[ late, late, late into the night of the 14th, church drops a carefully but clumsily wrapped package off at tex's door for her to find later. the package is wrapped in brown packing paper and contains a few chocolates swiped from the valentine's day party along with a couple books (romantic classics) he "borrowed" from the moira's library.
tucked into the cover of one of the books is a hastily scrawled note, mysteriously unsigned: ]
"happy valentine's day
by the way these books are from the library so once you're done with them you should probably return them or don't i don't care
if you don't return them though i did sign your name out for them"
[ at the end of the note, there's a very heavily crossed out "xoxo" that tex may or may not be able to make out. ]
[ The package is found by Tex's roommates, coming in from the party, and it's by process of elimination that they figure out the box is meant for her. She sends a response the next morning. ]
I know you were making do with what you had available but for future reference a present that's entirely free isn't the best way to impress me.
the night of the 14th; action-ish?

[ and then a minute later: ]
i mean you did only get one gift right like there weren't multiple?
[ because if there WERE, he's totally going to have to kick someone's ass. ]
text
It doesn't matter if I got more than one if they weren't from you, does it?
text
i'm just wondering
and you know me my curiosity won't be sated til you give me an answer so what is it tex do you have more than one admirer
[ ugh, that word. bad choice. gotta follow it up with something shitty. ]
not that this mysterious other guy is an admirer who knows maybe he just felt sorry for you
text
text
did i say sorry for you? autocorrect sorry i meant RESPECTS you
text
Anyway, I guess I have a mystery on my hands since none of it was you.

good luck with that
