[Another White Day in Luceti. Though Adell has come to think that Valentine's Day works better as a universal holiday, there's one thing that can be said about White Day: most likely, he'll be in his right mind and not messed with by experiments, leaving him free to do what he needs to do. This White Day won't be quite as busy in terms of numbers as the last one, thankfully. There's only two people really on his mind for this one.
So, throughout the early part of the day, morning and early afternoon, he's out doing some shopping, stopping in the general store and the flower shop, to get the various things he needs for his plan. He can be seen in the village any time during that phase. Clearly he's up to something.
After he's done running his errands there, he'll disappear for awhile, then return back home to House 44. Housemates can catch him there. He's looking for Luka at first, to give her a gift of homemade chocolate and a bouquet of freshly cut red and pink flowers, mostly as a gift to show his appreciation and care for her. If she tries to hide from him, he'll leave them in her room on her nightstand.
But his final leg of his plan involves Charlotte, and he's off to find her a little while before sunset.]

[Action]
Fine, as usual. You look energetic.
[Action]
Just been a busy day today. Training, then errands. But I'm feelin' pretty good.
[He's excited. And he has plans that he's looking forward to, considering the day.]
[Action]
Errands?
[Action]
Had to get together a few things. Today's kind of an important day.
[Action]
[March 14. She racks her mind for the appropriate answer.]
[Action]
[Action]
It's supplementary to Valentine's Day . . . or so I heard.
[Action]
...Though I don't mind doing nice things on both, personally.
[Action]
. . . So your errand involves returning the favor from a month ago. [A pause. She's pretty sure of who Adell is going to give something to. Isn't it obvious?]
[Action]
Yup. It's a surprise, though... so don't go saying anything to anyone, all right?
[Action]
[Action]
[He pauses and thinks for a moment.]
...Actually. I made some extra chocolate. Would you like some?
[Action] 1/2
Chocolate?
[Action]
[It's the polite thing to do, and -- it makes her feel pretty good.]
[Action]
[Adell steps back inside his room. Sitting on his desk, are... well, several tins of chocolates. Really, he shouldn't have used the same recipe as he did last year. He made way too much. He picks up one of the larger ones and holds it out to her.]
...Hopefully it should taste okay. I'm not a chef or anything, but I did my best.
[Action]
I'm sure it'll be fine. Did you follow the recipe properly?
[It's more a question for himself than for her -- as long as he did, it should taste okay. A recipe's what she assumes he used, anyway.]
[Action]
[He laughs a little sheepishly.]
...Though that's why I ended up with so much. I forgot to fraction it down. But I didn't get any complaints from last year, so!
[Action]
. . . Had there been more people last year?
[Action]
[A little sheepish. He's kind of embarrassed to admit how much he got. But at the same time, he's still really happy about it.]
[Action]
I can see why you'd be a popular choice.
[Action]
...W-what do you mean?
[That kind of came out without him thinking. Really, he should know better than be surprised by now. But still.]
[Action]
[Maybe she should have worded it differently. It didn't quite come off the way she'd intended it to. So she's going to correct herself, or something to that effect.]
You're honest.
[That should be good enough. "Honest" can branch off into so many other terms . . . and that's why she picked the word.]
[Action]
Heh, sorry. I guess that was kind of a dumb question.
[Action]
I was unclear.
[Action]
[It's quite a compliment. Coming from someone like Sylvia, who struck him as hard to impress, he does feel pretty flattered. If there's one thing he's figured out about Sylvia over time is that she usually would try to say a lot with few words. He's not great at pinpointing all of the subtleties of the things she's trying to communicate yet, but...]
