[Finn walks up to the box, squinting down into it thoughtfully. Apparently, gift giving was the custom around here. A human custom, as far as Finn could tell. The thought gives him a weird fluttering in his stomach as he focuses on one of the new people he's met -- human or not -- racking his brain for what they might want...]
MA loves cleaning. Like, loves cleaning. [Finn hums, as if waiting for divine insight from the box itself.] Maybe this is kinda out there, but I feel like the best gift he could get is more stuff to clean. But not like, laundry, like something super old that he'd be into...? Is that enough to go on, box?
Later...
[This month's supply drop has arrived and with it, a little something special for Minimus. He'll see a box wrapped in pearlescent white paper, a coral-colored bow, and a small glittery gold tag with 'From Finn' printed on it. The wrapping job is too neat to be from Finn himself, clearly created by the ship's replicator based on his gift request.
Inside the box, he will find a very old copy of The Canterbury Tales. It is severely damaged and in need of profound restoration, but the illuminations look original. Projects make good gifts, right?]
[The damage horrifies Minimus, but the artwork is too beautiful to abandon. It's a unique cleaning project that will take up much of his time in the near future, so now he has something else to do than to police everyone that doesn't clean up after themselves in the common area.
As a bonus, he has his hands on a new piece of classical Earth literature. Time to be scandalized by some of the stories!]
