True Love, Chocolate. (sorry if this sends more than once.. my internet was being weird and didn’t say it sent.)

true love: do you believe in love at first sight? 

“Yes and no. I believe that there are several different types of love, and that human beings experience several of them at any given time, but they, like most things in life, are cyclical in nature and overlap from time to time but not always. Love at first sight could be something in the way of physical attraction, a compatibility of spirit, an instant connection of some kind, kismet, etc… and those are forms of love, but are they true love? That depends on your definition, I suppose. Romantic love, I think is typically a combination of several other types of love… but it is not necessarily better or worse than any other…

"Can people ‘fall in love’ at first sight? Certainly. Will it last? That depends on the individuals. Has it happened before? I’m certain that it would be easy to find several instances where this is, indeed, the case. But there would probably be four or fives times as many where it has not lasted, or has been one-sided, or a variety of other such things…

"Relationships are complicated. They take a lot of work to create and maintain. To rely on only one factor of love, especially when it comes to the aforementioned cycles often results in a spark that fizzles and burns out. But, coupled with time, compatibility, friendship, etc… that sort of love can grow into something more sustainable."

date: do you think age differences are a big deal?
heart: talk about your crush

“Ah, well, they are a person of many talents… who is very passionate and driven, with a wonderful heart and mind. They’re strong. Athletic. So incredibly cunning and clever… and, god, attractive… H- ah, they have the most charming smile, too… sort of a witty, mischievous grin that they wear when they’re getting away with something — which is most of the time — and they completely own it. Confident. Brilliant. Deep…”

“Aha, I could probably go on and on about them…”

Nervously, Ran swept a strand of hair from her face. She held a package wrapped in red paper, tied with a silver bow. Within the box she had placed the homemade chocolate she’d made the night before. Taking a deep breath, she handed the box to the Detective. “Happy Valentine’s Day.”

“Ran… Thank you very much.” He accepted the box with both hands, and bent over to place a kiss on her cheek first, then her lips. Soft, careful, sweet. “Happy Valentine’s to you, too, darling. Now, you’ll get your return gift from me on White Day, but I didn’t want you to be without today, so…" 

He transferred the box to he one hand, then dug in his suit jacket pocket with the other, and offered a tiny, plush unicorn. "It’ll make more sense, later. Shall we go to dinner now~?”

“…They’re classmates. And I know every one of them by name. Why should I worry about getting chocolate from them? I wasn’t the only one, so I don’t see any real reason to get suspicious of getting something sweet.”

“I’d have thought that everyone behaving very much out of the ordinary would have struck you as odd, Kuroba-kun… after all, this was something that was clearly pre-planned that you weren’t involved in. Does this happen often to you? You seem the sort to need to be abreast of every new development and the center of attention for every event.

"Regardless, I’ll end your suffering now. February 14th, the day that the girls (and a handful of boys) brought chocolate is known as Valentine’s Day. In the Western world, this is the day when people of all ages celebrate their relationships with others… It’s typically reserved for romantic and/or intimate love, but many choose to likewise show appreciation for their friends and family members, as well. In many ways, it’s similar to how the Japanese celebrate Christmas – as a holiday for couples and the hopeful lovers.”

“But while anyone can give a Valentine gift (flowers, cards, chocolates, stuffed animals, etc) to anyone else in the west, the custom in Japan (and some other Asian countries) is for the girls to give tribute to the person that they like in hopes that their love will be accepted and returned on White Day – March 14th. This is usually in the form of a gift of some sort… white chocolate, cookies, and marshmallows are popular choices among students, jewelry, white lingerie, and so on for adults. 

"So you see, for the romantic, Valentine’s Day is the question – will you please be mine? – and White Day is the answer – yes or no respectively, with appropriate gift or horribly crushing silence. 

"That said, like Valentine’s Day elsewhere, it is not strictly for lovers, particularly in modern day. "Courtesy chocolate” can be given to anyone, and is common among friends, colleagues, associates, etcetera.“

"You’ve now been informed about Valentine’s Day, Kuroba-kun, and the subsequent implications therein. I hope that you take it to heart; it’s not something that should be treated so lightly. After all, it’s likely that many of the chocolates that you were given were hand-made by those lovely young ladies, and if they never received anything from you on White Day, well… I’m certain you can guess what that means.”

When you return from work and step into your bedroom, the first thing your gaze locks onto are the three red roses on your desk and, next to them, a white, heartshaped chocolate box. And, resting gently between the flowers, is a small, simple card;

Happy Valentine’s Day, detective~

Have you figured out the messages I sent with the other roses yet? Though there’s a number of them, they shouldn’t be too difficult to spot~

Hugs and kisses and love,
