Kagemaru. Valentine's Day/Chocolate Collecting Festival Story 2023
Chapter 1
February 14.
MC looks at the counter with sweets and ponders what to get Kagemaru for the holiday.
(I know Kagemaru isn't interested in Valentine's Day, but I want to get something anyway.)
However, nothing at the candy store caught my eye.
(Come to think of it, Kagemaru doesn't like sweets).
Perhaps the girl would buy him alcohol, as always.
Suddenly Kagemaru's friend and associate, Zantetsu, entered the store.
He, on the other hand, is a lover of sweets.
MC and the guy froze in indecision.
They greeted each other. Zantetsu was seriously studying the boxes of sweets on the counter.
Small talk ensued. Eventually, the heroine helped Zantetsu pick out the sweets.
They went home together to the Senkitai* base.
MC: Well, I'm going to Kagemaru's room.
Zantetsu: Wait.
He gave her a candy for helping her choose.
Kagemaru showed up at the end of the corridor.
Kagemaru: ....I rarely see you two together.
Zantetsu: I just happened to meet her in town and came straight here. Well, I'll leave you to it.
The girl never bought a present for her boyfriend.
(Maybe I should ask him.)
But before she could ask a question, Kagemaru interrupted her.
Kagemaru: ...You, stay the night.
MC: ....Huh!?
(......W-what's wrong, suddenly?)
The heroine explains that no one knows where she went, she can't suddenly not show up at home. Kage annoyedly clicks his tongue.
However, the guy didn't force her anymore.
Kagemaru: ....Then you can at least eat. Go ahead, eat.
MC confusedly agrees. What does it all mean?
There were treats prepared in the great hall.
(Is it someone's birthday?)
Kagemaru: Is it good?
For some reason, Kagemaru asked this question while drinking alcohol.
MC: Yes, is it very tasty?
MC: Um, you're not eating?
Kagemaru: Watching you eat is enough for me.
(But I feel that Kagemaru's voice is softer than usual.)
(I wonder if something good happened...?)
Chapter 2
MC: I'm full.
Kagemaru: Well, if only I could eat that much.
After a hearty dinner, she became sleepy.
Kagemaru's face approached her with a faint smile.
Kagemaru: Don't you have something to give me, too?
Kagemaru's gaze is directed to the package of baked goods (?) she had just received.
The girl tells him what Zantetsu gave her for helping him pick out the sweets.
Kage's mood immediately soured.
Annoyed, Kagemaru pulled out his pipe and started smoking.
MC: Speaking of which, is it someone's birthday today?
Kagemaru: What?
MC: The food was great, so I thought it might be some kind of holiday...
Kagemaru: .... Are you serious?
The guy looks at the girl sullenly again. Suddenly his hand reached out to her and pulled her with all his might.
Kagemaru: That's enough. I think there must be a boundary to wrong assumptions.
Heroine still doesn't understand him.
Then the guy's grip gets even stronger.
Kagemaru: You're the one who makes a lot of noise every year about Valentine's Day.
He let her go.
MC: So these treats were my gift...?
Kagemaru: What else could it be?
The guy sighs irritably at the smoke.
Kagemaru: I knew you were slow and dull... But I didn't think you wouldn't understand.
Despite Kage's annoyance, the girl is happy.
To improve his mood, she asks what kind of gift he wants.
He hangs up the phone and brings his face closer to her.
Kagemaru: You know that without asking, right?
At times like this, she knew exactly what her boyfriend meant.
Kagemaru: What happened? Don't you understand?
The girl turned to face Kagemaru and worked up the courage to hug him gently with her arms.
MC: Please close your eyes.
Kagemaru: I decline.
Having worked up the courage, she gently kissed him on the lips.
Kagemaru: That's it? This is not a game for kids.
Kagemaru: It's not like you're thanking me for this food.
(This is absolutely ridiculous!)
Despite her embarrassment, she kissed him again...
(As Kagemaru always does...)
The girl remembered his gesture and deepened their kiss.
The heroine felt Kagemaru holding her tightly by the waist to keep her from running away.
At first the boy was confused, but then he took the initiative.
(I can't take it anymore!)
She barely had enough air.
Kagemaru: What is it? It's not like that.
Pushing the heroine in the shoulder, Kagemaru pushes her down.
Kagemaru: You're hopeless!
Despite such words, Kagemaru's face was happy.
1. ...Guys who followered me after February 2022 (when I started posting IkePri translations): 🤔😒🗿 What is this?
2. Unfortunately, AyaKoi in English stopped updating. But on the Japanese servers.... Paradise has come for me. My hubbies's new content.
3. In case anyone is just starting to read this and doesn't know what it's about. *Senkitai - A group of ayakashi and an Onmyoji that are against the Capital's Government.

Here's A Thought!
Ok, so I've been thinking about this LONG and HARD, but I think I'm finally ready to go through with it~! Since I'm back in my artsy phase again, and I wanna contribute a bit more...
So, whenever I have a ship, I usually come up with children designs. Because, I dunno, it's fun to make and I love the idea of family life. What I'm getting at, is I actually have planned child designs for the Ayakoi boys! Of course, the designs I have are more like the Ayakoi boys in appearence than their other parent since the other parent is MC and MC is supposed to be YOU (or an Oc if you do that too). It is a different story if I designed them with Futaba in mind and their appearences may alter.
I'm planning to maybe post those designs if anyone would like to see! For my main designs, they will have the opposite sex too. Some even have names! (Would I say they're my characters? Mmmmm.....They're more just designs, but I guess if I named them and such? I dunno!)
If this goes well, if anyone is interested, I could take lil requests and make a child design for your character and your preferred Ayakoi boy. Of course for that, later down the line, I would ask for refrences for such so I could get an idea. But if you'd like anything specific, albeit hair, eyes, markings, clothing (Could be traditional or modern), then I'd like that put down!
The designs I have made (and for requests (later down the line), will be between the ages 4 - 12 . So lil' kiddos!
So, whaddya think? Thank you and have a nice day!
