2/14, afternoon

[justfists]

[knock knock, brother. it's valentine's day. So open up!!!]

[idealest]

[ Eyyyy. Sakichi's done being a Valentine's mule for the day, so he's dressed to relax when he opens the door. Truthfully, he's been enough of a busy bee today that seeing Makoto was not even on his radar. I'm sorry that her brother is this way. ]

Makoto... Good afternoon. What brings you here?

[justfists]

[she holds up a simple box, offering it to him.]

Happy Valentine's Day, brother.

[he deserves a reward for all his hard work, honestly]

[idealest]

[ Oh.

His surprise at seeing her on his doorstep is compounded by his surprise at the box being offered to him. He stares at it for a good second before looking at Makoto. ]

This is for me?

[ Who else would it be for? He takes the box carefully. ]

Thank you. I didn't get anything for you, though.

[justfists]

I didn't expect you to... Though White Day is next month, if you're really worried about it. Which... you shouldn't be. [which he shouldn't be, he gets to be the one person who gets her chocolate okay. IT'S THE BENEFITS OF BEING THE OLDER BROTHER... and her making up for lost time.]

I hope it helps you relax, since you've been working so hard.

[idealest]

I'm certain it will.

[ The gesture is kind, and her thoughtfulness is not lost on him. She says he doesn't have to worry about getting her anything in exchange, but a "thank you" alone doesn't seem like enough.

Being the awesome social creature he is, he proceeds to ask without batting an eye: ]

Would you find a hug agreeable?
