[As soon as he sees the text, he rolls out of bed and starts getting dressed. He's just tugging his shirt on when Parker comes in.]

Hey, Happy Birthday Par--!

[...

Wow, she really liked the chocolate. He can't help but grin about that.]

That explains your awesome typing skills this morning!

[nostabbing]

Yeah!

[She is inordinately perky right now, Hagakure, hello.]

Oh. My. God it was so good! Sooooo much chocolate. And money! Great-smelling money, stacks and stacks and with chocolate on top of it which doesn't really hurt the money, you know, unless you get the chocolate on it so you can't really store it somewhere if it's warm but you really shouldn't do that with money anyway because it keeps better when it's cool and I guess the optimal temperature would be probably somewhere around fifty degrees? But chocolate melts between thirty and thirty-two degrees Celsius which is like eighty-six to ninety degrees Fahrenheit and that's why it melts in your hand if you hold it too long!

...I like your shirt.

[ c: ]

[crystalballer]

[...Honestly, it's moments like this where Hagakure thinks, "this is exactly why I like you, Parker-chi."

Outwardly he looks totally taken by surprise, but his interest is held through that entire outburst by the way his eyebrows are raised and how he keeps nodding as she goes.

At the end of it all, he looks down at his shirt with a smile.]

Hey, thanks!

[He smooths it out a little as he looks back at Parker.]

I'm really, really glad you liked your presents.

[nostabbing]

They're the best presents. Money and chocolate! I didn't even ask for chocolate how did you know?

[Don't mind her just kind of...bouncing...rapidly at vibrating speeds.]

You should help me eat the chocolate, too, there's so much chocolate.

[crystalballer]

I just thought it'd be funny to bury the real money in fake money, really. 'sides, you can't go wrong with chocolate!

[Basically he unintentionally nailed it.]

You sure you don't want it all?

[He's not really going to turn it down, but he did buy it all for her...]

[nostabbing]

[...That's a very good question, actually. :|a

She really would like to eat it all, but oddly enough she also kind of wants to share, too, if it's sharing with Hagakure.

...also let's be real it's probably for the best if she doesn't consume any more for the next like week or so, but she's not thinking about that right now, obviously.]

I think...sharing would be fun.

[As she zips in to grace his cheek with a chocolatey kiss.]

1/2

[crystalballer]

[This is supposed to be Parker's day, but she's doing a hella good job at making Hagakure's day at the same time.

He gasps, immediately turning pretty red over that kiss. It was on his cheek, sure, but man, it really shows how close they've gotten. At least, that's how he sees it.]

[crystalballer]

[He reaches up to where she kissed him, his fingers bringing a bit of chocolate back with them. After letting it all sink in, he smiles brightly at her.]

Heh, it'll be a Breakfast of Champions: Parker-chi's Birthday Edition.

[nostabbing]

[In all honesty, it hasn't really occurred to her for that to be weird — both at home and in Johto, kissing people is somewhat removed from the emotional connection that tends to accompany that sort of thing for most people — but really that's okay, because Hagakure is smiling and that does mean something, and frankly she'd probably be a little more bashful about it herself if it weren't for the hundred thousand pounds of sugar coursing through her veins at the moment.]

Oh, man, we should have cereal too! Cereal and chocolate and you know what else is great for breakfast? Fortune cookies! We should go get some of those, do you want to go get some of those?

[crystalballer]

Huh, I never would've considered fortune cookies for breakfast. Are they really that good in the morning?

[Or in general. Sometimes it's weird getting fortunes from other people when he's the SHSL Fortune Teller.]

I'm down either way! D'you have a favorite cereal?

[nostabbing]

The ones with the little marshmallow bits!

[Yesssssss.]

I dunno, you know how sometimes when you eat breakfast you just eat what's there because that's what's there for breakfast? Sometimes fortune cookies are like that!

[crystalballer]

Ohhh, I gotcha. For me that's usually chips or something. Sometimes I forget to close the bag so it's half-stale chips but hey, it works.

[...cool story Hagakure.]

Anyway! So we can go buy some fortune cookies and marshmellow cereal then? I wonder if they taste good together...
