PARABOLICAL COMMUNICATIONS

( Note for Lindsey McDonald )

Sammy, PLEASE tell me you aren't out doing something stupid.

You're not in the house. Where are you?

Where are you?

[OOC: I'm adding to the spam, I know, but she would totally try contacting him on her own.]

Sam, grumpy as he was, made sure that he handed out Valentine's presents for everyone.

He personally delivered a box of chocolate to each of the following people this afternoon: Faith, Jo, Claire (future), Alessa, and Ruby. Faith was given a teddy bear in addition to the box of chocolates, while Ruby was given a bottle of ketchup (as Sam was afraid to give her anything cuddly).

A $125.00 gift certificate to a nearby spa and one of those baby naming books will be found next to Heather when she wakes up in the morning.

And Poor Mary will be given one of those annoyingly large Valentine's Day cards that sing, along with a breakfast that was prepared by Sam. It will include mashed pancakes, two runny eggs, and a slightly burnt piece of bacon. This breakfast will come in the form of a big old lopsided smile.

Ben, John, Harry, Bobby, and Dean just got lots of candy. :)

Scout loudly hates any sappy shit like Valentine's Day, and doesn't have a "valentine" anyway, but he stops at a drugstore on his early-morning jog and picks up a couple of bags of assorted candy and one of those big plastic bowls shaped like a heart that costs $1 and melts if you look at it too sharply.  The candy is dumped into the bowl, the bowl is placed in an accessible-to-all-Hyperion-residents location, and a post-it note is stuck to the side of the dish:

"HAPPY V-DAY THING GUYS (AND GIRLS) (AND IF THERE'S ANYBODY WHO'S NEITHER OF THOSE, YOU TOO)
TO: THE HYPE
- M."

Left for Bella on their bed. Sometime overnight after he had gone out "for a walk."

Thank you.

Hey.
