Is there anything you can do for them? Helping them around their temple or a prayer they could use another person on?

Depending on the person, just saying it may be enough!

But other than that, treating them to their favorite meal, finding their favorite way to relax and letting them enjoy that, going on a trip together to the Near Shore kind of like a vacation...

Sometimes it's not just one thing either. Some people like little things over time. If you know their favorite treat like a chocolate chip cookie, it may not be a lot to give them one cookie, but finding days when they're feeling down and remembering they really like cookies can show you care - because you remembered them!

That would depend on what exactly they did for you. If you don't think words are enough, than perhaps a similar gesture. Or even a gift of some kind.

It really depends on the person, I think, but you can't go wrong with indulging someone in something they like! Find them a present they'll enjoy, or take them out for tea somewhere nice.

Just thanking them is always a smart way to start, but doing something that shows you get their interests or just spoils them a little bit goes a long way!

Well they're mostly at my temple. And they don't seem like the prayer type.

They might not like cookies, but they like something... just as indulgent.

A vacation, though. Any ideas of where?

Something big.

A gift. I've given them a few, and I'm a bit lost on what else I could get them. Especially for something so big.

The problem is that I indulge them a lot already, and get them things that they like. So I'm kind of running out of options.

Unless I get them something bigger of the thing they like.

Ooh, like ice cream! Or uhm, what did I see... fondue!

As for a vacation... I'm biased because I love the beach, so going somewhere with a beach would be awesome. I'd think about this person, though. If they like being with only one or two good friends, maybe a camping trip together! If they like being around a lot of people and feeling normal for a change, maybe an amusement park or circus or fairgrounds. If they like learning, there's lots of big cities where you can hit museums and art galleries and guided tours of a city all in one day!

You could try making something for them or taking them somewhere special.

[Actually, Forrest could help with this. He sends a private message to him.]

Forrest, it's Niles. I need your help.

I'd have to talk to them about it. I'm not sure what they'd enjoy most. Probably somewhere quiet and alone, just the two of us.

There are two things to consider: what that person likes and how much they did for you.

After all, if it was something small that you're thanking them for, they might be overwhelmed if you give them something too big or too much.

As for the first part, think from the heart. Gifts are easier to hand over, but it's okay to do something with them like go somewhere!

That's the best way to thank someone. You just have to be genuine.

Oh, Niles! I didn't realize it was you. Of course I'll help.

Well, if you've given them gifts before, then that tells me you must have an idea of what kinds of things they like. That's a big start. It's often more the thought behind the gift itself than the size. Try to think of something they'd really love to receive.

Sometimes just asking can be the most thoughtful thing! Rather than doing something on the fly without checking with the other person, if they're not that fond of surprises. Everyone's different.

Besides, if you ask now, you'll know better for next time! Taking their feelings into account like this already tells me you care.

I try to be sneaky.

I'd like to make something again for Zoro. Do you have his measurements still?

[The whole reason he has to apologize in the first place is Garry's fault! Although he does admit some fault, if the man had not been so willing to fuck...

But no, he's not giving himself away here. He'll deal with Garry later.]

They did a very massive thing for me that I don't know I'll ever begin to be able to thank them for. Something I should have never done.

Not even sure where I'd take them if I was going to take them anywhere. Besides drinking. They enjoy that, but I don't know if that's what I want to take them.

And I am genuine. Genuinely confused.

You would think, wouldn't you? But even I'm unsure about that.

I know what they'd really like, but I don't think they can store or drink that much booze.

I really don't want to ask them. It makes me feel insensitive if I can't figure out what they'd like. So I'm just trying to get some small idea of what I could do.

Quality over quantity. If you're worried about them having too much, then just get one bottle of something really, REALLY nice. Especially a brand they might not normally buy on their own.

Huh, that's a problem. Maybe a gift?

Well, you can't really have too much of a good thing, right? Haha!

Maybe you could do some snooping to figure out if there's something else you could be doing or getting for them?

I can do quality and quantity, that's not an issue. And I can keep it some of them at my place.

That's not a bad idea, though. Something nice and expensive.

Of course. I keep all the measurements I take just in case inspiration strikes for a gift. What did you have in mind this time?
