Fandom Island Museum, Thursday Daytime

[hasaknightjob]

When Steven arrived at the Museum that morning, Blathers presented him with a small basket of preserves. Nothing particularly out of the ordinary - blueberry, strawberry, orange marmalade, that sort of thing.

The timing seemed odd as Steven couldn't think of anything that would inspire Blathers to give a gift.

Blathers said something about having the blues around this time of year, so it was something to help Steven feel cheerful.

Steven certainly enjoyed being able to say that blueberries might help the winter blues, yes, but that didn't seem to be what Blathers had had in mind.

Regardless, the jams and all looked tasty. Steven put the basket safely with his satchel so he could share it with Llewellyn later.

With that, he was behind the Welcome Desk, working away but as always interruptible for any visitors.

Good thing he was interruptible, because here was a visitor, interrupting!

"Hello, you."

"Hello, you," Steven said, smiling when he saw him. "My favorite person."

"How fortuitous, as my favourite person is also here," Watts beamed at him.

"I would joke about that being Blathers but instead I'll just say thank you," Steven told him.
