    Nodding  ,  the kitsune went along with her partner’s little surprise  .  Giggling in the process of how eager her priestess were being - this must be super important to Kallen  .  Careful of tripping over herself  ,  hands reach out to touch what’s around  &&  what’s familiar  .  Avoidant of a table corner  ,  stubbing her toes on the couch sides - all of that would’ve most definitely been met with a dramatic ‘ ouch ! ‘  luckily for her  ,  it IS avoided  !

    Within time  ,  the pair came to an abrupt stop  .  Being the animalistic type Sakura was - she could smell the scent of this food the second they both got into the kitchen  .  She couldn’t help the bright smile widening  ,  she certainly didn’t want to spoil the surprise her beloved had in place  .

    Upon being able to see  ,  Sakura gasps in excitement  &&  awe at the LARGER amount of onigiri versus from all those years ago  .  She’d take it in her hands  ,  lifting it to eye height  &&  looking toward Kallen  ;

     ❛ – S - Sweetheart  !? How long did it take  ?  Your palms and wrists must be so sore now  ,  are you alright  ? ❜    As grateful as one is for this delicacy  ,  the flame chaser just can’t help worrying for her priestess  . 

     Maybe  Sakura’s  senses  should  have  been  taken  into  consideration  :  a  perfumed  box  to  throw  off  the  smell  ,  or  even  a  second  meal  to  throw  her  off  the  trail  ...  but  ,  really  ,  she  didn’t  care  too  much  if  the  surprised  was  ruined  .  The  symbolism  itself  was  enough  to  keep  her  spirits  high  ,  and  who’s  to  say  she  didn’t  have  even  more  excitement  in  store  for  the  night  ?  

     Kallen  bounces  with  pride  ,  fists  balling  with  excitement  to  meet  together  under  her  chin  as  she  wiggles  .  ❛  Ta - dah  !!  ❜  Belted  the  moment  Sakura  lifts  the  lid  ,  hardly  even  waiting  for  the  onigiri  to  fall  into  her  line  of  sight  .  

     Hands  raise  to  wiggle  in  the  air  ,  a  no  big  deal  signaled  with  a  flip  of  her  wrist  &  shrug  .  ❛  I’m  okay  ,  really  !  It  only  took  me  ...  mm  ,  maybe  ...  five  hours  ...  ?  I  ...  had  to  do  it  a  few  times  ,  the  others  kept  ending  up  too  hard  and  falling  apart  !  ❜

     ...  It  is  quite  a  long  time  ,  but  surprisingly  quick  for  a  Kaslana  who  ,  in  truth  ,  would  struggle  to  keep  up  with  a  newborn  baby  in  the  kitchen  .  But  this  ,  this  moment  of  awe  present  on  beloved’s  face  ,  the  commemoration  of  the  beautiful  day  that  sealed  their  love  ...  every  mess  made  ,  and  any  pain  residing  in  her  wrists  ,  were  all  worth  it  .

     ❛  You  were  out  for  a  while  today  ,  too  ...  you  must  be  hungry  !  ~  Try  it  !  ❜

    Kitsune were having a dream  ,  a nice  &&  happy dream of she with her lover under blooming Sakura trees  .  Perhaps a remix of an old memory betwix the two - it’s something savored  …  until awoken by the woman within that dream  .  Kallen  .  Always happy to see her  ,  even more so when it’s accompanied by soft touches  &&  the warmth of her breath tied into those little kisses  .

    ❛ – Mmh  … ❜    Sakura groans a delightful groan  ,  coming to bring a half gloved hand  &&  reach out for beloved priestess  .  She’s been too tired to change into some night wear  ,  so what she’d normally have on remain  .  They’d most definitely need to be cleaned later in the day  ,  as the flame chaser can smell the sweat of her own pits  .  It’s an annoying smell  ,  hopefully Kallen can’t smell it  .

    ❛ – I …  do not remember  ,  my love  .  I believe it was a re-run of another show we watched in the past  …  It had those two cute twins in it  . ❜    Rubbing her eyes  ,  she sat up  &&  stretches  .  Even a yawn comes out  .  She remembers the twins leaving a text message yesterday  ,  Sakura’s sure to let her partner know of the plans they wanted to have this weekend  .  Though the attention is quick to move on to what Kallen wants to surprise her with ; getting all excited  .

