Ah, I see! Well, you don't need to worry, there are plenty of gifts here! These are the extra ones after plenty were already distributed to the children. [A sparkly little smile and pleased hum - Chiaki loves kids so much, it's ridiculous. But regardless, he also likes making new friends and so.] What type of practice did you come from? Do you enjoy sports? What are your interests? Hobbies?
[Then - pausing quite suddenly from where he's going through the bag - a look up and he might be a little starry-eyed.]
[ there's a few seconds' pause while akaashi tries to make the connection between sports and sentai, but he rallies. ]
I came from volleyball practice. I wasn't very interested in sports to begin with, but I enjoy volleyball. So, I guess that could be considered my main hobby. I don't have an opinion on sentai.
[ he vaguely regrets saying it after being exposed to the sparkle in chiaki's eyes. at least he didn't outright say he wasn't interested in it? ]
[you're really giving chiaki the benefit of the doubt if you think there's ever a logical connection between the current topic and sentai
but he's not too bothered by that - he gives a little bit of a grin and a laugh. Then a nod!]
Ahh, good, good! Volleyball sounds like a heart-pounding, exhilarating sport. I don't play it much myself, but it is fun to watch? Then... Hm... Perhaps this one!!
[HE FOUND A GIFT - it's a miracle that he manages to remember what is put in each of the boxes, but he does! ... Or at least he thinks he does.
Which is why he's going to hand Akaashi a brightly colored present! He thinks there's a water bottle inside.
[ he's giving chiaki the benefit of the doubt by thinking he knows how to make logical connections in the first place.
but anyway, he nods sort of noncommittally at what he says. volleyball is exciting to begin with, he supposes, and it's especially so when you have a temperamental ace for a captain. he's about to suggest chiaki try volleyball sometime when he gets a gift shoved at his face.
should he? open it?? it'd be kind of rude not to, right??? so he does. ]
[ akaashi is usually pretty good at restraint, but even he feels a little embarrassed by the teddy bear, feeling his cheeks warm and not from the cold. he carefully places the bear back in its box and gives it back to chiaki. ]
And we're hardly on first name basis, considering you've yet to introduce yourself.
[ it's not exactly much of a joke, but he tried. ]
[it's like the reminder that he hasn't introduced himself is an automatic trigger, causing Chiaki to straighten immediately and press his hand against his chest, excitedly reciting:]
I am Chiaki Morisawa, the one with the burning heart! The hero of Yumenosaki Academy...!
[and for some reason that doesn't embarrass him
yet he laughs, shaking his head as he reaches his other hand out]
Ah, but... My deepest condolences, but I cannot accept that gift from you.
"The one with the burning heart" sounds needlessly dire.
[ it just sounds like he's suffering from heart burn?? don't jinx yourself, chiaki. anyway, when chiaki refuses akaashi just sort of gives him a flat look for a few seconds before he tries to politely push it back into his hands. ]
This isn't a gift to you, I'm returning it. You said it was supposed to be a water bottle. This is false advertising.
[Only mistakenly. Accidentally. There's a moment where he looks genuinely concerned before shaking his head all the more vehemently, the little puffball on the end of his hat nearly hitting him in the face with the fierceness of his motion.]
You may still keep it of course - I will retrieve the water bottle...!!

i admit i'm not going to make it any better
[And then, as if Chiaki did not hear him—]

Do you like sentai?
[No, Chiaki.
You like sentai.]

It's actually a pink teddy bear.]

words that Chiaki would use if he cursed, but he's trained himself to be G-rated at all times so he doesn't.]
Wh-Wh-Wha....?!
[OOPS.]
No - that's not...! That's not a water bottle?! [no shit, sherlock]
Please don't misunderstand! We just met!!

no subject
chiaki being so adamant just makes akaashi regret everything, and he puts more effort into giving the bear back. ]
That's unnecessary, as I've already said I'm returning it. The water bottle is also unnecessary.
[ he's going to put this bear into chiaki's sack and there is nothing he can do to stop him. ]
no subject
[HE'S AMAZED. CONFUSED. DISTRESSED?!
Though Chiaki's a touchy person and that's why he's reaching out to place a hand on Akaashi's shoulder, his brow furrowing.]
My friend... it's the spirit of Christmas!
no subject
Peace is obtained by freeing yourself from materialism.
[ or something. akaashi doesn't really give a shit. he just wants chiaki to take this dumb bear back and stop trying to force gifts on him. ]
no subject
Chiaki is blinking at that, taking the bear if only because-]
How... cool!! Oohh, is that Buddhism? Or your personal mantra?!
Whoa!
[he's easily impressed]
no subject
[ why is he so easily impressed??? please stop. this whole exchange is making him a lot more exhausted than it should. ]
It's not for everyone. Please don't feel the need to deny yourself and others gifts just because of that.
no subject
Ah... well no - I do not think I could adhere to it myself, I am too fond of figures?
But still! To hear someone say it so seriously... How manly! I respect you!!
