[...Silver has no idea why someone's throwing rocks at his window, but he certainly doesn't care, either; that's trespassing, he's not getting hit by a rock, Feraligatr's dealing with this one.
He opens the window, stays a safe distance from it, and instead Feraligatr's head pops out and immediately sprays water down below.]
[That should be a familiar voice yelling his name, oh my god, why is she dating you. Look, if you look out your window, there is going to be the scowling face of your girlfriend, she is the most pissed right now.]
Why don't you look outside like a normal person?! Who else is going to be outside your house?!
[Please give her that jacket, don't step on the stuff by her feet--]
It's your birthday, moron. I got you presents. I should just keep them from you for soaking me though.
[She'd feel so righteous about it. Her annoyance is a small steam-riser, but she sighs and shakes her head, picking up her basket. It's got a woolly... thing covering whatever's inside from view.]
Just warm me up and I'll forgive you, okay? I shouldn't have expected anything different from someone who wasn't effected by those distrust potions I experimented with...
Yeah, sure. Come on in, I'll lend you some of my clothes.
[And then Honchkrow comes down and he just grabs White and flies the two of them up, as if the absurdity of his tiny girlfriend fitting into his clothes just doesn't exist.
It's a bit of a tight squeeze- a few branches are near the windowside as well- but thankfully, his room is comfortably warm in complete contrast to the outdoors.]
[This is... nice. The thought of wearing Silver's clothes is nice, too, but it's going to dawn on her that she might either be changing in here (and in front of him, kind of) or elsewhere like a normal person should first assume.
And she kind of wants to change in here. It's so warm. That's absolutely the reason, because it's warm and she will not accept anything else it is very warm she is only making it warmer. It's so warm, it's making her face warm.]
Thanks, um. You can have the basket. Everything inside's your gift this year.
[The woolly thing on top's actually a red knit sweater, though one sleeve's a little longer than the other, and there's a sealed (cinnamon) pie beneath it. Tucked to one side is a crystal from Theasthai that's been carved into a feather.]
[The basket is very nice and he'll look at it in a moment, but for now he sets it on his bed- Weavile starts peeking inside but doesn't mess with it too much- and grabs a shirt, his... boxers? His pants? he's grabbing both, and... his socks probably won't fit her, but they're warm anyway. All nice and clean!
He holds them all out to her.]
Do you need help?
[She is a grown ass woman who can handle herself, but at the same time cold wet clothing sticks to you, and it's better that she get out as quickly as possible. Of course, there's also the added bonus that in a warm room, Silver's definitely the warmest thing around as his concern heats everything up.]
[Since it's just her simple white dress she came with from her world, forgoing the fashions of Verens in favor of something familiar since the weather's nice. It'll be fine.
... She's still turning away after a moment to undress though. They're dating, she can do that, it isn't like she hasn't done it with other boyfriends before.]
I... don't mind if you help still, I guess. My hair's pretty wet after all.
[Then she can be close to her personal heater too. Win-win.]
[Ryuunosuke isn't usually awake before noon, but it's around nine in the morning when he taps Silver over the crystal. There's the usual hum of energy beneath his words, but there's also something that's a little more hesitant, maybe even a little concerned if you tilt your head and squint.]
[Silver's done his best to pull himself together, but it still doesn't take a genius to tell that something's off; he's collected, sure, but he can't really mask the resigned sorrow gently filtering through the crystal, either. Of course, he's not the only one that's off either, if Ryuunosuke is any indication.]
Yeah, sure. Are you okay?
[Well, at least Silver's concern still feels the same.]
[But it's pretty obvious that Silver isn't okay. Sure, Ryuunosuke's bad at this, but he's not that bad. There's a moment where he sort of fumbles before he finally gets back on track.]
So! Do you want to go out for a hike or something? You like stuff like that, right?
[The door's open, so you can let yourself in when you get here! It's a lot brighter and cheerier in here, but the wallpaper is still all kinds of godawful.]
[It doesn't take too long for Silver to show up and head in- and as ridiculously bright as it might be in here, it's still kind of nice. Better than all grey and falling apart, right?]
Ryuunosuke?
[Silver himself is a little chilly, but you know, it could be worse. He hasn't turned his room into an ice palace yet.]
ARE YOU IN YOUR ROOM ARE YOU GROWING MUSHROOMS MAKING ICE ON THE COUCH AGAIN
HANGING WITH YOUR BIG BUG???
Wherever, Gold's gonna be launching himself at Silver for a one-armed hug.]
Buddy! Old pal of mine! How would you like to go to a sleepover next week? I mean, you're gonna have to dress up a little 'cause that's the theme of it and I ain't got the hair for it, but it'll be fun!
A nice blouse and a skirt, or maybe a full dress? I figure you'd look better in the first.
[...... Please don't comment on the fact he's apparently thought this out?]
It's a party for princesses and out of the two of us, you're the better lookin' candidate for bein' a princess! I'll even do somethin' about your hair!
