Third Heaven's Feel

[kill_order]

[Ilya's out and about this fine day, wandering about the neighborhoods, amusing herself with the endless loop the town is stuck in, and watching people give Valentines. While she is aware of this holiday, she's never really seen it close-up since she spent her entire childhood locked in an isolated castle in the middle of The Boondocks, Germany.

[waving you over]

Hey, Ilya. I've got something for you.

[kill_order]

[Oh! She perks up and walks over to him with a notable bounce in her step] Hi Onii-chan! ... For me? What is it?

[artwithknives]

[offering up a rose]

Happy Valentine's Day!

[kill_order]

[Blink. Blink blink.]

A rose...? [She takes it, looks at it, then like... sparkles in happiness] Thank you, onii-chan!! [And clings to his arm, hugging it happily]

[artwithknives]

[patting Ilya's head]

You're welcome. I wish I had something homemade but hopefully that'll be enough for you.

[kill_order]

[Totally enjoying it]

Oh, that's more than enough, onii-chan. I never thought anyone would give me any sort of gifts for Valentine's Day! And... a rose... [Basking in her mental image of romantic implications]

[artwithknives]

Why don't you think anyone would get you something? If you want something else, I'd be happy to get it for you.

[kill_order]

It's kinda like it is at home. I don't have too many friends. And if I remember, Valentine's Day is supposed to be a romantic holiday... so I really didn't think anyone would...

[artwithknives]

Mind if I do something then?

[kill_order]

Besides give me a rose...?

[artwithknives]

Yeah.

[kill_order]

Sure, onii-chan!

[artwithknives]

[He feels sorry for you :( so have a hug]

[kill_order]

[There's an incoherent noise of shock, then she blushes, deeply, and then she hugs him back. Well, more like clings]

[artwithknives]

There's always someone who'll care for you so it's okay.

[kill_order]

[She's not really sure how to respond to that, so she lowers her face] I guess.
