[Her face when who gives a fuck about western holidays... Okay well it's not like she didn't see Mikiya all the time anyways (THEY'RE BOTH LOSERS ALRIGHT), but having a party like this was just. (pokerface) WHY DID THEY HAVE TO GO TO HIS HOUSE ANYWAYS GOSH sorry Mana you are dealing with the most difficult mom ever. Maybe in ten years she'll understand...]

Why're we doing this again. [No really why SHE DOESN'T UNDERSTAND.]

Because today is Mother's day and I have a surprise for you.

[ Shiki you should be glad you have a child who likes dragging their parent to parties. ]

Plus papa has something for you as well.

[ 'sup, here's daddy alright. n_n Besides, he's looking fairly happy because what's better than spending time with his 'family', as weird as the whole daughter-from-the-future thing is. Come on, Shiki, have fun.. ]

That's right. Don't you think it's fun? Besides, if Mana really wants to celebrate Mother's Day we should let her, right?

[SHIKI REFUSES TO HAVE FUN FOREVER AND ALWAYS!! Everyone in her life is difficult good lord...]

Wait, why would he have something too. Thought this was just for people's moms. [Someone's gonna have to explain how this holiday works to her. c_c] Alright, alright, fine. Let's celebrate this thing and get it over with.

You can get other people gifts you know. [ To bad Shiki, it's fun time even if you don't like it.]

The holiday is about mothers in general.

Exactly. You're Mana's mother, right? [ you know, their kid?! their.. future kid.. but either way, it's a good excuse for family time, even if it's strange to do it so early on in his life. But it's nice either way. ]

So we thought we should get you something together.

... sure. [She is forever unsure I'm sorry MAYBE ONE DAY... ONE DAY......!]

Hoh. Must be something nice if it's coming from the two of you.

I think you'll like my gift, you can use it a lot.

Are we going to leave her guessing for a bit, Mana? Or do you think we should just get to it?

Not sure if I'll be able to handle the suspense any longer. [She sure doesn't sound like it, but at least it's a joke.]

Trying to figure out what it is might be fun so let's see if mother can guess it before we just give her the gifts.

[ yeah, he knows it's just a joke, so it's easy to agree with Mana on this one.. ]

Got a good guess already, Shiki?

Hm, let's see now... [What on earth do people get for Mother's Day? Birthdays she can make a slightly better guess but uhhhh.]

Flowers?

Good guess but that's not exactly the right answer.

It's even close. [ a smile. ] Besides, you might like this more.

[What is close to flowers but not flowers... And she'd like it more? If Shiki was ever honest with herself she would probably guess STRAWBERRY ICE CREAM but no that is.

Embarrassing...]

Do I get any other hints?

The gift I got you is something you can wear.

There, you can guess Mana's present first. Mine's something that's probably easier to show after that.

[ you don't know how much ice cream he has, okay. Mayfield gave him so much his fridge is full of it and still that wasn't enough.. ]

... a kimono then? [That certainly would be a gift Shiki would like, but last time she checked it wasn't something you could make so easily. ALAS, THIS IS HER ONLY GUESS.]

Almost there, I didn't have enough time to make one but it's still something you would wear. [ Maybe when she has more time she'll make a full kimono. ]

[ Come on, Shiki, you can do it, guess it.. Mikiya will just stand over here and watch, okay, he's just content watching their little family being uguu. ]

Almost there? Then the only thing left it... [She smiles. Mana actually going through the effort to make something like that, well--it's nice. Even Shiki can appreciate it, and that's probably the most surprising.] An obi, right?

Correct, I asked Ms.Touko to help me make it. [ Something that would last a bit longer than ice cream seemed like the better choice when it came to gifts. ]

[ Hey, don't hate on his gift, it's.. meaningful..?? ]

If even Touko-san joined in on helping it, it must be pretty special. [ he's probably joking slightly, judging from his smile. ]

[As meaningful as a sink full of empty cartons can get I guess...]

Hoh, it certainly sounds like it. [AND AT LONG LAST, Shiki does something nice (or for her at least) and gives Mana a pat on the head.] It must've been pretty tough.

[ Yay for pats on the head. ]

It wasn't as hard to make as I thought it would be. Ms.Touko was really nice about showing me what to do. [ Along with not talking about how she got the materials to make it, but that's another story. ]

[ Oh no, this is so cute to watch.. His family is being the moes they really are, okok. He won't ruin this nice mother daughter moment, okay, he'll just be waiting over here until he can present Mt. Ice Cream.. ]

[What a present that'll be...]

Ah, she helped with this? [Somehow she isn't surprised... Oh well, it turned out alright.] Pretty nice of her I guess.

I need to think of a way to thank her later, I don't think just saying thanks is enough for helping me.

Now that I've given you my gift, papa has a big gift for you to.

Hmm, that's right. Should I just go ahead and show it now, then? It's in the kitchen.

[ you'll never see this one coming, shiki u_u ]

[For a second she's almost looking forward to something just as cool but

> in the kitchen
> kitchen
Ah...]

A "big gift", is it? [SIGHING INTERNALLY ALREADY] Alright, to the kitchen then.
