I Choo-Choo-Choose You

[asano_san]

Who: Asano Keigo and his Valentines
When: Saturday, February 11, throughout the day
Where: The Underground Mall
Summary: One thing led to another after the TFLN virus hit his NV, and now Keigo has to hand out ten Valentine's Day cards.
Warnings: Potential Keigo humiliation?


Keigo wanted to ignore Grell's dare, or whatever it was, to pass out cards to ten people. However, thoughts of what the Reaper next door might do if he didn't go through with it meant that today was delivery day. He found some printable Valentines, so at least that was taken care of. He didn't know if Grell would count "printed on the computer" as handmade, so just to be safe, he added some glitter. There. Totally handmade. And a little lumpy. [As of the thread with Rainbow Dash, the animals all have sunglasses drawn on them in pen.]

The next problem was finding ten recipients. Keigo didn't know enough women, and too many of the ones he did know were off-limits for various reasons, mainly having to do with the threat of physical violence. He even thought about handing them out to guys with lots of explaining, but he didn't want to give friends like Kazuma the ammunition.

What he needed was a place with a bunch of strangers. He could offer every cute girl who passed by a Valentine, and they would be so flattered they would accept. Then he would win them over with his charm and have so many date options for Valentine's Day, there would be a waiting list. How hard could it be?

Keigo went to the Underground Mall. This might not be done before Sirens.

((Open log. Come get a Valentine from Keigo, or just make fun of him and his kindergarten-craft-hour-reject cards. Prose or action tags are both fine by me.))

[She was only dropping in on her way to work. She had a few things she wanted to check out, and she needed some more notions for her dress and the one fabric store in the mall was the one she liked. They often had interesting things to choose from.

Rounding a corner, she wasn't paying attention and stopped just barely short of bumping into someone.]

Keigo?

[asano_san]

[At this point, Keigo is not expecting much from anyone who actually knows him, so when he turns toward the voice calling his name, he's ready to defend himself. Seeing that it's Jubilee, he has to stop to reconsider his chances.

Probably not violent. Probably not interested in him. At all. But might take a Valentine to be nice.

He pulls out one of the bee ones and holds it out to her. Rainbow Dash liked them, and Jubilee seems like someone who would like awesome things, too.]

Happy Valentine's Day?

[thelittlestbub]

[She grins and takes the card, looking at it before leaning in and OMG KISSING HIS CHEEK.]

Thanks Keigo. What're you doing here?

[asano_san]

[And the day instantly becomes a success!]

I'm here to pass out Valentines.

[He remembers what Nelliel told him and doesn't add that he's only doing it because he has to.]

[thelittlestbub]

[She grins. She's always glad to help!]

Well, that's sweet of you, Keigo. I'm sure everyone appreciates it. Just be careful, okay?

[asano_san]

[Almost muttered to himself.] Not everyone.

[And this is a new - and worrying - warning.]

Be careful? Why do I need to be careful?

[thelittlestbub]

[A head cock to the side.]

Why wouldn't they appreciate it? It's a sweet gesture. And it's just in general. Ever since the whole Groundhog's Day thing... people have been jumpy.

[A shrug.]

[asano_san]

I guess not everyone. The first p- girl I gave one to liked them, and Nelliel was nice. But someone else threw hers out as soon as she thought I couldn't see her anymore!

I'll watch out.

[thelittlestbub]

[Have another a kiss on the cheek, Keigo!]

Good, then I'll see you around huh? I've gotta get something and head to work. Thanks again Keigo, and Happy Valentine's Day!

[asano_san]

Yeah, see you later. Happy Valentine's Day!

[He watches as she leaves, and it looks like she's not even going to throw out her Valentine!]
