Title: Observation Fandom(s): Akatsuki no Yona/Yona of the Dawn Characters: Iguni, Yuno, feat. Sujin Pairing(s): slight GeunYuno Rating: G Summary: Iguni attends the annual martial arts tournament and festival this year because she is curious to see a certain woman she has only heard of.

AkaYona Ladies Week 2019 - Festival

Iguni normally didn’t attend these tournaments. A flash show put on by King Il to let warriors both seasoned and fresh show off and use their skills in an era that otherwise did not let them. It was curiosity that made her decide to come with her husband and two sons this time, and what she heard about she had to see with her own eyes. 

The heads of the tribes were very often part of nobility. If sons weren’t succeeding their fathers as generals, the generals were passing their positions on to the strongest nobleman they had ties to. They married equally esteemed women and continued an esteemed bloodline. It was how she married into the Fire Tribe’s Kan family and simply continued with life and tradition. 

However, every once in a while a general shook things up, but only once in a while. Iguni had certainly never heard of it happening in recent years. The Earth Tribe general had taken a commoner as a wife. A women who came to his castle as a mere gardener. 

She was curious. 

“Excuse me, may I offer you a cup of tea?” a soft, cheerful young woman asked from the side. She wore an equally radiating yellow and pink silk robe with a white tunic bordered in gold. Her hair was pulled back in a simple hairpin adorned with painted flowers. She appeared to be one of Hiryuu Castle’s court ladies dressed up for the festivities. She accepted the offer and watched as she walked away, gasping as the young one nearly tripped with the tea tray in her hands. 

As the young woman left her mind, Iguni focused on spotting the families of the other generals. Ahn Jun-gi was present by himself, though that was par the course. He never brought his daughter, and his wife never seemed to want anything to do with him. General Mundok’s party was just getting seated. His adopted grandson was expected to put on an impressive show, or so she had heard from the grapevine. 

When she spotted General Geun-tae, the same young woman who had served her was pouring him a cup. To her surprise, she then proceeded to sit next to him. Briefly, before he stood up and headed towards the preparation era for participants. The young woman laughed and smiled, happily interacting with the folk in the Earth Tribe stands. An even younger woman who appeared to be an actual waiting lady sat next to her. 

Throughout the tournament, she could see the mistakes she made. Shooting up from the seat to cheer her husband and Earth warriors on. Attempting to get out of her seat, only to be coaxed by her lady-in-waiting to sit as she left to get whatever it was she needed. Having a sense of grace that came more with being soft-spoken than being forcibly dignified. Slumping over and appearing outwardly bored. This young woman oozed an air of freedom that was being caged. 

“Have you seen Geun-tae’s wife?” 

Iguni turned to see her husband standing next to her. When he arrived she didn’t know. Between the matches and observing the Earth Tribe stands she hadn’t heard him slip through. 

“Yes. She appears rather young,” Iguni trailed off. 

“Indeed. And far too filthy. A gardener!” he said mockingly. “Geun-tae was always an obnoxious brat, but even I expected more of him.” 

“Her upbringing is apparent,” Iguni spoke up, “but she appears to be adapting very well. She’ll be indistinguishable from any other noble woman in no time.” She said nothing more and fanned herself. 

He snorted a laugh before walking away, allowing Iguni to exhale an aggravated sigh and snap her fan shut. She called her own ladies-in-waiting forth, giving them instructions to gift the Lady of the Earth Tribe with flowers and a silk red robe as soon as the tournament was done. 

The young woman who had it easy comparative to her, being part of the more relaxed Earth Tribe, was still part of Kouka’s sometimes tumultuous nobility. She would face the negatively judgmental stares, scrutiny far taxing than if she was already a woman in the noble class, and she only wished the best for her in her journey. 

“Oh,” she paused as she prepared to leave for intermission, “I never caught her name.”

“Yuno of the Earth Tribe,” a lady-in-waiting answered. 

“What a cute name for an equally adorable woman.”

Day 5 of Ladies Week

[ask-captain-gi-gan]

[[ Before Akayonaladiesweek officially starts tomorrow, I thought I go back and work on this design for Gi-Gan. It’s her look as a general in my DragonLadies!AU. ]]

[peachchanvidel]

OK.. because I work on two cosplays atm which need to be finished in 9 days (and work is hell this month..) I can’t be too active for AkaYonaLadiesWeek.

So I took an older sketch of teacher Yunho and small Yona and Lili and finished it.

Really wanted to make something better.. but perhaps (and sadly) after this event. (And I really waited for this one.. and now the timing sucks T_____T)
