Midnight Bunnies

I’m Kira Sumeragi… of HE★VENS.

I will answer… the 5th question.

Question from Yamato: Food you’ve been particularly fond of lately.

It's white asparagus. This is actually… the peak season for it.

It was listed as a recommendation at the restaurant... so I decided to give it a try. 

A fresh, tender… texture.

A rich and creamy hollandaise sauce...

They complemented each other perfectly... and it was delicious.

When it comes to food... I tend to go along with what others want.

But... I thought it was nice… to enjoy the flavors unique to this season like this.

Question from Nagi: New Things You’d Like to Try in the Future.

Western-style sword fighting.

My long-held wish came true…I've already experienced… an authentic, large-scale sword fight using a Japanese sword.

And... in the role of a brilliant swordsman.

Next... I want to refine my Western-style sword fighting even further.

A saber... or perhaps a longsword. 

I want to swing… something like that with all my might.

For the day to come... I’ll make sure to train hard.

A Message to Angel.

To Angel... what kind of person do I want to be?

Taking this opportunity... I decided to give it some thought again.

An irreplaceable person.

The most... important person.

…The source of happiness.

But all I could think of… were selfish things.

Will you... forgive me?

Please accept this love I’m giving you… with everything I have.

Just for you. For you only.

It was a wonderful… birthday present. 

Everything... was fun.

…Thank you.

I’m Kira Sumeragi… of HE★VENS. Let's continue.

Question from Van: Things You’d Like to Do Together as a Group.

Creating the lyrics for HE★VENS’' song… in a different way than usual.

For example... we would share only the broad themes… and then each person would write their own complete drafts.

Afterwards, we’d draw lots... to combine the different ideas.

It’ll look… quite different from usual.

I'll take a new approach… to my singing style, too.

…

The correct answer might be, "I want to sing with the seven of us."

Question from Shion: Something a HE★VENS members said recently that made you happy.

Eiichi said to me... “Kira really is someone you can count on!”

I anticipated what he wanted… and handed him the materials.

…He was happy about it. 

I always hope… to be like that.

That’s why...those are the words I want to hear again and again.

Well... if that became the norm... would people really bother mentioning it?

In that case... let's aim to avoid having that said.

The time has come… for it to end.

🔗 show us your rings! if your selfship didnt use rings, what did your selfship use to officiate the bond?

Soooo there is a story to this lol, more in the IRL side. I had actually wanted to buy a ring IRL to symbolize our wedding ring, but I didn't have the money to buy an actual expensive one so I tried to find a nice looking one that was cheap. It had a purple heart and blue-green around it, so it at least at JenKira purple-blue colors.

But when I received it, it was not as bright as the picture showed and I was disappointed but also not that surprised since it was very cheap. I also bought the wrong size so it is slightly big on my finger where it can slip off so... wasted my money on that lol. I didn't buy any more after that.

So for now, I treat Kira's ring (from the Christmas merch that is super rare to get now) as both the proposal and wedding ring lmao. In the some of the JenKira fanarts, you can see me wear this ring. I do wish I gave a different ring as the wedding one, but I'll let it slide for now lol.

🎵 what was your selfships wedding song? lets have a listen!

For sure "Dazzling darling" was played, but also "Negai Hana" by Oodana (CV: Konishi Katsuyuki), a character song from Kakuriyo -Bed & Breakfast for Spirits-.

I love this song so much and I feel this song could be sung by Kira so beautifully too. The lyrics are so comforting. Here's a link to a fan-translation: https://www.tumblr.com/nanadesuyo/177580414248/kakuriyo-no-yadomeshi-character-song-%E9%A1%98%E3%81%84%E8%8A%B1

I’m Kira Sumeragi… of HE★VENS. Today… is my birthday.

…I will be taking on a special project.

I'm going to start answering the questions… I received from everyone in HEAVENS.

Now then… let’s begin.

Question from Eiichi: Places you’d like to visit on your day off.

Let’s see…

…“Home,” I suppose.

It’s a little different from a place “I’d like to visit”… but it’s where I’d want to be on my day off.

An aquarium where you could see the ocean and deep-sea creatures… was also on the list.

However… when it comes to choosing just one…it lacks a decisive factor.

I’m sorry… for the generic answer. Anywhere…else?

It’s a tour led by… deep-sea researchers.

Question from Eiji: Your Favorite Way to Relax.

It is “practicing Kintsugi*”

The other day… I broke the salad bowl I had made earlier.

I really liked it… so it feels like a waste to throw it away.

So I bought a beginner's kit…and gave it a try myself.

It took some time, but…I think it turned out better than before.

I don't know… when I'll be able to do it again.

But…it would be better if I didn’t have such an opportunity**.

…That is all. …To be continued.

*Kintsugi: Japanese art of repairing broken pottery by mending areas of breakage with lacquer mixed with powdered gold, silver, or platinum
