[It's okay Tom, Audrey is really bad at this gift stuff which is partly why she's amazed at something so big being given to her. She arranges everything to one side (And she's going to have to give Sullivan a really big kiss for that scarf because it was adorable and she did love it) before getting up to begin pulling at the wrapping paper on the box itself. At least three big rolls were sacrificed for this thing!

The box underneath doesn't tell her what it is (Junko's idea) so she has to rip the tape off one side, and with a surprising show of determination she yanks the cardboard apart and...]


What the ...

[She has to tear some more to get it completely off and reveal the dark blue bike underneath. Someone should probably help her clear out the trash because it's going to take up a lot of space.]

Seriously?! Yamato, this is way too much, what were you even thinking?! [That's what comes out of her mouth but she's smiling, tracing her hands over the seat and the handles.] ... It's better than the one I had to leave at home!

[Because, as Masaomi and most of the adults, plus Junko would know? Her parents had been absolutely livid. There had been a lot of screaming and crying and, on more than one occasion, an attempt to smack her in the face, which was exactly why she hadn't wanted to tell them alone. They'd been so hurt, not that it was much of an excuse. Their form of retaliation was to let her take her clothes but everything else: Her pictures, nicknacks, things she considered valuable? They wouldn't let her, and Audrey hadn't wanted to fight over it by the time she actually made it to her room.

But this ... This made up for it in spades.]
