Merry Christmas to those of you who celebrate it! Here’s a related aspec snippet from one of my old fanfics!
(For a bit of context, this takes place during Haise’s Christmas party, in an au where Hide didn’t go into hiding after the Anteiku Raid and instead stayed at the CCG to be with Kaneki/Haise)
Haise and Arima left the room to talk in privacy. Hide knew they would be catching up, and that Haise would take the time to give Arima his Christmas present. So Hide decided to do something similar. He tapped Akira on the shoulder and walked her into one of their spare bedrooms.
"Don't tell the others, but I got you something too, Akira-san." Hide said. He pulled out a very small wrapped box and handed it to her.
"Aww, you didn't need to." She said, carefully taking it from him.
"And before you open it..." Hide began, and gave her a playful wink. "No romo."
Akira raised an eyebrow and giggled, and then opened her gift. It was a black ring. She tried it on, putting it on her right middle finger. It was the perfect size.
"You know what that is, right?" Hide asked.
"Of course I do. An Ace ring." Akira said as she admired it. "I was wondering why Kiyoko-san was asking me about rings..." She gave Hide a knowing look, followed by a hug. "Thank you, Nagachika."
