"Mmm, perhaps not. But I wish I could do more," she admits, though she understands such things are beyond her ability. "But I shall content myself with advice and new perspectives, and hope she finds someone who can offer her more than that someday. It might be someone who knows her now. Or someone she has yet to meet."
"You have someone who cares for you and wants you to do better." She smiles. "And she's thankful you've given her the opportunity to do so."

Fuyuko smiles at Hisui. "And look how great it worked out for me. She needs it too and I don't feel she had a Makebesu-sama or Masako-sama." she says with a smile. "But still, I think we do good for her."

"We can be those for her," she answers, returning the smile and offering another bite for the Crane to eat. "We're not quite the same and not quite as good as they are, but we can do our best. If you are with me, I don't think we can fail her."
She laughs, but hides it behind her hand.
"Listen to us. Ten days in, and we're already talking about our children like an old married couple. Imagine what we'll be like by this time next year."

"We are, different. Perhaps a different type for a different time." she hears this and gives a small giggle. "My only worry is that Benten may want us to have a 40 year marriage in the next year. As much as I will enjoy it, we will have to work in the water and wine breaks." she teases back good naturedly.

She looks at Fuyuko, eyes wide and surprised. "What a challenge that will pose. Forty years of wedded bliss compressed into one year. We'd wouldn't have time for anything else!" She laughs, though. Good-natured, at ease. She gives her Doji another kiss on the cheek. "But whatever happens, good or bad, I want to share it with you."
"Meals. Dates. Moments of pride. Moments of..." She turns red, a clear indication of what the silence leaves unspoken. "...and so much more. Our children may grow sick of us and how sweet we are."

Fuyuko gives a good natured laugh before she shrugs. "Well if we have to do so much, lets skip the bad parts then. Leave all the rough parts out an we might have time to pull it off my love?"

She purrs a little. "Yes, that sounds good. No arguing. No fighting. No you throwing me out of bed and making me sleep on the couch because I made you angry. No you refusing to touch me at night because I said something stupid. And all sorts of other things." She rests her head on that shoulder, lets her cares fade away along with her tension. "Just us."
"By the way, how do you find the food?" she asks, punctuating the question by taking another bite. "I am curious to know if Gyushi-san's work meets your approval."

Fuyu nods. "I would never throw you out or refuse to touch you. I would just be..stern. And glare. And maybe just standoffish." she says before frowning. "I don't have much experience at it. That is what I think I would do." she says as she leans against the head, taking a few more bites. "I must confess I tried his cooking before. But he has improved. Tarik hired him once. Mind you, you hired an Artisan to make food with love rather then to impress. That makes all the difference."

"I pray we never find out what you would do. That would mean we had a disagreement that turned into a fight that neither of us could resolve," she says, recalling something her late husband said so long ago. "And I like to think we can talk through our differences. Not bicker about them like petulant children."
She smiles at Fuyuko's approval of the cooking. She finds the young man's work impressive herself, but the Utaku suspected the Doji's palate more difficult to please. "Then perhaps when you ask me out on a date, you'll be seeking out his services? Not that I'm hinting that I'd like to be swept off my feet."
Hisui has a playful smirk. Of course she would love for Fuyuko to ask her out again someday. Even if they are engaged. Sometimes a lady just likes being pursued.

Fuyu wrinkles her nose. "I would hope that we don't either. I think we would just talk it through but...I suppose we will find out if we ever have one." she says before she chuckles. "I see. Looks like I will have to hire him then. Does he know how to make that salty milk drink you like so much?"
