Ah! You did that too? [He smiles brightly, pleased to hear he hadn't been the only one with that idea.]
I tried to do it with some of Kiyomitsu's flowers, but I dropped them when they started sprouting from him again... [TRAGIC.] But we can make some really nice ones that people will want to save too!
[...Except that he totally stole some from Kashuu's stash for this too IT'S FINE THEY'RE DATING KASHUU'S THINGS ARE NOW HIS THINGS that's how it works right
BUT YES in they go. It takes concentration, but it's a repetitive enough task that it's easy to keep up conversation.] How have you been, An-chan? Did you make any holiday plans?
Ah, a party? That sounds like fun. [GOOD GOOD... and he's especially pleased to hear her mention Yato, since he knows just how much it means to him these days, being remembered.
As for his own plans, though--]
Mm, I'm not sure... normally dad comes home and I go visit him and mama on Christmas, but they don't use Retrospec, so...
[So the chances of something happening before Christmas to make them forget he exists (again) or something are disturbingly high?? Yasusada loves his parents dearly, which makes the past year all the more difficult.
He pauses, brow furrowing.] --Eh, are you supposed to do something if you're dating?
Anya blinks at that. True, her mother isn't on Retrospec either but that doesn't mean Anya loves her any less. Their rare days together are still important, but they talk about things that aren't about the world. The only major change is that since nothing tastes like anything anymore, it's harder to get excited for baking....
Though the question manages to throw her off.]
Dating?
Oh - for you and Kiyomitsu?
[well there's an easy part:]
Подарок! If you do not get him a gift, he will pout.
[Bless Anya's utterly blunt personality, honestly, especially because Yasusada's just as bad...
He also doesn't even realize he never mentioned Kashuu or their new relationship, because he's an oblivious moron.]
Well, yes, that's true... but do you think I have to give it to him some special way? Like... hide it under his pillow? Or drop it down a chimney or something? [what]
She's shipped it for a thousand years she's not surprised by this at all and there are more pressing things - like how to deliver a gift to your beloved.]
[And is possibly the only thing that makes sense about any of this?? But moving on... he's just gonna hum thoughtfully as he carefully works a flower around the wire.] What would you like best, An-chan? If someone was going to give you a gift.
[It's not an eloquent description, but it doesn't have to be. Yasusada nods slowly, turning over her answer in his mind.]
So it's most important to spend time together? [He can understand that. Especially for someone as busy as Anya; he can't help letting a small smile cross his face, at that thought.] It's very special now, right? Since An-chan has idol things to do all the time.
Always special! Ah... Mama is at work right now - Mama is at work a lot? [it's why she grew up so independent and so prone to looking for company in... odd places] Even before idol things, that is why time with Mama is most important.

Mm... I do not know how to answer this question ever. [????] What Anya wants is... Просто? How do I say... I do not want very much.
["Simple."]
If Mama gets to spend the day with Anya, that is enough.
