Model Idol Combi: Hair

[jitensha]

[ it's rare that she can garner enough time away from a packed schedule and her own school hours to drop by Kaijou, but even if it's just a practice match, Makoto likes to faithfully attend what she can. She's always liked basketball, so growing closer to Kise had only made that fondness stronger. It's fun to watch them get into the game, and it's fun to lose herself cheering for them.

But it's warmer today than it's been all week, and with the hat crammed over her head to hide her identity (she so optimistically felt), it was doing little to cool her head off. Strands were starting to stick to her neck.

... In a sense, it's a happy realization, that her hair was growing longer by the day, but for now, it was a little bit troubling. Still, she waits until the court's cleared out, enough of Kise's squealing crowd dissipating to allow her to sweep her hat off and try to salvage her hair.

It's a shame she can't see what she's doing. ]

How could I forget the food when Makocchi's hungry?

[He's rolling up his sleeves, spatula in hand. Let him dazzle you with his okonomiyaki cooking skills...

... Which he has none of but whatever man, at least he looks good doing it.]

[jitensha]

Aren't you--

[ ... oh, well. She can be sufficiently wowed by how pretty he looks scraping together a pancake. And she'll cheer him on like it's some big competition instead of... okonomiyaki cooking. ]

[ex_doubly406]

[No don't do that, he'll just get way too into it!!!

Look at him trying to flip it and... not doing that great. Tossing his beautiful hair while he pouts wondering why that didn't go like he expected.]

That's weird... Didn't Kagamicchi say to do it like that... Ah, I wish I was watching...

[jitensha]

Ah, I think you've got to flick your wrist a little faster. You almost had it, though!

[ too many times spent in places like this back when jobs were scarce and idols were hungry... ]

[ex_doubly406]

Oh, you know how to do it?

[He scrapes up the ruined pancake, dropping it onto his plate before passing the spatula to Makoto.] Can you show me?

[jitensha]

I'm not as good as Hibiki, but I'll try!

[ and she says it with a modest laugh, even as she's already scraping at the edges to gather up her ingredients and working on forming the pancake. It doesn't take long, and then she deftly scoops the spatula underneath it and turns her wrist almost simultaneously.

And that, Kise, is how you flip okonomiyaki. ]

[ex_doubly406]

[Uwoooooh consider him sufficiently impressed.]

You're really good at this! Like a pro okonomiyaki master! [Kise what does that even mean.

But yeah, he's already dropping in his ingredients again, completely ignoring the failure he already scraped up. He's making grabby hands for the spatula-- yeah he wants to do it now...]

[jitensha]

I don't think they have ranks, but it'd be nice if I was that good!

[ and she'll willingly hand over the spatula, having more or less expected that particular reaction. Go for it, Kise! ]

[ex_doubly406]

[Oh Makoto you know him well.

And having watched this time, his okonomiyaki is not an ugly disaster when he flips it. Whew thank god he cheated-- I mean]

There, a perfect one for the princess!

[jitensha]

[ wow, she'll even applaud. ]

I would've eaten the first one you did, though!

[ex_doubly406]

But as a princess, it wouldn't do to eat something that doesn't look good. Anyway...

[He'll start digging into the okonomiyaki that she made.]

Eat up, Makocchi!

[jitensha]

You're not going to feed me?

[ obviously a joke, since she's reaching for her food, but sometimes it's nice to be the one initiating fluster!! ]

[ex_doubly406]

Hm? Of course I will. I wanted to try yours first though.

[SORRY BUT YOUR PLAN FAILED. Because guess what, he ordered all the toppings she likes when he ordered his so that he can feed her.

So he'll be taking a small piece of the one he made, blowing on it before giving it to her.]

Say ah~

[jitensha]

[ how does he always stay one step ahead-- and poor Makoto is left trying very hard not to blush.

... Okay no, she can do this, so she leans forward, obediently opening her mouth and-- ]

Aaaah~

[ ... maybe it's just an old habit from going through the scales, but that was a little more musical than it needed to be. ]

[ex_doubly406]

[Urk, unexpected cute attack. But he manages to go through with it, looking so smug about feeding her after.]

How is it? Good, right?

[jitensha]

[ she pauses to chew and swallow before she answers, but once she does, she's beaming. ]

It's delicious!

[ex_doubly406]

Thank you, princess!

[And he opens his mouth, closing his eyes and saying 'ahh~'

Yes, it's your turn Makoto.]

[jitensha]

[ it's amazing how much spending time with the other idols has prepared her for all sorts of potentially embarrassing situations-- only this one isn't really that bad. She has to take a minute to break off a piece of the pancake he'd been eating, and with her free hand, she brushes some of his hair away from his closed eyes before she deposits the food in his mouth. ]

I hope it's to your liking as well, Your Highness.

[ so she's a bit of a dork, but no one can see them.

... Not that it would stop them. ]

[ex_doubly406]

[It's true, and they should really learn how to tone it down.

One day.

He doesn't expect to be called 'Your Highness', so he ends up burning the roof of his mouth while eating, but it's probably worth it. At least he's not going for water right away.]

--'Your Highness'? You're the only royalty here though! [WATER] Anyway, it's Makocchi's so obviously it tastes good.

[And he gets ready to give her another piece of his.

... They're never going to finish eating at this rate.]

[jitensha]

[ they'll get there eventually-- or Makoto will just neatly snag her bite before he can coax her into making noises at him. Other than the happy "delicious food from attentive boyfriend" noises, but it can't be helped. ]

... That's not true. [ with quite a bit of earnestness, even. ] It's obvious I'd need a prince, right?

[ex_doubly406]

[Hey, he lives for those noises. So keep making them please. I mean--]

That's true, but if you do it, I feel like the princess instead.

[jitensha]

E-eh?? [ wow, Makoto, way to still act manly. ]

I guess I still have to work at it, if that's the feeling I'm giving off...

1/2

[ex_doubly406]

[Oh no, don't look down.]

Well, for a lovey dovey date like this, it should be more like...

[ex_doubly406]

[AHEM.]

Please allow me to reward you for your hard work, my Prince~!

[He sure does sound convincing as a girl.]

[jitensha]

Amazing... you really do sound like a princess!
