There's no present or anything special accompanying his ( and Shigeo's, although the elder brings a gift, of course ) arrival. Ritsu gives him a nod of acknowledgement and a polite smile. "Happy Birthday, Reigen-san. Nii-san worked hard to find you something." Seems Reigen is safe from slander 1 day of the year- as long as he appreciates the gift of a crappy novelty tie.
Birthday Asks!!! <3
Like a bodyguard!! Reigen's face GAUNTS itself, but he clears his throat and it was as if the imagery were only imagined.
He sets aside the scratch tickets he'd gifted himself—sweeping away the peeled film by hand to make his desk clean and welcoming. Then offers a smile back, to both of his visitors. It does bring him joy to see the two, and Reigen has to wonder for himself what brought on his gut reaction.
"And here I was, just about to ask what brings you two to my office." (He's just going to purposefully gloss over the fact that one of them works here).
"Oh?" comes the question at seeing Ritsu is empty-handed. Reigen doesn't wait for an answer, however, just as quickly engrossed with the goodie the elder Kageyama brother DID bring, his expression readily shifting into happy anticipation, "thanks!"
It's a Crappy Novelty Tie. Reigen laughs in good humour, "I do wonder what kind of event I'll be wearing this to!"
WAIT!! — THE BODYGUARD — THE SUBTLE WORDING. THIS WASN'T A JOKE GIFT. Reigen sputters on his words. He DIDN'T make Mob cry but maybe he might as well have in Ritsu's eyes?!
"WELP! Today's a good day to wear it, it's just that kind of Special event, you know!! Come on, give me a hug!" Reigen tossed his old tie like it was the snake in this situation, already adjusting his new one before reaching his arms out for a hug. Mob. Now Ritsu. He opens his arms as well. Certainly there was no bad blood at all between the two now and the hug would be accepted! He was sure of it!! A birthday win for Reigen!
