The man whom called himself Sogyo had moved silently through the night...taking particular care not to be seen, heard, or even remotely noticed in any way. He still wanted to keep himself segregated from this society, to live as a hermit and spend the rest of his existence dead as he should rightfully be.

...But he was still a man of many weaknesses. And one of those weaknesses was the person he was treading so close to society to see...perhaps for the last time. He sighed as he entered the tent...but would not pull his cowl away. Not yet. His eyes caught what little light there was though, making it clear to Souji who he was.

"Your illness has gotten worse...," he said in a low, forlorn tone.

As soon as he heard the flap open to the tent, he smiled gently. Waiting until the other spoke, he slowly opened his eyes and pushed himself away from the wall, sitting up properly with his legs tucked under him. It was so hard to turn and look at him, knowing that the other man would soon retreat back into the forest and disappear. "Only a little. It's nothing I can't handle."

Finally gathering up the courage, Okita smiled up at the shrouded figure at the doorway. He hadn't needed to see the eyes to know who it was - only one person knew where he stayed at night and only one had that voice. "Sadness doesn't suit you, Jushirou-san," he said, holding out his hand. He knew this wasn't like their other meetings, but he couldn't help but try and maintain some false sense of security in pretending this was just any other day. "Come inside and close the door. Would you like something to drink? I have tea."

Sogyo pulled the mask down, revealing for the first time in person his face...it was Jushirou Ukitake beneath the cowl after all, though he knew that Souji would never have questioned it. Souji would always know no matter how hard Sogyo tried to hide that tired, old face.

"Tea sounds nice...," Sogyo spoke as he moved to sit in front of Souji. He wanted to smile for the other man...but he could not find the will to force it. He could never be anything but himself before this man. It was part of the reason he had loved him...

Slipping up from his seat, Okita padded over to a separate corner of the room, busying himself with readying tea. He had hidden supplies here earlier in the day, hoping to reduce the load he had to carry with him at night in an effort not to get caught. He had to cover the entire distance of the camps quickly and without being seen, which was difficult for someone lacking those sorts of powers. "Where are you staying? I hope it's not anywhere too drafty or you'll catch a cold and your entire plan will go to naught ( ... )
