jemily // who makes a bigger deal of birthdays?
short answer: they both make a big deal about birthdays, it’s an excuse to shower even more love on their wife.
long answer: emily makes sure jj’s birthday are as extravagant as possible-- she makes jj feel pampered and loved, showering her in gifts and food and wine. whatever jj wants, jj gets. emily’s mom drops a call yelling about the dip in her trust fund, but emily doesn’t care.
emily’s birthday, on the other, jj makes sure they’re laced with as much meaning as possible. emily grew up with fake smiles and fake gifts and jj knows she’ll appreciate a cake from the homestyle bakery downtown than a big extravagant cake. these birthdays are spent with the team and friends, jj orders catering from emily’s favorite thai place and desserts from the little bakery. after the party, they’ll curl up on the couch and watch lilo and stitch, falling asleep still nestled into each other.
