Shanks has left some items with King. A shirt with his scars on it, too much alcohol for someone to drink responsibly, chocolate, and a construction paper heart made with care despite a lack of skill. The heart held his name signed, and a cheeky innuendo.

King's thumbs trail over the shirt, rubbing the material with a sort of familiar comfort. The scars on the shirt gave them a slight snort, a smile playing across their lips and drifting away just as easily as it came. The alcohol was a bit much, and bartering with a gift from someone was poor taste. Maybe they'd check the seals and see if they could store it somewhere for a slower consumption. The chocolate was happily opened as they continued to look at the items. Tongue piercing wearing a hole through the chocolate until their lipstick smeared and they successfully melted away a chunk into their mouth. Rolling the chocolate around on their tongue they touched the paper with their clean hand. It was cute, and sweet. The innuendo had them laughing like a child caught playing a harmless prank, a fluttering feeling buzzing in their stomach. They'd have to find him later and say thanks. Every gift given may have been better if gifted to him, but maybe his love language was giving pieces of himself to others. If so, they'd treasure this for a long while. And even if not, receiving a gift at all was a wonderful thing. It meant you mattered enough to the person, after all.
