Report 004 [Video/Voice|Backdated to the afternoon of the 15th of February (because the mun fails)]

Feb 17, 2011 21:49

[Ah, Valentine's Day. Or rather, the day after Valentine's Day, because Robert was far too mopey (over a certain ex-partner of eight years ago and some certain feelings that have been bothering him as of late) and awkward to actually try to talk to anybody during the actual day. Plus he was attempting to make the most of the advice he had gotten...

A gift? I wasn't expecting anything. You really didn't need to do it.

[But now it probably seems rude to shun it. But how will Arthur feel if she's receiving gifts from another man?]

I, er, simply wished to communicate how much I have appreciated your company. I assure you it means nothing other than that. [He's mildly flustered. Even if Robert doesn't feel anything abnormal for Ami, he doesn't want to be a bother.]

[She shakes off her worries.] I understand. I'm glad that you'd think of me.

[Aaaand maybe she can do something, very small, for White Day.]

It hardly seems right not to consider you amongst the esteemed members of Luceti I have met so far, Doctor Mizuno. [Ami doesn't need to worry about Robert - he's already mildly troubled by his strange feelings for the two above.]

[They've reversed roles if he's giving her things now and she repays it then, but on the other hand it'd be rude not to return it...]

I appreciate that. Would you like to meet, then?

Certainly, if you would not be against it. Whether you come here, or I go there, either situation is equally acceptable to me at the moment.

If you were thinking of coming over, I could prepare some tea for you. [It's still out from when he made some for Helios... Ah, but thinking about Helios is making him feel all weirdly-fuzzy.]

I'll come over. You're already going out of your way for me.

I would be delighted to have your company. [Robert's voice smiles gently along with him. It's always nice to talk to Ami - someone so much like himself - and know that she's pretty much feeling how he is.

Off he goes to brew that tea while he waits for Ami. His apartment is starting to smell really nice now, between the fresh tea scent and the chocolate.]

[And before long, there'll be a quiet knock at the door.]

[Robert immediately hurries over to the door and opens it, giving her a welcoming look. For him.]

Ah, hello, Doctor Mizuno. Please come in. [He gestures inside in a way that makes it obvious he doesn't do this much.] Make yourself at home...

I'm sorry for intruding. [She murmurs the polite phrase and steps inside.]

You're hardly intruding - it was I who invited you, Doctor Mizuno. And besides, your company is always appreciated.

[Robert heads over to where the desk is and picks up the box for Ami, complete with the clearly-written note on it. He hands it to her.] And this is for you... I realize it is, er, standard... But I still hope that you like it, regardless.

Thank you very much. [She accepts the package with a small bow, and opens it neatly.]

[It's a simple box of chocolates, which look to be high-quality - certainly not something throwaway, but Robert looks mildly awkward about it.]

I, er, wished to get you something more... personal, but I sadly know very little about what you like. [Robert stares at the floor a bit.]

[Ami shakes her head.] I'm very thankful. This is the first I've ever received something for Valentine's Day. [Who was she going to give something to in Japan? And in America, the customs had been different and she hadn't been dating yet.]

Re: [Voice/Action] semper_cogitans February 21 2011, 04:56:46 UTC
Really? Someone as kind and intelligent as yourself? [Robert... is genuinely sad to hear this.]

Well, you certainly deserve to receive something. I am glad that I could do this for you, then.
