[To be an expert in every medical field is certainly an accomplishment, and Oda looks passably impressed. Into the curio shop they go, immediately met with a bookshelf full of strange topics. Oda scans the spines, spotting everything from "Hatching & Raising Dragons" to "Flora of the Dream Garden". He's spoiled for choice.]
[ Nnnnnnot the one about hatching and raising dragons. Their house is already a little crowded with the two of them, Hana and part-time Marshmallow. If Akira learned how to get a little dragon, he probably would.
He plucks the other book instead, flipping through it curiously. ]
When I first got here, he was trying to make medicine out of the plants in the garden. Something like this might help with that!
[ ... ]
I guess it's kinda hard to get him something that he won't use for his work in some way...
[Well. Haruaki is clearly very insistent on this gift. Oda...doesn't really understand the concept of giving someone a gift you then have to make up for, but... he supposes it's really none of his business who gives Akechi what.
[Still, he...scratches the back of his head, uncertain.]

[Nothing wrong with 'em. Oda picks up the book. This gift-buying shit is easy.]
You mentioned wanting help with Akechi's gift too. I'm not sure how much I can really tell you, though...
no subject
Too bad Haruaki's gift can't be bought at a store like this. ]
It's okay, I have other ways of getting this information... I was just wondering if you knew Akechi-kun's waist circumference!
no subject
Why would I know something like that?
[Why would Haruaki need to know something like that?]
Are you getting him a belt?
no subject
[ And that's all he'll say. ]
Unless you can think of something else he'd like?
[ He's not changing what he's getting Akechi. ]
no subject
Not a seifuku...
Right?
[Surely not. Not Akechi Goro.]
no subject
Maaaaaaaaybe~

Abe-sensei... I don't think he's going to like that.
no subject
[ Maybe. ]
What else do you think he likes?
[ Implying that he likes sailor uniforms at all... ]
Books too, right? He comes to me for lessons a lot.

[Still, he...scratches the back of his head, uncertain.]
Ah... Yeah. He likes books too. Smart kid.
asdlkjfsdlkj god we can wrap
[ His eyes are practically sparkling as he says it. ]
Thank you, Odasaku! You're so wise!!!
jfjsdlfkj wrapt...
[Ah, well. Akechi can handle his own conficts, Oda's sure.
[(It's a little funny... Just a little...)]
Yeah. No problem.
