I’ll manage... I’m just glad it’s a party among friends and no one else. The less people I have to face, the better. [It might be 100% bias, but she’s still thankful for it.] Ahaha... thanks, I hope so.

[God, he’s right though. Crow could never learn the easy way. Maybe it was always destined to be like this. The lack of mecha is a definite improvement though.]

Me neither. So... at least until tomorrow morning, I want to stay with you.

Mm, you'd have to be pretty bold to actually invite people to come, so I imagine it'll be a small group. [At least, he prays for that for everyone's sake]

[He moves closer, moving to wrap an arm around the small of Towa's back]

Then in that case, I'm all yours until tomorrow morning.

That’s what I’m praying for at least.

[Besides Crow and maybe Fie, she doesn’t think any of the others would subject their friends to this kind of party.

As his arm wraps around her, Towa relaxes a bit, leaning against him.]

You’re too good to me.

[Not an actual complaint, even if she does feel a bit spoiled.]

Nah, I'm not. If anything, I'm sure I could spoil you more.

[Not that he has any ideas in mind. But still, Towa deserves the world.]

I’d be lying if I said there wasn’t anything I’d like to ask for.

[The fact that she can admit that shows how far she’s come.]

Buuut right now, just having you here with me is more than enough.

[She's come so far, Elliot is proud of her]

Well, good thing I can be here then.

[He's not going anywhere]

Still, you didn't even try to argue that you deserve nice things. You've come pretty far, Towa!

[Sorry of course he's going to call it out]

[Towa pouts, her face an obvious shade of pink.]

Ooohhh... I-it’s not like I don’t know that, I just...

[But she gives up trying midway and sighs.]

Maybe it is a little selfish. But I’m not giving it up for the world. So there.

[He gives an affectionate little laugh at that, leaning over to plant a kiss on top of her head. She's endearing okay? Super endearing]

I'd never ask you to give it up. I like when you're a little selfish with me.

[It does make her happy that he doesn’t mind— but this isn’t about her or that right now. And she can’t help but get a little embarrassed when the focus is put on her.]

Y-you can go back to what you were doing. I don’t mind you know— I’ll try not to distract you too much.

[Sorry Towa he's a craig. They're embarrassing]

Oh, that's okay ... music's not really talking to me tonight, so I was just tuning instruments to keep myself busy.

Ah. I guess it's my job to keep you busy then.

[Not that she minds. She wouldn't mind spoiling him a little too. Towa opens the ice cream and digs out a small spoonful, holding it up to Elliot's mouth.]

Open up.

[Yes. She's feeding it to you. You're not the only one who can be embarrassing here.]

[!]

A-Are you feeding me?

[He'll hold his mouth open, but half out of surprise because what is this]

[It might just be the surprise, but she'll take it, dipping the spoon into his mouth with a big smile.]

Mm-hmm. It's not the first time I've wanted to either.

[But he'd given in and eaten willingly during the storm, even if he hadn't wanted to, so she spared him.]

It's not?

[He says with a spoon his mouth. He'll be good though, and eat the ice cream, making an "mm" sound. It's good!]

If you wouldn't have agreed to eat something during the snowstorm, I probably would have made you anyway.

[She's glad to see he's getting a bit better in that regard anyway.]

Only because I was worried about you though. This time it just seemed like the right thing to do.

Ohh...then. [He laughs a little] Well, sorry for being compliant? I didn't realize I stepped on a moment there.

[But hey, he's willing to indulge her.]

So...how about another bite?

No, no... I was just glad you enjoyed it.

[Besides. Belatedly, it's nicer to enjoy when it's just the two of them.]

Heehee... gladly!

[Towa happily scoops up another bite for him, gently feeding it to him.]

[This would be a lot more embarrassing if the others were watching, it's true. But since they're alone, Elliot will happily go along and take another spoonful that's offered to him. It's good ice cream and it makes Towa happy, so it's a win-win]

Thanks. That's good ice cream.

Did you want any?

Right? I don’t normally eat a lot of ice cream in the winter but it just felt right.

[There’s still a decent amount left, too-]

I could probably eat a little more...

[She can feel guilty about it later. Right now it’s a comfort food.]

That's understandable. It is one of the best comfort foods there is.

[He holds his hand out with a smile]

In that case, the spoon?

[GIMME]

Ah-- so that's what you were thinking.

[She turns over the spoon without a fuss, though. Since it's just them, it's fine. He seemed to want a chance to spoil her a little more anyway.]

Hehe, yep. Seems only fair.

[He'll take the spoon and get a spoonful of ice cream for her, making sure it's one of the good bits with flavoring.]

Open up!

[And into her mouth it goes!]

[Towa plays along, opening her mouth.]

Aaah—mmm.

[She makes a happy face as the ice cream melts in her mouth.]

Delicious~
