From Skylar: Carly Rae Jepsen - The Loveliest Time (album, 2023)

//in whatever is the nicest format Theo has a device that can play it + digital, idk what that would be but assume Sky does. If Theo does not have a device that can play physical media then this is a CD + digital and comes with a portable CD player.

Hey dude, happy birthday! Here’s the latest from Carly Rae J - if you ever need bass on a cover, you know where to find me.

Let’s collab on some sick jams this year, yeah?

From Gwen: Music Composition Notebook but a different one from the one she gave Theo. an Attempt was made at matching her perceptions of their preferences.

Happy birthday, Ian, and best wishes in the year to come.

Gwen

Also from Gwen, the day after Ian’s birthday: 40 oz water bottle, with a post-it note attached.

Drink at least four of these a day. Check with Samira if you don’t believe me.

From Daniel: small (pocket or necklace-size) wind instrument, homemade brownies, heartfelt card (card not pictured, text below), brought to Ian at the very start of their birthday (as in, 12am)

Ian,

I saw this instrument at the market in town and thought of you. The shopkeeper said that there are a lot of different notes it can hit depending on the combination of holes you cover, so hopefully it’ll be fun? I added a cord so you can wear it or attach it to things, but I can take it off again if that would be easier.

I know that the crew often does cake for birthdays, but I wanted to make sure you had some sort of treat right at the start of the day. I did have a taste tester so I reckon the brownies did turn out, but let me know?

I’m really glad to have met you - thank you for being such a wonderful friend to me, and always being there to talk and listen.

Anyway, happy birthday! I hope you’re able to spend it doing things you like :)

Love,

Daniel
