Entry ☆ 8

ANIKI, YOU'RE SUCH A STUPID SELFISH JERK!

[glass or china breaking can be heard in the back. Jun's just thrown a vase at Hiiragi's bedroom door.]

I thought you changed, but apparently not! Kuromi didn't mean to make you angry. Why can't you forgive her? And stop moping around! We need to get out there and look for her. She could be hurt or dying and all you care about is your damn ego!

You're lucky she still cares so much about you even though you treat her like crap! Hell, maybe it WOULD be better if she DIDN'T care about you anymore and moved on, just like Uta-chan did, so you could realize what a dick you are!!

GAAH.

[Jun approaches the computer, not caring that he just posted that over the network. Stupid Hiiragi deserves it anyway.]

Kuromi's missing. If anyone sees a little white rabbit with a black hood, let me know ASAP!


[OOC: Sign up for the plottage, please? We need more people! ;.;]

... Oichi-hime?

[soaringly.livejournal.com]

[ She turns, keeping her back to the door but making sure her voice is clear. ]

It has been a while, ne? Are you not even going to look at my face?

[pinkikemenhero.livejournal.com]

... I.. am sorry, Oichi-hime. I am not in the best of moods.

[soaringly.livejournal.com]

[ And she turns, with a small smile as she looks up at his face. ]

Still the same, Hiiragi-san...

[ And she reaches out to touch his cheek. ]

May I come in?

[pinkikemenhero.livejournal.com]

Mn. Hai..

[soaringly.livejournal.com]

[ As she does enter, she feels a wave of nostalgia... how normal this feels, and how simple. She chuckles to herself, shaking her head. ]

People do strange things when they're in love, don't they...?

[pinkikemenhero.livejournal.com]

It depends.

[soaringly.livejournal.com]

[ She's always been straightforward. And she steps up behind him, falling silent for a while, before moving her hands before her. ]

I do not think... a friend would keep something you should know from you in malice, Hiiragi-san... why are you hurting over something you would have been told eventually, so long as your friendship with Kuromi-chan remained?

...

I...



... Do you know how humiliating it is to find out you had feelings for an animal?

[soaringly.livejournal.com]

Hm... I can't say I can relate...

[ She's a warrior, even if the subject is strange, she's going to take this to heart. After all, where she comes from, animals taking human form isn't abnormal in folklore. ]

But I can empathize. Especially knowing your background with her.

[ She comes up behind him, touching his shoulder. ]

Hiiragi-san... think from her point of view for just a moment. Don't you think... she had a reason to keep her silence?

[pinkikemenhero.livejournal.com]

... She told me she didn't mean for it to get out of hand. That at first she only wanted to dance, then find out if I was Usamimi.

But even with just those two times, I wanted to know more about Kurumi. She was so different from the other women I had encountered..

[soaringly.livejournal.com]

And as a woman, she most likely is, Hiiragi-san.

[ She sighs, and moves her hand back, standing next to Hiiragi now, looking out the same window. ]

Just because she is an animal... does it really put her below us when it is clear she is sentient? And that...

[ She looks at him ]

She can still take the physical shape of a human... does that make her any less than us?

[pinkikemenhero.livejournal.com]

.. I.. don't know..

[soaringly.livejournal.com]

Hiiragi-san...

[ She moves her hands before her, seemingly in thought. ]

Forgiveness is what makes a man even stronger than a warrior. If you can...

Then please forgive yourself first... and if you feel she deserves it, forgive Kuromi-san.

[ She chuckles to herself. ]

You do not know when you won't have them anymore, ne...?

[pinkikemenhero.livejournal.com]

Oichi-hime.. Thank you. You always tell me what I need to hear.



I will miss you.

[soaringly.livejournal.com]

[ She chuckles softly, her cheeks coloring a touch as she holds his hand back and gazes up at him ]

We're friends, ne? Just think of me and I will be there for you.

[ A small laugh escapes her as she reaches out to touch his cheek ]

Preferably on curses like these. It brought Ranmaru back too. He will be glad to see you again.

I hope... you are feeling a little better.

[pinkikemenhero.livejournal.com]

I am grateful.

2/3 - I lied 8D

[pinkikemenhero.livejournal.com]

Ranmaru-sama is here as well? Do you know where he is right now?

[pinkikemenhero.livejournal.com]

.. And I am feeling better, thanks to you, Oichi-hime.

[soaringly.livejournal.com]

[ Giving his cheek another light stroke, she lets her hand linger there and she smiles up at him ]

He was looking for Lord Mitsuhide, but could not find him. He headed out to the Square instead to find some friends he recalled from here.

[ And she gives his hand a light squeeze ]

Do I not get even a little treat? We don't get cute sundaes in Nippon, you know.

[pinkikemenhero.livejournal.com]

.. You were expecting more? I suppose I can make an exception..

[soaringly.livejournal.com]

[ She can't help but giggle lightly, and with a shake of her head, she draws back, still holding his hand. ]

I hope your brother does not mind, not being invited. It has been so long since I have seen you, after all.

[pinkikemenhero.livejournal.com]

.. He's already gone out for ice cream three times since he's arrived. He'll live.

[soaringly.livejournal.com]

Then what are we waiting for?

[ Smiles and takes him by the arm ]

Let's go meet Ranmaru, ne?
