oh, that's it? yeah, sure, i'll meet you there a little later

[That's a relief. He'd honestly been concerned that Komaeda had done something again, or maybe something even worse had happened... But it's just Hajime? Easy.

A few minutes later, he knocks on the door of the gaming room and offers her a quick flash of a smile, even as he glances to see which game she's playing this time.]

You got lucky, getting Ichinose. I don't think it's possible to give her a bad present.

[classicmode]

You think so?

[ There's a hint of curiosity in her tone of voice as she continues to play... ironically, Tetris. She seems to be clearing the levels pretty quickly, though. ]

Who did you get, Hinata-kun? You didn't get me, did you?

[hopefragment]

[Tetris... a muscle in his jaw tightens, but he doesn't comment, carefully hides any sign of disgust or discomfort at her choice of game. She'd have no way of knowing, after all, and there's no reason to bring it up.]

Huh? Oh, no, I got Kurosawa Dia... I met her once before, but I think she's friends with Ichinose, so that'll make it easier to get her something nice.

[He drops down to the floor, opting to watch Nanami's fingers on the controls rather than the actual Tetris blocks falling. Even as he talks about Hajime, he can't help the soft smile that starts to curve the corners of his lips.]

But for Ichinose herself... she likes stationary and scissors and notebooks. She's really into arts and crafts and... stuff that's cute, I guess.

[classicmode]

Arts and crafts?

[ Of course, her fingers that are wrapped around the joystick seem to be moving rather quickly, especially as the blocks seem to fall faster. She can't help but nod as she finally clears the level and takes a breath. She's done for now, especially since she can get back to it later and there's much more important things that need to be done. ]

Do you think I can implement game designs with that, Hinata-kun?

[hopefragment]

Yeah. I've given her notebooks as presents before, and she always liked those. Stuffed animals, too.

[Though... it's not like there's anywhere to buy plushies? Implying he either scavenged it from another ship, or made it himself. It's the latter.]

But sure, I don't see why you couldn't do stuff with game designs. Maybe you could make something for her like... a board game, or maybe a strategy guide for your favorite game and play it with her?

[classicmode]

I've never made a board game before... but if I wanted to do that, I'd probably be making it for everyone so we can all share and play it.

[ She can't help but laugh, but at least she's being honest? ]
