...'tis the season, innit?

[Seras is chuckling to herself, amused by the last few posts to the network she's seen.]

Never really had a chance to get in to the whole Valentine's Day thing, but it's sort of sweet, y'know? Seein' everyone bein' nice to each other an' all. I get the feeling that's not exactly common around here, so it's good t'see the

[After seeing her post, he of course has to remedy this situation. The feeling left after that random pang of intense pain had nothing at all to do with him knocking on her door. No, he was really just here to help her. Really.]

Hey, Seras? You in there?

[ACKSHUN]

[the_police_girl]

[Blinkblink.

She's curled up on her bed with a book, and... not doing much else besides that so what harm could it do her for him to just come in?]

Uhm, yeah. Come in, it's unlocked.

BECAUSE IT WASN'T OBVIOUS

[failsatsecrets]

[He opens the door and leans in the doorway.]

You're really never done anything for Valentine's Day?

Dx

[the_police_girl]

Aah, no. [Sheepish smile goes here, and yet she shrugs a shoulder like it ain't no biggy.]

Never, uhm. Had time for it? I guess...

<3

[failsatsecrets]

I guess that makes sense. But you've got plenty of time now. Let's do something for Valentine's Day.

[the_police_girl]

[Face. Heating.]

Uhm- I. ..W--...

Y-you really want to? [BLINKING FOREVER.]

[failsatsecrets]

Of course I want to. Why wouldn't I?

We could have a romantic dinner. Wait, no, that wouldn't work. Hm... Well, we can skip dinner and just cuddle by the fire, then.

weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeird, tony

[the_police_girl]

[She's going to just. Stare. At him. For a loooooong while.]

...cuddle. ...by the fire.

He's just trying to get close to her

[failsatsecrets]

Yes, cuddle by the fire. My usual ideas for a date won't really work here, since there aren't any galas to attend, or plays or movies to see. I'm sure I could come up with a bottle of wine, if you're able to drink it.

[the_police_girl]

I uhm. [Sort of flabbergasted here.]

I've never tried, b-but I'm sure there's no harm in it... [Stands up with a little smile, sort of confused, but...whatever. She's never gotten to do anything for Valentine's Day before. This should be fun, right?]

[failsatsecrets]

That's exactly what I wanted to hear. But don't get up just yet. Meet me downstairs in fifteen minutes. I have to go get the wine first.

[the_police_girl]

[Annnnd so she sits back down.]

W-well, okay. [Being a blushing (BUT TOTALLY CONFUSED) schoolgirl over here because oh god what is even.]

...You want me to just...wait up here?

[failsatsecrets]

Just for a few. I'll come up and get you when I'm back.

[the_police_girl]

Okay. [Small smile.] ...be safe, okay? [because it's SO DANGEROUS WITH ALL THE LOVE GOING ON OUTSIDE.]

[failsatsecrets]

[He can't help but laugh at that.] I'll be fine.

[And he rushes off to get the wine. And then there's some noise downstairs, as if he's moving around some furniture. After what's more like half an hour, he comes back up to her room.]

Alright, it's all ready. C'mon.

[the_police_girl]

[Yeah she heard all that noise and she is preeeetty confused, but gets off her bed and follows him anyway.]

...What were you doing down there? [Grins a bit.]
