3rd person POV
"AAAAH! TOMIOKA! OPEN MY GIFT!" Mitsuri squealed, shoving a neatly wrapped gift into Giyuu's arms. "Wait, we aren't supposed to open gifts already-", Shinobu said, her words quickly getting dismissed by Tengen. "If we're opening gifts already then open mine next!" Tengen said, wrapping his arm around Giyuu's side. It was already clear he had a few drinks...
"Ok, I'll open your gift, Kanroji.", Giyuu said, sitting down on the floor of his estate. He precisely opened the gift, in case of it being something fragile.
After all of the rapping was off, it revealed 2 candles and a necklace. Giyuu looked at the necklace first, as it caught his eye. It was a long silver necklace with a green crystal set in place with a matching silver pendant.
"This looks beautiful, Mitsuri. Thank you.", Giyuu said, reaching around his neck to put on the necklace.
From across the room, he could see Iguro glaring at him from across the room because of using Mitsuri's first name.
After he put the necklace on, his eyes wandered over to the candles. One of them was labeled "Eucalyptus Rain." He took off the lid and smelled the candle. He thought the scent was quite delightful. He then looked at the other label.
Ohagi scented.
Giyuu looked back up to see Mitsuri winking at him.
He opened the lid, and it smelled exactly like Ohagi, as advertised. He picked up both of the candles and set them somewhere they wouldn't get damaged. When Giyuu was getting ready to open the others' gifts, he could feel their eyes on him as they gathered around.
Sanemi POV
A moment after we got there, Kanroji was already practically begging Giyuu to open her gift. I thought it was weird that we were opening gifts immediately, but I didn't mind. I couldn't care less for what Kanroji got him but something that caught my eye is the Ohagi scented candle. Then she winked at him? Does she know something that I don't?
Giyuu POV
I could see Sanemi looking at the Ohagi candle, but I didn't think much of it.
*time skip*
I opened everyone's gifts. Not everyone got one for me, but I don't mind. I don't really need anything. I could see Rengoku bring out a cake that I'm guessing he or Kanroji made. I'm assuming Kanroji, though, because it's strawberry shortcake, and she's the only one who knows it's my favorite.
"Strawberry shortcake? Really?" Iguro said, mocking my cake. Is it bad to like strawberry shortcake? I think it's good.
I could see Kanroji slightly nudge him in the arm.
As I was about to take the first bite of cake, Uzui poured everyone a glass of liquor. I wasn't planning to drink any, though.
As I took a bite of the delicious dessert that was made for me, I could see from my peripheral vision that Kocho was walking up to me. I felt her poke my arm then she spoke.
"Tomioka, aren't you going to take a drink of what Uzui poured you? It's your birthday, after all."
She said that with her usually teasing voice. And though she was right, it is my birthday, I don't like drinking. Then she spoke up again.
"Come on, you don't want to be boring, right?"
I just wanted her to be quiet, so I quickly drank the entire glass. I thought to myself... That will backfire later.
"Are you happy now?"
I said as I turned toward her.
"Wow, don't you think that was a bit much? Whatever, maybe it'll make you smile~"
Ugh, can she ever just... be quie-
And before I could even finish my thought, Uzui came up behind me and poured another drink for me.
"Damnnn, you already finished that...~??"
Ok, I knew he already had a few drinks, but was he already drunk? I already got here and he's acting insane... More insane than usual, I mean.
"Yes...?"
As he was pouring my second drink, he spilled a bit onto my yukata and I was a little upset, since I particularly thought this one looked nice.
As everyone got a slice of strawberry shortcake and started eating it, I could already start to feel the buzz from the alcohol.
How strong was this shit? I hope I don't do anything I regret later...
