Happy Birthday, Steve & Gary!

[thosetwoturrets]

A new year has arrived, along with, as usual, a birthday for everyone's favorite foul-mouthed portal turrets. The Inkwell's got some new polish on it, along with lots of white, grey, and red streamers and balloons. There's also an "Aperture Science Turret Redemption Unit" sign hung up above the door outside, which elected some flat "Ha. Ha."s from the boys.

Still, it's a party, it is fun, and everyone is welcome! Let's celebrate!

Alice nods, pulling the bottomless box she stuck on the gift off. Underneath is a sort of mannequin of a person, though the body seems to be made of a gelatinous material. "It's a target like they have on the turret production line! Vic helped me get it after I saw that part in Portal 2."

"Awesome!" the boys chorus.

"Been a while since we got some proper shooting in," Steve says. "This is great -- thanks!"

"Yeah, we'll make good use of it -- in our room," Gary adds hastily at seeing Doc's look. "Don't want anyone getting hit with stray fire, don't worry."

"I thought you'd like it," Alice nods. "You're very welcome -- happy birthday." (And if she occasionally sneaks into your room later to practice with her knife -- well, can you blame her?)
