Gift
Gift in German translates to poison in English and French.
Somebody gave Tim a gift like that. It's a book of prints on cardboard that you cut out, fold in spots, and then theoretically glue together to make a fortress. The poison's not for him. He thinks it's great.
Unfortunately he cannot get it off his mind, and he can barely do any of the assembly himself. So if you do "help" him, you get to try to assemble the maddinging small pieces of cardboard yourself while Tim interferes with good intentions, and Emma and Diane try to prevent you from playing with Tim.
Tim's now up here with another piece under my nose as I type.
