Shunsui, ever the gentleman, arrived at Nanao's door precisely at the arranged time. He knew proper date etiquette after all, and it typically dictated that the man arrived on time and the woman took between ten minutes to an hour to finish getting ready. Of course, there was nearly nothing typical about Nanao. Shunsui smiled softly, a rather dopily happy glazed look coming into his expressive eyes. If anyone would have seen him, though, those eyes would have been shadowed by the wide brim of his hat. A man had to hide his weak points, you see. Shunsui sighed, not a heavy, dramatic sigh of despair, but one more akin to the sigh of a dreamer staring up at the clouds. No, nothing typical about Nanao at all. She was intelligent, and beautiful, and she resisted him. At first her resistance had been something to play with, a fun game for him to see if he could win her over ( ... )

Nanao jumped at the sight of a ghostly arm appearing on her side of the door, followed soon after by the sound of Shunsui's voice. It irritated her (there must be more gentlemanly ways to announce one's presence!) though as he could not knock, she decided not to mention it.

Her heart, which had been fluttering nervously before, began to race and she swallowed, her mouth suddenly dry. "I- I'm coming." she called, when she was absolutely certain that she was completely under control. There- there was no good reason for her to be this nervous, so it definitely would not do for himto get the wrong idea about anything.

She took a deep breath, telling herself that she could do this. Yes. Yes- she did want to go and spend an evening with him. Even though he was loud, and ridiculous, and unexpected... and despite her hesitation and her fear and everything else Nanao wanted to spend time with him and find out more about him ( ... )

"Ah," was all the normally implacable ghost could think to say, blinking stupidly for several moments after Nanao walked through the door. Shunsui was generally a very bright man, quick thinking, if lazy, and capable of solving a wide and impressive variety of problems when he put his mind to it, but as soon as Nanao appeared on the other side of the door without opening it first, he felt as though his brain had stopped working entirely. For a moment, at least ( ... )

Stop that! Nanao ordered herself as she found herself nervously twiddling her thumbs together. So what if he was staring at her like that? It was only because she'd surprised him.

As he leant down to her (how he was still so much taller than her as a ghost, she couldn't understand) she braced herself for the worst. She wasn't sure she could do this. Despite herself Nanao met his eyes and was momentarily confused by the familiar twinkle she saw there ( ... )
