xp log: kippei and shinji

Kippei had forgotten all about the date, until he was at work and the guys on his crew were talking about what they were doing for the evening with their various wives and girlfriends and sweethearts, all making special plans for Valentine's Day.

Kippei smiled grimly to himself. Well, he might have forgotten, but he did have something special for Shinji after all. He hadn't been planning to show it to him yet, but now was as good a time as any. He thought about it on his way home, turning it over in his mind until he got too close and then he stopped thinking, because Shinji was mostly back to normal now and there was no hope of keeping a surprise from him if he was thinking about it.
