its a bit more complicated than that. kinda. sorta.
[ STALLING MEASURES... aka running to ryoko in a panic because she suddenly feels like she is holding a very delicate little heart in her hands that could shatter at any moment if she breathes wrong ]
do you like parfaits? that diner that's always open has really delicious ones and i want one
[ If anything, shouldn't she be the one treating him? He's offering to help with the knitting, the party... probably something else she's already forgotten. Taiga gets the feeling she doesn't have a say in this, though. ]
i'll be outside! my place is kinda messy rn...
[ The real truth is her place is always a bit of a mess, but she gives him the address and heads outside to wait. Between her oversized coat and mass of hair tied in some sort of a giant ponytail, she looks even smaller than she otherwise would. ]
[Yuuto appears in front of her house as quietly as snow- and yes, he literally appears. His teleportation leaves what looks like ripples of light in the air, but is otherwise silent.
He, on the other hand, is a bouncy and annoying person. One who smiles and waves upon arrival.]
[ She practically leaps out of her coat when Yuuto appears, stumbling back a step and settling into a defensive stance--before realising who she almost threw a punch at. ]
[ Perhaps everything leading up to this moment in her life was a mistake. She couldn't say it was a good run, but it sure was a run nonetheless. Taiga Aisaka had, in fact, lived a life. And this is it, this is where her soul shatters and she takes this entire world down with her; not from despair, but the crushing weight of embarrassment.
A high five. ]
Yes, you startled me! Do you want to have a broken jaw?!
[Yuuto takes a second to reassess the situation: The high five, her being startled, the threat to have almost tried to break his jaw… and he takes it all quite well. His sister has a violent reflex too and it didn’t come from no where. He assumes Taiga is the same.
So he dials his energy down. Kinda.]
It’s okay! You’d have a hard time hitting me~ I’m decent in a fight! [This clearly solves everything.]
I’m sorry. I’ll be more careful in the future… I’ll warn you next time! [He holds up his pinky finger,] I promise?
[ Taiga is still utterly dumbfounded at this energetic, bumbling puppy's existence. There's no choice but to reach out and hook her own pinky around his, completing the sacred pact of a pinkie promise. ]
N-no, it's fine... I should've expected something like that. Plus, I'd never hear the end of it if I actually punched you. No harm done.
