[ayato's #1 priority is ayaka and ayaka always. her comfort is important to him, and he'd do anything to erase any discomfort she may find (including a little 🔪 you know if it calls for it). he's glad to see her slowly relaxing around him, glad to see that icy wall slowly dissolve.

even if he himself is mildly uncomfortable here, he will do whatever it takes to see her happy.]

I do suppose I will find myself with an abundance of free time. I'm not one to remain idle, but perhaps I could take the time to learn a thing or two about housework. Surprise Thoma should he ever arrive.

[burn a pan or two. overload the dishwasher. mix the colors and the whites. you know, just real malewife kinda stuff.]