    ❛ – Oh  ?  And what is this surprise  ? ❜

     What  a  relief  it  is  ,  seeing  Sakura  rise  in  pleasant  spirits  .  A  curiosity  rises  about  what  she  may  have  been  dreaming  of  .  Neither  of  them  are  strangers  to  nightmares  ,  but  it  seems  her  love  has  been  blessed  tonight  .

     She  eagerly  grabs  for  gloved  hand  ,  giving  a  tight  squeeze  before  bringing  fingertips  to  lips  .  Another  kiss  ,  no  doubt  thousands  more  placed  before  the  end  of  the  night  .  

     ❛  Oh  !  Maybe  it  was  the  musical  they  did  ...  I  don’t  remember  what  it  was  about  ,  actually  .  I  think  I  fell  asleep  ... ❜  Kallen  giggles  ...  contrary  to  her  claim  ,  she  begins  humming  some  of  the  song  she  remembered  .

     ❛  Welll  ...  Why  don’t  you  come  see  ? ❜  A  tug  to  pull  Sakura  into  her  arms  ,  sliding  behind  kitsune  to  cover  hands  with  eyes  .  On  the  counter  sits  a  large  box  ,  and  within  that  box  ...  lies  onigiri  ,  somehow  bigger  than  it  was  on  their  lake  trip  all  those  years  ago  . 

     ❛  Open  ! ❜

    ❛  Do  you  ...  regret  any  of  it  ? ❜

     She  hates  to  ask  ,  hates  to  bring  up  pain  that  may  still  be  lingering  ,  but  she  knows  how  those  memories  still  eat  at  Kiana  .  

     A  part  of  her  has  been  remembering  her  own  past  ,  too  .  So  much  was  still  hazy  ,  so  much  she  could  not  discern  as  truth  ,  but  nothing  was  more  clear  &  brought  more  pain  than  one  memory  .  Sakura’s  death  .  

     How  many  timelines  were  they  fated  to  end  in  tragedy  ?  How  long  did  it  take  for  their  love  to  ,  at  last  ,  defy  their  end  ?

     She  hopes  Kiana  and  Mei  do  not  suffer  the  same  .  

      ❛  ...  I  would  have  done  the  same  ,  if  it  kept  her  alive  . ❜

[judahsoath]

brainstorming some of my divergencies bc i just want kallen to live a long immortal life with sakura & get to see her bbies kiana and theresa thrive. i’m gonna make this a fully detailed post later i’m just putting out my current ideas so i don’t forget & know what to tweak hehe.

so i was thinking otto succeeds in bringing her back to life to current timeline, but she has memories of everything from the different universes with her, bc the way he went about it basically went in the imaginary tree and everything he did jumbled her history. so she doesn't even remember entirely who she was before, but the only constant she remembers is sakura bc sakura was there in every happy memory she had.

she doesn’t realize at first why this is happening. the moment he changed her fate (aligning with a few nights before she left for yae village) she only felt off. strange deja vu, and senses so overwhelming she retired to bed early. she began having dreams piecing the memories together, long enough and real enough to lead her to the village. without the corruption, they were free.

she hates what otto became because even if he “saved” her, he was so selfish in his actions & she was prepared to die. she didn’t want to live a life where she had to conform to something she would never believe in, and she wouldn’t live it married to him rather than the woman she loved.

AND SHE WANTS TO REBUILD ST. FREYA'S

     ❛  Sakura  . ❜

     Kallen  whispers  against  pink  hair  caressing  lover’s  cheek  ,  leaving  a  flurry  of  soft  kisses  in  her  wake  .  ❛  You  fell  asleep  !  What  were  you  watching  ?  ❜

     Eyes  shift  to  the  screen  ,  trying  to  make  out  something  familiar  :  it’d  be  the  ultimate  betrayal  if  she  was  watching  one  of  your  shows  without  you  !  

     ❛  I  have  a  surprise  ...  I  made  something  for  you  !  ~ ❜

@judahsoath​ ://  sakura!!!! there’s a new show out!!! LOOK!!!

                                        [  :) !!  ]

    You’re cleaning the dorm while the roommates  &&  captain are out  ,  enjoying your quiet time with Kallen during this task  .  The sound of your shared TV in the background mixed with Kallen’s enjoyment is all you need - Which is soon interrupted by her sudden burst of energy  !

