Hel hummed to herself as she stepped out of her room, and wandered down the hall with a wrapped package in hand. The stone felt nice on her bare feet as she climbed the stairs to the fourth floor, and she was in a decent mood, all things considered. The ghoul came to a stop in front of a usually stoic grim reaper’s dorm and knocked.
Present time for Shun!

Shun actually wasn't in his room. Not yet at least. He was just returning from grabbing some food from the cafeteria. So when he saw Hel standing just outside of his door, he was mildly surprised.
"...I take it you need me for something?" he asked in a neutral tone. It was the only reason he could think of for why she would be just outside of his door and all. Also, it was just then that he noticed a sort of package in her hands, which brought a quirked brow to his features.

The reaper probably would have been standing there for quite a while, possibly entertaining the thought that Shun was ignoring her, until he appeared, yay! The ghoul grinned. “ Oh! There you are!” She announced rather pleasantly. “ Yes, I did need you for something, actually!” She held out the wrapped package to him. “ I know it is past Christmastival already…but ah…you know, better late than never, ya? Happy belated Christmastival! This is for you.” Once Shun unwrapped the package, he would find this:

There was a slight look of surprise upon his features as he took the wrapped package. He hadn't really expected to receive anything from Mitsu, nor did he expect any from any other students. It was a little strange really.
"Oh. Thank you.." he said, seemingly a little confused too. Carefully, he went ahead and unwrapped it, finding a leather bag within. It looked handcrafted, and it was pretty well made. Examining it, he soon turned his attention back to the winged Reaper.
"You ah.. didn't have to get anything for me," he said.

Shun? Surprised? Score.
“You are most welcome ~!” Hel chirped, resting her hands on her hips now as she watched Shun unwrap the package. It was kind of funny how carefully he went about it. Some things never change. As he examined it, she seemed to puff up with pride. “Ha! I know I did not, but I wanted to!” She grinned. “I made it for you because you are my friend!”

Those words were still a little weird for him to hear. Nodding quietly, he soon turned to the door to unlock it.
"One moment," he requested while stepping on in. Glancing around, he did manage to spot what it was he looked for. There was a small box sitting upon his desk. Grabbing onto it, he made his way back to the door, where he offered it to the Valkyrie.
"I suppose it is a good thing I got this then."

Hel blinked as Shun told her to wait, and the valkyrie leaned to watching him move about his room curiously.
When Shun came back with a small box and held it out to her, Hel nearly face planted. Shun had something for her!? What!? Did she die? The valkyrie did manage to catch herself, and took the small box with a wide eyed look. She stared down at it gob smacked. “…Am I allowed to open it now?”

While Hel basically had a double take, Shun was stoic-faced as usual. No glimmer of a smile or anything like that. But yes, he had gotten Hel a gift. And it seemed that he had done something rather surprising in doing so. Not that he could really blame her.
He wasn't generally a gift giver.
"I opened up mine in front of you did I not?" he asked with a raised brow.

At Shun’s answer, the reaper couldn’t help but snort in amusement. So Shun-like, like usual.
A smile came to Hel’s lips now, and curiosity was eating at her. What could have Shun gotten her…the ghoul opened the lid to the box and peered in. She took in the sight for a moment, before they lit up with excitement and a huge grin spread across her lips. It was a whetstone, and not only that, it was engraved with runes! Only a ghoul like Hel would be so delighted over receiving a gift like this. She was rather touched, actually. Not only was it a useful, meaningful gift, it also came from Shun.
Sadly, in her moment of happiness, she was not exactly in her right mind as she reached forward and pulled the grim reaper into a crushing, Nordic hug. She squeezed him for a moment before releasing him, and then stared down at the whetstone again. “This is amazing Shun! Thank you so much!”

Judging by that grin, Hel approved of the little gift. Though, Shun didn't think about the potential consequences here. Namely getting pulled into a big nordic hug. Tensing up immediately, he gritted his teeth, having half a mind to break away. Though, the Valkyrie released him pretty quickly, so there was no need for that.
"You're welcome," he grimaced, "Good to see that it was a suitable gift."
For someone who didn't really deal with these things, it seemed like he had a decent idea of what to get people.

“Heee.” Hel stared down at it for a moment longer before she replaced the lid over the box to keep it safe. She was pretty excited to start using it, actually! That would be for later though…not while she was in Shun’s present company.
“What have you been up to as of late, friend?” The reaper inquired curiously, not about to leave him alone apparently.

Recovering from the hug, Shun raised a brow at Hel, then shrugged.
"Nothing worth noting. Training. Staying vigilant. Spending time with Mitsu," he explained, "I assume it's been more or less the same for yourself?"

“Heh…yes…you could say that.” Hel replied, before snapping her fingers excitedly.
“Say, did Mitsu tell you!?” She started, grinning. “In our most recent battle, she did incredibly well! You’d be very proud!” Hel laughed. “She sprained my arm and rendered me unconscious!” Now usually Hel wouldn’t sound so happy about getting knocked out…but this was Mitsu who had done it to her. How could she not be happy about that?

That was a rather enthusiastic way of mentioning she got injured. Shun couldn't help but stare at her for her tone there. But, he was rather proud that Mitsu managed to do that. It meant she likely wasn't holding back.
"Ah good. Good. It sounds like she's getting better and going all out in a fight, regardless if it's against a friend or a foe," he nodded. He would have to spar with her some more himself.
"I take it your arm has healed since then?" he asked while looking to both her arms. They looked fine to him.

“Yes, very good!” Hel cheered. “Indeed she is, which is a big relief to see and hear.”
“Ah, yes!” Hel flexed both of her arms. “Luckily it was just sprained…” Broken limbs were quite a bother really, and they got in the way. “But all is well now…” The reaper trailed off for a moment, wiggling her fingers idly. “…Say…did you also hear about the uh…other events that happened on Christmastival Eve? OH! I also was told Roch approached you about…uh…a promise of sorts…?”
