The most wonderful thing? Of all things she ever got? That was more than flattering for Mot, who's ears went a little red, rubbing his neck with a smile on his lips. To think he had done so well to make her such a gift. His pride swelled greatly.
He awaited her to test the instrument, and her reaction made him laugh out loud. It was more than obvious how pleased the ghoul was. It made Mot very happy. "I did good!" He exclaimed with a cheeky grin.
The cowboil was excited now, anxious to get the other gift Hel promised. "So! What's my other present?" He asked, a big expectant smile on his face.

Hel pulled up another finger, and played another note, just as delighted as she was before. At Mot’s cheeky statement, the ghoul just nodded her head enthusiastically, and holding the ocarina tightly in her hand, she lunged at the boil, wrapping her arms around his neck tightly. “You did amazing.” She pulled back a bit, blinking, and then scratched her cheek a bit sheepishly. Oh that’s right…er…damn. He seemed really excited about that. Hel placed the ocarina back on her lap in the leather cloth, and hesitated for a moment. “Ah…yes…”
Too late now.
The ghoul reached into her sleeve, fiddling around for a few moments before she pulled out two skellephone charms. They both looked the same, mimicking a Victorian type frame, but one had a portrait of a Lady skeleton, and the other had a portrait of a Sir skeleton. Hel was blushing now as she held out the charms to him in an open palm, and she kept her gaze down at the ocarina.

Amazing.
*O*
Mot eyes sparkled like stars, smiling childishly as Hel wrapped her arms around him. He held her back for a moment until she backed off, staring at the ghoul curiously as she seemed suddenly uncertain.
Honestly, almost anything she gave him would be received happily.
"Ooh!" The items she presented earned an impressed noise from the boil, picking up the Sir Skeleton and looking it over. "These are really cool cameos." Mot commented, dangling the charm in front of him. "What are they for?"

Hel glanced up at Mot, rubbing her cheek once more.
“…They are uh…they’re for…phones…” She honestly didn’t know if Mot was into that kind of thing. Sometimes around she’d seen ghouls with charms hanging off of their phones…friends who did the ‘best friends’ charms. When she saw these ones there was just such a strong impulse to buy them, with the intention of giving one to Mot and keeping the other one for herself. Secretly she thought it was…romantic.

Oh of course! Phone charms! "Let me get this straight; you're encouraging me to decorate my phone? My phone you always make fun of me for playing with?" He said with a cheeky grin. He giggled, looking them both over.
They weren't both for him, were they?
He had a thought.
"Is it like those His and Hers type of thing?" He asked curiously. He knew of BFF fad type merchandise after all. "So we can match?" The grim reaper liked this idea.

Oh, Mot was teasing her…but at least he wasn’t teasing her about what she thought he might.
Hel let out a soft, exasperated sigh. “Well…I doubt you’re getting rid of it anytime soon.” She teased. “So…it might as well be decorated, ya? Ah…yes…” Hel nodded her head. “…Yes…his and her charms…” Hel blushed bit more, and nodded her head again. Yes, so that they match.

Mot smiled fondly, his eyes twinkling just slightly. "Cool. I like it." He clasped the item tightly in his palm, looking at Hel with affection. "Thank you. You really cheered me up." Not just because of a couple of nice gifts, though they certainly helped. Hel just made all things better.
Mot looked down, stifling a yawn into his free hand. "Crazy night, hm?"

The valkyrie seemed relieved as she sat there next to him, clasping her own charm tightly before tucking it back into her sleeve for now. Once again, her hands ran over the ocarina and she smiled widely, before her brows furrowed. “…How did you know?” She never told anyone here at Amity she wanted one…
“…Oh!” The reaper smiled back at him, pleased to see the small twinkle. “…You are most welcome.” She was glad it worked, she was happy to see him feeling a bit lighter. As the conversation swung back around to the recent events though, Hel sobered up a bit. “…Indeed. Disconcerting as well…how was the school encased…that is what I want to know…and of course…by whom…” Hel ruffled her bangs and then sighed. “…Even I know those are not answers I am privy to tonight.”

