[laserhawk]

[ he's flustered now. that reaction was so strong. ]

You're welcome.

what does it LOOK LIKE or can i decide :3

[odare]

[Finnick sees him blushing, laughs, and hugs him around the neck.]

You're so sweet.

it's mostly blank! so finnick can design it :>

[laserhawk]

[ he's a little stiff, not sure what to do. ]

I just figured you'd like something like this. That's all.

For. The beach.

OMG awww

[odare]

[He laughs again, lets poor Dolph go.]

I do. I really do. I haven't surfed in... A long-ass time. I'm gonna fall so much. It'll be fun.

[laserhawk]

You have an interesting definition of fun.

[ he can't surf, of course. that's a death sentence waiting to happen. ]

But if you enjoy it, that's good enough.

[odare]

Heh, maybe so. I only wish we could surf together. But it'll still be great.

[Now THAT would be fun. And it strikes Finnick as even more sweet that Dolph did this for him despite not being able to partake in the activity with him.]

[laserhawk]

[ he shrugs, unbothered. he doesn't need to be happy. ]

I'm sure you'll find someone.

doesnt need to be happy akfsghiwrun DOLPH.

[odare]

You know me.

[He takes the board in hand, looking it over again. He can't get over it. He's not even sure what to say now... Which is rare.]

shhh

[laserhawk]

[ his brow furrows, feeling his way through his words. ]

Of course I know you.

[odare]

[He's so awkward. It's cute.]

I just meant, like- you know I'll find someone, 'cause it's me.

[He runs his fingers through his own hair, quiet for a moment. He feels bad to just say "thanks, bye!" now, even though Dolph probably wouldn't care if he did.]

Do you wanna like, hang out or something? Want some... Tea? Or a drink?

[He points his thumb back at the castle.]

[laserhawk]

[ he nods. that is what he meant. he knew finnick would like it. he made sure to leave it bare because finnick would want to design it. make it his own. and finnick would find someone to surf with because he likes company.

it's simple. ]

Sure. If you want.

[odare]

Okay.

[He turns to lead Dolph into the castle.]

Come on in to our humble... Cozy little... Mansion, I guess.

[He sets the board near the door and heads into the kitchen.]

What can I do you for? We have uhh... Tea, coffee, beer, wine... Water? Fish? Bread?

[He's just looking around and listing a bunch of stuff.]

[laserhawk]

[ he raises an eyebrow at fish. ]

Beer's fine.

[odare]

Great choice. I fully agree.

[He takes two beer out of the fridge and opens them, handing one to Dolph and tapping the necks of them together. Then he takes a swig.]

My birthday is actually coming up. So you aren't allowed getting me a gift for that.

[laserhawk]

[ dolph does the same. ]

I'm not, huh? Duly noted.

[odare]

Mm-mm.

[Finnick shakes his head.]

Except your presence at the party, of course.

[laserhawk]

You sure? I'm not exactly a party personality.

[odare]

Yes, I'm sure.

[He's smiling, but there's a hint of exasperation in his tone. Dolph's self-esteem is so low, and Finnick just wants him to believe that he is liked and wanted.]

I'm inviting everyone. The entire town. But if I don't see you there, you'll be in trouble.

[He points and squints at him playfully over the top of his beer.]

[laserhawk]

[ his eyebrow climbs up. ]

The entire place? It's going to be hectic.
