Hey, welcome to a special update! I've been planning this for a while so enjoy.
In this I wanted to show some caring on Hiei's part, more so than usual at least (in my drabble I mean). I plan on updating again on Saturday/Sunday. Most likely the latter, as I'm going to a drama festival for school tomorrow.

Valentine's Day
Kurama sat on his bed and twirled a toxic plant seed between his fingers, willing it to grow and shrink. "Maybe a toxic plant would be too… harsh..." thought Kurama. As he waited for his guest, he would make notes on a piece. Kyoko, yes she would be a problem… The plant shrunk back to a seed.
"How aggravating…" Kurama murmured.
"What's aggravating?" Hiei's sharp voice came from the window.
"You shouldn't come in unannounced. Mother could have been here."
"As if you would allow that," Hiei said.
"I suppose not," Kurama laughed.
"So, what's aggravating?" Hiei asked again.
"There's this Ningenkai holiday, Valentine's Day, where girls give chocolates to people whom they care for or they may like." said Kurama calmly.
"So….. What about it?"
"Sadly, it's tomorrow. And, every year I get more sweets than I could possibly handle so I'm taking evasive measures."
"Why would they give chocolate to you? It seems like a pointless holiday," said Hiei.
"Humans are very sociable creatures and I'm a popular student; Valentine's Day is often a time for confessions of love," Kurama reasoned. Hiei picked up the list and scanned it.
"There are a lot of females on this list…" Hiei muttered.
"Those are only the ones who get… ah… violent…" Kurama chuckled.
"It sounds like a ridiculous holiday," Hiei snapped.
"I agree. But it can be rewarding. Mother is always so delighted when I grow her roses," responded Kurama.
"Hmm…," Hiei moved toward the window.
Kurama looked over. "Same time tomorrow?"
But, Hiei was gone.
When Kurama came home the next day, nearly toppling over with the amount of chocolates he had been given, he was pleasantly surprised to find a box of Makai Sweets waiting for him on his bed.
This is the product of a special holiday update. Also, Emily felt guilty about not updating for a long time during winter.
