[So, shortly after the lovely love holiday itself, when the house has become a sea of petals and floral smells, Kazuma will find a tray of heart cookies and rose tea waiting for him along with a note in the journals.]
Sorry for everything you've been having to put up with this month. But at least it hasn't been a total bust~!
[That's one benefit to Yato being Yato: his unwavering personality, flaws and all. One of which is him continuing to munch away while they have a conversation.]
Wasn't any problem. Didja like 'em?
[You better have liked them; he used his sweat and flower petals to make them!]
[Yet it's about what one would expect of the god full of little trinkets and baubles, no mirrors in sight, and one homemade mini shrine on the bedside table. The only surprising point might be how clean it is.]
Hehe~ I'm a god of many talents, I'll have you know. [As if that wasn't already apparent from the hundreds of years they've known each other.] It's rose petals. From yours truly!
[Sorry, Kazu. You ate bodily excreted rose petal cookies.]
[Oh yay. Vomit Cookies. Top notch cooking there, Yato. That was a bit of news that Kazuma most certainly could do without knowing.]
Ah... I am not worthy of such delights, Yato-sama. I will have to save the rest for a truly worthy moment. Things around the house have honestly been rather interesting.
[THEY WERE SNEEZE COOKIES OKAY. That's slightly better??? Though knowing Yato it's so hard to say whether or not he withheld that information deliberately or if it was a simple oversight.]
Okay, cut it out-- You're gonna freak me out here. What's with the Yato-sama business, anyway? We're closer than that, I thought.
[Okay, sneeze cookies are a much better option then what Kazuma is currently thinking of, but with what Yato said Kazuma's tone shifted from teasing to serious.]
We are as close as you want to be, but I also know just how much you enjoy a bit of a ego trip. I will be more careful with addressing you as such for now on. How should I properly address you, especially with how you and Iki act with each other? I don't want to overstay my welcome with two very good friends.
[Well, that's a bit of a relief. He was afraid there was something serious going on. Reaching out to grab his desk chair, he offers it to Kazuma.]
Okay, fair enough! Can't deny that I do like having my ego stroked a bit now and then. You just had me worried there for a moment.
[Though the mention of Hiyori and him makes him pause mid-bite to glance over at him before he slowly lowers the cookie, a smile overtaking his features.]
You won't overstay, idiot. Though that's something I wanted to talk to you about. Something I thought you ought to know-- at least before you found out the hard way. [Here he pauses again, this time to take a breath, letting out his next words in a rush.]
[God has everything to do with this turn of events, that's true. Although Hiyori herself confessed at the same time, so it's pretty much both their faults for things suddenly becoming... interesting.
If Kazuma had only been there for most of his antics and proposals, it probably wouldn't come as quite the shock it does. Alas, he missed out on all the fiascos concocted by the Delivery God. Who himself is watching Kazuma keenly to judge his reaction.
He's one of his best friends, after all. He trusts his judgement on a lot of matters.]
Just since yesterday. She-- I-- We both ended up confessing to each other for Valentine's Day. Though it's been a long time coming, considering how close we've become since arriving.
[It's a bit funny... Perhaps if Viina was here, he would of been able to live in domestic bless as well. Can you just imagine it- him and Viina being able to do cute things like make cookies and the like...?
But it is just not in the cards for him. It's just going to be him and him alone, at least Yato and Hiyori can have their happy ending here. Neither of them are aware of the same things he does.]
I thought that you two were being rather cute. Hiyori has the exact type of personality to handle you at your... worst best. You deserve each other.
[And....there might be a brief sting, but can Yato tell with the way that Kazuma is smiling at him?]
[It's something that Yato himself would've wished for the god and shinki pair, as well. He knows how close they are, just that... Bishamon is too thick to realize it herself. Maybe a place like this would've been able to teach her what she was missing.
Abruptly he slaps a hand to the back of his neck with a quiet hiss, eyes watering slightly. If he didn't know better, he'd swear that was--
But it can't be, can it? Yukine's not here. There's only Kazuma, and he's not...]
H..Huh? Oh, yeah, she really does, I'll give her that. And thanks... I can't tell you how happy it makes us, being able to finally admit it to ourselves and each other. But don't worry, we'll keep the romance to a minimum.
[Since he can imagine that Kazuma isn't having an easy time of it, being without his mistress.]
[Shit. Shit. Shit. He really needs to get a better handle of his emotions, it's far too daring to actually sting Yato right in front of him. There's only a certain amount of times that he could pull that stunt before even Yato would figure it out.]
Oh? Don't let me be the one to damper your romantic urges. Perhaps we can set up a code word if you wish to have the house to yourself again? What would be a great codeword?
