A light sweetness on one end, a darker, richer flavor on the other. The flavors complemented one another, like a finely-prepared dish. Hisui ponders this, even as she considers their own different decisions on the matter of Goemon. The Utaku who chose compassion for an entire realm and the Doji who chose duty to the Empire. "I'm not. You chose Duty to the Empire. I chose Compassion for the spirits of Yume-do. We both did what we thought was right."
She kisses Fuyuko again before she responds on the matter of the more pleasant topic. "That explains why I'm so tired all the time. I'm busy running around in your thoughts," she says, playing a mild twist on one of the oldest jokes in the book. "But I'm glad you notice. Before, it was vanity that drove me to look the way I do. Now it's to Honor my wife."
Gently, she puts Fuyuko back down. She could have carried the Crane for a little longer, but she decided on something else. The Utaku kneels, giving the Crane the height advantage. "Your idea sounds lovely. But would Emma-O approve of his dear daughter's choice of bride?"

Fuyuko nods. "I know you do not act out of selfishness or dishonor. We can disagree on course and still see each other as honorable Samurai." she says with a firm nod.
Fuyu rolls her eyes. "You do run in my mind all the time. Do many more things as well. I have no objection if you have a little vanity still, even if I know honor is a large part of it now. It is my honor to please you as well."
She sighs as she is set down, testing her feet before she looks down at the taller woman as she kneels in front of her. "I think if Emma-o did not want us to be together, he would have made it clear to us instead of shaping us to be perfect for each other. I do not know how much each fortune can control, but just in his realm alone we are so close. I would be shocked if he and the Lords did not help Benten with their creation of us."

"I love you, my honor and my soul." She smiles, but chuckles at the rolling of the eyes. She made the bad joke, now she's going to run with the idea. "And just what does your wife do in your mind, hmm? Massage you? Kiss you gently? Bite you so you feel alive? How does your wife Honor you in your mind, that she might Honor you in the same manner in this dream and in the real world?"
Hisui's hands are there to offer support as the balance is tested. She would not let her dearest one fall or trip at this moment. She would be there, to hold her up and pick her up. From her kneeling position, she looks up and smiles. Her only intention is to let the Crane feel like the tall one and enjoy it. "Perhaps so. We will learn one day, I hope. It might even be tonight, as the world ends, and the dreams of Fuyuko and Hisui meet with Emma-O before passing on to the minds of their waking selves."

Fuyuko sighs as she hears her run with the joke, running in her mind as well. "Oh.. oh so many ways. Sometimes with kisses and song, sometimes with tea and conversation, sometimes with whips and our little blue toy. She honors me in so many different ways I imagine we would need several lifetimes to do them all."
She coos again as she feels the help with the balance, feels herself towering over her love. A new sensation indeed. "That would be interesting if that was how it works. Only you could make my cessation exciting and interesting. Because I get to go with you. Wherever you go."

"Several lifetimes? Then it's good that we will have those," she says, closing her eyes to picture those moments. She smiles at the feeling of the Crane towering over her. It had only happened once before, and it hadn't lost its appeal in this second instance. "You flatter me. I only think of ways where we can be together. If that excites you, then I'd say I'm doing a good job of it. I love you, you know."

Fuyuko giggles. "I love you just as much. Every heartbeat calls out your name and when it is silenced then it will need to be content to whisper it." she says poetically and dramatically before steeping forward to embrace her kneeling love. The smell of peaches and makup-powder strong on her. "Several lifetimes. I am in no rush to start the next one but it seems to be coming soon enough. Even if it is not so much started as interrupted with this one."

"Fuyuko-hime is ever the poet. But sometimes she might soften the heartbeat. If she does not, how will she ever hear this humble soldier sing softly to her of her many virtues?" And then she is embraced. She closes her eyes and lets herself bask in that touch. The powder and peaches were familiar and welcome. She holds tight. "As many as the Fortunes will allow us. I don't want to rush either, but it seems we need to make the most of what time we have left."
"Let every moment be our eternity."

Fuyu hugs her back, taking a deep breath. "Would you be upset my love, if we found Uetani for the end? I don't want my daughter to feel scared or abandoned. I wish we could have your children here too so you could be with them my sweet wonderful songbird."

"Of course not. I would find all the people who know us, if that was possible," she answers, solemn and thoughtful. "I want to be with those I care about most as this world ends. To say goodye, if nothing else. This is a very unusual way to die, you must admit."

Fuyuko nods. "A wise plan then. Hopefully this dream will help us in that aspect. And yes, it is an unusual way to go. Quite different then how I thought I would be leaving this world but then again, we haven't been in the world to begin with. And I get to hold those I love close when it happens which....is nice. It's one of the few things denied to those who fight and die for their empire."
