[ She stares at him for a few more seconds in surprise, before putting back upthe happy board and taking his hand again. ]
Okay!
[ The store isn’t as big as the Gundam store but it’s still pretty big and WAY more spacious. Despite the open space though all the walls are lined with as much character merchandise that they can fit. T-shirts, mugs, bags, plushies, beauty products and more, and of so many different characters and animals. Mostly of the cat, but also dogs, bunnies… and an entire section dedicated to the egg.
At some point Rina let go of his hand and started looking closer at the plushies, looking intently at some rabbit characters. ]
Farrah-chan really liked plushies while we were stuck in the school didn’t she…
[The egg is weirdly fascinating, if he's honest. He guesses you could put a cute face on anything and it'd be appealing, though. Like, he's literally carrying around a keychain of a robot orb with a face, so that's not a glass house he can throw stones in.
Varian follows along with Rina until they make it to the plushies, chuckling when she brings that up.]
Oh yeah. I got to a point where I just gave her all of mine that Ruddiger didn't claim first.
[ She looks back at the Bonbonribbon plushie before nodding and holding it close to her, deciding to go with it. ]
Okay, I’ll get this and something smaller then. [ She and Varian have matching keychains now so it’s only fair she have matching ones with Farrah too. ]
I just worry a little sometimes… with you it’s easy to know what you’d like because we have the same interests, but I feel a little less certain with Farrah-chan, so I want to be extra sure she’ll like it.
But… if you really think she’d especially like something because it came from me then… I suppose I should worry less.
[ She just wants to be a good girlfriend. To both of them >_< ]
I think you know more about her than you realize. It's hard to think of things in the moment, but...so far, you haven't suggested anything I think she'd absolutely hate or anything. Which is kiiinda important.
[ At suddenly being pulled in closer and hearing that, Rina’s face starts to turn red and she quickly puts the board back up after lowering it a little to look at the keychains ]
[Sorry Rina, your boyfriend just cannot help but be absolutely insufferable. He'll only hold her near for a moment, just long enough for him to kiss the side of her head before he pulls away.]
Uh, yeah, that sounds like the only way to have them.
[He's looking over the selections on display as well. He's been here long enough to get a pretty decent scale of how much is too much or how much is cheap when it comes to yen, so when he sees that they're selling 20 individual ones in a box for 800 yen, he whistles under his breath.]
