Hikaru and Kaoru Hitachiin 

These two are the twins of Ouran High School Host Club. They tend to tease Tamaki Suoh and enjoy pulling pranks on other members or friends.

Generally their entire display is a forbidden love between two brothers, also known as twincest or Hitachiincest.

They were originally only prone to spending time with each other due to people never being able to tell them apart (and their parents were always too busy to pay attention to them). However, when Haruhi Fujioka came around they soon had another person to add into their little circle of trust.

They often play the "Which one is Hikaru?" game in order to stump their fellow students (the only way to tell them apart, so they think, is which way they part their hair which they change daily). However, in the anime an easier way to tell them apart is their voices.

Their trust issues originated from a maid who had worked for their parents who betrayed them. They had liked her because she would play with them, but upon stealing money from their family they caught her in the middle of the act in which she said, "No one will ever be able to tell you two apart!"

Hikaru Hitachiin is more notorious for causing trouble than his younger brother Kaoru. He also has been known to have a small crush on Haruhi Fujioka (though he does not know it, while Kaoru does).
Hikaru and Kaoru Hitachiin are known as "The Little Devil Type" according to Renge.

A dead drop is a location used to secretly pass items between two people, without requiring them to meet.

Spies have been known to use dead drops, using various techniques to hide the items and to signal that the drop has been made. Drug dealers use this as well.

A common place is to duct tape the item to the underside of a toilet cover in a public restroom.

A signal is sometimes used as well to indicate there is something to pickup, like a pile of stones in a certain formation. After checking the drop the signal is removed.
"The dead drop is the restroom toilet at the Gulf station at the corner of Commercial Ave. and Georges Rd."

No Surprises Wedding

A "No Surprises Wedding," or NSW, is a wedding invitation designation that tells attendees that there can be no unplanned announcements, engagements, events or speeches at the wedding - all actions must be pre-approved by the couple. Anyone who performs an unapproved "surprise" will be asked to leave the wedding early.

This designation comes from Reddit, where so many stories of bad wedding behavior indicated a need to communicate expectations for the wedding behavior of attendees.
You are cordially invited to the nuptials of Brian and Tom on October 31 at noon.

Please note that this wedding is child-free (under 10) and a No Surprises Wedding (NSW). Reach out to wedding planner Sami Smith to request approvals or exceptions; please note that exceptions will be rare. Limited child care for under-10s will be available. All approvals will be noted and included in planning. Unapproved, or surprise exceptions, will result in guests being asked to leave.
