Our Hideaway
@windsofwish
In a room doused in blue, streaks of light shimmered and danced across the walls, the floor, the ceiling. A soft whirr of near silent pumps accompanied the constant sound of bubbles streaming and popping, water moving through filters out of tanks and gently waterfalling back. A quiet sort of peace.
Overnight, Kanata had gotten a new tank moved into the Marine Bio Clubroom. He had done it entirely on his own this time, unlike with the other tanks that lined the walls and formed almost a labyrinth throughout the rest of the room. Meticulously working through the night, Kanata had cleaned and set up everything, filling the tank with water to get it ready for the new fish he was bringing in. As it was a gesture very personal to himself, he had wanted to get it all set up with his own hands.
This room had been made to fulfill a wish that Kaoru had imparted to Kanata when he was only a god, a few short years ago. Now he was more, he was Kanata, and somehow that held much more purpose to it.
“Hm~ Hmm~ Hm~ ♪ ♫ ♪ “
Gentle humming filled the room, blending in almost seamlessly with the ambient sound as if the music had always been made for the water. Perhaps it had.
Kanata smiled softly as he hummed, his eyes filled with a wistful light as he carefully lowered his two newest acquisitions into their new home. Hopefully... hopefully, this wouldn’t be a mistake.
