Who: Kaworu Nagisa and whomever else
Broadcast: Fleetwide
Action: he's in his quarters on the Vanquish.
When: 9/13, which is the anniversary of a horrible catastrophe on his planet!! also his birthday. but mostly the catastrophe thing.

I've gotten a sponsorship box, although I am still not entirely sure what that means. Anyway, it came with the assertion that I should have a wonderful day. But since I hope that you, the reader, will have a wonderful day, and because it would take me a very long time to eat all of this, I'm going to leave it out and let you come and take a cup full, if you'd like to.



It's sitting in the cargo hold of the Vanquish. There are other things there, as well, but you can find this particular box thanks to the glitter on the floor surrounding it. You can take more than a cup, too. I won't be monitoring it. I want to share any bounty I can with any creature I can. A debt is no good.

I do have one request, independent of boxes and cups. If you have the time, and if you feel nostalgic, would you tell me about your planet? It can be anything you want to say. Whatever details are most vivid as the memory of your home. Whatever hallmarks you consider to define your dwelling place. Thanks.

Don't you think it would be nice to go swimming?

[There's no greater gift. Seriously, there's nothing that can compete with the smile on Kaworu's face or the exuberance in his voice. His eyes could outshine the brightest star in the vastness of space. He has every hallmark of happiness, and that's before he's ready to unwrap the gift and find out what it is.] You don't have to thank me, [Shinji replies, sounding a bit feeble himself. One good day won't absolve him of the many bad ones he's responsible for, but he's still trying to do the right thing for Kaworu.] Just, uh, if you don't like it, we can take it back and try to find something else.

[But it's obvious from Kaworu's reaction--open, honest, near-to-glowing, the most buoyant Shinji has ever seen him--that liking it or not liking it shouldn't be a question. Shinji feels like he's going to start crying, mostly from relief, some of it from the intensity of being in love. At this point, Shinji would conquer an entire planet--two planets--a solar system--if it meant making Kaworu happy. That's probably kind of maybe insane, but he doesn't care anymore. Kaworu deserves nothing less than the best of everything.]

Oh, yeah, it... [Shinji reaches over to tap the stylish window display of the kit.] It has... let's see, it has eyeshadow, blush, nail polish... and other things, I don't remember exactly. I asked to clerk for something more--comprehensive? And Asuka, she gave me some advice, too, so... [So it's technically another gift from Asuka, even though Shinji wants to claim Kaworu's happiness for himself. He ducks his head a little, smiling about the good reception, yet embarrassed by his own feckless greed. His face is reddening all the way to the tips of his ears.] So I hope you like it, Kaworu-kun.
