[She's three minutes early! Maybe she doesn't hear his scramble to quickly shove his laundry in his chest and slam the top down before swinging the door open.]
Hi! Fancy seeing you here.
[Fortunately, the mess isn't dire. He got everything up off the floor before she got there. One of the cleaning droids has been dispatched to clear away the dog hair.]
I'm just trying to reorganize. There's not a lot of room, but it feels like a whole lot of room now that it's just me again.
Hm, that does require some thought. Do you use your desk for anything else?
[She meets him halfway, taking his hand and guiding it so he's holding her around the waist. They're alone, so being a little bold can't hurt.]
But before I forget, there was a reason I called you. [Kaname slips her arms over his shoulders in a lazy half hug, still keeping a little distance.] I want to know when your birthday is.
[The task of figuring out his photographic supplies fall out of focus (ha) when he tells her what she was here to find out. With Freyja's birthday so close and happening on the cannibal planet, it doesn't take her long at all to realize his was the same.
Her own eyes widen at the thought.]
That horrible place... [Kaname now closes the remaining distance as she hugs him tightly, her chin resting on his shoulder.]
Hm? ...Oh. [Right. That place. He hadn't thought much about it at the time. Too much else going on. It wasn't important. He sighs, winding his arms around her.]
It's fine. I'm not really big on celebrating anyway.
[Kaname shifts an arm so she can move and rest her forehead in the crook of his neck. She murmurs something, but it's lost against him. Instead, she falls silent until a question occurs to her.]
Would you let me do something with you to celebrate next time? If we're both still around then. I definitely think it's an occasion worth commemorating.
[Her fingers idly play with the hair at the back of his neck.]
Good. [And it is. Even with the go ahead, hearing him say it sounds great gives her a feeling of relief.]
What do you think we should do about that? [That smile's definitely contagious, though hers isn't exactly shy. It's more comfortable than anything else.
She leans forward and kisses him once more, lingering a little longer than her greeting. When she pulls back, there's a bit of bashfulness to her expression.]

Give me about ten minutes.
[And she shuts off the feed only to show up like seven minutes later with a knock on his door.]

[Kaname slides by him into the room and steps forward to give him a quick kiss on the lips once the door's closed.]
Tell me what I can do to help.
action;
I think the most important thing is where to put all the photo stuff. It almost needs a room of its own.

The change in position is nice. Though he tips his head, eyes narrowing a bit.]
Uh, not for a while. October. Twenty-fifth.

You deserve better than that.

[Her fingers idly play with the hair at the back of his neck.]
action;
Just you and me? Nothing big or fancy? That'd be okay.
action;
[It makes her happy that she got the okay, especially just for them. Kaname lifts her head, smiling at him.]
Believe it or not, I might have a crush on you, so it might end up being somewhat romantic. Are you up for that?
[She looks at him expectantly. Whatever will he say?]
action;
[It's on the tip of his tongue to remind her she really doesn't have to. But he knows how these conversations go by now.
He snorts.]
I think I can handle it. I might have a crush on you, too.
[His smile is shy, but he doesn't look away like he's prone to do.]
action;
What do you think we should do about that? [That smile's definitely contagious, though hers isn't exactly shy. It's more comfortable than anything else.

That's my idea.
action;
It's a good idea! I like that idea.
action;
[Kaname leans back, enjoying his hold on her.]
Care to explain it? I figure you have one.
action;
[Cleaning something? He doesn't care so much about that anymore.]
Let's just stick to yours.
action;
[Kaname is completely teasing him now, keeping her face just away enough from his, he has to initiate the next kiss if he wants it.]
