"Presents first? Or cake?" The most important question of all.
She looked around, searching for tea, and when none was in sight looked back over at him to say so only to notice that he had everything they needed, for eating purposes at least. Dora didn't much mind the squished bits, since it was better than no food.
"Good, I'm thirsty." Like, always. Dora started preparing tea for the both of them, her hands not taken to being so still as of late. As for the whole blanket fort she just shrugged.
"It's part of your gift. And I can't properly enjoy being seventeen while I'm confined to this castle, so I figured we should pretend for eleven today while we still can." Because once they graduated that was it. No more pretending to be kids.
Most important and easiest to answer.
"Presents of course. While we eat."
