[ with a huge sigh (though he'll never know about that), she drags herself to the store and picks the first thing she finds.
she's not one for stuffed animals... or toys, really. she wonders why gokudera wants one so bad on her way there, but she can never ask him, of course. she decides that leaving it on the porch is a bit cold, so she ignores his request and knocks on his door anyway. don't worry, it's in a pillowcase, out of the public eye. ]

[ When she doesn't respond he starts to get impatient, paces near the door, peaks outside, checks his phone. This was supposed to be the least embarrassing way out, but maybe Nanako's actually not as naive as, say, Lambo (so there is a difference between a five- and eight-year-old) — is he really going to have to explain himself to a kid? Is it going to come to this? It's a long story.
[ for some reason, even though it meets all of his criteria, she feels like this won't please him... she has a feeling if dread as she watches the door open. ]
I-I have to go in? [ though she does as he asks, she's not very happy about it! ]
How come you're acting so silly...?
action 1/3 | I feel that there's some pain behind its eyes... in that stare...
[ Grabbing the pillowcase, thrusting a hand in without looking and pulling out... the most hideous thing he's ever seen. He's silent for a moment... another moment...

mostly scared. she puts a hand on top of her head in the spot he ruffled it... ]
I didn't know you— [ liked things like this. but she holds her tongue. how long will his niceness last? ]
A-Are you sure you're alright? Maybe you have a fever...
