late evening before candlenights

[petsthedog]

[There's a pair of immaculately wrapped gifts in extremely gaudy wrapping paper left at Mista's door when it is gently ding-dong-ditched in the evening.

One of these is a gag gift; it looks and feels like a gun, but whenever Mista gets around to trying to fire it, a banner will pop out instead, along with some pre-loaded confetti. The banner? Just reads "Bang!"

The other, meanwhile, is a really nice gun cleaning kit. Notably, there were slots for four bronze brushes. One of them has been removed.

The card that comes with it has Mista's name on it, and a note in scrawled, somewhat messy handwriting:

happy candlenights
thanks for everything

Below it is ... well, a bit of a mess, where he wrote his name and scratched it out and then wrote it again. Like he waffled on whether to identify himself for a while and then just left it before he lost his nerve.]
