WHO: Martouf and OPEN WHAT: Valentine's Shopping WHEN: Sunday WHERE: Downtown, Subway WARNINGS: TBD STATUS: Open/Ongoing
Martouf had been learning a lot about Valentine's Day, both from the network and from his own research. He couldn't help but agree a little with the people who derided it as commercial - it most certainly was. But he was trying to overlook that and instead take it in the spirit in which he believed it had originally been meant - a day to celebrate love of all sorts.
He and Donna had decided to go to Banff for the holiday - something he was very much looking forward to. But he also wanted to have some gifts for her to open on the day, since that seemed to be traditional. And he had quickly decided that he didn't want to buy those gifts at Walmart - he wanted something more unique and special.
He'd been browsing the stores downtown, picking up a few things as he did. Nothing huge, but just little things that would show his affection for her.
Tired of shopping, he stopped at Subway to pick up a sandwich, then sat alone at a booth to eat it.
