Naoshi laughed again at that, more than pleased. An excellent change in demeanor, even better than what he'd been aiming for!
"Nobody mentioned it because they're courtesy of me, not the school," he replied with a grin. "Just a little something to help you settle in, heh!"
If Kalvin imagined something ostentatious, he'd be sadly disappointed. Naoshi had a small number of greeting-card-sized envelopes with him, tucked inside a notebook, and he picked one with Kalvin's name written on it from the rest. The card the other man would find inside was of a sillier variety with a casual handwritten message welcoming Kalvin to Feldman, signed by one 'Naoshi Day'. Tucked inside said card was a giftcard to the local Walmart (meh) and a couple movie vouchers to the small local cinema (perhaps less meh).
"Something for class supplies, and something just for fun!" Naoshi elaborated, looking pleased with himself.
