My father's in town for a few days on business and we went out for dinner tonight. I had a really lovely seafood spread with scallops that melted in the mouth. Yum. I think I ate enough to not need to eat anything all weekend, I'm so full.

He was inordinately curious about who I've been hanging out with in Tokyo, and was accusing me of being happier than normal. It's like that's a bad thing. Parents can be very unnecessarily nosey.

On slightly less concerning topics, I'm currently looking for a person to take my cute kouhai out on a date. He's probably the only nice person I know from back in the day and even if he had a stupid growth spurt in the past few years, he's still very cute.

Bonus points if you like bunnies and baked goods. And freckles.

If you went to Tanishi's restaurant and his mother started just placing platters of rafute in front of you, would you be able to restrain yourself?

[Screened]

I never did get that date.

... I'm going to call him. Hang on.

I suppose not. I would already have gone to Tanishi-san’s with the intention of indulging, however.

[screened]

We went to Seoul for an entire week shopping and visiting interesting places. There was even kissing involved. Does that not count?

I suppose it is good at least one member of your family does not hate me? It still feels somewhat suspicious to be singled out now though...

I went out for dinner with my father with the intention of indulging. He always picks good restaurants.

[Screened]

... No it doesn't count as a date. That was a preplanned holiday, kissing included.

I'm sure my mother doesn't hate you. And my sister is so fond of you. And he's probably just going to threaten you, much like how you do to me with smoothies, it's fine.

Well, don't hold yourself back on my behalf I suppose. Unless it's some sort of cake buffet, in which case I'd like a brief vigil for my intentions to get you to eat proper food before you dig in.

[Screened]

What would an actual date imply then, with the apparent condition nothing about it is allowed to be preplanned?

I'm not sure whether that was a heads up or a warning on what family madness I am getting myself involved with...

Oh as if I'd ever eat at a buffet.

[Screened]

I'm not quite sure. What would you want to do on a date, Eishirou? Besides beat me up in a dojo?

You knew all about my family madness. Except the situation with all my second cousins. I think they're still bitter about how my grandfather split his money.

Fine, a fancy private taste-testing lunch at a cake store.

[screened]

...I have been to musea and dinner for dates. Also a zoo, once. I think it really depends on what you want to do for these kinds of things.

I did know your family madness, I'm just not sure whether your father's report on what all trouble is brewing where is meant to update me or scare me off.

I do eat proper food, Eishirou. I had a wonderful seafood feast for dinner the other night.

[Screened]

I don't really go on dates. Even back in junior high I didn't really, they cut too much into team time. I suppose I walked a girl home from school once back in elementary school. That was tiring, my driver had to follow behind us the entire time with Rei in the back so he could drive me home after.

Probably just update you, since he has a view probably quite similar to yours when it comes to my family.

I know. It was a hypothetical scenario that is actually likely to physically occur that I would theoretically die a little on the inside from.

[Screened]

We have dinner together all the time. Doesn't that count? It usually ends in kissing and occasionally more than that. That seems like the sort of content that a date would consist of.

That the family hitmen might very well be around the corner to slay him at the press of a button?

At most I'd eat like... 3 small cakes.

[Screened]

No, I feel like because those are almost routine and normal now, they don't. Maybe if we count Seoul as a date, we can go on another one next holidays.

Did he tell you we have family hitmen? Because I keep telling you we got rid of those in WW2.

Instead of dinner.

[Screened]

If you wanted to go on another trip with me you only needed to say so, you know. But I suppose if our usual routine doesn't suffice that works too.

He insinuated something that may or may have been about family hitmen. Your father is very well-versed in doublespeak.

Instead of lunch, maybe. Depends on what was planned for dinner.

[Screened]

Maybe over winter break. I'm not sure. We could escape somewhere warm.

... There are no family hitmen anymore. And is he? I've always found him a very openly straight forward man but I suppose he has to survive my grandmother somehow.

Your answers seem to be improving compared to a few months ago.

[screened]

Warm seems good. It's already cooling down. How anyone lives in a cold place like Tokyo will forever baffle me.

He very vaguely insinuated otherwise. Much like he vaguely insinuated he might drop by unannounced again without outright saying so.

Shut up, Eishirou.

[Screened]

I know, I might actually need to get my snuggie out again soon. It's not quite cold enough for the winter blankets on the bed though.

I have a feeling that's just him making a deal out of being in Tokyo more often because of work at the moment. So you can feel particularly smug Eishirou, since I'll probably go out eating with him more often now.

┐(￣ヘ￣)┌

[screened]

Why can't you at least just go for a fashionable bathrobe. Why does it have to be that stupid thing?

There is nothing wrong with more people looking after your health. What I'm more concerned about is why he's specifically singling me out now, when he's never done that before.

Are you.... sure you didn't tell him anything?

Ah, so you don't mind those sorts of emoji.

It was a present from my wonderful sister and I love it. It keeps me warm.

I'm quite sure I didn't tell him anything specific. I mean, I did drag you over to my house for dinner after we went to Seoul together. You spoke to a lot that night, are you sure you didn't say anything?

I don’t use them, usually. Regular emoji lack a shrug I identify with though.

[screened]

You’re ridiculous.

Why would I tell your father anything suspect? I don’t even tell my own father anything suspect.

😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘

Maybe I should get a whole collection of them all in different colours, just to really annoy you.

... I might call my mother, see if something's happening at home I don't know about.

That's still disturbing.

You know what, Hirakoba-kun? All things considered, with the change of situation compared to last winter, I think I actually prefer you naked. Isn't that novel?

That's such a concerning thing to hear.

Ah, but then you're stuck with me naked and tucked up under blankets, probably in bed to stay warm. Unless that's your intention.

Everything's normal at home. Who knows.

I’d have to be taking those ridiculous blankets off of you anyway, so I suppose that’s the only possible outcome.

Your family’s strange as ever.
