Rating: PG
Summary: For 1sentence, though I don’t have a formal claim there; I just thought it’d be fun to try out so I kind of snagged from it! It was a lot harder than it looked, and a lot of these sentences are... lame. And lots of run-on sentences and abuse of semi-colans ftw!

#01 - Walking
He was gone the first time their son started walking, and she wondered if she would always be destined to stay behind as they walked away.
#02 - Waltz
Whenever she summoned the protection from the rivers, he was the only one who saw the way her eyes danced, the way her lips swayed, and the way her body seemed to float only ever to his side, always.
#03 - Wishes
“I only want to be with you,” he promised her, and then had to let go and turn away from his home.
#04 - Wonder
“When’s Father coming home?” her son asked her one day, and she had to bite back the grimace on her face as she wondered the same thing.
#05 - Worry
Every time she coughed in her sleeve, his eyes strayed to the white cloth, searching for any blood, the words of comfort lodged in his throat as soon as she dismisses his guilt with a smile.
#06 - Whimsy
She tries not to dream about the life they could have led, had she been strong enough.
#07 - Waste/Wasteland
Their son never returned to the wasteland that was once called Suwa; he carried his memories in his heart instead.
#08 - Whiskey and rum
In other towns, whenever he drank with his men, his alcohol-loosened tongue always sprang back to the virtues and values of his beautiful wife.
#09 - War
She kissed every new, angry scar on his skin and ran her hands down his war-torn skin; he surrendered to her completely.
#10 - Weddings
She was the one to ask him, and he spent the entire day flailing in the most masculine of manners.
#11 - Birthday
Their son was born in the same month as that time years ago, when they first met in the fields of Suwa, young and hopelessly in love.
#12 - Blessing
“Go, and return home safely,” she whispered as he kissed her hair, even as her heart screamed out for him to stay by her side.
#13 - Bliss
“He looks just like you,” she murmured, holding her newborn son in her arms before beaming up at her husband (who looked as if he were about to fall over), “I’m so glad.”
#14 - Burning
There were times when her lungs would burn and she would choke, hacking up blood and curling into herself-it was the only time he ever felt powerless.
#15 - Breathing
Every night he’d hold her close enough so that their breathing coincided, one inhale and one exhale.
#16 - Breaking
Every time he had to leave, a piece of her heart would break off and fly away with him.
#17 - Belief
She told herself he’d always come back-that reassurance was all she had left.
#18 - Balloon
She made him giddy, lighter than air-and because of that he’d long since given up hope on not being teased by his men.
#19 - Balcony
No matter how far away she was, he would always find her again.
#20 - Bane
He longed for a peaceful life with his family, and knew it was impossible.
#21 - Quiet
He fell to his knees beside her and kissed her soundly on the mouth; words were never needed.
#22 - Quirks
Her favorite thing about making him blush was that his ears turned pink first.
#23 - Question
“Why can’t Father protect Suwa here?” their son asked one day, peering up at him with a small pout; she didn’t answer because she often thought the same thing when she was feeling lost.
#24 - Quarrel
The only time they ever fought was after he told her she shouldn’t linger or worry-her response was a slap to a face and a command that she would always pray for his safety.
#25 - Quitting
While they watched their son grow, laugh, play, and change, it served as constant reminder why neither of them would ever give up.
#26 - Jump
They met as children, after she tried to jump from the tree’s lowest branch and he caught her, holding her protectively to his chest (before falling over spectacularly).
#27 - Jester
She teased him only because he reacted so vividly, though her teasing was mild and gentle in comparison to how his men reacted.
#28 - Jousting
It wasn’t until she finally shoved him down and kissed him that he stopped teasing her about being so stubborn-now he merely stated it with pride.
#29 - Jewel
He kissed the jewels on her forehead, one kiss at a time, smiling against her skin.
#30 - Just
She knew by the look in his eyes that he hated to see her confined to a life of servitude while fighting against a sickness; she shook her head at these accusations and reminded him, “If I can bring some protection to this world, for only a moment, then the decision is just.”
#31 - Smirk
The first time they’d met he’d smirked arrogantly; she’d proceeded to “accidentally” trip him into the river as he pranced by.
#32 - Sorrow
The nights without him were always the worst.
#33 - Stupidity
She’d tried to hide her sickness, but he had noticed within days and chided her for it; she tried to ignore the pain in his eyes.
#34 - Serenade
“The Earth is always singing,” she told her son one day as she prayed, and thought that maybe the whistle of wind through the trees was the sound of her husband’s footsteps returning to them.
#35 - Sarcasm
He was always joking, always teasing-he had since they were children-but every time he left with an unspoken “I love you” she knew that he was and always would be honest.
#36 - Sordid
She always dutifully cleaned the mud from her husband and her son’s faces, and expertly dodged their attempts to grab her.
#37 - Soliloquy
In winter, she would go for walks by herself, wrapping the shawl he’d given her around her shoulders and ducking her head, whispering to herself, “Please come home.”
#38 - Sojourn
She felt the kekkai break, felt her eyes dim, felt the least beat of her heart usher her soul to wherever he was.
#39 - Share
In the days when her husband was gone from her side, she found solace in tracing her son’s shared features with her fingertips, smiling lovingly down at him.
#40 - Solitary
There was no body beside her in her grave.
#41 - Nowhere
Their son never did find his bones.
#42- Neutral
“I’m nothing like Father,” her son protested, looking stricken; she smiled and ran a thumb across his cheekbone, tracing the familiar stubborn lines and familiar torn expression she’d recognize anywhere.
#43 - Nuance
He smoothed his lips over her knuckles while his eyes smiled.
#44 - Near
She was the last thing he thought of when he went to sleep at night, by her side, and the first thing he was thankful for when he woke up.
#45 - Natural
He only dreamed of finding her again.
#46 - Horizon
Whenever he looked over his shoulder as he left Suwa, no matter the distance, his eyes would find hers.
#47 - Valiant
And as she died, she knew that this time she would be the one to find him.
#48 - Virtuous
The night before their son was born, he kissed her swollen belly and felt her fingers tangle in his hair-and he felt as if everything would be as it should be, always.
#49 - Victory
“You’re the only one I’ll ever love.”
#50 - Defeat
With a powerful, painful squeeze in his heart he felt the kekkai fade away in just the moment that he lost his footing, and his body fell claim to the monster looming above him.
