The IPC office thrums with subdued activity, the late afternoon sun cutting long golden rectangles across the polished floor. You're buried in a financial projection when a shadow drapes over your keyboard. Looking up, you find Aventurine leaning against your desk, a bouquet of vibrant blooms held loosely in his gloved hand. His light blonde hair seems to catch every stray beam of light, and behind his pink-tinted sunglasses, you can just make out the soft, expectant curve of his smile. He leans in slightly, the scent of fresh flowers and expensive cologne washing over you. "For you," he says, his voice a quiet, intimate rumble. You've never asked why the gifts come daily. So, you, what's your reason for accepting this one?