[Thankfully it seems that Yato gets over it fairly quickly; he probably just... pulled a muscle or something, is all. And if he didn't-- Well, he certainly can't address the issue right now, can he? Besides, that would mean... No way.]
H-Haha, I'm sure there's no need for that...! [Especially not to the degree they need a codeword--! But still, it might come in handy?] Uhmm... How about Toya-sensei? That sorta makes sense, doesn't it?
[Let them both live in denial, it absolutely won't blow up in their faces right? Nothing ever goes wrong when you ignore all the red flags. Trust him.]
Toya-sensei? That sure brings back memories. And what if you happen to introduce our new home with your lovely talents? I can't help but notice the lack doujinshis here.
[Oh absolutely~ Nothing can possibly go awry when there's alarm bells sounding off all around you. At least Yato can be excused thanks to his short attention span.]
Oh---!! That's a great idea! I could earn mone-- oh yeah. Well, I could still restart my career as a manga artist here! Maybe get people to trade me for some of their own, if there's anyone with an artistic streak here.
[Let's keep playing the violin boys, the ship is only sinking!]
You know that you have my support if you do so. Do you remember the one you did with Viina as a school girl? There was a forum dedicated to "Lost Media" and found a few scanned pages.
[Back onto familiar and much easier topics such as old doujinshis and happier memories, Kazuma's shoulders untense a bit and he even ventured to lean forward in excitement.]
Hmn! I really enjoyed your swim team edition! I do think it was some of your finest work! I really liked some of the overlays that you used. If you bring your Doujinshis here would you use Hiyori as your model?
[It really is just like old times, with them enthusiastically gushing over their works together. He's glad they can do it out in the open now without having to worry about Bishamon wanting to lop his head off.]
Aw, thanks! I should make a sequel, then. Summer is coming up fairly soon! It'd be the perfect time for it.
[Though he has to stop and contemplate the question a moment.]
Hmmm.... That'd probably work really well. She's got the figure of an angel, after all. Graceful, lithe... A cute tail.
[Perverts, the both of them. Who in the world thought it would be wise to leave these two all alone with each other and assume that they won't eventually fall into old tactics?]
Hmn! A proper summer blockbuster! What sort of swimsuit do you think would fit Hiyori best? With Viina I always imagine her in a delicate two piece with a lot of frills on top. Not too busy to distract your eyes but enough to draw them!
[This is what happens when they don't have babysitters, or at least supervision. TROUBLE. Poor Hiyori, stuck in a house with these two dweebs. At least they're fairly respectful. (???)]
Something cute is always best for Hiyori! Perhaps reminiscent of a mermaid, with shiny fabric and shells for decoration. That sounds great for Bishamon, though! She hardly needs anything to attract attention, but something to highlight her assets would really work well. Maybe frills in a cascade effect?
[They really are being as respectful as they can be when talking about ladies that they love and what is the best to highlight them. They are like kids in a candy shop.]
Oh! Mermaids... That would be a great idea for a doujinshi! Mermaids and maybe even pirates? Viina could be a Pirate Queen and Hiyori the Mermaid Queen!
[Two very overgrown kids, haha... Considering Yato would be perfectly fine with Hiyori doing the same for him, it's all good? Nothing wrong with talking about your lady love and her wardrobe!
Pardon him while he grabs a notebook in order to write all this down.]
Oh man, you're a gold mine, Kazuma! This is why we make sure a great team, you know! "The Lovely Ladies of Lucious Lagoon"-- how's that?
[They really are proof of why one shouldn't be left alone too long. Here they are going into full Doujin mode.]
The alliteration is amazing! We could even branch out and do a reversal swap! I bet Hiyori would make for a great Pirate Queen as well! You can even show her the proper way to hold a sword!
[Adult Supervision Required. All they need is the art supplies.]
Hell yeah--! With a pretty peacock feather in her cap and frills on her long coat... Calf-high boots that button all the way up~ [Give him a moment, he's drooling.] Oh yeah, that's true, too! Maybe she'll even pose for me...

So there's a knock on Yato's door.]
Yato, you in there?
no subject
Hmm? Yeah, sure. C'mon in!
no subject
Hello Yato. I wanted to thank you for the treats, it wasn't necessary.
no subject
Wasn't any problem. Didja like 'em?
[You better have liked them; he used his sweat and flower petals to make them!]
no subject
They were delicious. I would of never dinged you as a baker. What is your secret ingredient?

Hiyori and I are dating.
no subject
They... they are actually dating each other... Yato and Hiyori are mutually in love. Yato loves Hiyori, just as much as she does him...
It was a bit of a struggle to keep his face free of the conflicting emotions, much less keep that smile revealing the less then pleasant thoughts.]
Oh? That's great news. H-How long have you two been official?
