“Yes, but it’s not the one that the box says,” I tell him. “That was just the first box I could find that would fit it. I didn’t have time to order you a keyboard and customize it for your birthday, so this is one of mine, but I want you to have it.”
“Audrey—” He’s stunned now. “I can’t take one of your keyboards.”
“Please. It’s a good one,” I say, placing my hands over his on the box. “It’s got really light linear switches that are amazing for RPGs and shooters. And I hand-lubed every switch—don’t laugh—so they are super smooth, and I even upgraded the stabilizers?—”
“Oh mygod,” he says, half-laughing, half-groaning. “This is because you hate my space bar?—”
“Well, it’sawful?—”
“It’s not even that noticeable on stream?—”
“I notice it every time! It’s like it rattles the inside of my brain.”
“You’re the only one who’s ever complained to me about this.”
“As yourfriend, I think it’s my duty to point out when you are committing crimes against humanity.”
“As mygirlfriend, I think it’s your duty to support me no matter what, even when I choose horrible keyboards.”
“I can’t do that, Damien, I really can’t.”
“I don’t know even know what a linear switch is!”
“It doesn’t have the bump that you feel with tactile switches and—you know what, it doesn’t matter,” I say, shaking my head. “Because this is a much better keyboard than that stock piece of crap that you use, so just accept your freaking birthday present, for the love of god!”
I’m not sure if it’s the ridiculousness of my words or theseriousness of my voice, but he bursts out laughing and then hugs the box to his chest.
“All right, thank you, I will treasure it on a shelf forever,” he says, and I give him an evil glare. “What I mean to say is I will definitely use this as my only keyboard from now on.”
“At least until Christmas,” I say with a fake smile.
“You’re going to turn me into one of those people, aren’t you?” He sighs. “Collecting limited edition keycap sets and spending hours trying to determine which switches are thethockiesteven though they all sound the same?—”
“Blasphemy.”
“Come on,” he says, lowering the box in one arm while he puts the other around my waist and starts moving me towards my bedroom. “I wasn’t kidding about needing sleep.”
“Yeah, but talking about keyboards gave me a second wind and now I want to watch switch comparison videos on YouTube for hours?—”
“Sleep.”
“Yeah, okay…” I let out a defeated sigh and trudge alongside him. “But in the morning, we’re watching the videos.”
