[Kanji has the most "foolproof" plan. Certain conversations have convinced him that he should give reverse chocolates for Valentine's and he wants to put that extra effort in. His friends are worth it, dammit, and if girls can give friend chocolates, so can he.

But the idea of getting caught making Valentine's chocolates is embarrassing as hell. He's not that comfortable with himself yet. So, here he is trying to "cleverly" disguise his chocolate making activities down in the kitchen. By announcing them over the journals. Yeah, he's pure genius, this boy.]

So, Valentine's is coming down on us real fast and I know most girls just go and buy their chocolates 'cause it's easier, but going the extra mile and making your own is real cool and awesome, you know?

I also kinda know that a lot of girls 've never made chocolates, and chocolates are tricky to get right. I've done it before for White Day and shit so, uh, I thought that if anyone wanted I'd show people how. 'Cause we're stuck here together, and helping each other out 'll make things better for everybody. And if any of you guys are gonna do reverse chocolates, you're welcome too. I'll be down in the kitchen if anybody wants to take me up on it.

[Yes, this is his plan. It is an ironclad excuse if anyone comes down and sees him making chocolates, right? Right? He also has no idea how Valentine's is even celebrated outside Japan. Whoops!]

[ Monica will take him up on that offer. Leaving her journal in her room, she makes her way down to the kitchen. ]

Hey- you're the guy who was on the network talking about cooking chocolate, right?

[punk_cute]

That's me! The name's Kanji.

[He's got things set out for all kinds of chocolate treats, but no measuring cups or spoons. However, there's some finished and partially finished concoctions already.]

Anything you were lookin' to make in particular?

[allaboutattitude]

Monica. [ a nod in greeting ]

Not really? I don't think I've ever made chocolates before. I'll make anything.

[punk_cute]

Let's start simple, then!

First you gotta get a double boiler to melt the chocolate. You can't do it right over the fire or it'll burn.

[And he continues explaining slowly and carefully, while demonstrating how to do it. It's a simple confection, but he does it very well and it'll taste delicious.]

[ardor]

[Kallen's entering the kitchen when she hears him dictate.]

Chocolates, huh?

[punk_cute]

Yeah. You come down to learn how? Just let me--

[He's finishing up a fine confection and turns away to pay attention to it so he won't ruin it.]

[ardor]

Uh, not intentionally, but it can't hurt.

[She stays where she is for the moment.]

[spinstrikes]

...Dude, you can't be serious. Are you serious? That-

[That's so wrong. D: YOSUKE'S BRAIN CAN'T HANDLE THIS. He's coming down to the kitchen right the hell now to scope this out]

[punk_cute]

Yeah, man, I'm serious. You got a problem with me showin' the girls here how to make their own chocolates?

[He'll find Kanji in the middle of making the most adorable chocolates once he gets there.]

[spinstrikes]

[YES HE DOES. IT'S FOR GIRLS, KANJI. Why can't you have a manly hobby like rugby...]

Why is this something you even know how to do? That's like...Something Yukiko- Nevermind.

[Yukiko only gets to cook if they want to die]

[stalkershiki]

You know how to make chocolates?? That's so cool! I had no idea!

[punk_cute]

Yeah, I like cookin' shit. And I figure there's gotta be some girls out there that've always wanted to give homemade chocolates but don't know how, you know? So I thought I could help 'em out!

[stalkershiki]

Wow, that's such a good idea, Kanji! I had no idea you were so [wait for it oh god she's gonna say it] sweet~

[...Yeah. She just did that. And she's not sorry.

......Neither is her mun.]

[incantati]

[ dumbledore hadn't heard the message on the journal, so when he walks into the kitchen, nose-in-book, he surprised for a second when he looks up. then he smiles. ]

Hello. I hope I won't be in your way.

[punk_cute]

Oh! Nah, it's fine. I'm just down here to show anyone how to make chocolates if they wanted. You know, for Valentine's.

[incantati]

[ he closes his book as he goes across to the pantry. ]

Oh, that's kind of you. I'm a bit hopeless in the kitchen, so I won't waste your time.

[foolreversed]

[kanji what the hell are you doing.

ok adachi has to go check this out there's no way he's missing out.

So he's just going to sneaky sneak into the kitchen all quietly, until he's not far behind Kanji, then he speaks in a low voice]

Chocolates, huh?

[punk_cute]

[Kanji yelps and turns around, then scowls.]

Dammit! Don't do that! I coulda ruined the chocolate!

[foolreversed]

Oh come on, it can't be that easy to ruin chocolate. Lighten up a little!