Mot smiled, a hint of mischievousness behind his eyes. "Your mother told me."
The serious topic had Mot frown slightly. "I suppose we'll find out later. Rumors fly high in this school." One way or another, they would get their answers. The students always found a way to get the truth.
"Um.." Mot's cheeks went pink then, as a thought crossed his mind. "It's been dangerous lately, and after that strange fog during the last battle.. all those voices.." He seemed uneasy, yet shy then. Awful emories were there, but also a tmid request to come of it.
"I worry when you aren't near. So.. just for tonight, would you mind spending the night with me? I wish to keep an eye on you."

Hel looked rather startled at that. “What!? When?” She did not recall any sort of conversation like that between them at the Wedding…unless it happened while she was away? Hel pondered this for a moment.
“…Rumors…ah yes…I will keep my ears open.” Hel tilted her head as Mot seemed to start on another train of thought. She gave a nod of her head in regards to the dangerous part, and felt…well, touched when he said he worried about her. “…Heh, you do not need to worry about me Mot.” She assured, and then blushed a bit herself once the request came out. “…No, I don’t mind…of course I don’t mind…” She replied, glancing off to the side before looking back at him. “It means I can keep an eye on you too…” The valkyrie ran her thumbs over the ocarina once more before reluctantly wrapping it up and handing it back to Mot so that he could finish it at his leisure. “I’ll go get my bed roll.”

Mot chuckled, putting a finger to his lips. "Secret." Was he teasing? Oh you bet he was.
Bed roll? Mot pursed his lips, taking the ocarina back. "I can't have you sleep on the floor. I'll take your bed roll, and you get the bed. We could even spend the night in your room if that is the case." A gentlemen does not allow a lady to sleep on the floor when a bed is available. It was bad enough that he let it happen when he was injured.
He shifted, setting the instrument in his drawer. "It isn't as if I will sleep tonight anyway." That was a lie. He was dead tired, but that didn't always mean he was able to sleep.

Hel scowled at the answer. “No, not secret. When did you speak to her about that?” Damn it, withhold information and now Hel was dying to find out.
As Mot refused to let her sleep on the bed roll, Hel couldn’t help but roll her eyes. “This is going to turn into a battle, isn’t it Motty?” The ghoul scooted closer to the boil until she was pressed right against his side, and looked up at him from underneath her bangs. As much as she liked battling…she liked winning too. “…How about we save ourselves the effort and just sleep in the bed together?” Did she just bat her lashes too?

Awww this was bothering her! Mot grinned a toothy grin, eyes squinting playfully. He said nothing. Let her squirm a moment longer.
"Perhaps." Mot said with a soft chuckle. He just didn't feel right letting a ghoul sleep on the floor. His eyes cast down toward Hel as she scooted up close, eyes widening slightly.
Her proposal was at first surprising. And most of Mot screamed No! That was not proper behavior for a boil and ghoul. Then again.. they were a couple, as it were. It wasn't as if they were going to do anything. Mot couldn't even think of kissing Hel without panicking. It was a wonder he'd managed to do it backstage during the play.
Still, his cheeks flushed, brows knit together in worry. "That..." He seemed to struggle with the idea for a while. ".. I suppose it would make it easier to keep an eye on you.. it is a suitable compromise."

“Moooooot.” Hel whined. “When did you talk to her?” She made a deep frown.
The valkyrie seemed amused as Mot struggled with her suggestion, and watched him through her lashes until he more or less consented. Still, she decided to be a brat about it. “Aw, it is only because you can keep an eye on me? Not because you want to?” Hel rolled her head against his shoulder for a minute before springing to her feet. “I’m gonna go get ready, I’ll be back!”
The valkyrie wandered back out then, maybe eager to get out of the dress and into her sleep clothes.

"I wrote her a letter during the last break. When I was at home." He admitted finally. petting her head. "I wanted to know of a gift to give you, and she replied."
Her teasing made him go redder. Honestly? He did kind of want to stay in the same bed. Despite his fear of intimacy, a braver part of him liked being close to the ghoul.
Luckily she didn't wait around for an answer.
"Ah..." Shoot. He wanted a picture of her in that dress! Mot frowned. He'd just have to get her next time. So he simply sat there cross legged under a pile of blankets, his face feeling a little hot.
