[ That's a little boastful, but it's true. Ayano's right that he could've fought it... but. She hasn't realized yet that he's a total doormat, he's pretty sure. Tsukasa smiles slightly, successfully resisting the urge to kiss her temple or something equally incriminating of his feelings; his face still reddens at the thought, at her words, but he keeps his lips to himself. ]

And... yeah, um, of course it is. I really don't have anyone else to visit... [ Granted, it might be good to check in on a few other people, but he's sure they're busy visiting their own loved ones. He had two very important people left behind in the city though, so he's absolutely decided they get his day today. ] I'll see my family when I go home later after all.

[ unless him and hinata end up having a sleepover but that's not really the point, he still has to go there for supplies ]

Whatever you want, Anya. I'll grant any wish of yours right now—just say the word.
