Chie, Yukiko, And Wagner Being Surprised By Their S/O For Their Birthday And Them Also Finding Out Their

Chie, Yukiko, and Wagner being surprised by their S/O for their birthday and them also finding out their S/O is a master at cooking and baking? (Honestly they need an s/o who can cook since canonically they all suck at it.)

Fun fact, I almost had this ask finished by but my fucking browser crashed and I lost everything. God fucking dammit.

-Chie's cooking had...improved a bit at least, though that would be rather generous. People weren't in danger of going catatonic from it, but it was just bland.

-She tended to end up using so many flavors at once that they all cancelled each other out and made something completely flavorless, almost like eating water.

-You thankfully were not nearly as helpless, so much so that you ended up being assigned to making the cake for her party that the rest of the IT were throwing for her. Yukiko and Rise were rather disappointed they couldn't do it but the boys all breathed a collective sigh of relief.

-What you end up making isn't good, it's really good. The aforementioned ladies weren't even mad about it anymore once they had a taste of it for themselves. Chie especially was happy about it, and proud to call herself your girlfriend in that moment.

-She definitely knows who she's relinquishing cooking duty to when you eventually get a place together.

-Until that time comes though, expect to get a lot more requests from her to make her lunch most days. It'd be a reason for her to look forward to school now.

-Yukiko was in a similar situation to Chie in regards to her cooking skills, or lack thereof. Thankfully she's pretty aware of it and is trying to improve, as much of a mixed bag as that is sometimes.

-You'd suggested spending a day at the Amagi inn together to celebrate her birthday, let her relax and take advantage of it's services for once and not have to worry about taking care of guests.

-Naturally given your hobby, you end up doing some cooking beforehand, making a nice homemade dinner for both of you to enjoy. Yukiko had known you were a cook but hadn't yet had the chance to try for herself.

-The moment Yukiko puts the fork to her mouth she instantly gushes about how good it is, quite the contrast to her own skills. She very quickly scarfs if down despite her attempts to control herself.

-She then has the spontaneous idea to make a date out baking cookies together using the inn's kitchen with you teaching her how along the way.

-She has some...interesting ideas to say the least. Mostly not in a good way. Odd ideas for ingredients/flavors to use, wrong ideas about how to use kitchen equipment, and everything in between.

-You nearly have a heart attack when she suggests setting the oven to a higher temperature so that they bake faster. You just barely manage to talk her out of it so that she doesn't start a fire, knowing damn well what she would do if left unchecked.

-Wagner had been fully aware for a while now that cooking was not her forte, after several failed attempts. She knew it was for the better not to try again as well.

-Despite her snide attitude, she learned to be grateful for anyone who provides food for her, and an S/O who can cook quality scratch meals is definitely an important box to be checked for her in a relationship.

-Her birthday rolled around and you decided to make something a little extra special for her. Using your experience you used an entire week taking what you learned cooking in general and about what she liked best in a dish to make what you felt would be her new favorite food.

-Wagner was a big fan of tempura in particular so that was your focus. Opening up the box with the food inside, she could feel her stomach rumbling as she looked at it.

-She'd heard many times before that cooking was a labor of love. An activity that one continued to get better at when they cooked for the people they cared about. By that logic how much you loved her was practically palpable in every bite.

-As you go about the rest of the day together celebrating her special day, she still can't get that food off her mind. She's not exactly one to admit things out loud too much of the time, but she does sincerely admit how grateful she is.

-What she can't seem to figure out how to communicate though is that it might just be the best damn thing she's eaten in her life, and that really says something considering the type of lifestyle she was born into. She's absolutely going to request you recreate that recipe more often.

Rest well, king. Your duty is done.

(Also happy birthday y'all, hope your day's gone well so far)

You bet your ass I'm resting. Getting some food from a top tier Korean bbq place today and Oppenheimer rented out. Life is good now.

noel accidentally forgetting her s/os birthday and trying to do something last second

The poor, sad sap.

-A strange feeling had been weighing on Noel's mind for a while now. The feeling you get when you're forgetting something important but can't figure out what it is.

