"It is beautiful," he says. "Thank-you, Corey. And sometimes... well, let us say the Rules were meant to be bent."
He nods slightly. "In all the chaos, I had almost forgotten the date was almost upon us. Fortunately, I thought ahead for once."
He had, in truth, put much thought into this back when Corey had first advised him on his romantic situation. Eventually, he had decided on something he knew Corey would appreciate.
"I had done this before, as a means of saying thanks... but it seems all the more appropriate now."

He handed the certificate to Corey. "Two dozen acres of Amazon Rainforest, purchased and protected in your name. It shall never be harvested or cut down."
