Lyney is a very nice host. He just knows far too many people.

[And Dan Heng rather shamelessly goes to lean against Josuke. He's tired, he's allowed.]

[onahairtrigger]

[He's allowed! Josuke does reach out to wrap an arm around Dan Heng's shoulders. It is rather cold out here after all-

(Also he just wanted to, but the cold makes a fantastic excuse.)]

You can say that again... I appreciated the invite, but this is definitely more people than I expected.

[moonsip]

I expected Caelus and Stelle to be...themselves, but I forgot how much more exhausting they are together.

[He presses closer.]

[onahairtrigger]

Listen, at this point, I'm just glad they both got distracted in different directions.

[moonsip]

Hopefully those directions won't converge.

[He sighs.]

I love them, but.

[onahairtrigger]

Stelle's currently being March's minder, at least. ... Or her wingman, I didn't catch much before I realized I didn't want to listen in on that conversation.

[Ah, sapphics.]

Yeah, I get you.

[moonsip]

Ah, yes. Miss Rika is here.

[Ah, sapphics.]

At least Caelus is mostly just interested in the food right now...

[onahairtrigger]

Pretty sure I saw Takahata over that way, so he'll probably be fine.

[moonsip]

Remind me to send Shio some tea, later.

[He sighs, resting his head on Josuke's shoulder.]

[onahairtrigger]

Heh, will do.

[For now, though, this is nice. He lifts his free hand to comb his fingers through Dan Heng's hair a bit.]

... Cold aside, it's nice out here tonight.

[moonsip]

Mm. The moon, especially.

[Sir.]

[onahairtrigger]

[Sir. Josuke just chuckles a bit, before reaching into his bag and pulling out a small package.]

Got something for you, by the way.

[moonsip]

[Dan Heng pulls back to look at Josuke, and then at the gift.]

You did? Funny, I got you something as well. Let me go get it?

[His bag is in the coat room.]

[onahairtrigger]

Yeah, alright.

[He'll let his arm drop so Dan Heng can go grab the gift.]

[moonsip]

[And off he goes. He comes back quickly enough, handing over a small wrapped package.

It's a book detailing various historical methods of clothing making and a gift card to Josuke's favorite fabric store.]

[onahairtrigger]

[And Josuke's gift to Dan Heng is... jewelry. Specifically, a moonstone pendant and an ear cuff that go well with a couple of the outfits Josuke's made for Dan Heng. There's also a gift card to a bookstore.

Josuke grins a bit at his gift and pulls Dan Heng close in a one-armed hug.]

I love it. Thank you.

[moonsip]

[He promptly puts the pendant and cuff on with a small smile.]

They're gorgeous, Josuke.

[onahairtrigger]

[His grin grows wider.]

Not as gorgeous as you, you know.

[moonsip]

Mmm, there you go again with the flattery.

[He leans up for a kiss.]

[onahairtrigger]

Nah, not flattery if it's the truth.

[He leans down to give that kiss!]

[moonsip]

Still flattery.

[Hmm, one more kiss.]

Thank you.

[onahairtrigger]

Of course.

[... Hm, one more kiss before he pulls Dan Heng even closer.]

[moonsip]

[Yeah, he's just going to stand here and let Josuke hold him.]

I love you.

[onahairtrigger]

I love you, too.