-She'd been trying to find something to help her relieve this feeling, and it came in the form of official documents.

-She'd been doing paperwork and came across personal info for a few NOL officers, including you. Taking a peek at your birthday, it appeared to be coming up this Friday.

-Oh no...

-It was Wednesday...

-Noel feels like having a panic attack on the spot upon the realization that she'd completely forgotten her own S/O's birthday up until now. It's...a while until she can breathe normally again.

-Her first instinct is to immediately go to Tsubaki and Makoto for help, there was no way she could do this on her own. Hopefully they can give some helpful advice.

-Makoto's first instinct upon learning that your birthday is nearly here is to go balls to the wall with a huge ass birthday party. Tsubaki has to bring her back down to Earth since there's not nearly enough time for that and everyone on base is too busy.

-The three spend a while bouncing ideas back and forth. Should she cook for you? Absolutely not unless she wants to murder you, but the others don't tell her that, just saying to put a pin on it for now.

-A ring? No, this is your birthday, not a marriage proposal. Some other nice piece of jewelry? Potentially. Fancy recreational place like a fair or concert that might be happening? Never can go wrong with that.

-Internally, the idea of sharing one of the poems she's written about you comes up, only to be quickly shot down. If you ever read one of her poems with knowledge she wrote it about you and for you, she would overheat of embarrassment.

-Eventually it's decided to be a fancy dinner at a place per Tsubaki's suggestion along with a special gift of a solidly nice necklace with your birthstone.

-Your jaw damn near drops once you show up to the place and you immediately feel guilty for indirectly making Noel feel like she had to go all out like this for your birthday. However she's surprisingly insistent that it's really no problem. How she managed to pull it off you don't know but if she's telling you not to worry in front of a such a nice place you're definitely not complaining.

-It's a good middle ground of being able to eat some nice food Noel provides you with while not instantaneously and haphazardly throwing you onto death's doorstep and praying to whatever God of your choosing that it doesn't answer. The impeccable atmosphere of a balcony view over the city of Naobi is also a very nice bonus.

-After indulging yourself in such fine dining that would give you a heart attack on the spot if Noel had let you see the bill, she takes you over to a park nearby, taking in the fresh, crisp night air on a relaxing stroll. No one there, just you and the lady you felt so unbelievably lucky to call yours.

-And just when you felt you couldn't possibly by more lucky, Noel seemingly out of nowhere pulls out a gorgeous, custom made necklace featuring your birthstone front and center.

-You would've never guessed she'd put such a thing together in merely two days, even if she had some help, and you probably don't ever find out. You let her put the necklace around your neck before being unable to help yourself but bring her into a passionate kiss of pure joy, nearly taking the poor thing's breath away.

-Noel's caught completely off guard, embarrassed, and blushing like mad, but the smile on her face outshines any star you could look up and point to right now.

Headcanons/one-shots of Bullet and Kokonoe celebrating their S/o birthday.

Also happy belated birthday.

You KNOW these two never got proper, normal birthdays. Big yikes.

-Bullet...never had a traditional birthday that most people would want to have. Her mercenary group didn't really do that.

-She did however want to do something for yours when it eventually rolled around the first time since you started dating. However figuring out how to do this from nothing was easier said than done, especially someone of her...personality type.

-Gifts were supposed to be commonplace on birthdays so she figured that was as good a place to start as any. Problem is, she didn't really know kind of gift what was appropriate.

-After much deliberation and some asking around in a very...Bullet kind of way, she settles on a book relating to something you'd particularly shown a lot of interest in.

-She can't shake the feeling of awkwardness and nerves of giving you something, feeling the pressure now more than ever that she was actually doing it.

-You know full well Bullet really tried her best to do something nice for you despite not knowing what birthdays are typically like. You make your gratefulness as apparent as you can, making her let out a breath she didn't know she was holding in relief.

-You thought Bullet's birthday cluelessness was bad? Well at least she had people who cared about her to spend them with. Kokonoe on the other hand...yeah.

