[There he is, on the couch, a miserable pile of fish man. Dandy hates this weird "stuck" feeling he's had lately. It has everything to do with not being able to fulfill any sort of revenge plot he's come up with, it's like no one will let him be spontaneous anymore!!

He just wants to punch a god, is that too much to ask?

There's a small "oof" as a package is shoved his way, and Dandy's so lost in thought that he almost seems confused by the very idea.]

Valentine's...Day...?

[Like he's just hearing about this for the first time. ...Or more like he's been so caught up on Rosch's death, he'd forgotten the date. Thankfully his brain isn't too broken to keep him from opening it up anyway.]

[missleadingquestions]

So, what do you think?

[Maya asks, rocking back and forth on her heels, grinning to hide any worry. He really wasn't thinking about it, was he? If anything's an indication of his mood, it's Dandy forgetting about a day he could make be about paying attention to him.

In the layers of red and white tissue paper is another red-paper box filled not with chocolates but little blue ramune scallop shells and seated among them as if they were waves are two cookies in the shape of a dolphin and an orca, an approximation of what Mari had done for the both of them before.]

You can go ahead and tell me what a great idea this was whenever you’re ready.

[Past a sharp-toothed grin.]

[adandyinspace]

[And just like that, the act is over and Dandy throws a leg over to lift his entire body back up so that he's now sitting and looking into the thoughtfully set up box like she just handed him GOLD.]

What the hell-- When'd you learn how to do this?!

[One of those shells is immediately put in his hair.]

This is-- And you-- The cookies-- I didn't even SEE you use an oven!!

[missleadingquestions]

A girl's gotta have some secrets~

[She chirps coyly, happy as a clam.]

I might have gotten some help. But that's all you get to know!

[Hands on her hips, Maya's practically spilling over with pride. She's not so bad at this kind of thing! And his reaction so far is pleasing enough-- at least he isn't sulking for now.]

I've gotta keep a sense of mystery. You're welcome~!

[adandyinspace]

[He's taking out one of the cookies at this point, admiring the detail, trying not to think who this help was. A part of him doesn't even want to eat them, they're too cute. Too...thoughtful...]

Dammit...

[That's...probably a thank you in Dandy's own weird way. But no, here he is, so buried in his grief that he couldn't see such a thoughtful gift coming his way. He'd say he rarely gets gifts, but that just isn't true anymore, not since showing up in Ryslig. There were little things like that scarf, a freakin' barn, now this. Why does he still feel like he doesn't deserve this junk? And these aren't even just cookies, they're...]

This is gonna make my thing look like crap.

[missleadingquestions]

--Your thing?

[Asks Maya, bright eyed and curious, like she didn't expect him to get her anything.]

What is it? Come on, show me anyway!

[She's certainly not going to turn down a gift, thoughtful or not-- how many of those does she get, anyway? It's nice enough that Dandy likes stuff like this in the first place. It's pretty obvious by the grin on her face that Maya.... really doesn't mind, but gosh does she want to know what he got her.]
