Gundham and his dark consort have been sharing their path for nearly one month now, with white day marking their small anniversary. As such Gundham intended to surprise his beloved on that day, just as the mortal custom required. One month before, the Tamer of Automations had surprised the Overlord of Ice with an offering of self made sweets and both have confessed their mutually shared feelings for each other.

However now that white day was approaching, the Breeder of Hellish Beasts was in a dilemma. He sadly had no experience with this particular mortal custom or the typical practices of dating another mortal and thus had no idea what he should prepare for his consort.

The more the day neared, the more stress the Overlord was experiencing, however he didn't let it show to not cause any suspicion from his allies and most importantly from Kazuichi himself. Whenever he wasn't going after his daily duties off attending classes and caring for the many hellish beasts under his care, he was in thought about what he could prepare. Still nothing came to his mind and with only a few short days left, Gundham decided to follow up on his backup plan.

"Princess of Darkness, I am in need of your assistants. Do you have a few moments to spare for me?" Gundham walked up towards one of his most trusted allies after class, instead of going into the realm of the hellish beasts like he normally would do at this time of day. As much as he disliked to let his soldiers wait, this was the only time he could do this, as his consort was now occupied with his own duties, in the assumption that Gundham would not be available at this moment.

The She-Cat turned towards Gundham, her school bag still in hand, "Of course Gundham. Do you need help with some sort of spell that you want to try out?"

"No, it is not something like that." the Overlord of Ice shook his head, though he had to admit to admiring her dedication towards the dark arts. "What I need your assistants for is of the more, as the mortals would call it, romantic kind." As Gundham was not used to having such conversations with other people than his paramour, he was unable to stop his face from turning a reddish colour due to his blood flowing into his cheeks.

"Oh, so it is about Souda. With what can I help you?" Sonia gave a short giggle and had a pleasant smile on her face.

"As you might know, white day is approaching and with this also a small anniversary of the shared bond between the Pink Haired One and myself. I was hoping to surprise my consort on that day as tradition requires, however I am too unaccustomed towards these particular matters of a mortal's life and thus am unable to find something that would count as suiting." he began explaining his dilemma, "So now I am hoping that you as a mortal are able to help me with this matter." Sonia was Gundham's last hope now to being able to prepare anything in time, so that Kazuichi would feel happiness on that day and would be able to see how much he mattered to Gundham.

"I'll gladly help you." Sonia smiled, however her facial features fell again ever so slightly, "Though I must admit that I'm also not entirely knowledgeable about white day, since we don't celebrate it in Novoselic. But still, I will help you as much as I can!"

While this was not the best outcome, it was still help and Gundham was glad about it. "Thank you She-Cat, I owe you a favour in return for your help."

"There is no need for that. You are my friend, so I'll gladly help you." the Princess of Darkness replied, before beginning to think about the Overlord's problem. "First we need to know what is traditional to present on this day, so I would suggest that we search about informations regarding that day and work from there. Our best bet would be the internet, so that we could also look for suggestions from other people."