-You are not getting a party, you'd have better luck jumping into shark infested water with pork chops in your pants. Being the pragmatist she is, Kokonoe thinks all the hooplah to be a waste of time and money, she has far more important things to be doing.

-She's not cruel though, she's not going to ignore the day entirely. Like Bullet, she'll commemorate the day in a very...'her' way.

-She likely cooks up some kind of weird, never-before seen gadget just for you that she knows you can use in some way, for self defense, missions, or some miscellaneous use.

-Being a scientist, she's a very practical person. Whatever you get is something she knows for a fact you'll be using frequently, not some sentimental bullcrap that'll just collect dust somewhere in your house.

-If she's feeling nicer than usual, she'll also throw in some chocolates from her personal stash in there as well. Collecting the stuff is a hobby for her, one of the only ones she has so it's definitely guaranteed to be the good stuff.

-Once you're alone with her she'll present her gift to you and attempt to casually play it off, but her inexperience is obvious in both her body language and the subtle, soft coloration on her face. It's actually pretty cute, but don't point that out to her.

Request(Blazblue): On the day of their birthday's Makoto, Noel, Tsubaki, and Mai's S/O's back them their favorite dishes (Mai's S/O even asking Noel to help them cook for her).

I am so sorry if this gets repetitive, that's kinda how it goes sometimes for 4 character requests. Probably gonna be a bit shorter than usual.

-It doesn't take much to figure out what kind of food Makoto likes. Not only does her heritage make it pretty obvious but she's also quite the foodie in general.

-She doesn't have any particular favorite food but she is a big sweets gal, and of course being a squirrel, nuts are a personal favorite of hers. There are plenty of dishes out there that meet both those criteria, you have options.

-Eventually the idea you decided on was a chestnut parfait. Sweet, easy to make, had nuts, and had fruits to make it at least somewhat healthy. The perfect plan.

-When lunch eventually rolls around you head up to Makoto and present it to her while wishing her a happy birthday. Her mouth almost starts to water right then and there.

-She scarfs it down at record speeds that are frankly a bit concerning. She certainly enjoyed it though judging by her smile and the way her tail couldn't seem to stop wagging.

-As soon as she's done her arms wrap around you immediately in an enthusiastic showing of thanks. She's absolutely going to ask you for more in the future.

-Noel's not too much of a foodie, she absolutely prefers to cook instead of eat, much to everyone's dismay.

-However her birthday happens to fall on Christmas, so you have as good of an excuse as any to make something for her. A traditional Christmas dish could fulfill your needs well.

-You spend hours toiling away in the kitchen, making a nice, full meal for the both of you to enjoy. You figured it'd be a nice thing to do for both of you since work in the NOL has left you both unfortunately unable to go home for Christmas.

-Mercifully, your workload is at least greatly lightened for the day if not outright eliminated entirely. As soon as you're done with what little you have to do and evening comes you invite Noel over to your place, not telling her the reason.

-The first thing Noel is met with is a table filled with steaming hot food, leaving her unable to hold back her shock that you'd go so far for her.

-She doesn't know whether to kiss you or dig right in, however her nervousness gets the best of her and she opts to go for the food, which is by no means a bad choice. The effort and love you put into it really shines through.

-Mission success. Now all that's left is to pray to whatever God will listen that she doesn't get the urge to return the favor...

-Tsubaki is a sucker for chocolate, as much as she tries not to let it get to her. It gets to the point that Jin of all people worries about her in this regard.

-Her birthday just so happens to coincidentally fall on White Day, so you'd likely already be getting her chocolate anyway. The problem is having both occasions on the same day sorta ups the pressure on your part to perform.

-You eventually decided the best way to fill the criteria for both was via chocolate cake. You didn't want just some simple, easy cake from a box anyone could make, you knew she deserved better.

-Then you had an epiphany. You could indeed churn out something worthy of such a lovely lady. After spending a good amount of time in the kitchen you end up with a chocolate cake sweetened with condensed milk along topped with caramel and whipped cream. Surely this would pay off.

