☾dreams the forty-ninth

[wishyuumay]

Variations of a theme. A small taste of "perhaps" and "what if"s. What came of it, I wonder. Regret? Relief? Gratitude?

We are all on our chosen paths for a reason.

[private to Clow; warded]

That was unexpected. Did you see this coming?

[filtered to her kids]I hope you did not fare too badly. There are some of you I've not

...Yuuko? Is there a way to change paths, mii~?

[wishyuumay]

Not from the past; not without a hefty price. But for the future, certainly.

[smilenipaa]

What if all the different paths I've you try lead to the same future?

[wishyuumay]

Then sometimes, outside intervention is necessary. Changing the future is never easy, nor possible even, but given both determination and sincerity... hitsuzen may grant it to you.

[smilenipaa]

What do you mean by outside intervention? And what's hitsuzen?

[wishyuumay]

Some call it fate or destiny; it is what guides our paths and it is, in turn, guided by our decisions. As the past two days have showcased so well.

As for outside intervention... well, my shop is one form of it. There are others. Deities' of certain worlds, for another; the term sometimes applied is "miracles".

[smilenipaa]

I've never been able to break fate. I don't remember the past two days...

Your... shop? Are you saying your shop can grant a miracle for me? M-mii~, the guardian deity of my world is growing too weak to help me.

[wishyuumay]

No? Perhaps that is a kindness in itself.

They are called wishes in my shop. I can help you, Rika-chan, but it will cost you. I can do nothing without proper payment.

[smilenipaa]

Nothing at all.

...payment? What will it cost me exactly?

[wishyuumay]

That depends on what precisely your wish is, child.

[ooc: Do you want the wish to actually be granted?]

[smilenipaa]

...mii~. What did it cost for your other customers? Just curious...

[ooc: Haha, not really. :D She'll think about it. Her problem will be solved when I get her to canon update. XD;]

[wishyuumay]

It varies with the strength and content of the wish. After all, we have to balance the price and the wish, then customize it to what you have to offer in payment.

[ooc: Okay, just checking. :D]
