Hey dude. I saw you were thinking of visiting Ernestine but were on the fence about it. Would you actually do me a solid and accompany me next time I have to check on her? I kind of need to focus, and she's a great kid but she talks a lot. Maybe talk about theory with her for a few minutes as I work? You'd really be helping me out.
In the afternoon, a binder full of hand-written, color-coded notes and a small box full of honey camomile cakelets are left outside of Linus' door! The notes are a detailed, helpfully organized outline of reading materials recommended by Director Thornton for the written portion of the upcoming Leadership Evaluation. There's also a note tucked into the front pocket of the binder, which reads:
Hey Linus! I know you said you're not the study group type and maybe this won't help, but I figured it can't hurt? These are from some materials about tactics and leadership that Director Thornton recommended. I feel like going through them brought up a lot of things I've never thought about! Maybe that'll be true for you too. Either way, you've got this!!
The cakes are honey and camomile. I was going to make a 'busy bee' joke here since I know you've been working hard, but it's really lame so I'll just say I hope you like them instead. (I promise I had someone else try them too.)
Oh wow man this stuff is great thank you this is super detailed and these cake things are so good
I promise I'm saving most of them for study time but I couldn't resist
Is there anything you want to go over before next week I think I'm basically going to spend the weekend sort of cramming anyway so it could truly be anything
[An erewhon tote bag so like, three guesses who the 25-year-old emergency tote bag fairy is. (She got it from her mom at some point it's the only one she had) Inside are 4 gatorades (2 blue, 2 yellow,) a pack of the freezy pedialyte sticks (unfrozen), a bottle each of ibuprofen, tylenol, and excedrin, a little box of trail mix for snackies and a box of bandaids.]
A note attached on an index card reads :LATE DELIVERY. STOP. BIRTHDAY DELAYED. STOP. HAPPY 25th L.L. HAPPY PARTYING. I don't know who taught her telegraphs either.
Re: 25th birthday tote bag in front of linus's door 8/7
When Linus exits his apartment on the morning of the evaluations, he will find a small paper gift bag hanging on his door handle. The bag contains some flashcards on familiar strategic concepts (example) and a thick pack of strong peppermint gum. Linus may realize that Annie has offered him the same gum during every study session they've had. There is also a dorky note: Here is your mission, should you choose to accept it. Chew two pieces before the written portion. Take deep breathes. Trust your instincts. Remember that you are uniquely trained and highly motivated - a specialist without equal - the living manifestation of destiny. <3
This is also very sweet!! Linus thanked her in person during eval downtime and especially appreciated all the Mission Impossibleness <3 and he definitely chewed the gum
[a plain tote bag with 12 mini donuts from Obeigne (whatever flavours you decide, idc), numbered birthday candles in the order 52 (oops), and a birthday card (he couldn't resist):]
Metaphor goes here but I'll let you choose which seeing as it's your birthday and all.
Linus, I'm sorry for what happened at the party, and I'm sorry for doubting you and downplaying things. I know Annie asked you to help me out with things. I appreciate that, but I hope you get to enjoy yourself without worrying about other people, or worrying about things in general. I think you have a lot on your plate.
Hi Linus, there's something for you in your mailbox. Just a thank you for helping out at the party. I figured you could use something to write field notes or Explorer things in, unless you have something already. If you do, use it for doodling?
[OOC: If Linus checks his mail, he will find a nice notebook from Stamp of Approval, wrapped in kraft paper.]
I was gonna try to figure out if I could make him part of my costume but didn't have a good idea for him and maybe he'll be too sleepy for a chaos party anyway rest up bud
[6/02, sometime in the evening]
i asked around to try and find you but idk many of you new guys so sorry if you're the wrong one
anyway assuming you are the right guy, thanks
how can i like
repay you for that whole life saving thing
