V-Day Means Work Day. [OPEN]

[thewarisover]

Characters: Roy and other Workaholics
Location: The DOGS Office
Rating: G for now!
Time: February 14, after training until whenever!
Description: What do you do while love is in the air and a chocolate craze has hit Death City? Work like nobody's business.



Even with all of the buzz and the excitement, Valentine's Day was just another day, wasn't it? That meant that people got up, people trained, and people went to work, especially if they happened to be employed with DOGS and the Watch.

Of course, Death City had a way of making things stop being normal pretty quickly...

Neji came by the office again in the evening to drop off his own report for his district, quite looking forward to returning home and sleeping away most of the day's strangeness. Tomorrow would be better with the holiday over, he was sure, and silently hoped there wouldn't be another holiday at all for awhile.

Mildly suspicious of food in general now, however, he stared at the bun that had been more or less forced on him in front of Shuurei's desk with a frown.

"...Thank you. You made these..?"

People had been acting somewhat strange that day but that Shuurei was still in a happy mood and oblivious to any oddities in her own behavior. She smiled as she answered Neji.

"Yes, I often made these back in Saiunkoku. They're filled with red bean paste and ground sesame. The sesame keeps them from being too sweet and my friends couldn't stop eating them."

Then, she spots the report and reaches out eagerly for it. "Is that your report for today? I'll take good care of it."

okay I've decided Neji really likes these

[heavenly_earth]

As a general rule, Neji didn't find himself drawn to anything terribly sweet, and had initially intended to pass it off to one of the girls at home, but now...

"Ah, yes, thank you." He handed his report over, eyeing the boxes with barely concealed interest. "..Do you mind if I take a few home for Lain and my cousins? I'm sure they'd like them."

Sorry for the lateness! It's been crazy here

Shuurei took the report and carefully added it to the growing pile as if it were something precious.

"Of course." She smiled, pushing a box of buns towards Neji. "Please, take as many as you would like."

"Lain is your partner, correct?" She recalled a girl mentioning that she was Neji's partner in a message over the mirror. "Oh, did you have another cousin here besides Hanabi? I didn't realize."

its alright!

[heavenly_earth]

Neji may have questioned the almost loving way his report was being handled if it had any of his attention, but he was caught up in attempting to figure out how many it'd be acceptable to take.

"That's correct. And Hinata-sama just arrived a few days ago with the most recent batch.. She's Hanabi-san's older sister."

He wound up holding five- one to eat on the way home, and one to eat with his partner and cousins when he got there.
