[ In the midday hours of Valentine's Day, a little package is left outside of Rowan's hotel room. It's wrapped up in pink decorative ribbons and wrapping, and has a little tiger shaped note with Yuji's handwriting.

Rowan,

Have as many lipbalm sticks as you want! Enjoy them! I found you a chocolate in a strawberry shape, please enjoy it!

Yuji

There are a handful of small chocolates, in the promised shapes, inside the box. ]

[runir]

[Oh... this is entirely unexpected, but it makes him smile to see the little package awaiting him. So rarely is he gifted anything out of the blue, and during such a short period of knowing someone -- but it's welcome in its oddity.

A bit later, a message boops on over to Yuji's DMs.]

hello
and htank you for the chocolate

I didn't think I might receive a gift from anyone, being so new, so your kindness is much appreciated.

I do like the tiger, too.

[eyescar]

hi!! you're welcome!! please enjoy it!! i know normally girls do valentines day but i wanted to do something nice

(it's because i was called a 'tiger' at school)

[runir]

We dont have "VAlentines" day in my world. However, I did read about it on this network, so perhaps I can adopt it when I return.
any excuse for chocolate, hm?

Was it some kind of title?

[eyescar]

that seems to be the case. people go crazy for sweet stuff

kind of. i was pretty intense in middle school

[runir]

[what's a middle school]

was it a compliment ?

[or...not]

[eyescar]

the "tiger of the west"... because i beat people up...

[runir]

Ah

[Well.]

there is something to be said abut having passion
and I'm certain the ferocity that comes with that moniker suited you

It's all a matter of where to properly direct it, sometimes

[eyescar]

it's okay! i use it all to fight curses and stuff now, so it's not a problem!

[runir]

oh?
Fierce, indeed
What sort of curses?

[eyescar]

the kind that comes from humans
most people can't see them, so we have to do it

[runir]

[Can't see them? Quite interesting; so that makes this young man very singular, doesn't it.]

Does that make you inhuman?

Or simply a hman with special capabilities?

[eyescar]

aha... these days i'm more of a "cursed object" than a person

[runir]

oh

That's unflattering.

you seem a person to me

[eyescar]

i still look pretty human, yeah!

[runir]

so then why would you be called an object instead

[eyescar]

because that's what i am?

[runir]

[help... Rowan feels like he's missing some context here

... ]

but did you not just say that you fight curses? but you're also a cursed object?

[eyescar]

yup! but i'm a good guy, don't worry!

[runir]

i didn't say you weren't
I suppose I'm just a bit befuddled as to how that came to be.

but you needn't explain if you don't wish to

[eyescar]

oh, i ate a finger

[runir]

On purpose?

[eyescar]

yeah? the first time

[runir]

ah

[rowan is typing...]



well It's true, fingers are nothing but trouble

[eyescar]

tell me about it!!
