[ oh, it landed. just not particularly smooth?

she TURNS AWAY and all but hides her red face behind her mug of cocoa. you won't get her with your wibblings, yato. ]

[Crashed and burned like he does, huh?

Realizing his attempts at being pathetic are failing, he gradually ceases his antics to simply stare at her back.]

Hiyori... I'm sorry. [For what, he's not sure, but he still is.]

[ right after the apology is said, hiyori is got. giving in. she turns back around, still pretty damn red.

how does she even

explain

she can't, can she? absolutely not. glancing at the counter and the bag of marshmallows there, she gets an idea. her mug is exchanged for it, set on the surface, and she unfolds the top so she can pluck out a marshmallow.

mother would kill her for doing this. it's soooo unladylike, but... you know?

she throws it at him. it bounces off his forehead harmlessly and she has to bite the inside of her cheek to keep from smiling or laughing at the absurdity of it.

what now. ]

[He's still utterly baffled by this whole thing, but he's willing to admit that sometimes he does stupid shit stuff that's deserving of scorn, so perhaps this just happens to be one of those times too?

It doesn't explain the blushing, but maybe she took it to mean that she smelled? Girls can be sensitive about those things, can't they...

He watches her to try and look for the right cue to take, watches the marshmallow come out, watches as it sails through the air to

ping

bounce squarely off his head, much to his extreme shock. Him. God of Calamity, of War, of Fortune. Got beaned in the noggin by a marshmallow.

It takes several long seconds for it to fully register, but when it does, he slowly reaches down to pick up the marshmallow aaaaand promptly chucks it back at her, nailing her directly in the forehead as well.

Two can play at this game!]

[ yes and no. to all of that. just everything.

yato's stunned look at having a marshmallow nailing him dead between the eyes nearly makes her keel over, but she fights harder than ever not to smile. if she did, she wouldn't have been able to watch him pick up that floor marshmallow. as if reading his mind (and rolling a 13 on the dexterity check) she moves out of the way at the last second of him firing back. the tiny treat misses her by INCHES and lands somewhere behind her, rolling on the ground. for a long second, she stares at him

and then chucks another marshmallow at his chest before she takes off running out of the kitchen to get away from some other retaliating move he might make. ]

[Oh ho, so that's how it is, is it? So it's all out war now, is it?? Well, remember who your opponent is, Little Miss Brazen!

Ready this time, he catches the second marshmallow with one hand, setting down his cocoa with the other so he can hastily make his way over to scoop up the first wayward treat before chasing after her, rolling up his sleeves as he goes.]

Oh, Hiyoriiiii~ Where are youuuu....

[It's like a camp (very camp) horror film, where the weapons are puffy sugar pillows and the killer is-- well, okay, so he fits the bill. But otherwise it's a perfectly innocent game of marshmallow tag with him stalking her around their cozy treehouse.]

[ the great mallow war of reverein. it may be a horror film to him, but it's an action-thriller to hiyori.

also, not telling!!

no, she's hiding behind her desk so as soon as he walks through the door into the sanctity of her bedroom.

pmf.

yes!

a marshmallow hits the side of his head and two pink eyes and some of her visible grin peeks over the edge at him, ready to duck for cover. ]

[The horror might be that she keeps scoring on him!

The marshmallow beans him clear on the side of his head, earning a reflexive ouch as he slaps a hand to the spot it hit. Picking it up to arm himself further, he stalks towards her desk, getting closer... and closer...

Until--

--he hauls back and hurls the ammo at her forehead!]

[ THERE'S NO WAY IT HURT HE IS SO DRAMATIC

anyway.

BLOCKED!!! hiyori holds up her journal to deflect the fluffy puff missiles and protect her face while laughing behind it. ]

[THIS IS SO UNFAIR, HE CAN'T GET A SINGLE POINT IN]

C'mon, Hiyoriiii! That's cheating!

[It's totally not, but hey. All's fair in love and war.]

[ he gives up too QUICKLY. c'mon, yato.

she's peeking around the edge of her journal, managing her laughter enough to speak, ]

How is it cheating?

[Au contraire!

Once she sticks her head out to steal a peek, he's chucking another marshmallow at her without another word, aiming to get in a sneak attack!]

[ so hiyori rolls a nat 1 lmao on the dex save and in her scramble to block the incoming projectile, the marshmallow not only hits her --

-- but she smacks herself in the face with the journal ]

Ow!

[ and also!! loses her balance in the process, flopping onto her back.

so uh he wins??? ]

[As soon as the marshmallow pomps her in the face Yato lets out a cheer of success...!

...and promptly claps his hands over his mouth to suppress a snort at how she hits herself, even as his brow furrow in concern, especially once she tips over.

