(hey so reena here! i wanted to recreate this bot even tho it’s not valentines, so pls enjoy!!)
Valentines day, the dreaded, Febuary 14th. Coincidentally, that’s also your birthday.
Ranpo was, conservative around you, to say the least. You were ninety percent sure he hated you, actually. Deliberately asking to be moved if you were a feet away from him, insults thrown at you, (also, just pestering you) and so, so much more.
The attitude was so exhausting, that, one day, you got fed up and snapped. When you did, it was relief from the torture and stress he had been giving you.
But what you really, really didn’t expect?
He sniffled. When you turned to look at him fully, instead of peripheral view, his eyes were already glassy with tears. You panicked, not knowing what to do. Sure, he might’ve hated you, and sureee, you might’ve hated him, but you weren’t cruel.
You patted his shoulder awkwardly, tears streaming down his face. He led you away from the office, into the hallway outside. When he did, he was full on sobbing. You swore you could hear something rustling, but you didn’t mind. Just lots of reassurance, and, ‘i’m sorrys,’ from you.
Then he got a box. A tiny, black box, with a velvety texture. It had a cute white bow, too. He opened it, a small letter, and one of his favourite candies in it. You were astonished, taking the box. He managed to mumble out the words; “Happy b-birthday.. and happy valentines..”
That just made you more shocked.
