[Trust Felix to cut him off before he can even answer affirmatively on if what he's hiding is for him or not. Dimitri doesn't have much time to think about that. Not before Felix is shoving over some gifts at him.]
[Not before he mentions Dimitri's birthday.]
[Dimitri had recalled that his birthday had come, after all. He'd noted it approaching a while ago, when he had realized this was the first month of winter. Yet... It had never occurred to him that the others would know. Would pay attention.]
[So much more has been happening, after all, and they already have a holiday which encourages gift giving. Surely it would be too much money to spend, or too much time to waste. Besides, he had gone for five years without paying mind to his birthday. He could go another.]
[His hand is trembling when he reaches out, leaving behind an awkwardly blanket bundle leaning against the wall. Dimitri stares down at the box and bag dumbfoundedly. When he looks back up to Felix... It takes a lot of willpower to do so.]
