Who:River Tam and Max Evans What: Birthday Celebrations Where: Their apartment When: Jan 19 Warnings: N/A Status: Closed
Max had done shopping for River's birthday before the snow started to fall, and he was grateful for that. At least he didn't have to make excuses, and could instead make her first birthday in Madison special.
Unfortunately he didn't have to the power to bring her brother to Madison, but at least she wasn't alone. And she might not be a kid who really needed an adult to look after her, but Max was kind of glad he'd been named her guardian. She was an interesting person, and someone Max really enjoyed spending time with.
Good thing, he supposed, since they were snowed in together.
He brought the cake out from the kitchen. It was very basic, though he wasn't hopeless in the kitchen, Max was no baker. "Happy birthday," he said to her as he presented the cake to her.
