Fuyuko sighs. "Better it didn't? I don't know how much I trust that woman. Especially if as you say she has our...tastes. But I know it was for me. I would never assume you did so with any other intent."

"Well, at least there was no harm done in the long run. And no, I don't trust her. I don't think anyone but Shosuro-san does, and I don't think he entirely trusts her either," she says, her tone still apologetic. "And while I regret how effective it was, I don't regret the lovely afternoon it inspired in you."
"You spoil me rotten, you know that?"

Fuyuko sighs. "It must be a sad life that, but still, one we cannot help her with. And I forgive you love. It's not spoiling if you deserve it. We deserve it. We deserve happiness. As a reward for our duty. For our willingness to sacrifice to the Empire when needed. In this life and maybe the last."

"You deserve a great many rewards for your devotion to Duty, too," she says, biting her lip and resisting the urge to kiss the Crane. It was hard, having such a beautiful woman with such inviting skin next to her. She contents herself with just taking a hand and holding it, interlocking fingers. "If you are my soul's reward, then I hope to earn more time with you for my next thousand lives. I have never been so happy."
Tears fall, to mix with the water of the springs.

Fuyu giggles, taking that hand. "You are my reward. And shh love. I am so happy to so...let us just enjoy the time together."

"Yes, yes we should." A little sob again, her feelings overwhelming her for a moment. That sound of comfort lets her get back in control of herself. As much as she ever does. "You are so beautiful. I can't take my eyes off you."
"By the way, it seems we weren't the only group seeking out the Goblin," she says, smiling as she speaks of what she hopes is good news. "Kuni-san, from earlier? She is apparently a friend of Koshiro-san's. She's a shugenja and intends to help raise the old kobune."

Fuyuko smiles gently. "I am glad when I can wear my dark glasses. Because then i can see you as the world sees you. I don't know how they can stand not having you." she says gently. "I suppose that is the one burden I won't have to bear."
"Oh? Kuni-san? I met her a few times but did not know her well. I am glad she is willing to help. I have heard mostly good things about her."

"She seems a kind girl. Honest. She has her own troubles, but who doesn't?" the Unicorn says. "Still, she is willing to help because she is a friend of Koshiro-san. Like mother, like son, I suppose. Gathering his own crew."
At the praise, she flushes a little bit. But she appreciates the goggles now, for the opportunity they present. "Perhaps you have me because you see differently. Sometimes, we have to close our eyes to see. Or something like that. But yes, you won't have to be alone anymore. It is a burden I will not have you bear."
She smiles. "May I sing for you?"

Fuyu thinks a moment. "That is kind of her then. And yes, she was good at gathering a crew for herself."
"Hmm that might be, still I can see you with them. And later on I can see you without them. What more could I ask for? Well I suppose that. I could ask you to sing for me. I would love to hear it."

Hisui smiles at the memory. An old friend with an old boat. The rage she felt over the past few days had faded, like they were lies she told herself. It may have been, she considers. Jealousy in the guise of rage, of a doubt on whether or not Fuyuko would have cared so much if it was the Utaku in Kuneho's place. The Crane's actions over lunch dispelled such concerns and she thought it best not to speak of them further. "You can see me however you like," she says with a loving, longing look. "I see you when I close my eyes, a picture of beauty in silver. You as you are and you as you could be, and both are equally lovely." With permission given, the Utaku Songbird goes for an older song. One that is almost three decades old. And she delivers it with a performance perhaps worthy of the Kakita Academy. As the moonlight floats on the waves, a warm night steals in
My eyes averted to the falling twilight, I spoke my mind
Amidst as many chance meetings as there are stars
You were there before I knew it
You're my only shining star
I'm sorry for always having made you worry
You are the one that's most important to me
Stay by my side forever - I love you
I don't understand why, but tears flow even without reason
"It's unlike you to cry at a moment like this", you say as you embrace me
Your smile is shy as always
While the moonlight illuminates the two of us
You're my only shining star
I'm sure you'll never cease to shine
The stars' radiance engulfs me
An eternal, endless shooting star
Chasing the curious throbbing
brought to me by the flow of time
was what brought me here
You're my only shining star
I'm sorry for always having made you worry
You are the one that's most important to me
Stay by my side forever - I love you |
