[ Noiz will find in front of the door to his room a neatly wrapped gift and a card with a large bird on it. Inside is written: ]

I'm told this is the mascot for 'Thanksgiving' - It's supposed to be a turkey, but it kind of looks like a weird pigeon-peacock-chicken hybrid and doesn't look at all appetizing, but I've had turkey sandwiches before and I didn't hate them!

Anyway, I heard 'Thanksgiving' is a day to open your heart and feel gratitude to what you have and those who are in your life.

Thank you, Noiz, for being in mine.

Love, Aoba


[ Inside the gift box is a picture book of a few candid shots of Noiz - him at the petting zoo's rabbit exhibit, working on his VR program, his Allmate attempting to wear Noiz' hat, and another shot of it wearing a tiny version of the hat that Aoba has stitched together out of felt fabric. There are a few selfies together as well. There are many other blank pages and a slip of paper reading: ]

Let's fill out the rest together, okay? xoxo - Aoba

[ Aoba's looking especially proud of himself, having repaired a kotatsu that had been discarded at the festival, restoring it into working order. All it had needed was a few replacement parts and it was good as new. Add a fluffy, soft blanket to catch the warmth and it would be a perfect way to stay cozy as the temperatures outside cooled.

He dusts off his hands and is admiring what will be his new favorite place to game and read for the coming months when Noiz enters the room. He turns, a smile spreading over his face as he recognizes the gift. ]


You like it?

[ The pink shade dusting his cheeks betrays his pleasure at the prospect and also a little self consciousness, he nevertheless dips his head down and comes closer, tugging at the front of his shirt. ]

I'm a little dusty from working on this... do I look okay?

[ Aoba makes a wavering complaint in his throat at the compliment. It's embarrassing, saying that sort of thing so bluntly... but it's not like he hates it. Quite the opposite, really, and Aoba tips his chin down as he smiles in spite of his earlier protest. ]

Now you do. [ Ah, he really likes it. Aoba presses his fingers against the fabric he was tugging at on his shirt and feels his heart beating. It's stupid how something so minor like this can excite him.

And then Noiz says something weird. ]


Heeh? Only the most important piece of furniture a home could have for half the year!

Come on, I'll show you... [ He takes him by the wrist and tugs him along, pointing to one cushion on the floor. Grumbling all the while: ] You broke into my home like it was no big deal and you've never seen something like this? Honestly...

You really are clueless...

[ Aoba glances back only when he feels his hand being directed around Noiz' waist and it makes him trail off a little, his gentle scolding losing whatever heat it might have had.

Oh. That's right.

This is the thing he's started to do. Holding him, pulling him close at random times. It's... enough that Aoba doesn't bother taking a seat on the other side of the table where he envisioned himself sharing the space with Noiz, and instead just... kneels down and pulls Noiz down with him. Noiz has become so much more physical, but in a different way. It's like he's spoiling him. ]


Sit like this. [ Aoba uses his other hand to retrieve the photo book from under his arm and places it on the table. This means they're squeezed in on the same side, embarrassingly close. But Aoba endures it, lifts the blanket to show him what's beneath. An orange glow spills out. ] ...You keep your lower half warm while sitting under it.

[ Aoba feels a little cramped, a little awkward, but the more Noiz takes this in that calm and distant way he does for anything unobjectionable, and yet stays in the present with those gestures - unremarkable maybe to anyone else, but for someone who was so neglected in his youth that he grew up feeling very much like he was on an alien planet, it's nothing short of a miracle. Something like this would have probably earned him a hostile response and maybe a demand to know why he'd participate in this kind of pointless exercise.

All this, and without having used Scrap. ]


Yeah! [ Noiz gets it! Aoba smiles warmly and nods. ] Granny had one too, and around this time of year...you could always see a small bowl of tangerines for snacking on, or a piping hot cup of tea.

[ Ah, how nostalgic...and now he can make new memories with Noiz with this. Opening yet another act of that domestic fantasy of his...

Aoba realizes he's spacing out, daydreaming about foolish things like playing an innocent form of footsy under the kotatsu with warm socks and Noiz not even realizing it, or catching him knocked out beneath it because who doesn't love a nap under one of those?! A-anyway! He gives his head a little shake, his cheeks feeling about as hot as the heat lamp under the table. ]


W-which means... you should really spend some time under it, so you don't catch a cold. [ And surely not for any other reason ever. ]

it's either tangerines or clementines I FORGET it's been ages

Mm, especially after I get some better cushions.

[ Aoba makes a derisive sound - are you kidding me - but it's so amused that it loses any seriousness. Really, Noiz, all that pasta and pizza... never once did he try some common fruit!

...He rests his elbow on the table too, but opposite to Noiz, so he can look into his face. ]


They're sweet. I think you'd really like them.

[ Aoba makes a mental note to buy some, but then he's also distracted with how nice this is. Cramped, but he doesn't mind it. And Noiz has been spoiling him lately with being so close. It's hardly the first time Aoba's realized he's handsome but... right now... ]

Can I take your picture?