He can't help it, he cracks up at that point.]

Y-You okay, Hiyori?

[ her response to that is another marshmallow flying in his direction. she misses her target, though. it hits his knee as she sits up.

it doesn't look like she's too upset about her clumsy failure as she sits back up and puts her journal aside. especially not as she smiles and rubs her reddened nose with the back of her hand. ]

I'm okay. [ there. finally, he looks much more happy. ]

Is my nose red or bruised or anything?

[ red, for sure. ]

[He at least makes a valiant effort to try catching the projectile in his mouth, but misses by a wide margin.

And as long as she's okay and not injured, he can keep smiling, then. In fact he snickers a bit at how red her nose has gotten, a little like--]

You look like Rudolph, hehe!

[He can't help picturing her with antlers and the ears to go with them. And maybe a little tail~]

[ pfft, nice try. in their battle, there are a few marshmallows scattered about for him to eat. waste not, want not.

instantly, she's putting her hand over her nose. ]

W-well, 'tis the season, I guess.

[ SOON. ]

[He's totally going to eat them, three-second rule or not. Not like he'll get anything worse than a stomach ache out of it.

That gets him snickering as he leans back on his hands.]

Does that mean you'll be the reindeer to my Santa?

[He doesn't quite realize how that might come across.]

[ their house is clean. yato is good at a lot of the OTHER chores around the house, but she can clean!! real good!!

what does

that mean

YATO??? ]

Huh?

[ innocent hiyori........ ]

[See? They make a great team!

Which is why his next idea makes perfect sense:]

What if I were to take on Santa's role while he's not here and deliver presents to people? We could give everybody some of my amulets and charms to spread Yatoism to all of Reverein!

[He's beaming.]

Ah, um--

[ not a BAD idea, per se?? she doesn't want to ruin that smile.

yatoism. ]

You are a Delivery God... [ SO IT MAKES SENSE. her hand falls away from her nose. ]

But it's important to give people the presents they might've wished for if you're going to be Santa, too. Not just amulets and charms. But... [ she smiles. what's the harm? it's the spirit of giving. ] I like it! I think it could be fun to put Capyper Inari in stockings or just share them as small gifts. Like stocking stuffers! They're pretty cute.

There's a lot to make if we want to make sure everyone gets one!

Yeah, I know. [He wilts a bit.] If I had a shrine, then there'd be a place for people to leave plaques with their Christmas wishes on them so I'd know what they want...

[Both hands go up at her approval, though.] Yeaaaah! That's a great idea! We can do up little stockings for everyone! They'll love your Capyper Inari! I know I do!

I'll make sure we have enough supplies to cover everybody, so all you have to do is work your creative magic! I wonder if there's a loom somewhere...

[ yato may wilt, but a softer smile tugs her lips.

how very 'god of happiness/fortune' of him to say. she moves to sit on her ankles, bunching her fists in her lap. ] All the more reason to build one, right?

[ hehe, she's glad yato likes the inari so much. yeah!! they'll do little stockings to put the inar--

WAIT STOCKINGS TOO?! this all... seems like a loooot of work...

which is even better that yato wants to do it, isn't it? okay. that settles it. she won't complain. ]

Somewhere, maybe? That's something else to look for when we're scoping out a place to put your shrine. Then, we're looking for that, I need to get clay and paint, and then we also need to look for a loom too, today. Does that all sound about right?

[Sitting cross-legged, he rests his hands on his feet with a nod.] Exactly! I need one in order to reach people and so they can easily reach me.

[Believe it or not, the inari are one of his most treasured possessions, along with his shrine, which he misses dearly. He even finds himself reaching for it at night only for it to not be there.

For the stockings he plans on making them himself, although if push comes to shove, perhaps he can get store-bought ones if they end up pressed for time.]

Sounds good to me! Sourcing the craft supplies should be easy enough, so I'll leave that to you while I scope out a loom and we can both look for some potential shrine sites.

I wonder what size we should look for? Like one just big enough to receive offerings, or should I dream bigger and aim for a proper room-sized one? What do you think?

[ maybe, someday soon, he'll wake up to another tiny shrine and another couple of inari on either side of it. just a little more polished than her first attempt.

hiyori wavers. or it would be better to say the expression on her face wavers. ah, right. right. yeah, they could cover more ground if they split up and do their own thing. makes sense.

maybe someone will come to hang out with her while she shops around. ]

Yeah, leave the supplies to me. No problem. [ why did she think they were going to... ugh. ]

What do I-- um. I think... starting small is a good choice. There's no reason to take up more space than necessary. I've always liked the feeling of the smaller shrines, too. Visiting them felt more personal.

Dreaming big isn't bad, though! If you got a proper room-sized one would you live there instead?