-Tsubaki's eyes light up as soon as she sees the fruits of your hard labor, even more so once she takes the first bite. She is practically in heaven. It felt like she was falling for you all over again.

(Can't believe it took this long to finally write for Mai. Though I'm writing this last minute on late night April 21st so what can you do lmao)

-It's rather tough for you to pin down what sort of food Mai would like considering her...complicated relationship with food.

-Whatever you do see her eat, it's completely mangled beyond recognition by whatever the hell Noel does whenever she cooks. You don't know, and frankly you don't think you want to.

-However this is going to turn out to be a nice boon for a change. Not being able to cook for Mai was a serious point of grief for you due to her supertaste, but with Noel around you can finally do so. She immediately agrees to the plan.

-After some discussion about what she typically makes for Mai and what she seems to like best, you two decide on a seafood pilaf. You'd make the base since you wanted to contribute at least something to the dish, and let Noel take it from there.

-Frankly it's a bit scary, leaving her with a perfectly normal dish and then getting it back looking like a weapon of mass destruction. This weapon of mass destruction though was all Mai could eat so you really can't complain. (Not complaining about Noel's cooking...what the hell have you come to...?)

-Mai's grin is practically ear to ear as she eagerly eats everything down, especially once she hears that both you and Noel worked on the dish. As far as she's concerned this is the best damn thing she's ever eaten, thanking you both with a big smile and hug. Being able to eat after what happened is always a treat.

-You still have no idea what Noel does to any food she touches to make it end up the way it does, but perhaps it's one of those mysteries that's just best left unsolved.

Request (P3): For their birthdays, Minako and Mitsuru's S/O's give them a ring that matches their favorite colors.

Best girl bullshit, go.

-Even before you started dating Minako, it's not hard to figure out what her favorite color is. Pink manages to sneak into every single one of her outfits and just about everything she owns.

-You're pressed for ideas for whatever reason so you decide a ring with a nice pink gemstone is the best way to go here. A nice rose quartz or pink amethyst is...affordable enough.

-One the day of, you take her out to eat, wherever she wants, as long as the price is within reason. You're still a high school student.

-In general you two have a nice hangout date at the Paulownia mall, doing whatever catches your or her eye. When the day has blazed by and the sun sets, signaling it's time to head home.

-You manage to remember at the last minute that you'd gotten her something, making you call out to stop her before she heads to her dorm, only for her to turn around and see the ring.

-Minako gasps audibly, clearly not expecting something so intricate and beautiful, however cheesy it may be.

-Next thing you know she's got you in a hug threatening to expel all the air from your lungs saying thank you over and over again as if you're about to disappear if she lets go.

-She immediately puts the ring on and silently vows to herself to never take it off like it's some kind of wedding ring. Probably treats it like one too until you get her one for real someday.

-Mitsuru is...a lot harder to impress on a date at first glance. Having been born into wealth as massive as she has tends to give off that kind of vibe.

-Of course you know better than that, being her S/O but the pressure isn't entirely gone, unfortunately. It's pretty easy to get into your own head when it comes to someone like Mitsuru.

-You do come up with something though. You find a nice ring in a window display while walking home one day embedded with a very beautiful shade of red that immediately brings Mitsuru to mind. Perfect.

-You manage somehow to save up enough money to get the ring and all that's left is...just about everything else. Fantastic.

-You eventually decide on something she's never really had before, something only you can give. You admit you can never impress her externally with something fancy, so the best option is something more intimate, which she pretty much never got growing up.

-After school it's cuddling up in a blanket with an old classic movie she'd probably never heard of before. A very cozy atmosphere she'd pretty much never experienced before meeting you.

-Of course, to top it all off, your present her with the ring afterward. It's nowhere near as extravagant or photogenic as something she could just buy herself, but the fact that it comes from you makes it extra special.

She's much more reserved than Minako in expressing her thanks, but she is by no means any less grateful, the smile she can't seem to wipe off her face and the way she pressed her body further into you is clear proof of that.
