65th Journey [Voice]

Did this work at last? Man, it’s hard to make this strange gizmo work. There’s nothing like this in Kei or in Kou.

Huh. I’ve never thought I would be around here a complete year, but soon it’ll be my anniversary. I came to this strange new world in the Fifth Month, last year, 2008? I never asked but 2008 of what? Reign of these deities? Adjusting ( Read more... )

[Yo, just hanging out in the kitchen munching on a peach. He has no idea what's going on yet rofl.]

Stop following me!

[She throws her arms up in frustration, looking shelter inside the kitchen, slamming the door shut behind her. When she turned, oh surprise, another unexpected guest.

She was feeling snappier than unusual.]

And who the hell are you? Why are you eating my food?

[Youko's yelling makes him look up and he stares when she storms in. He's stunned for a moment since he's never seen Youko act like this before.]

Er... Hi to you, too. What do you mean, 'who am I'? It's me, Rokuta! And I live here.

Rin'd mentioned a Rokuta-kun. Is that you?

[She asks after calming her worn nerves. The Taiho had strained her emotions with his obstinate arrogance.]

You live here, huh? Funny that. I don't even know who you are.

I just said that was my name... [Slightly annoyed with how she snapped at him, though he quickly realizes she must be cursed. Especially after admitting not knowing who he is.]

Forgot me again, huh... [Sighs] I'm the Taiho of En, Enki. Also known as Rokuta.

Huh?!

[Her expression changed immediately, eyes widened in shock. Another Kirin? Inside her household? Unlike with Keiki, she had nothing but praise to the En lords. She bows her head immediately, looking to excuse her behavior.]

I'm sorry, En Taiho! I-I didn't know!

[Well, he definitely wasn't expecting THAT reaction. He had figured maybe the curse had just erased her memories or messed with her mood. But this was... Now he really had no idea.]

Uhh... No need for that, Youko. But why are you...? You don't know who I am but you're familiar with the En Taiho?

[She lifted her head up to stare in confusion. She had to give a good impression, this would be a chance to get Rakushun in a decent standing if he get to end.]

You're mistaken me for someone else, Taiho, my name is Youshi. Why wouldn't I know about this? Please, you can stay and eat from my kitchen as long as you'll like.

Youshi? But that's... [Ah, he's beginning to figure it out now. Sort of. It would explain why she's bowing to him and being all... respectful. He can't get over how bizarre it is coming from Youko. He looks at the peach in his hand thoughtfully.]

Where were you born, then, Youshi?

Kei.

[She said almost curt, before catching her own harshness and adding in a softer voice.]

But I'm staying in Kou.

[Aha. So that was it... Enki concludes this curse has something to do with those "alternate realities". Ironic he was just talking about it with Youko. He scratches his head a bit and sighs.]

Right... You probably fled the kingdom, then, because... [Realizes Keiki must be really confused by now. Too late to warn him now...]

We had no choice about it; the women didn't.

[Her voice had a bitter ring before dropping the harshness into curiosity.]

Have you been in the City for long time, En Taiho? You should live in a place with better category than this one.

I guess... that's true.

Ah... I've been here for a month and a half, so I guess that's a little while. [He sighs and shrugs helplessly.] I would If I could but.... er, this is all we get.

So, uh... Youshi, tell me a little about yourself. [Trying to figure out just what's different and what isn't.] Do you live in Kou alone?

A month, Taiho?! [She was taken aback by these news and thought about En.]

No, I... When my father took me out of Kei, the youma attacked us. He was killed with my uncles, my papers were lost in the attack and I had to stay illegally.

I was picked on the countryside by someone who gave me shelter all these years.

Give or take a few weeks, yeah...

Hmm... That's quite the story. But I wonder if... Who're you stay with, then?

Reply

[action] reginagloriae March 9 2009, 02:54:38 UTC
That's weird. I've never seen you around.

I was picked by a gentle woman and her son. He's a couple of years older than me.
