[He sucks in his cheek but doesn't deny the charge. Then his eyes light up when Elan says that last thing.]
Oh? Now that sounds exciting! I'll bring a housewarming gift! Besides just myself, of course.
[There's no more scrubbing left to do, so he gives Elan some space. They'll still be knee-to-knee when Elan turns around, though, Hiyori's teasing smile reflecting in the bathroom mirror.]
You won't have decorated the bedroom to look like a spaceship, will you?
[He reaches past Elan for the detachable showerhead so he can begin rinsing himself off.]
I won't let it look completely boring. I'll bring a gift that adds a touch of elegance ♪ Perhaps some flowers, or a potted plant. Unless there's something in particular you'd like.
Most don't require anything besides watering. And light, but even then, there are some that thrive in low-light conditions. Sort of like you, I guess.
[Or some other people he's known. Nagisa was trapped in a dark room during his formative years, and yet he's thriving now.]
If you like, I could throw in a watering can! I figured you might like something from nature, since you seem rather outdoorsy. But if there's something else you want, feel free to drop hints.
[He winks.]
Or you can just ask for it. I love good boys who ask for what they want!
I wouldn't want you to worry too much about getting me something, since it sounds like you've been living on ramen. Though a giftswap does sound fun...
[He finishes rinsing off his front, then Elan's for good measure, taking care not to spray the water onto his head. He doesn't want to show up to his room with wet hair.]
I'm not that picky, to be honest. I like interesting souvenirs. I also like tea leaves, regional sweets, decorations, fragrances, and gifts that I could give to my adorable Bloody Mary! ♪ So I guess you might as well surprise me.
[He laughs lightly at that, like the nice person he is. He can't help it; Elan shaking his wet ducktail reminds him of a bird shaking its feathers dry! But he'll move the showerhead behind Elan's head next, to rinse the suds off his back.]
If you're strapped for ideas, you can always give me another private concert. That's the kind of gift that money can't buy ♪ I'd say you're good at giving me those, anyway.
Works for me! Or we could split the bill. Whichever works ♪
[He'll put back the shower head after rinsing both of them off thoroughly. And, with that, he stands up. He's not sure if Elan wants to wash his hair or anything, but as for himself, he'll be reaching for a towel. Good thing Elan's willing to share his!]
[He turns to look in the mirror, checking to see how damp his hair is and making a futile attempt to smooth it down. Maybe he'll say he wanted to try out the sauna?
As for Elan's question, well, it sure is. Any longer and Jun will probably start wandering the halls, calling out "Ohii-san, where the hell are ya this time?" But rather than confirm that, he turns to Elan and suggests a compromise.]
If that seems too lonely, why not say something else? Like "Goodbye for now" instead of just "Goodbye."
[He blinks, not having expected that, before smiling even more warmly.]
Works for me!
[He steps out to get his robe after that, the feeling of Elan's lips still lingering on his cheek. It'll be the last kiss he receives from Elan-kun for a while, no doubt, but not the last one ever. He has faith in that. And the next one won't be in a cramped bathroom, if he has his way!
He'll be out putting his clothes back on and getting ready to leave. He checks his phone before going anywhere, and sure enough, there's at least one message asking where he is, but he can cover things up.
Whenever Elan rejoins him he looks up from his phone and smiles.]
Don't be a stranger, alright? I'd like to see a picture of whatever "view" you find next.
[ Elan, in the meantime, is getting cozy with some pajamas. He's not going anywhere else tonight, apparently. He finally joins Hiyori after a few moments and arches a brow. ]
Sure, sure. I'll send you something or other when I get a chance. There's bound to be something you'll find interesting, right?
[ He hums. ]
And the same goes for you. Send me something interesting.
[Pajamas instead of a hotel robe, huh? It's a cute, cozy look, so Hiyori doesn't disapprove. So much so that he says,]
Yep! I'll be sure to. And if you're ever strapped for ideas, you can always send a cute photo of yourself wearing pajamas ♪
[One last tease for the night.
With his phone in hand, he starts walking towards the door. He steps into his slippers, reaching to slide the door open. But not before he tosses Elan a sincere smile.]

[ He retorts over his shoulder and lifts his hand to wave it a little dismissively. ]
I won't spring for a love hotel next time. Maybe I'll finally have my own place by then. Although I can't guarantee it'll be fancy.

No, no I won't. I think I'm over spaceship designs...

It'll probably be boring and normal, honestly. But I think I might like that for a little while.
