“you know that he was just trying to see how much you’d blindly believe, right?” sometimes it was just sad to hear the things kureno had heard from shigure. and this was coming from the girl who had believed ren herself when she said she knew how to break the curse. “gure-nii writes fiction for a living, he’s not the most trustworthy person around.” or, well, he used to write fiction for a living. before he went to go be their family head’s assistant.

shaking her head, rin just looked up at him. “there’s no way that was ever the truth.”

"Momiji." His voice is always languid around the edges, but even despite the quiet, easy seeming smile pulling at his lips, there is something firm behind each word when he speaks. "This is far for you to come - it might be best if you found your way back." It's gentle, but pointed - confident in a way that brokers no argument.

His voice holds no room for argument; that much is clear to Momiji. And yet, he finds his feet unwilling to move from where they were, planted firmly into the snow laden gravel under himself. “I came to see you,” the rabbit started, his brown eyes falling to stare at his feet. “I don’t want to go back - not yet. Can I please stay?”For once, he finds himself growing upset; for whatever reason, of course, was unknown. The only suggestion that something was wrong was the following words: “I need a break from everything.”

His smile is as warm as it always grows in her presence, taking over his entire expression as he gently greets her with, "Merry Christmas," before offering her the cheerily wrapped package he has with him. It's nothing too over the top -- a selection of confections that he'd discovered in the past few months, and a carefully wrapped bouquet of flowers. But they were all newly discovered and he'd bought them on the whim that he might be sharing some of this new life with her.

Her fingers ran slowly against the windowpane, watching the snowflakes flutter gently to the ground. The cold was welcome this year; the snow wasn’t too heavy and it was just enough to instill a child-like sense of wonder in her. It wasn’t often that Akito was well enough to enjoy the holidays, so she was in high spirits.

But it was Kureno that drew her outside, his bright smile enough to draw one of her own forward.

“Merry Christmas”

He was handing her packages: a small one and one shaped suspiciously like flowers. She reached forward, accepting his offering graciously. “Kureno…” She breathed. “You didn’t have to.” But she appreciated it. In fact, she was thrilled. She hadn’t expected him to show, and yet here he was.

She cast a glance back into the house, where a collection of small wrapped boxes waited on a table. She had picked out a couple small things for each of her former jyuunishi, although she was perhaps most excited about the gift she had prepared for Kureno.

She invited him inside, unwrapping the flowers and arranging the bouquet delicately into a vase. “This is gorgeous, Kureno. Really. Thank you so much.”
