この気持ち…伝わってるといいんすけどね (12/31)

Who: Hajime Hinata & friends
What: Happy birthday, Hinata-kun!
When: December 31, 9PM~
Where: School roof
Warnings: N/A, TBE

( there's various hidden signs that point towards the elevator, and if anyone catches sight, they'll see an arrow that points up, indicating for them to take it skyward. if they get off too early, there's a sign on the floor that reads, "next stop!", so if they dare, they can go back into the elevator and do as the words command. upon making your way to the rooftop on new year's eve, the setup is immediately apparent.

a number of glittering, sparkling decorations line the area — streamers, balloons, music, and a brightly colored sign the reads: happy birthday hinachan. at the heart of the setup is a bonfire that reaches almost shoulder-height — properly set up to make sure it doesn't spread anywhere further than its containment area, it sets a festive tone.

"borrowed" desks are also covered in an array of treats and appetizers courtesy of nene and amami, as well as enough love setsugetsukka to "make 3 people black out," which is probably enough to share if nobody gets too ambitious. the cake at the center of it all is the real star of the show however, almost as big as a person all on it's own.

to top it all off, even under the dim glow of the stars, nobody is short of a little light when natsume and noah's dazzling light show begins. once the main event has closed, a variety of firecrackers are brought out to celebrate with as things begin to wind down. varieties include the classic sparklers, these little spinny bitches, funky little sparkshowers, some little baby rockets, with the larger varieties spanning a couple feet at most. on the opposite side, there's a little table where a birdhouse is kept, and inside stuffed with all sorts of cotton and wood shavings are two birds huddled together inside, and a few treats that people can feed them if interest. if keigo looks at your character from afar, it's fine, that birdhouse they're living in was made by them, after all.

and at the centre of it all will be one boy with a bag over his head, kidnapped by rokuro arata, who sits him down and lets komaeda undo his blindfold — happy birthday, hinata-kun! )

[subaru eases a little, guarded slipping as it pushes further away from a topic he hadn't brought up himself, and he'll gather some snow to make a little bunny. things that are important... he remembers chiaki's words on christmas, lip twitching fondly at the memory, and hands the little thing over to komaeda.]

I miss my mom. I miss my dog, and my friends back home. I miss being an idol, I miss going to Yumenosaki. [...] I miss going to Dad's grave and talking to him, too. That's only a small part of the list, but I don't regret everything and everyone that's become important to me here.

[which he won't list because komaeda'll pick it apart like he's judging subaru's grocery choices. also look. it's fine when he brings up his dad, but not when other people do; it's an instant reaction, the other can gather, but that has its own uses.]

I wanna keep shining for them, so I will. I don't plan on burning out either, before you say anything~. There's people here who'll stop me before it gets that bad, probably~.

[... like natsume, who's always watching him.]

[... he thinks maybe he can count that as a show of affection from komaeda, but he isn't entirely sure; the gesture is surprising, though the words are the same as he's before if a little kinder, in a way. not seeking to pick him apart, anyway, and subaru wonders if he should follow. yes? no?

... yes, no?]


Would you be one of those people, Maddy?

[there's the immediate, natural puffy cheeks at komaeda's statement, of course he's a people just a weird people--

...

subaru glances away, a little struck by the follow-up words. so they hadn't been mistaken signs, or a narrative he pushed onto the other: komaeda really was expecting something from him, encouraging and treating him nicer. never as nice as his "ultimates", but subaru prefers it that way; it's suffocating, from first hand experience, and something he shys away from.

... or maybe he's just hoping that's the case, that his months of effort haven't been for naught.]


I'm not aiming on disappointing anyone, Maddy~. So you don't gotta worry your head on that front, just keep your eyes on me and watch me shine. ♪

[but he'll stand up, looking at the clocktower curiously. subaru'll tag along if he's allowed, but he's curious.]

Are you heading up there? Why?
