It's at that moment that he gets a ping on his work e-mail.

From Kou.

With an annoyed look at the computer as if it were somehow responsible for whatever stupidity Kou had come up with this time (mini-skirts as their mandatory company uniform? Group date? Flowers on Pluto?) he opens it.

What he's greeted with are three lines written in an orange-gold font colour (which Shirogane had talked to Kou for more than once. Write in black, you stupid dog.)

To Shirogane:

practice makes perfect ♥

P.S. remember to close your eyes! (srsly. staring is creepy.)

Shirogane stops flicking back and forth between windows as he holds his tea in one hand wondering what the fuck that even means.
