"I can probably afford something nice for you," Judas mumbled, ignoring her protests. "And I could try to bake the cake myself."

"Judas, no! It's fine, really. You don't need to waste your money on me. If you want to make a cake, fine. But I couldn't accept anything from you without feeling guilty for taking away money that's supposed to help out your family."

"I have some money for myself, you know," Judas mumbled. "Are you sure you don't want a gift?"

"After years of nothing for my birthday, even a cake seems really over-the-top," she told him with a small smile. "I don't need any tangible gifts."

"No tangible gifts, then," Judas sighed, washing his plate. "Understood."
Jacob lolled beneath the table, placing his head in Victoria's lap and whimpering loudly. Table scraps. Come on, don't do this to me. I need table scraps.

"Thank you," she said, looking down at the dog head in her lap. "Sorry Jacob," she told the boxer softly. "You're not getting anything. You get fed enough as it is."

Jacob whined, butting at her stomach with his head. Come on, please?

"Jacob, I said no. It'll only teach you bad habits if I give in, so stop giving me that face," Victoria resisted sternly, rubbing Jacob's face and trying to push him back at the same time.

Jacob sighed, curling up under the table and whimpering. Judas sat down again, discreetly tossing his familiar a piece of meat under the table.

"Judas, you know he'll only beg more if you keep doing that," she pointed out. Finishing her food hurriedly, she got up to wash her plate and return it to its place in the cupboard.

"I can feel his pain, I can't help it," Judas sighed, patting his familiar on the head. "Besides, he won't shut up until I give him something."

Victoria sighed, returning to the table. "Fine. Just let him know that he won't get anything from me," she said, stroking the boxer's head under the table.

"Yeah..." Victoria gave Jacob one last scratch behind the ear before returning her gaze to Judas. She looked like she was about to say something, but shut her mouth before she could.

Judas turned around, frowning. "Did you want to say something?"

"I, um... It's just that I had this really weird dream a few nights ago, and...I can't seem to get it out of my mind."

"About what?" Judas handed her a mug of coffee, frowning.

"I'm not entirely sure. There were wagon things and brightly-dressed people. And then there was a huge fire that burned down the city, and it killed a lot of people, and some policemen were there... That's all I can remember, but it was so strange..." She took the coffee and sipped it, letting the bitterness wash over her tongue satisfyingly.

"A fire," Judas repeated, frowning. "Was anyone that you know now in the dream?"

"Not that I remember," Victoria answered carefully. "Maybe you and Jacob. I can't recall. For some reason, I just can't let go of the idea that it might be a bad omen."
