[ log ; ongoing ]
When; March 25, near noon
Rating; PG
Characters; Lelouch [ lel0uch ] & Shirley Fenette [ refrainingly ] but lol, interference is totally okay. J-just ping-a-ling me?
Summary; Because some things will always demand special attention, with or without a rebellion to worry about on the sidelines. Women are just that.
Log;
Rebellion plans or no, Lelouch had to admit that he had been carelessly regretful. He didn't even have the luxury to use a packed schedule for forgetting the important date ten days ago; it had been his own failure that lead to his situation right now. And he'd been failing for a while now, falling into that disgusting state of stagnation that he so despised, and forgetting the importance - no, disregarding the importance of establishing social networks, and upholding friends. He was going to rectify that. Didn't he promise to do so a few days ago?
Of course, that day had been a waste because he found himself completely unable to decide on what exactly to gift someone who he, admittedly, didn't know as much as he would have liked. Add the fact that this was a girl in the equation and Lelouch was admittedly, or had admittedly been, stumped. And there was that recruitment to add to that day--
In any case, Lelouch was sure that it would be most wise to return what had been gifted to him, and as soon as possible too. He wasn't going to dwell on the fact that it still boggled him somewhat why women even gave out chocolates and confectionaries on Valentine's Day; had he made any indication that he wanted a gift?
There was, naturally, the option of simply forgoing any attempts to conform into societal norms regarding the Japanese Valentines/White Day practices... but--
No, Lelouch was sure he was making a right and wise decision by doing this. After all, he reminded himself, he had more reason to keep social relationships in check now. The more allies the better; and what better way to keep them than by being their friend?
Friends exchange gifts on special occasions.
And a wise person knew exactly where his limits lay; which was why Lelouch eventually ended up at Shirley's doorstep, confident that he would not be crossing paths with anymore old friends from their world in doing so. Shirley would know what to give another girl.
He pressed the doorbell and waited.
