{ tie it up in a pretty little bow }

1. 'Tis The Season!
→ It's some holiday or another, and you don't want to be the one who breaks tradition by not giving a gift.

2. Happy Birthday!
→ Another year older! Is it their sweet sixteenth? The no-holds-barred-finally-legal 21? Or that stately eighty candles that might set the cake on fire...

3. Sweet Valentine
→ Not that you need a commercialized excuse to butter up your sweetheart, but if the heart-decorated chocolate truffle fits...

4. Anniversary
→ You didn't forget ~~this year~~! But seeing as how it only comes once a year, you'd better make it fantastic ~~or you'll be sleeping on the couch... again :(~~

5. Wedding Bells
→ It's the bride and groom's happiest day and you want to give them something to commemorate this momentous occasion!

6. Housewarming
→ Those new neighbors of yours are still getting settled. Why not give them something to welcome them to the neighborhood?

7. What Bribery?
→ It never hurts to get on someone's good side, right? Especially if they could make your life miserable if they don't like you...

8. Get Well Soon!
→ Someone's stuck in the hospital and you just know that a gift will put a smile back on their face.

9. Going Away
→ They have to leave and you can't go with them, but you'll wait until they return. Give them something to remind them of you while they're far away.

10. I Miss You!
→ Has it been a week? A year? However long they've been away, you want them to know you're still thinking of them.

11. I'm So Sorry
→ You've screwed up big time and apologies just don't feel good enough, but you'll give them a token of your sincerity.

12. You're Appreciated!
→ There's just no one else like that person! You know everything they've done for you and others and you to show your appreciation.

13. Glorious Victory!
→ Hail the conquering hero! It doesn't matter if they've run a marathon or usurped a kingdom, this calls for mighty spoils!

14. Secret Admirer~
→ You haven't quite worked up the courage to give them something in person, and hopefully they don't recognize your handwriting...

15. Wildcard
→ Anything else, go crazy with it.

[At the question, he clutches his gift tightly, still hidden behind his back. Paranoid minds tend to find any reason to subsume their guilt, and one as naive as Yukimura is no different.

Does she know? Had he slipped up somewhere? Mind racing, the poor boy begins to sweat.]

N-no-! Yes! Ah... [SUDDENLY LIFE IS HARD. So he opts for a direct approach. He tends to be the best at those. Revealing the gift at his back, he thrusts it forward in both hands and offers a bow. If his face were visible, it'd camouflage quite well with his jacket.] A gift, Tohru-dono! I-in celebration of the Valentine's Day festivities!

[Tohru tilts her head curiously in his direction when she hears his stammering and looks to him right as the gift is thrust in her face. She nearly drops the vanilla extract as her eyes widen in shock.

Apparently great, innocent mind think a like. She shakily sets the vanilla on the table before very carefully taking the gift. Her cheeks flush delicately and she looks up to him.]

I-...I..um..

[She glances to the bag then back to him. Tohru sets his gift down as rummages in the bag before pulling out a neatly wrapped red package. It's quite small...Tohru holds out the gift to him.]

I..I have a gift for you as well Yukimura-kun. Um, I made it during my work shifts...

[Tohru gently takes the gift she set aside a moment ago and holds it close to her chest.]

W-Would you like to open it together?

((ooc: :> a cute good luck bracelet for yukimura with matching gold coin charms~ so manry!))
