I'm everywhere you want me to be )
The knock was welcomed and had been waited for as Rhyme jumped off her bed and threw open the door. Sitting on her bed was a rather large package, but not heavy because of it's contents. She was bubbling with excitement to give him the gift, having not pre-empted that a rabbit might not be so welcome right now.
Her smile flashed out and she reached her arms around his middled instinctively, desperate for the contact of who she considered another member of her family. "Izumi!" It had been a long couple of weeks without her second brother around. Too long, in Rhyme's mind. "It's so good to see you again! Do you want to come in for a few minutes or should we just get going?" She didn't mind what they did, they didn't even have to go for lunch if he didn't want to. She was just happy to see him again and to feel less alone.

"Well, I'm not really all that hungry. You mind if I dump this on you first?" A nod toward the package in his arms should've indicated that it was meant for Rhyme. It really wasn't much, just a music box. But someone like Rhyme would probably find some use from it.

"Izumi!! You didn't have to get me anything, but thank you!!" Taking his hand, she brought him even further into the room and sat on the edge of her bed, hoping he would do the same. "I got you something too!"
((The song in the music box..Is it from Elfen-Lied? ^^ ))

"Let's open them together, ok? On one. Three...two....one!" Ripping the paper off the box, her eyes widened in wonder at the sight of beautiful music box. Smiling gently as her eyes took in every detail of the box, she opened it adventurously and was a bit shocked to hear the lovely melody sprung forth from the confines of the box.
"Izumi...It's so pretty!! Thank you!!! I love it! This is really nice! I've never had something so nice like this!" One of the happiest thoughts sparked in her mind; she could put her bell necklace from her biological brother into the safe, pretty box that her second brother had given her.
((Oh no! I haven't watched much but what I've heard of the song is really pretty! ^^ And Izumi is getting a box of chocolates as well as a hamdmade bunny ( ... )

Oh. His gift. Yellow eyes looked down at the package. Sighing, Izumi knew it would hurt the girl if he didn't open it. It was just a little weird, the Shinigami wasn't accustomed to receiving gifts. Opening the present, yellow eyes widened. Suddenly, a warm chuckle escaped the cold Shinigami. "So this is why you asked what my favorite animal was." Taking out the plushie, Izumi examined the toy. "Thanks Bell-chan. I really appreciate this."

Sliding off her bed, she wrapped her arms around him tightly, squishing the bunny in between the two of them. "You really like it? Her ears are a little floppy, I'm sorry about that, but I thought it was ok since some bunnies are supposed to have floppy ears?"
The music of the box tingled along in the background and she couldn't help but feel perfectly happy with the sound. She made a resolution to memorize the melody as soon as possible.

Sooner or later, she was going to find out. How much longer was later?
"The ears are just fine, Bell-chan. You worked really hard on this, didn't you?"
Reply
"I know it's not a very manly gift or anything, but it's the thought that counts, right? I did work pretty hard on it." She admitted, humbly looking down with a little smile to scratch the back of her head.

"A gift is a gift, Bell-chan. It would be incredibly rude for me to worry whether or not the gift looked "manly." Just as long as I know the one who made it is a very sweet girl, I can live with it."

"I'm just glad you like it, Izumi. I was hoping you would. You don't have to sleep with it or anything. I just wanted to make you something by hand. I think the bunny turned out all right."
