[For one, Ryuji is a horrible gift-receiver, but he loves giving people stuff, no matter how much or how little he has. Seeing people smile is almost always a good way to cheer him up, no matter how rough the goings are at the time. So, Kaede definitely didn't need to do anything for him in return, and he's not really expecting it. It's also not surprising, what with Kaede's amazing detective (...) skills, that she'd figure out it was him soon enough, so when he hears the raucous shout of his name come straight out of her lips, he freezes in place, and smirks to himself.]
Shit... I've been caught.
[Mumbled pretty much to himself, he crosses his arms and closes the distance between them. He doesn't have much to help her with... well, anything relating to the time she spent in captivity. He knows that he can only make it up to her afterwards and create better memories to try and outshine the otherwise crappy ones.]
'Ey. You look pretty energetic today, didja get an extra cup of coffee this mornin'?
[Playing coy is for people who actually know how to play coy. Ryuji is not one of those people.]
[It's mumbled, because her whole face is pressed into his shoulder as she wraps him in that hug. Really, a hug from her should be considered a gift in and of itself.]
Thank you for the, um, the metrognome. [She makes sure to pronounce the 'g' just a little with a quiet laugh before drawing back from the hug and clasping her hands behind her back.]
I wasn't expecting anything... I don't have anything really big to give you that even comes close to how special that is.
[Kaede hugs are pretty great, and Ryuji does feel rightly blessed at this moment. It's awful, though, he's constantly touch starved, and welcomes this open armed and whole-heartedly. There's a ghost of a confident smirk at the curl of his lips when he hears that extra "g" in metrognome. Wouldn't have it any other way, to be honest.]
Hell yeah, I'm glad you like it.
[Knowing that music was the cornerstone of her everything made figuring out a gift for her not... really that hard. It was the extra Sakamoto touch to it that pulled off the regular levels of absurdity with his extra passthrough on it.]
Wh--- dude, it's cool! You don't gotta do anything for me. I know you had a pretty shitty month with everything that went down, so like... if it makes you a little happy, then I'm happy.
