( happy 24th of july. as promised, a small birthday gift is dropped off by resort staff, sometime in the afternoon: a small tin of about a dozen small cookies. the tin itself is clearly a product of the resort, something grabbed from a souvenir shop— as if there would be any way for them to bring a souvenir back home— but the cookies are homemade, buttery and flavored with earl grey.
a piece of paper taped to the lid appears to have just been torn off the complimentary pads provided in the more generic suites. written on it in a hand that is certainly not that of an illiterate man is a list of ingredients, nice and normal and not spiked in the slightest. at the bottom, it merely reads happy birthday, followed first by a half-hearted, heavy handed scribble, then by kirma's name in a fancy script, decorated with a drawn pawprint and ears. it is impossible to say if he had any part in the creative direction of this.
all this to say: happy birthday to his favorite (and only) "coworker." hopefully you didn't get too cursed, buddy. )
[Hiyori was prepared. He stocked up on food and water, he warned the people closest to him, and he instructed Jun not to let in any visitors while he's suffering from his horrible curse. Today would be the day he'd receive his comeuppance from the House: he was sure of it!
But the comeuppance never comes. He doesn't feel cursed. And when he receives a delivery first thing in the morning, it's from Jin Mingming, not the House. A lovely-looking gift that fits him like a glove. She even threw in something for Jun-kun!
He's still wary he'll receive something else from the House later, which means he's highly suspicious of the second delivery. So what if it looks like a cookie tin? Perhaps the cookies were poisoned! Or, more likely, drugged with aphro. But he reads the attached note before he opens the lid, and that earns a big eyebrow raise.
With its adorable embellishments, that signature is fit to be an idol's. It tells him who the gift is allegedly from. Though who exactly wrote it when Kirma's supposed to be illiterate...?
Oh well. It doesn't matter, he supposes. It's the thought that counts.]
He'd be such a good, cute boy if not for that other stuff.
[But again, oh well. Now's not the time to dwell on the prince's recent kidnapping! Or the other kidnapping, or the whole arm-breaking scandal. He calls out to Jun.]
Jun-kun, look! There are cookies! These seem like they'll go perfectly well with tea, so let's brew some~ ♪
[And then later he'll track down Kirma. Not in-person. Just before bed. It takes some effort (didn't his username used to be "User" with a bunch of numbers after it??) but eventually he manages.]
