Everest
"Mmm." Ever, polite and naive, was absolutely the type to show up to a birthday party at a club with a brightly wrapped present. "Oh, it does?" Frowning, the paramedic pulls his eyes away from the smoothie menu (he knows what he's going to get already, it's what he always gets, but he has to survey the menu just in case it's suddenly not available). "I always get everyone at work presents, and I have never hooked up with any of them." Ever also gets presents for the mailman, his doctor, and all the regulars at the gym.
Looking queasy as he inadvertently imagines Mateo's penis with a bow around it, Ever shakes his head. "What if I get her something then. As an apology for Halloween, and anything that happens in the bathroom can just be...supplemental?" He did love Mateo, but the thought of the florist offering up sexual favours as gifts was one part male-privilege and two parts sex worker too much for the paramedic.
