Awesome, really awesome. <3 Nice touch, characterizing Murata's "rebellious" streak.

[apapazukamori]

Thank you! Hee, the more I thought about it, the more it seemed like that's what he's doing. He doesn't particularly want to never see the Shinou again, but he'd probably appreciate it if the Shinou acknowledged that he's not the same Sage that was running around 4000 years ago. XD

I love this is such good characterisation!

[apapazukamori]

Hee, thank you! I'm glad they both feel in-character. The Shinou is sometimes hard for me to get a handle on. 'Cause he's so sneaky.

Absolutely lovely. Poor Murata. :c

Circular, unending, constant; all words that could be used to describe the relationship between the first king of Shin Makoku and the man who had stood at his side as the Great Sage.
And I just knew I was in for a lovely ride.♥ This was great~

[apapazukamori]

Uwah~! Thank you. :) I'm glad you liked it.
