The persistence doesn't surprise her. She expected such dogged devotion. It was in Fuyuko's nature. She still can't bring herself to truly believe in what the Crane is saying or to hold that hand tighter, but she tries. She tries to be less upset. To be less hurt by what is going on. To be less troubled by the possibility that when she woke up, she would remember nothing and she and Fuyuko never met and her days were filled with loneliness and the shadowy grip of misery.
Then the reminder of that promise. That she would not die alone. She almost chuckles. Almost smiles. "There are worse ways to die, I suppose."

Fuyuko shushes slightly, more a sound of comfort from the odd bird then any attempt to try to silence her love, an odd comforting syncopation to the sound. She scoots closer, looking up with honest eyes. "I could...kill you. Before it happens. If it makes it easier. That way you could feel it. Have the physicality of the death rather then the...sudden nothing. We could stab each other. If they chose to wake him. " she says softly.
"There is a romance to being in your arms and kissing you as it happens no matter what. I think that is a detail I would like, if you would grant that to your Baku-Fuyu. But if Moto is to be believed,all the things that made us work so well, all the things that made us perfect for each other. That occurred behind the dream. The dream just showed us the fastest path to find it. But not the only path. Maybe it won't be at the hot-springs. Maybe we need to wait a little bit more. Maybe the fortunes will take pity on us for the sins of our pasts lives, having seen the honor Baku-Fuyu and Baku-Hisui had, and they will let the real Fuyu and Hissy be happen. You need to believe, and if you can't. I will for you. I may be scared but I promise, when we end, you can look into my eyes and I will lend you my certainty."

She listens. She stays silent for longer than necessary, as if trying to process what was said and what the right words to say after would be. She doesn't know what's right or wrong anymore. The only guidance she has is Fuyuko now, and a part of her questions just how much of her can be counted on in this difficult dream. "I don't know what I want, to be honest. But..."
Hisui looks around, glancing at the emptiness of the room. She seizes the opening. If she was never going to have a chance like this again, then damn it she would take what was given. She kisses Fuyuko, lips against lips, body pressing against body. Fearless. Bold. Passionate. Breathtaking. Yes, anyone could just walk in and see them, but she didn't care. Their world was ending in two days. No one would remember. No one would care. Just the two of them. So she pours herself out in that kiss, that one moment. Gives herself as much as she dares and holds on long after she needs to keep breathing. This is not the kiss that drained Fuyuko's soul. This is different, somehow.
This is Hisui attempting to let Fuyuko take hers.
"I will do and take what you would ask. In the end, this is all a dream. But what hurts the most is that as much as everything is an illusion, it is real to me. You are real to me. This moment, this kiss, this love. It's all real to me. And if you think that we should believe, I will believe. Because the only thing that is real to me, in this grand illusion we're in, is you. I am sorry for being such a burden on you."

Fuyuko looks around at the room and then...BOOM she is kissed, out in the open. For a moment she is shocked, she considers propriety, telling her to stop. And then she realizes that there is no need. The world is ending. She moves into it, giving her own soul back, making sure they end the kiss with one soul each. She kisses until she can't anymore, until her love is done and until she is left with the fluttering feeling in her heart and stomach of pure bliss and joy.
"It is real to me too. You are real to me. My daughter is real to me. You will never be a burden to me my love, and I will do everything in my power to see you die with a smile. How many people die alone? Even if we are but silly baku in love, soon to vanish forever, we were blessed to be able to touch such joy even if only for the weeks we did."

The world is ending. Their world is ending.
"I'm sorry. For doubting. For being scared. I can only hope that when you find her, the real me is more deserving. Closer to someone perfect for you." She smiles. She licks her lips, the taste of Doji soul on them. "I have tried. Fortunes know I have tried. And most of the time, I feel like I succeeded. If this is a test, I can only feel as if I've failed you just now."
"Thank you. For blessing what little time I had with you. It is more than I could have asked for."
The world is ending. Their world is ending.
So she moves to kiss Fuyuko just like before. If the world was to end, then let her enjoy her wife's kiss one last time.

Fuyu shakes her head. "You were...every bit as deserving and no more imperfect then I am. You did not fail me. We simply saw things differently. So I offered you use of my eyes. "
And then she is kissed and she kisses back, with full ferocity, only breaking it off to catch her breath. "We have a last day together. Do you think Moto-sama could clean up our house for us?"

She smiles softly. She feels better now, despite her worries. Was this a part of the dream? Was the ease with which Fuyuko took her worries away something inherent to the Crane, or was it just more nudging from the Moto's work? She couldn't know. But she tried to push it out of her mind. Contemplating such things was beyond her, and it did little to comfort her to know the answer. Not when it may not matter at all in the end.
So she lets her thoughts bask in that kiss instead. "We can't leave campus. I've heard students try and found themselves walking back without knowing how," she says, sighing. The idea of visiting that house had crossed her mind, too. "However we intend to spend tomorrow, we'll have to be content with the school grounds, it seems."
"I suppose I could teach you to sing."

Fuyu sighs lightly. "Ah right. We can't go anywhere. Well then we will have to make a home here then. My quarters, your quarters. The school can be our home. After all, it's possible we lived here all our lives." she says her eyes sparkling in a bit of dark humor.
"Hmm, was I that bad my love? Still I would love to learn. It would be a worthwhile endevour. So I could sing to you without making you cry." she says softly, reaching up to brush her face.

"I suppose, in a sense, we have lived here all our lives," she says, letting the dark humor play around. It does make her laugh just a little bit. If only Fuyuko knew how at ease she could make Hisui feel, the kind of power the Crane had over the Unicorn. It would be terrifying to have in the hands of almost anyone else. "For what little time we have left, this will be our home. And I would love to have the honor of carrying you over the threshold of our home. Carry you over it and into bed, as if we were newlyweds."
Then, she performs yet another act without warning. She shifts and adjusts. Unless the Doji chooses to resist, Hisui will rest her head on that lap. Her face will be angled up to look at Fuyuko's from below, eyes still somewhat red from the tears. The lap, she thinks, is much nicer than she expected. She could get used to being in this position.
"It wasn't you that made me cry. Your voice is not bad, but I wouldn't call you good, either. If you want to learn, I can teach you. We could make beautiful music together. Actual music, and not the euphemism I use in my head for when you and I..." She blushes. All the indication the Doji would need to understand what the Utaku meant. "Because those moments are beautiful too. All the time we spend together is beautiful to me."

Fuyuko smiles back, she knows the humor is dark but, for Fuyuko most of her humor is of the dark kind. For a creature of death such as her, this is how she gets over her fear, this and hearing the laughter of her love. "Yes, I would love to be carried over to my bad by you. And, I have a dress. It's not a wedding dress but it's the best we can get at the moment."
The head then is in her lap and her hand moves to gentle run her fingers through her hair, lightly scratching at her scalp. "I know my love, I was teasing you. But I can learn, I don't plan on sleeping tonight. No point in sleeping if we are already dreaming, though I wouldn't mind taking a couple of hours nap with you so we can make it to the end. And you can teach me how to sing so I can sing to you."
