[Kaede didn't have a very restful sleep. She's almost gotten used to waking up in the middle of the night in a cold sweat from nightmares about the Academy, almost accepted it as part of her nightly routine. She'd thought maybe she was tired enough from the whole rescue, the hike back, everything she'd busied herself with all day, that maybe she could have a respite from the nightmares.
Not quite. Just new ones.
But when she wakes up, rolling over with a sigh to see a gift sitting next to her, she almost doesn't understand what it is at first. Even after opening it, it takes her a while to figure out where it could have come from. She doesn't know that many blonds, after all!
Fortunately Akechi recognized the handwriting and was able to point her in the right direction. Then a mad scramble to try to find something to give him in exchange, because she doesn't need to be a woodworker to know that something this mechanically complex (for this weird fantasy time period) couldn't have been cheap. If things had been like normal, she could have gotten him a proper gift. If she'd had more time...
It feels like she'd missed out on a lot, being locked in her cell.]
Sakamoto-kun!!
[She finally does track him down after they've all returned to base, trying to wave him down. Wave him down, then wrap him in a tight hug. She doesn't usually hug boys very often, but with the gift of metro(g)nome, Ryuji's joined that group.]
