[At the inn in Lindblum, Terra stood outside of Celes's room, holding a large package awkwardly against her chest. After a moment of adjusting and readjusting, she finally sets it down, balancing it with one hand as she reaches out to knock lightly on the door.]

Happy Birthday.

Date: 2010-03-20 05:16 pm (UTC)It's a shield. Do you like it?
[Yes, it was obvious once it was open, but she had been asked!]

Date: 2010-03-20 05:20 pm (UTC)[After a minute or two, she finally glanced up at Terra and managed a small smile.] It's wonderful... Thank you, Terra.
[To dispel a little of the awkwardness, she stood up then, dumping the wrapping on the bed, and fitting the shield to her arm. She wouldn't be able to dual-wield like this, but at least now her defense would be much greater.]

Date: 2010-03-20 05:26 pm (UTC)I know you've been using two swords but you used to use a shield all the time back home, so...
[A little shrug, as she felt some strange need to justify it. Terra had used shield's back home as well, but here...well, she couldn't. Which was something she was still getting used to, really.]
no subject
Date: 2010-03-20 05:40 pm (UTC)Only because I hadn't really found a shield I liked until now.
[Which was partially true. She also hadn't wanted to deal with a shield, but this one was just so perfect. Celes walked a little further out and pulled out one of her blades, settling it in her hand and her shield on her arm. That... felt natural and so much better here.]
I like the feel of it. The thing sits well on my arm.
