The amusing tale of how cute_fuzzy_evil gave me and Stealthmuffin a birthday gift yesterday.

She gave us envelopes with our names. We open them to discover...puzzle pieces! Yay! What a cool thing. But we can't put them together now, because we're outside and it's windy.

I start putting my puzzle pieces together later, only to discover...that I'm missing pieces. About half, in fact. A brief moment of deduction reveals that Stealthmuffin probably has the other half. Aargh!

Stealthmuffin gracefully joins her pieces with mine, and we eagerly rearrange them to reveal...

Dinner for Two at Sibling Rivalry. A place we have always wanted to go. Brother chefs, 'dueling' over ingredients.

The Fuzzy Evil is made of liquid awesome.

(And then there were handmade cards by ltlbird, cheese and pirate food, and conversation, and bowling whuppage, and all good.)

Also, you should all go read Part One of "The Welsh Squadron" at Strange Horizons..
