Fuck yes bandwagon. Please keep in mind that I might take a while to get to actually writing these--I still have homework to finish and I might be too dumb to write anything decent by then, but I want to be in b4 meme dies down anyway so. :(

Give me a prompt and I'll write you a drabble

"I don't... really mind it?" Darry remarks as Ikuto leads her on through the thick of the forest, wondering why he so abruptly asked her opinion on ice cream. She had never given much thought to the cool treat, but at the same time she wonders why is it that so many people find them so enjoyable. She never had any time for those kinds of things back home--what with piloting and training and all--so she finds that she doesn't mind it all that much when Ikuto takes her hand, telling her that they're almost there.

"I think you'll have an opinion by the time we're done," he says, sticking his tongue out at her teasingly for a brief moment. Then he tells her to close her eyes really quickly, and she shoots him a skeptical glance but does as she's told anyway.

When he finally tells her to open her eyes, there's a wide expanse of colorful flowers laying in front of her, and it's almost like a completely different place away from the island altogether. It smells sweet from all the flavors of ice cream. There's a delightfully surprised look on her face, but it quickly dissolves when she notices the entertained look that Ikuto's giving her.

"Go ahead and pick one," he tells her. But there's so many flavors to choose from, she almost gets a headache. "Can't pick?"

She shakes her head no, and watches as he squeezes her hand ever so slightly and bends down to pick a flower blooming with an ivory scoop.

"Vanilla's nice," he comments, and holds up the flower to her face. Hesitating a bit at first, Darry takes a small lick out of it.

She might just have an opinion by the end of the day, after all.
