Alright, quicky update, so I kept going through the messages and beat her at Tic-Tac-Toe and this time, the “gift” appeared on my desktop.
So maybe I misunderstood her the first time? How is she supposed to “decorate” my desktop?
Figured it out. the first “gift” (Vira asking to decorate my desktop) is a wallpaper. Seems kinda obvious in hindsight but oh well…
The problem with that on my system is that I use Lively Wallpaper and it overrode her wallpaper if I had to guess.
Maybe should look into that, if you can. (Or maybe leave a note somewhere about that happening.)
