[ Left at Kokoro's door: one jar of umeboshi (bought from the market, because even he is not enough of an overachiever to do a half years' worth of pickling and mellowing in a week in the dorm kitchens. Yet. Creative abuse of timeloops sounds promising). There's a green ribbon tied into a bow around the neck of the jar, with little paper stars glues to the tails of it because there are just so many of those now and a note threaded through it. ]

My apologies for the delay. I wanted to wait to be certain that we were free of time-related nonsense before I sent this.

Thank you for your hospitality.

[ HA. Debt paid. Now he doesn't owe you shit. ]

[shutter_hime]

[That's what you think, motherfucker.

In response to his note, a gift comes shortly after. Or rather, gift basket. Kokoro's girly handwriting means hearts where handakuten and dakuten should be. There's hair care and skin care products (Shiseido), arranged neatly, and because of one shouldn't be without - roasted edamame.]

No worries! I thought you could use some extra stuff before you really settled in. So enjoy all this stuff I picked up at the markets. (ෆ˙ᵕ˙ෆ)♡ lmk if you need anything!

[Your move, Kakyoin.]

[hierophany]

[ What the fuck. What the fuck He's new here! He's recovering from a brain injury! How is he meant to respond in kind to this??? And even if he had the means to, she has the advantage over him in the range of potential gifts she has available to her - he'd never dream of giving a girl unsolicited gifts of skincare products unless it was a deliberate slight (which it has been, in the past). ]

I apologise. I cannot reciprocate your thoughtful gift at present.

[ He hates this. Ugh. ]

Please allow me a few weeks to find my feet.

[shutter_hime]

No worries! I know you just got here, and I figured you could use some high quality stuff. There's no need to reciprocate!

[After all, it's just a cute set of things.]

[hierophany]

[ what the heck??? how does he deal with this???? ]

I appreciate your kindness, but it is absolutely necessary that I reciprocate. Thank you for your patience.

[shutter_hime]

You totally don't need to! Why not just, I don't know, come hang out and be friends? It'd be way easier and less expensive.

[hierophany]

Of course I need to. It's imperative that people pay their debts, even to friends.

[ Noriaki Kakyoin, friend expert. ]

Please, at least give me a chance to repay you

Horny kizuna bond dreams for everyone

[ Everything else is a little unclear. He can't quite remember how this came to be. But there are three things that matter, and those things are demonstrably certain.

1) He has Kokoro pinned up against a wall. The visual of it isn't quite right, since he can't tower over her, so instead he's leaning in from below to kiss and bite at the underside of her jaw.

2) They're both still mostly dressed, because the game's only been going for a few rounds so far. She's still wearing her skirt, even if he's pushed it up enough to stroke his fingers over her through her underwear.

3) The game works like this: each turn, one of them has a certain amount of time to get a noise out of the other. The loser gets the penalty for the round, and then they switch. Until now, the penalties have been the removal of a layer of clothes. This time, though, it's a small vibrating toy. High stakes, this round. ]

Thirty seconds left. [ He whispers it against her neck, grinning wickedly.

She's doing so well. It would be a shame if someone started targetting her clit specifically instead of lazily tracing up and down, rubbing it through the cloth. ]

[shutter_hime]

[Ah.

She's in trouble. Danger, even, because he's moved over those bits on her jaw that he's cheated and learned that Kokoro is... unfortunately... a sensitive girl.]

Fuck you, [she seethes, though it has all the bite of a kitten. Twenty seconds. She can do this, she knows she can because her mother didn't raise a quitter. Fifteen and the fingers between her legs are getting too close to her clit, she knows she can't move because he can just lean into her.

Ten-- fuck, fuck, fuck, he's winning-- five--

Kokoro's eyes are more pupil than iris as she squeezes her strong thighs around his hand and lets out a pitiful mewl. She grinds against his hand and an annoyed sound escapes her.]

Goddamn it, you're cheating.

[hierophany]

I could cheat. [ On cue, something slides out from his sleeve and strokes over Kokoro's thigh before vanishing again. ] If you wanted me to.

[ Slowly, he returns to the more languid strokes from before. Then, after a moment longer withdraws his hand entirely.

There is, of course, the matter of the penalty. But that can wait just a moment longer. He brings his hand up to her face, first, moving a stray lock of hair out of the way so he can kiss her. Actually kiss her, on the lips, in a way that's maybe tender enough to be a little at odds with the stupid game they're playing. ]

Don't worry. I'll probably keep it on the lowest setting.

[shutter_hime]

You know you'd win really easily if you cheated. [ She lets the kiss linger and tries not to look too petulant that he won.

Again.

Jerk. She'll get him on her turn for sure.]

That "probably" sounds suspicious, though.

[Kokoro shifts her hips, trying to chase away the last of that really harsh, but fluffy feeling he instilled in her when she came.]

[hierophany]

Probably.

[ This time he kisses the tip of her nose before he steps away, picking up the little remote controlled vibrator. It's off, for now, and he reaches between her legs to move the cloth of her underwear aside and slip it in, up against her clit. ]

I'll turn it on once your turn starts. [ He smiles pleasantly, spreading out his arms like he isn't holding the remote for that thing in one hand. ] What penalty do you want to bet, for this round?

[shutter_hime]

Such a handicap...

[But she'll get him this time, she's sure of it.]

I'll take off one thing of your choice if I lose. Except my thigh highs. Those stay on.

[Not that it's really a penalty, but it's one more piece keeping her safe... ish. She's pretty sure it doesn't count when his long fingers can slip right under the damp fabric, but...

No, don't get distracted.]

Does that seem fair? After all, you have the remote, Noriaki-kun.

[She likes his name. It's cute, like the rest of him. Even if it is read a little weird at first blush.]

[he thought with the tattoos finally over and done with, the chaos that is his life would calm down. Boy, was he wrong]

Are you working today?

[that sounds a lot better than the ominous "we need to talk" he almost sent instead]

un: piffleprincess

[shutter_hime]

No, I'm off today. Did you want to come over, or did you want to go on a date?

[getcloser]

Gross. I'm not asking you on a date.

I don't know what would be better. There's something we. Have to talk about.

[shutter_hime]

Rude!!

Just come over, if it's important.

[Kokoro purses her lips in thought. That doesn't sound ominous or anything. But then, he could just be extra blunt today. Aaaaah. How scary.]

[getcloser]

Bossy.

It's important, but I don't know how far I'd get in person.

[look, he knows his limits, and they're not doing great at the moment]

We could just talk like this?

[shutter_hime]

Alright, just for a bit.

You're lucky you're cute.

[Still, the fact he's asking for it this way... it makes her stomach twist nervously.]

If it gets too deep, I'm going to need you to be here, even if you have type in front of me.

un: maritime (it's still the 14th somewhere)

[getcloser]

Happy Valentine's Day.

un: piffleprincess

[shutter_hime]

<3 you too. Sorry I can't make any chocolates, but I like you anyway, so you'll have to deal.

[getcloser]

Good thing I don't care whether or not you can make them.

[shutter_hime]

Good, because the last time I tried, I set my kitchen on fire. My mom was so mad, lolol.

Want to do something tonight?

[getcloser]

That bad?

What, like gross couple stuff?

[shutter_hime]

That bad. And it smelled like scorched chocolate for three days.

I'll never grow up to be a chocolatier~


Also yes, gross couple stuff. Please~?
