He'd probably get sick eating nothing else, at least with the energy needed here, so I don't think it's mean to say at all. Of course, I say meaner stuff all the time...

[He nudges him a bit with his shoulder.]

You're like a firecracker. That's why bombs fit you as a weapon.

[He chuckles then takes another bite.]

Tch. ... ... You're just gonna encourage me, if it means you call me a firecracker. [Right stuffing his face before he says something dumb.]

Encourage you?

[He smiles.]

To be spontaneous?

[Right, don't say 'or to be an ass', that'd be a total mood ruiner. Gokudera swallows his food, nudging Makoto's foot with his own as they sit on the bench.] Maybe something like that.

[He would hope that he's not encouraging him to be mean. He nudges his foot in return.]

After this, where did you want to go? Somewhere warm, right?

[He takes another full bite of food.]

We could go back to the mansion. O-or, your place. [The mansion isn't overcrowded with people waiting to walk in on them, though.

He's a teenage boy, alright, he's got ... needs.]

The mansion is fine. I get to see Uri, too. [His other true love.]

[For a date, even if it didn't include making out, the Halfway House was too crowded for a proper one-on-one moment. They would both be prone to getting asked to do a chore or bothered by something. It was a lively house.]

She'll be happy to see you again. I think she likes you more than me.

I don't think so. I just spoil her more. I'm just making it harder for you. Hahaha!

You don't seem so sorry about that. [Gokudera finishes up his food with that, and when they're both done he stands and offers Makoto a hand up.]

[He puts the containers away and folds up the blanket then accepts the hand up. He doesn't let go of his hand, however.]

Let's go then.

[Gokudera is just fine with that. He talks about inconsequential things while they make the walk around the lake, often preferring to listen to Makoto though. When they start heading back to the mansion, he pauses as they pass by a building.]

Ah, hey, come with me, I wanna show you something. [He nods to the old theater they're right outside.]

[Makoto's gaze follows Gokudera's when they pause and he just nods, following along.]

All right.

[Leading Makoto inside, Gokudera leads him through the aisles of seats up to the stage where the piano is. He checks by to make sure it stays in good condition. ] Ah, sit anywhere.

[Gokudera takes a seat at the grand piano, lifting the lid.]

Any requests?

[Makoto perks up at the sight of the piano and watches as he takes a seat there. He looks around then takes a seat in the front row of the audience area.

He's pleasantly surprised.]

Requests...hm...What's your favorite?

Franz Liszt. I also have some sheet music for Debussy too.

[And this is where things start going over his head. He'd heard of Debussy, but couldn't put a song to the name. He hadn't heard of the other thing.]

Go with that then!

[He just wanted to hear Gokudera play. He could appreciate listening to music well enough.]

[Maaaaybe Gokudera had been thinking they could stop by the theater so he just HAPPENS to have it on him~

Setting the sheet music up because it isn't one he has memorized, he tests a couple of the keys out first for a warm up before beginning to play]

[When he started, it was a little surprising coming from someone like Gokudera. Admittedly, if Gokudera just said he played an instrument, he would have thought something like the electric guitar or the drums.]

[But when the soft tinkling noise started coming from the piano created by his feelings, he felt like he was seeing yet another side of Gokudera that he knew was special.]

[And he absolutely loved it. It was so beautiful. And hearing it come from Gokudera made it all the more lovely. He was so happy to hear such a pretty and soft piece come from his rough and tumble boyfriend.

It reminded him of the kind and gentle side that he got to see when they were together, snuggled up beside each other.]

[He closed his eyes and started to let his mind drift to things that made him happy. Floating on his back in the pool as he looked up at the endless sky, sharing popsicles with his best friend, talking late into the night with his new boyfriend...

He couldn't help but smile happily as the song went on.]

[Gokudera's mind always went to a different place when he played piano, focused entirely on the task in front of him. Here, in this place, he had a chance to rediscover his love of the music, his joy in playing in the first place. Especially... especially for the people he cared about.

When he was finished, he looked up at Makoto, hesitant and searching his expression to see if he enjoyed the music.]

[He thoroughly enjoyed the performance. When Gokudera finished playing, he stood up and clapped enthusiastically.]

Bravo, Hayato!

[He made his way up onto the stage, smiling brightly.]

That was beautiful...!
