Summary: Bandou finally got up the guts to ask out Kirigiri. And she said yes!
Rating: PG I guess?
Log:

[ When he first saw Mikoto's post attempting to get him a date, Bandou was afraid that would have killed any chance he had with Kirigiri before he'd even asked her out. But when she actually replied and didn't seem put off at all, he went for it. Now they're meeting up for ice cream, and Bandou couldn't be in a better mood.

Remembering what she told him about having a bunch of rowdy Eevee's, Bandou pulls his gear out - sending her a quick message that he's outside. His "dating instructor", Rise, insisted he lose the extra layers he's always sporting, so today he's simply in a plain red t-shirt paired with his usual skinny white jeans. No hoodie - not even his giant sunglasses. It feels a little odd, but it's worth it to get to spend the afternoon with Kirigiri. ]

hey,
im outside whenever youre ready.
didnt wanna get the eevees all worked up.

Threaded | Flat

[Fortunately for everyone concerned on the Eevee front, the fair warning gives Kirigiri plenty of time to head downstairs, check on the status of the horde, and slip out the back door while they're all preoccupied with swarming around indoors, as they typically do this time of day.

Admittedly, she'd been tempted to fuss over her own appearance for all of about thirty seconds when she'd still been upstairs, but ultimately somewhere amid the fussing she'd ended up deciding that it was due more to a weird sense of anxiousness than any particular desire to fuss, and so when she comes around the side of the house, it's pretty much as she's usually dressed — jacket, skirt, boots, and ever-present gloves. There are, however, a pair of sunglasses perched on her head with the supports tucked behind her ears, and she's bringing a bag with shoulder straps that wears like a very small backpack by way of a purse.]

Bandou-kun.

[He's probably expecting her to come out the front door, so she waves slightly and speaks up as she comes around from the backyard, hoping to get his attention early and avoid any awkwardness.]

...Making my escape through the back door was just easier.
