During the several (admittedly on and off) years he and Dorian were together before they were last separated, Toby had never had the chance to enjoy and celebrate his birthday to its absolute fullest. Having a birthday at the height of summer as a vampire meant much of the day was off limits or, at the very least, that going out for his birthday was relegated to a short window at the end of the day. The Nexus has handily taken many of those obstacles out of the equation, leaving the decision of when to start and where to spend his birthday wide open, perhaps to the younger man's dismay.
At precisely 7 AM, well over an hour after the sun's risen, the vampire carefully slides into bed next to his boyfriend and wraps his arms around him. The turn he took about the garden at sunrise was lovely, but now it's time for attention and presents!! And the only one who's going to be bothered for either today is his soulmate.
"Dorian~" he murmurs as he pulls the other man close. "Time to wake up. It's my birthday." To help sweeten the deal, he presses a very excited kiss to his boyfriend's lips. This is definitely enough to get the man to wake up, right?? Whether it is or not, Toby quickly follows that kiss with another peck to the man's cheek. "You owe me presents and an expansion of your riddle."
He's been patient ...enough(?) over the past week, and now he's done with all that! It's not his actual birthday and that means all his whims must be catered to. Well, maybe not all of them, but presents and attention are definitely necessary right now!
