Darling, don't act like I don't do this every time a job takes me elsewhere for a significant amount of time.
[As he pauses to pull out the package, then hands it over--a few of the local specialties from where he'd gone this time, as well as a cute little black cat plush, a bow made up of multiple ribbons in colors representing all three of them adorning its neck.]
[He grins and pulls it out-- This one has a big sunhat and sunglasses. The sunglasses, amusingly, coincidentally look similar to the ones Aventurine wears.]
I have to admit, I did start looking, just in case. Though, maybe I can leave that one in your hands, since I'm giving him the one that looks like you~?
[And by now, they've gotten outside and to the car, so Ciar gives Aventurine one more kiss on the head before slipping around to the passenger's side in the back.]
Ah. [Another kiss, this one a bit longer than the last.] Well, I do have a bit of good news. Unless an emergency comes up, the team and I are taking a break for a couple months.
I've been tempted to call his university and threaten them if they don't reduce his work hours, but it wouldn't work in the end. He'd just work overtime.
We really need to start pestering him about breaks more often. Maybe we should start coordinating ours to make it easier for both of us to strongarm him into it.

I missed you, too. [A quick kiss.] Sorry I was gone so long this time.

So he is far overdue for one! Honestly, I worry about him sometimes...
