Winter Lullaby: A charm, a dog, chocolates and arrows [Video/Action for Toto]

Hey everyone! This game with the arrows was fun! Shiro liked it a lot!

[Of course, she did. She won the first prize.]

So Shiro wants to know: who else won a prize at the game? [She read the names but she doesn't know who the people are.] And also where the doggie is gone? ...And when the next game is?

...There will be a next game, right? Shiro wants to play again!

...Toto? Thanks for playing with Shiro and thanks for the chocolates! But Shiro wonders... Why did Toto put a flower on Shiro's pillow? [Talking about the rose.]

{ Hagire may be a doctor, but he chose a relatively small, unassuming home like their apartment for a reason; it blended in. It was hiding in plain sight. }

Mm? Oh, no reason. Just felt like it. ☆

{ Hagire responded, as innocently as possible. He was in the middle of sterilizing his needles, in preparation for replacing the stitches on his arms. }

[Shiro picks the rose cautiously. It's a good thing she's always wearing thick mitts and gloves. She sniffs it. It's true that it does smell nice.

She walks closer to him, still holding the rose.] No reason? Shiro hears it's a Valentine's Day thing.

Well, yeah, it was. I knew you'd love it. ☆

{ She's too smart for that. He should have known. Shiro was far, far more intelligent than she usually lets on. It must be because of the Wretched Egg.

As she approached him, he turned to face her, grinning ear to ear. }

You do, right?

[Shiro blushes, looking down at the rose to avoid "Toto" 's look.] It's nice. But Shiro prefers chocolate.

[A beat before she looks back at him.] ...No one ever gave Shiro a flower before, though. Thank you, Toto.

You never get tired of chocolate, do you?

{ A rhetorical question. Shiro had a legendary sweet tooth; her teeth would probably be ruined by now if it weren't for her healing factor. He just laughed, putting a hand behind the back of his own head, leaning back. }

Don't mention it. Just tell 'Aceman' that it's for her, too. ☆

I got one.

Toto? I thought the dog's name was Cupid.

[ He's from too early a time to understand the reference.]

So, that flower is called a rose. It smells nice. Stores were selling a bunch for Valentines Day.

It is! Toto is not a dog. Toto is Toto.

[So helpful, Shiro. But at least she seems to realize it, so she shows her background so that a young man with green hair in a lab coat can be seen.

Shiro gives the rose a quizzical look.] Shiro prefers chocolates and candy.

Okay?
[ He doesn't get it right away.]

So, that guy is Toto?

I prefer the chocolate as well. I never had chocolate before coming to Genessia.

[Shiro nods.] Toto is Shiro's friend.

Mister funny hat never had chocolate before? [She looks half-sad half-horrified.]

It's good that you have a friend with you.

My name's Joruk.
[ Not that he's expecting to be called anything but 'Mister funny hat']

I don't come from a place and time where it's readily available.

I won chocolates and a rose... Which is the best.

[She pauses for a moment.]

I'm sure we'll see cupid again next year to play another fun game.

Shiro won a charm. That is the best.

[Don't try to confuse her, Minako. She got chocolates and a rose from her roommate anyway. Not that she cares much about the rose but well.]

...Next year? [Shiro sounds disappointed.] It's a long time.

Yeah, but you have to win four for them to be of actual use. I have one of my own so I would know, but chocolate makes you have a good feeling for a nice while.

[She folds her arms slightly, giving a small nod.]

It is, but that's the only time of the year Cupid would be involved in anyway.

Miss has one too? How did Miss get hers?

Shiro knows it takes four to make a wish but Shiro can already use this one. [She flips her long white hair behind one of her ears to show the charm turned into a makeshift earring.]

[A slight pout.] But even if the dog doesn't want to play, there could be other games!

I played another game so to speak. But details aren't necessary.

[Well that was an interesting use for a charm if she ever saw one. Given the way the other acts she kind of things it was someone else they might have known that came up with the idea.]

That is true, you just need to find the people who are willing to play, of course.
