"I..see. Your father is requesting for your presence in the-"

Shiho cuts the attendant off, "I know!"

She looks down...to see Ryuuki struggling and giving her a look that was definitely his 'help me Shiho, I'm going to die' look and she panics, "Tell him I'm coming and if he comes up again or you come in, I'm never speaking to him. Ever!"

She attempts to hold the dress up with her arms alone, and tries dragging Ryuuki in with both hands free. Just for good measure though, she turns and shouts at the door, "Never ever, you hear me?! Never!!"

[likes_pandas]

Ryuuki might have rejoiced at the fact that Shiho was saving him except the mention of her father had him cowering silently. Shiho's father was honestly one of the most terrifying people he's ever met. One look and he could have Ryuuki confessing to every misdeed he's ever committed and even some he hadn't.

So he was staying quiet as a mouse as Shiho pulls him into her room.

[i_have_a_taser]

It was a gift of her father's and made him extremely effective as a judge.

Crisis averted (or so Shiho hoped), she turns to Ryuuki, hand still holding up the dress, "I'm glad you came to surprise me...but you really have the worst timing, Ryuuki."

[likes_pandas]

"Sorry."

Said Ryuuki while looking like a kicked puppy.

[i_have_a_taser]

She considers staying angry for a bit longer. But she'd be lying to herself if she said that she was angry.

Besides, that kicked puppy look was very effective.

With a sigh, she reaches up to ruffle his hair, "Don't worry about it. Now help me with lacing this dress back up."

[likes_pandas]

"Okay!" He set the bag down and went to work on that, only too happy to get back into her good graces.

He was surprisingly good at doing this. Though maybe not surprising given the rumours of his activities before he suddenly disappeared one night with Byakuya. (And eventually joined the crew of the Serenity, but that was a whole other story.)

[i_have_a_taser]

Shiho has complicated feelings over how good he is at lacing her dress. On the one hand, he was close and smelled nice and she could feel her heart skip a beat when his fingers brush against the fabric of her dress.

On the other hand, the only way for a man to know how to lace a dress so quickly and so well could only mean that he had laced a lot of them in his lifetime. It isn't like she hadn't heard the rumours.

She lifts her hair up so he can tie the bow again, mood getting worse the more she thinks about it. "Hey. Promise me something."

[likes_pandas]

It didn't even occur to him that this would cause any complicated feelings. If anything, he was quite pleased with himself.

Surely this will make up for the fact that he had bad timing, right? Absolutely!

"What is it?"

[i_have_a_taser]

"My dress is going to be the last dress you ever lace up. Promise me?"


And it's phrased as a question, because Shiho wants to give him a choice to back out. But at the same time, the expression on her face when she looks at him says that this really isn't a choice.

[likes_pandas]

He blinked. It wasn't such a big deal. It wasn't like he's done this at all since he came back from the Serenity.

Ryuuki just wasn't quite sure where this came from. Well, whatever the reason, he will promise her anyway. It's her birthday after all.

"I promise." He finished lacing up her dress and stepped back, looking far too proud of his accomplishment(?).

"There."

[i_have_a_taser]

She pokes his cheek, because no one she liked would be allowed to look so proud of an accomplishment like that.

"And if you ever lace up another woman's dress, I'll kill you."

[likes_pandas]

"Okay."

Then he actually stopped and processed her words. Then his eyes went wide.

"Wait. What? Why?"

[i_have_a_taser]

"Figure that out yourself."

She does her very best to look impervious (and actually manages quite well) as she flips her hair over one shoulder and secures it with a glittering pin.

[likes_pandas]

"...can't you give me a hint?"

[i_have_a_taser]

"It's my birthday. I can do whatever I want."

[likes_pandas]

Her birthday.

It's her birthday!

Of course it was. Otherwise he wouldn't be here so late!

Ryuuki beamed at her and started rummaging in his bag, their current conversation completely put out of his mind.

"Shiho! I have something for you!"

[i_have_a_taser]

"For me?"

The dress-thing is briefly forgotten, because how can she not be pleased when Ryuuki is giving her something? (Unless it was a wagon-load of radishes. That had been weird.)

[likes_pandas]

(The wagon-load of radishes had been a fantastic idea, okay?)

"Yes!" He pulled out a long, rectangular box and presented it to her proudly. "Happy birthday, Shiho!"

[i_have_a_taser]

She takes the box (since it is too small to be a wagon-load of radishes this time) and smiles up at him, "Thank you, Ryuuki! Can I open it?"

[likes_pandas]

"Of course! It's a present for you after all." And to be honest, he was a little excited to see her face when she saw what was inside.

[i_have_a_taser]

And when she opens it, she sees a beautiful grey-blue blown glass lantern.

"Oh!"

[likes_pandas]

"It runs on a mana crystal so you don't have to worry about it getting hot." He had gotten the inspiration from the light Jenny had given him when they were on the Serenity.

"I always see that your light is on late into the night when I pass by so I thought this might be useful."

[i_have_a_taser]

She takes a moment to admire the lantern as she listens to him tell her what it is before she smiles up at him, genuinely happy, "Thank you, Ryuuki. I'll treasure it."

[likes_pandas]

And just those words were enough to make Ryuuki glow with pride and happiness. Nothing made him happier than being able to make the people around him happy.

"You're welcome, Shiho."
