[ At the very least he isn't being caught shirtless at the door - and true to his word, David's making his way outside once he has his jacket and gloves on. ]
[Minako is waiting for him outside, pink in the face from the cold. She's dressed in a gorgeous floral patterned, sunrise-colored kimono, hair piled up and pinned back. She doesn't have much time before she has to get back to Elizabeth, so she's gotta make the most of this impromptu visit...but still, she wouldn't forgo their usual greeting.]
Once David's out the door, he's stopped dead in his tracks. Not that Minako was never beautiful before, it's just a nice surprise to see her like this. His eyes are wide and his mouth is slightly agape, but he snaps out of it quick enough after she kisses him on the cheek, responding in kind. ]
That expression, for one. I wanted you to see this before I headed out to the shrine. [She does a slow turn so he can see the back of the obi as well.] What do you think?
[ It's said without hesitation once she turns around, and his expression is appropriately fond because of it. She does look gorgeous, of course. In face, he's feeling a little bit more bold and steps forward to tip her chin up and give her a proper kiss on the lips. ]
Glad you could stop by before you guys head over to the shrine.
[She lets out a soft, happy mmm under the kiss, lips curved up into a smile as she pulls away just enough to speak.]
Mmhm, it's part of her birthday celebration, since she's a New Year's Day birthday girl. But that's part of the problem-- I want to celebrate with her, but I also really wanted to kiss you at midnight. So I came to give it to you early.
[As much as she wants to invite him to the shrine, he deserves some sleep in preparation for Sorey and Mikleo's wedding tomorrow morning...]
It doesn't have the same exact magic as it does at midnight, but I can live with that. Though you sure you don't want me to come with anyway? long as nobody minds me tagging along, of course.
[ He'd totally get it if he couldn't, but he's ruined his sleep schedule for less. ]
Think we're taking the night off from anything too nuts for once.
[ Even if his job is to keep an eye on Yoon-sung, at this point with the apparent abilities he's regained from Retrospec, he's more than capable of taking care of himself at this point. ]
Sure, give me a few minutes to just check in, then I'll be out.
[ He ducks down to give her a quick kiss on the lips before heading back inside of the apartment to check up on Yoon-sung and his plans - and make sure he's got everything on him. Wallet, keys, phone - good to go.
It doesn't take him long to do so, and soon enough he's back outside. ]

[10pm is pretty late by normal standards, but it is, naturally, still very early in terms of New Year's Eve festivities and alcohol consumption.]

Alright, good to go, I think.

Date: 2018-01-03 08:29 am (UTC)I was just thinking that I should've asked you earlier, in case you wanted to wear a men's kimono, but I like you in this jacket more, I think.
