Mugen: So this power you keep talking about is the power to control other people? Nagatomi: That's right. What's your point? Mugen: I don't care about any of that crap. I don't want to rule or be ruled.
Ishimatsu: I didn't believe in anything but my own skills, either. I used to think, "I'm going to use these skills of mine to grab something better for myself. That's all I need." But the world doesn't work that way. It's not that simple. There are times when you just have to agree to something even when you think it's wrong. Mugen: Bullshit. Don't spend your life making excuses to yourself. You're the one who decides how to live your life.
Okuro: If you have friends, you should stay with them. Fuu: Those jerks are no friends of mine… Okuro: Once you have traveled with someone, they become like family. You are not alone in this world.
Jin: Did you know that Okuro man? Fuu: I have to help him! I owe him my life! Jin: I see that you have a strong sense of duty. Fuu: Duty will only go out of style when the world ends.
it fucking bothers me when people write postseries fic with Mugen/Fuu or Jin/Fuu. it did not, will not, and should not end in any of those cases. they were never better together than when it was the three of them, and it should always stay that way. I just can't see Fuu being in a relationship with either of them - they are tied together by bonds that are similar to that of a family, which in a way, is stronger than that of a romantic relationship. they protected and cared for one another in ways that none of them had ever experienced in their lives, and to develop that bond into something more romantic seems so wrong. I think that because of the possibility of that happening (plus many other things - Mugen is still a wanted criminal, Jin killed Kagetoki, a high ranking member of the government, and Fuu may or may not still be chased by the Shogunate; they all still have their own personal things that they feel they have to face on their own. plus the whole goal of the journey had been achieved) they HAD to separate themselves from
