day 414, text+audio

[abhero]

cause you said you never got to hear proper music

[Attached are dozens of audio files - classical pieces played by Hamel on his violin. Each track is, of course, labeled with the name of the piece and the composer. He thought about making it after Hibiki told him she's never been to a performance, and the mess ten days ago pushed him to actually go through with it. This was something nice he could do without feeling stupid or guilty. Music was better than words, it wouldn't hurt her feelings with a callous comment.

He plays for hours each day. All he had to do was to keep his bracelet on.]

1/???

[saving_sound]

[It takes her a bit to realize what it is, but the moment she does, she messages him back.]

Thank you so much Hamelsan!!!

Also I apologize

[saving_sound]

The first one is really pretty!!

[saving_sound]

[Later...]

The second one is beautiful too!

[saving_sound]

[And more later...]

I think the third one is my favorite

[saving_sound]

[...]

No i like the 5th one more.

Wait this is the 4th so i meant 4th.

[saving_sound]

[...]

Done

[saving_sound]

[And finally, after she's listened to each one...]

I definitely love all of them!! Thank you so much!!! Ive never listened to so much music before!!!!

[abhero]

[saving_sound]

That reminds me can i come visit you sometime

[abhero]

[saving_sound]

[abhero]

[saving_sound]

Then can i come by now

Where do you live

[abhero]

baldr welcome hall

[saving_sound]

Ok ill meet you at the front door then

[She has it all ready, so... All she needs to do is bundle up and slip it into her bag before she goes!]

[abhero]

ok say when you're outside

[Hamel doesn't wait for people.]

[saving_sound]

[And after a bit...]

Im here

[abhero]

[Well then! Time to put down the awful costume he was sewing and come on out.

And as he pleased as he is to see she's in good spirit he looks his usual indifferent self, hands knitted idly behind his head.]

What up?

[saving_sound]

[She looks a little nervous by the time he answers the door, but she tries to keep smiling brightly nonetheless.]

Umm... I got a present for you! So... I wanted to give it to you!

[She fishes around in her bag for just a moment before pulling out a carefully wrapped gift. Whatever it is, it appears to be in a box that is the general size of a folded handkerchief.

Not that such a detail has anything whatsoever to do with the contents, obviously.]

[abhero]

[Well! People don’t usually give him presents unless he blackmails him into it, so he’s definitely surprised. He weighs it in his hand for a moment before ripping the wrapping paper off and -

- a handkerchief. And not the one he gave her.

Seriously?]

That’s… uh. Interesting.

[He takes it out of the box.]

Thanks?

[Seriously??]

[saving_sound]

You didn't want the other one back, so...

[It was the best alternative she could think of.]

[abhero]

So you went looking for a loophole.

[Really, she's too nice...]

You should start writing contracts.

[And use that attention to details for evi - business.]

[saving_sound]

Huh-? Contracts...?

[abhero]

Yeah. You know, like if you're letting someone borrow money or rent your place or what have you. You think about things so hard, you can totally get them by surprise!

[And screw them over!]
