Names and genders changed to protect the innocent.
Mark and Bob are acquainted with each other. Mark feels strongly for Bob. Bob is rather indifferent to Mark. Mark is an okay acquaintance, but he has his quirks that make him unbearable to other people. Bob has a lot of patience, so the two of them can be said to hang out well enough together.
Mark is upset about this arrangement and decides to put more effort into attracting Bob's attention. Bob wants to understand Mark.
1. Do you think Mark is rational in this arrangement?
2. Is negative attention better than no attention at all for Mark? Why?

( Oh, he does not like that. Fuck LILITH for making this a thing, because Geto does not need Gojo's voice blaring at him. It's the surprise that keeps him from replying at first, and then, less loud, milder. )
I have been.
( Only the very deserving. )
Aiy, Satoru. You put me in a zoo you can't expect me to not call it like I see it.

Geto meets Satoru in the gala. Geto and Satoru exchange gifts because they haven't seen each other in a while. Geto thinks this is awfully generous of Satoru, Satoru thinks it's just nice that they're giving gifts to each other.
Satoru makes a stray comment about kissing Geto. Should Geto take him seriously?

[ On Christmas Day, there's a gift left for Geto.
Trying to find things he thought this man would like was a little hard for Yuji, but he did his best - and he can only hope that Geto ends up liking the things that Yuji managed to put together. The box is wrapped in black and blue paper, with a black bow on the top, and inside is a series of hand wrapped gifts:
Geto-san,
Thanks for looking out for me. I hope you have a really good next year, and that we can spend more time together.
I'm still sorry for beating you up.
- Yuji. ]

🐯 A bottle of what seems to be pretty fancy sake, or at least that's what the shopkeeper told Yuji.At the bottom is a note:
🐯 One sunshine emoji pillow, to match the rain cloud one they won together for Yuji to keep.
🐯 Some chocolates, a mixture of dark, milk and white.
🐯 A scarf, in a dark colour, definitely not hand made.
🐯 A mug, with a dragon motif decorating it and a little dragon head peeking out the bottom on the inside.
Geto-san,
Thanks for looking out for me. I hope you have a really good next year, and that we can spend more time together.
I'm still sorry for beating you up.
- Yuji. ]
[ Silco isn't the gift giving sort, but he is the passive aggressive sort.
So delivered by courier at an odd time of day is... a small bag.
Inside is A nice bottle of Japanese whiskey and a glass. It looks like it should be a pair, but... It's by itself.
he might be trying to say something bitchy here about being alone is better than being with old friends.
But! It's also unsigned! So! It could be someone else! ]

[ Getting the right ingredients and the right kitchenware takes a little bit of trading and bargaining but in the end Nanami manages to create a close approximation of zaru soba paired with two pieces of ebi tempura. Next to the bamboo tray is a small bag of the biscuits he made with Yuji the other day, attached is a small card.
To the prettiest princess the happiest of birthdays. --7

[ Not in a million years could Yuta have ever foreseen a curse coming to blacken his doorstep to deliver him maybe-or-maybe-not-poisoned food made by someone who tried his hardest to kill him in the past. Yet that's exactly what happened and despite whatever common sense might caution him to do, Yuta has oyakodon for dinner that night. (It was only ever a small gamble when he has RCT anyway and it paid off deliciously.)
Rather than text him, Yuta's thanks comes in the form of a token of (uncertain? begrudging?) appreciation left by Geto's doorstep the next day: a little box of traditional tea snacks that aren't too sweet and a soft drink that Geto will like. Or rather, the exact kind Geto would have grabbed when he was younger and the title of 'the strongest' was shared between two boys. How does Yuta know that particular preference? ~It's a mystery.~
With it comes a note that simply reads: ]
Too bad, I lived.
- Okkotsu

[Tanabata had gone so well, and Yuji had been so happy throughout it. It brought such joy to Raidou to see him acting the most like himself he'd seen in ages, and to also help the other Outsiders have a good time and forget their troubles for awhile. For it to end like this breaks Raidou's heart all over again.
He'll get Yuji to talk more in time. For now, there is a gentle knock on Geto's dorm door, fully expecting for it to not be answered. If not, that's okay. He can leave the meal he brought.]

( If Geto answers the door in a far worse state than Raidou has ever seen him then hopefully the young man is smart enough not to mention it. Because the shadows under his eyes are dark, his hair messy and limp, clothing rumpled. He clearly has not been sleeping, and his gaze settles on Raidou with no real comprehension for a long moment before it clears. )
Did something happen to Yuji?
( Voice rough, unused, his fingers white-knuckled on the door.
And yet, despite it all, there's concern there. Maybe that means something. )

( He almost leaves Megumi on read. He thinks about it for a good long moment, staring at the ceiling of Gojo's room ( an invasion, he's brought his ugly plushies with him ). In the end he replies, but only because the boy is semi-fragile in a way he recognises and he's not all that gone that he'd ignore it. )
You might fare better with someone else today, Megumi-san.

i believe in standing up for my friends and staying true to my word. as a matter of principle, i intend to settle matters with this person in front of Revelation Room 2. if we're neighbors, i apologise for the disturbance; i'll do my best to keep things short. for non-revelation residents, i'm sending this as a heads-up in case this causes trouble for all of us.
if you're not this person, i would appreciate knowing the truth and i apologise for the disturbance. if you are this person, you're a pathetic, weak-spined coward shamelessly picking on kids who just want a safe place to live in. have a good day.

[Whether or not Geto is back from his little escapade when the boys return from Sendai, there will be a package waiting for him. A small, non-descript white box either outside his door delivered by a purple hummingbird drone, or left on a desk or table inside his room if he's not back yet.
Inside is a handmade iron wind chime, and a small notecard.]
Greetings from Sendai.
- Kuzunoha Raidou XIV

( A picture of it hung up in the corner, above where Geto keeps his other belongings. The plushies he makes people win for him, the picture of his girls, trinkets. It fits there nicely. )
Raidou-san.
This is very pretty, thank you. Did you have a good time?
Raidou-san.

[ Shortly after Geto comes back from the trip with Gojo and Yuta's caught wind of their return, there will be a little drone bird carrying a plastic bag waiting for him by his door. Inside are containers holding a dish, ready to be assembled, that might be quite familiar to Geto when the likelihood that it's been made for him before is very high. It's a taste of Kenya as taught to Yuta by Miguel. Along with the containers is a note. ]
I used a tofu substitute instead of meat so it's a little different, but I got Royco seasoning back when we were in Egypt so it still tastes similar enough. I hope you had a good trip.

( A few hours later, sated and once he has built enough fortification for it -. )
Thank you, Okkotsu-san. That was very nice. The tofu did not detract, it was very well made.
( ...
A hum, alone where he's contemplative. )
I always liked it when it was Miguel-san's turn to cook. Did you enjoy it too?