    You’d look up rather quickly  ,  interested in what she’s talking about  .  It’s interesting existing in this modern age - especially with your lover - endless entertainment no matter where anyone goes  .  Though  ,  you still miss those days laying in grass  &&  looking at the clouds pass by  .  Nothing would top that level of calmness - aside from sleeping next to your Kallen  .

    Taking notice of what’s being shown on the screen  ,  it looks like the little friend of yours who stays in a different apartment  .  Your friend that visits quite often  …  Rozaliya  !  &&  her sister  ,  Liliya  .  They’ve gotten heavy into the actress scenes lately  ,  you’re happy for them  .  You support them every chance you can  ,  which includes halting your chores for the day in order to enjoy this new show with Kallen  .

    ❛ – I see it  ,  what is this one about  ?  I’m happy the twins are getting casted in bigger brands  …  I’m happy you’re so excited with these new shows  ,  too  . ❜

     you  feel  bad  ,  leaving  sakura  to  do  the  cleaning  while  you  curl  up  on  the  couch  cradling  tea  and  a  pillow  ,  buuut  ...  she  did  insist  on  you  relaxing  today  !  besides  ,  you  can  always  take  over  the  chores  tomorrow  to  return  the  favor  .  you’d  do  the  cooking  ,  if  you  were  any  good  at  it  .

     brows  furrow  at  the  screen  ,  cup  slowly  raised  to  press  against  your  lips  as  you  carefully  listen  for  the  show’s  plot  :  nearly  tuning  out  your  beloved’s  recognition  of  the  colorful  twins  !

     ❛  oooh  ...  they’re  doing  a  new  interpretation  of  ...  ❜  you  chew  the  words  for  a  moment  ,  uncertain  of  your  own  explanation  .  ❛  beauty  and  ...  the  beast  ?  i  think  that’s  what  they  said  .  but  look  ,  sakura  !  ❜  head  snaps  in  her  direction  ,  waving  her  over  as  quickly  as  you  can  .  ❛  the  big  foxy  beast  looks  like  you  !  ❜  

     it  hasn’t  hit  you  yet  .

                                        [  …  ]

    You are silent  ,  yet appreciative of the praise received from Kallen  .  It’s still so strange seeing her  , as well as the kitsune  .  Having the opportunity to bond with your ancestors - essentially - isn’t something everyone can say they’ve done  .  Your dear Kiana much resembles this woman  ,  of course the appearance  …  A smile crosses your face  ,  bowing in respect  .  &&  a little shocked she’d want to spare together  ,  though the two haven’t properly spent any tome together  .  As Mei is most often with the Yae  .  Or her lover  .

    Your head is held high once again  ,  always a confident one only now became boosted in recent weeks  .  NOTHING could stop you now  ,  you can protect everyone no matter what  !  You can protect her  .

    ❛ – I wouldn’t mind sparring together  ,  Miss Kallen  .  It would be of the highest honor  …  Sakura - Sensei is a great teacher  .  It’s surreal to me that she and I have many of the same moves  …  surreal that I can experience this in real time  .  Rather than in those pesky bubble worlds  . ❜

     truly  looking  in  a  mirror  ,  seeing  darling  kiana  and  theresa  .  you  wonder  if  it’s  the  same  for  sakura  ,  though  you  know  she’d  be  far  too  shy  to  admit  it  .  safe  to  assume  they  both  would  be  .  

     your  hands  come  up  ,  open  palms  wiggling  to  convey  such  formalities  aren’t  necessary  .  you  know  she’s  nervous  ,  know  she  struggles  the  same  way  sakura  does  .  perhaps  it’s  all  the  more  nerve  wracking  being  ‘round  lover’s  ancestor  ,  or  auntie  as  kiana’s  taken  to  calling  her  .  how  silly  .  i’m  far  too  old  to  even  be  her  grandmother  .

     you  clap  as  she  agrees  ,  seeking  out  mei’s  arm  to  give  an  excited  tug  as  she  continues  .  ❛  sakura’s  great  ,  but  training  against  someone  with  your  own  skill  all  the  time  doesn’t  help  you  improve  as  much  .  besides  :  she  won’t  admit  it  ,  but  i’m  faster  .  i’m  sure  kiana’s  complained  already  about  sparring  with  me  ...  ❜

[judahsoath]

how  are  you  ruined  ?        RUINED  BY  TRAUMA.

