Thirty-Eighth Shower - [Voice]

[meteorical]

[Don't mind her, she's just grumbling to herself a little.] Vanitas is wrong. Valentine's Day is still special, even if a person doesn't have someone else to celebrate it with. It's seeing everybody else happy that makes it worth it some days. [But she's done fuming about it. Happy thoughts, happy thoughts.]

You know, I kind of miss the day-after sales on holiday candy back home. With everything being free here, it's not quite the same.

Anyway, hope everybody had a nice holiday! From the sounds of it a lot of you really are getting into the spirit of things. It's great. What was the best thing about yesterday for those of you who celebrated? I think mine was just seeing love in the air.

I think I've spoiled myself with this box of chocolates though.

...hey Aqua, are you busy? I thought maybe we could get started on that thing you and I talked about a while ago.

Were they all home made?

[1week-wizard.livejournal.com]

Only some of them.

[meteorical]

Better than nothing. That's great. I'm...actually glad to hear that. [So maybe she's been on and off concerned about Patchouli, so what?]

[1week-wizard.livejournal.com]

I've sell have some homemades left if you wanted some.

[meteorical]

Yeah? I mean, I don't want to take them from you or anything. They were your presents.

[1week-wizard.livejournal.com]

I'm saying it's alright.

[meteorical]

That's really nice. Thanks, Patchouli. I can swing by later if that's okay?

[1week-wizard.livejournal.com]

That should be fine.

[meteorical]

Great. Where are you today, the library or at your home?

[1week-wizard.livejournal.com]

I'm spending the day at home.

[meteorical]

I'll stop by sometime this afternoon, then.

[1week-wizard.livejournal.com]

Good. I'll inform Sakuya you'll be arriving, then.

[meteorical]

Thanks. See you in a bit.

[1week-wizard.livejournal.com]

-Patchy closes her book at that and begins gathering up some of the leftovers.-

[meteorical]

[It takes her a bit to figure it out, but after some investigation Kairi figures out where Patchouli actually lives and she'll knock on the door, waiting for Patchouli to be informed she's arrived.]

[1week-wizard.livejournal.com]

-And we'll just pretend that Sakuya did her thing and now Patchy is at the door.-

Hello, Kairi.

[meteorical]

[Handwaving's always fun. Once Patchy's at the door, Kairi just grins. And in her hand she has a small bundle.]

Hey there. Thanks for letting me come on such short notice. [She's shifting the bundle in her hands a bit. It's just a small batch of cookies she made a few days prior.] I know I'm here for you to give me some of your leftovers, but I felt bad just coming without giving you something in return. You don't have to take them, of course, but I thought I'd offer. They're not store-bought either.

[1week-wizard.livejournal.com]

-Patchy... is honestly surprised enough by the gesture that it takes her quite a few moments to even speak up.-

Ah...

-Brilliant observation.-

[meteorical]

[Kairi's not really sure how to take that. She's confused why it's such a surprise, but she's still holding them if the other girl wishes to take them.] Like I said you don't have to, but I felt bad just taking.

[1week-wizard.livejournal.com]

-She does, eventually and slowly, take them. She still looks unsure of the gesture.-

[meteorical]

[...okay, she has to ask.] What's that look for? [Not to be mean, but she's genuinely curious.]

[1week-wizard.livejournal.com]

A-ah, I just...

I apologize. I'm not used to receiving gifts like this.

[meteorical]

Really? You mean just random ones? Yeah, I probably should have thought it through better.

[1week-wizard.livejournal.com]

That being said, I do... appreciate this. A great deal.

[meteorical]

No worries. It's only fair. Like I said, I should be thanking you for the home-made ones. There's something more special about home-made treats you don't actually make yourself.
