Yeah? I think a necklace might be doable. They took everything we had on us at home, so it's not like I can give you anything from there, even if it has sentimental value. [Like, say, a phone charm. That used to be her only friend for a while.

... Funny how that keeps happening to her.]

I'll figure it out.

[ Sentimental value. That's a new thing, isn't it? There wasn't a lot that Minato carried around with himself even back home, but objects that remind you of specific people...he gets it.

There's a pause as he slowly rubs his thumb over the back of her hand. ]

Guess that means I should get you something too.

[... Ugh, she's never escaping this. And she never really wants to. She glances down when his thumb moves and closes her eyes to fight the little blush that tinges her cheeks.]

Y-you don't have to. [To be perfectly honest, he doesn't. But... maybe it'd help.] I mean, I appreciate the thought either way. [It's the thought that counts or whatever. Well, at least in this situation, considering her usual propensity for expensive handbags back home and it being the fastest way to level her S. Link, but w/e. She's still just glad she... gets to keep having him around for now.

The idea of losing someone so close to her over something so stupid and preventable... hell, if you thought she was bad about the idea of it when he died to save the world, she's even more stubborn about it right now.] We'll figure something out. For now I'm just... relieved. This's enough of a gift, I think.

[ At the end of the day, it was stupid and preventable...on his side. He'd been caught up in the moment and hadn't considered her feelings--which is something he had taken for granted. Too much of his attitude that things wouldn't matter so much this time around because he didn't have anything to go back to...well, it's not exactly true. Now is what he has with her and with everyone else, so he has to treat it as something special. Not borrowed time as he keeps thinking, but an opportunity.

The blush on her cheeks isn't bad either. He offers a small smile in return. ]

Do you want to just walk for a bit?

[couldntpullthetrigger]

[She's not expecting to look back up and find him smiling. It settles the blush in a little deeper, and she looks off to the side. Yeah, she's definitely not escaping him. If only he knew how many problems she had even after he was dead.] ... Yeah, l-let's do that. [Spending quality time? Sign her the fuck up.]
