[ Though in this case, Midorima only accepted the gift because Eichi stopped being pretentious and gave him an honest answer about what he wanted. It was a selfish enough answer Midorima didn't think he was lying, which was why he didn't object to their home being invaded by the piano. Much. He allowed it to happen, anyway, instead of calling the police about a blonde home invader.
While he likes the piano, Tsumugi certainly has the more meaningful gift. There isn't much Midorima loves more than a good bowl of oshiruko, and fresh made just like home is just about the best birthday gift he could've received. It's not a competition, but if he had to name a winner, Tsumugi would get it this time. This was the most thoughtful thing anyone had done today. Midorima actually looks a little awkward about it, getting very quiet instead of making a sharp or coolly stated reply like he normally would. He turns his gaze to the side a second after Tsumugi catches his eye, reaching up to push his glasses up his nose and clear his throat. ]