     YOU  CANNOT  GET  over  the  past  .  you  are  constantly  remembering  ,  never  forgetting  .  you  cant  live  in  the  moment  because  the  moment  is  not  what  brought  you  here  .  you  are  birthed  ,  raised  ,  and  killed  in  the  past  .  you  will  never  get  over  what  was  done  to  you  ,  be  it  big  or  be  it  small  .  you  cannot  escape  what  you  refuse  to  confront  .

animastyle​:

                @judahsoath​​ ://  you remind me of her a lot, you know.

                                        [  …  ]

    You remain silent for a moment  ,  your posture is stiff around this woman even though there’s no reason to be  .    Do I  ?    You ask yourself  .  Sakura is one of your closest friends  &&  has been for a few decades at this point  .  Perhaps the Shrine Maiden has began to rub off on you  ?

     ❛ – I guess  .  What brought that up  ,  Kallen  ? ❜

       ❛  hmmm  ...  ❜

     you  don’t  have  to  think  about  it  .  you  knew  the  answer  the  moment  you  saw  her  ,  the  moment  you  caught  the  light  in  her  eyes  ‘round  your  own  kaslana  blood  .  kiana  and  mei  ,  kallen  and  yae  sakura  ,  it  seemed  the  universe  had  a  funny  way  of  keeping  you  both  alive  while  mankind  pulled  the  strings  to  cheat  death  .  

     maybe  that’s  why  she’s  so  nervous  around  you  .  you  know  how  this  threatens  to  end  .  know  just  how  cruel  this  world  can  be  .  but  above  all  ,  you  know  their  love  is  real  .  you  offer  a  smile  ,  gentle  as  you  can  to  hide  the  worry  rooted  deep  in  your  belly  .

     ❛  i  can  tell  you’re  learning  from  her  ,  is  all  .  i  saw  the  two  of  you  training  together  earlier  this  week  ...  it’s  like  you  already  knew  every  move  .  maybe  you  need  to  spar  with  someone  new  ,  hmm  ?  maybe  even  ...  me  !  ❜

animastyle​:

                   @judahsoath​ ://  look sakura. it’s sleeping. ( it’s a bunny )

                                       [  :)  ]

    You smiled  ,  letting the creature rest on your lover’s lap  .  Something warm builds in your chest cavity  ,  then butterflies in your stomach  .  It’s a pleasant feeling  ,  one you feel most of your time spent with Kallen  .  It’s a feeling you wish to never have escape  ,  for what would you do with out it  ?

    You inch closer  ,  quietly  !  You don’t want to wake it  .  Your hand came to softly stroke at floppy ears  ,  unsure if bunnies are capable of purring like cats  .  The urge to ask builds  ,  yet you decide against it  .

    It’s ears are like mine  ,  you motion toward your own that slightly stick in the air  ;  they almost curve to fit your spikey hair style  .  The way Kallen looks at you with acknowledgment causes your cheeks to burn  ,  a good burn  .  Flustered  .  Embarrassed  .  Your throat clears  &&  you’d give Kallen a kiss on the cheek ; but you wouldn’t leave until speaking up  .

    ❛ – Thank you  ,  my love  .  This made me happy  . ❜    You whisper  ,  leaving to cook dinner as the sun is setting  .  Maybe Kallen would like salted sakura onigiri again  ?

     you  wouldn’t  admit  it  so  easily  ,  but  you’ve  been sitting  with  little  rabbit  for  some  time  now  ,  carefully  brushing  and  smoothing  out  fur  as  you  muse  over  the  same  thought  your  lover  had  .  long  ears  ,  falling  just  enough  to  stay  out  of  the  way  ,  not  enough  to  hang  entirely  .  maybe  that’s  why  it  fell  asleep  so  easily  :  you’ve  been  at  peace  ,  and  so  ,  gentle  creature  knows  you’d  never  dare  to  harm  nor  wake  it  .  (  there’d  only  be  hell  to  pay  for  those  who  tried  .  )

     she  was  thinking  it  ,  too  .  sakura’s  cheeks  may  sear  with  embarrassment  ,  but  yours  ,  yours  glow  with  a  warmth  of  adoration  .  a  joy  you  did  not  dream  you  could  truly  hold  as  your  own  .  

     you  fall  back  into  the  grass  ,  eyes  following  as  beloved  takes  quiet  steps  away  .  your  voice  is  but  a  whisper  when  you  decide  to  speak  ,  thinking  out  loud  more  than  anything  . 

     ❛  can  we  feed  her  ,  too  ?  ❜
