Rocky's already sniffed through the basket and took everything inside. [The dog in question makes a happy little noise, unable to bark because he's carrying one of the new toys.] The crutch is perfect, Diarmuid. It's really... I mean you didn't have to but thank you so much.
I think it might honestly be one of the nicest gifts I've gotten in years.

Date: 2017-01-17 07:13 am (UTC)I'm glad. You deserve nice things. I can't give you your leg back, but at least this can help.
no subject
Date: 2017-01-21 09:29 pm (UTC)This helps more than you can imagine. [And he bites his tongue before pointing out that Diarmuid really didn't have too. He knows the man well enough to know the statement would be waved aside.] Rocky and I have something for you too... Okay I have something for you but Rocky helped me get it home.

Is that what this bag is for?
no subject
Date: 2017-01-25 01:06 am (UTC)For now though he grins, gesturing to the bag.]
It is. Go on and take a peek.
[Hopefully he didn't get the wrong kind of harp.]
Do you know that harp pic was one of the contenders for the one I got Dia at the other game? :D
Date: 2017-01-26 09:36 pm (UTC)Is this...?
[He kneels down so he can get a better look into the bag. A soft sound of joy slips from his mouth as he carefully pulls the harp free, settling back into a sitting position so he can balance the harp in his lap. His fingers slide over the strings for a moment, picking out several notes before he looks up at Afonso in delight.]
Where did you find such a beautiful instrument?
omg seriously? NICE!!! it's such a pretty harp and feels very dia-y
Date: 2017-01-27 03:38 am (UTC)[And from the reaction it's clear that he chose the correct harp. It makes Afonso smile as he leans a little more against his crutch.]
I'm afraid I don't know much about harps, so I just picked one that looked nice.
Yes! Isn't it, though?
Date: 2017-01-29 05:36 am (UTC)You did very well. I thought about going to the music store a time or two to see what they had, but I never got there. I'm glad you did. Would you like to hear a song? A couple of strings need a little tightening because it hasn't been played for a while, but it won't be that noticeable.
Re: Yes! Isn't it, though?
Date: 2017-01-31 03:25 am (UTC)[And once was at a stuffy party he'd been dragged to back home.]
no subject
Date: 2017-02-01 05:33 am (UTC)[He picks out a simple melody on the strings so he can get a better feel for the instrument.]
Any requests? A lot of people thing the harp is a very formal instrument, and granted it is, but there is a larger range to what can be played on it than most think.

Play your favorite song.

Date: 2017-02-26 06:06 am (UTC)[Eventually, though, he settles on a soft, calming piece. Something he actually wrote himself as a lullaby to help put his children to sleep when they were young. He softly hums the words as he plays, choosing not to sing full out just because Afonso won't understand the words. He can always translate them later.]
no subject
Date: 2017-03-01 02:02 am (UTC)He's always been fond of lullabies...]
What's this song called?
no subject
Date: 2017-03-01 04:11 am (UTC)Um... I think I just called it "Children's Lullaby."
[Naming songs isn't exactly his strong suit, okay?]
I DON'T THINK I'VE EVER SEEN THIS ICON BEFORE it's so cute ;;
Date: 2017-03-02 12:29 am (UTC)[He grins, and if this was supposed to be embarrassing Afonso doesn't see it that way.]
Better than just calling it "that stupid tune" like Rhyleigh does.
I don't get to use it that often, so you might not have! :-D
Date: 2017-03-04 06:24 am (UTC)[Diarmuid smiles, suddenly not feeling so bad.]
Well, I guess that is technically a name.
[No, not really...]
no subject
Date: 2017-03-08 01:55 am (UTC)[He rolls his eyes, but grins.]
I'm also not including some of the foul language he tosses in between the words.
no subject
Date: 2017-03-09 12:50 am (UTC)[Diarmuid rolls his eyes, seeming offended for all of about 2 seconds.]
Unless it's a drinking song, of course.
no subject
Date: 2017-03-14 12:27 am (UTC)[There's such a fond exasperation in his voice.]
The things one puts up with for love.
no subject
Date: 2017-03-16 04:12 am (UTC)Indeed. Let me get this tuned up and I will give you a longer concert. Thank you again for such a wonderful gift.
