Hello, Tsukino-san! You were my recipient for Secret Santa, and I was wondering if I could meet up with you to give you your gift? Hahaha, sorry, I know that probably makes it less of a secret... But I thought it would be better than asking someone else to give it to you...
Anyway, whenever you're free, I'd be happy to bring it to you!
Oh sure! I don't mind meeting up! I don't close my office until a bit later in the day, but I would be happy to meet you after I close up the agency! Why don't we meet up at From the Hearth!
Sure, that's fine! I'll get a table for us and meet you there, just ask for me.
[Whenever Usagi comes by, she'll find Naegi in a quiet corner near a window. She may or may not notice the bandages covering his fingers from all the burns he gained while cooking, but there's one thing that will be very obvious - a clear plastic bag of rabbit-shaped sugar cookies sitting on the table, topped off with a pastel green bow. It took a bit of work and burning himself, but hopefully she'll still like it...?]
Okay will do! But ah... who is it I should be asking for??
[Sorry, Naegi, she doesn't mean to be rude.
She does eventually make her way to the cafe, looking around for Naegi when she asks the new hostess at the front for her secret santa. She's guided over to the table and smiles, offering a little bow in greeting.]
[Sorry Usagi... Forgetting to introduce himself has been a bit of a bad habit, but he's trying to break out of it! At least it will add to the surprise a little...?]
Ah, you must be Tsukino-san! I'm sorry for not telling you my name before, but I'm Naegi Makoto. It's nice to finally meet you in person!
[He gestures at the bag a little timidly.] It's the first time I've baked in a while, but... I hope you like your present!
Makoto? What a great name! [Not biased at all, what.]
Ah it's wonferful to meet you in person too! [She bowed as she took a seat. She blinked and took the bag, opening it.] OH MY GOSH HOW CUTE! YOU MADE THESE FOR ME!?
[Naegi's probably a little red, taste of curry mild on his tongue with his embarrassment. It's been a while since that emotional effect has hit him, but he hadn't expected the use of his first name at all.
But he laughs lightly, pleased with her enthusiastic reaction.]
I'm really glad you like them, though! I wasn't sure if the rabbit shape was a good idea, but I thought I'd take a chance on it.
Oh no, I love rabbits! Second favorite animal, honestly! It used to be the first until my cat Luna. But no, I love rabbits. Everything I own is covered in rabbits!
Ah, I'm so glad! [Oh good...! His luck was actually useful this time. Besides not blowing up the kitchen while cooking in the first place.] Rabbits are definitely cute, and cats are too... Let me know if you like the cookies, though! It was a little tricky [mostly because he kept burning himself, but-, so hopefully they came out okay.
[The bandages scratch at Naegi's face a little as he drops his chin into his palm, smiling a little sheepishly.] It's been a little while since I baked, but I think they came out okay... Do they taste alright?
Aaah! They taste soo goooo! [She put a hand to her cheek as she ate another.] You can always tell the difference between home made things, they're wonderful!
