[ He sets immediately to digging through them. Closed boxes are meant to be opened. Especially when they're gifts. ]
These are⦠[ His weapons of choice. Maybe not exactly the same in superficial ways here and there, but for all intents and purposes, these are the things that he makes. Same purpose, same method. Usopp is officially shut up for half a minute or so, busy picking one or two up to roll in his hand with an experienced pachinko-tinkerer's discerning air.
She really must know him, to get it this right. And it's kind of a nice hopefulness to get hold of- if she's his nakama from the future, then he's still with Luffy and Zoro and whoever else they find in that future. And she still wants him around, which is a big plus, since he normally just kind of ends up annoying adults. Going to the Grand Line and finding adventure, on the road to Luffy becoming Pirate King...
A few weeks ago, he probably wouldn't have even lied to himself about where he's headed now. He'd just be sitting by the shore waiting for things that wouldn't come and making up stories about going out to find them for himself.

These are pretty good, Robin! I can definitely use them!
