northernvixen: (Exasperated)

[personal profile] northernvixen 2012-03-03 10:45 am (UTC)(link)
It's natural. It's... How can humans be so distant to each other?
slayerofgiants: (Wander)

[personal profile] slayerofgiants 2012-03-03 10:50 am (UTC)(link)
It is not distant to us. Besides, it varies from person to person, really. I just...do not like being so physically close too much.

[unless you are Mono.]
northernvixen: (Suspicious)

[personal profile] northernvixen 2012-03-03 10:55 am (UTC)(link)
It is entirely strange.
slayerofgiants: (Looking away)

[personal profile] slayerofgiants 2012-03-03 11:00 am (UTC)(link)
Well, we are in a place that brings in people from different worlds. Strange is to be expected.
northernvixen: (Wistful)

[personal profile] northernvixen 2012-03-03 11:05 am (UTC)(link)
Yes... I wish I had not come here.
slayerofgiants: (Wander)

[personal profile] slayerofgiants 2012-03-03 11:07 am (UTC)(link)
A sentiment I share.
northernvixen: (Sadness)

[personal profile] northernvixen 2012-03-03 11:16 am (UTC)(link)
What reason do you have for welcoming death?
slayerofgiants: (Looking away)

[personal profile] slayerofgiants 2012-03-03 11:22 am (UTC)(link)
[considering if he wants to say anything...]

[there are several reasons, but...he supposes he can tell her the most important.]

It was for someone I love.
northernvixen: (Sadness)

[personal profile] northernvixen 2012-03-03 11:24 am (UTC)(link)
[Leiko snaps her fan open and hides her face, not wanting Wander to see her cry.]
slayerofgiants: (Wander)

[personal profile] slayerofgiants 2012-03-03 11:40 am (UTC)(link)
Um...

[he will sit here until she is ready to talk again.]
northernvixen: (Sadness)

[personal profile] northernvixen 2012-03-03 11:53 am (UTC)(link)
It's the most horrible pain in the world, isn't it?
northernvixen: (Sadness)

[personal profile] northernvixen 2012-03-03 11:52 pm (UTC)(link)
Would you like to speak of your lost love?
northernvixen: (Wistful)

[personal profile] northernvixen 2012-03-04 07:02 am (UTC)(link)
Would you listen to me speak of mine?
northernvixen: (Content)

[personal profile] northernvixen 2012-03-04 07:17 am (UTC)(link)
I was Taiyoukai in my home. I think the closest human equivalent is 'queen', or perhaps 'empress'. Can you imagine the power I wielded, Wander?
northernvixen: (Content)

[personal profile] northernvixen 2012-03-04 07:51 am (UTC)(link)
I controlled a full quarter of the known world.

[Well no we know there's a world outside of Japan but shh I'm making myself sound important.]

There was one problem. My kingdom sat directly on top of a different kingdom.
slayerofgiants: (Looking up)

[personal profile] slayerofgiants 2012-03-04 05:22 pm (UTC)(link)
[just sitting quietly and listening.]
northernvixen: (Wistful)

[personal profile] northernvixen 2012-03-05 01:12 am (UTC)(link)
The human kingdom and the youkai kingdoms occupied the same space...we were constantly at war. The humans challenged us to a single battle, the winner of which would take complete control of Japan.

We were arrogant. We agreed. But when they named their terms...the battle was to be fought by a game of Go.

[That game set that she has with her.]
northernvixen: (Content)

[personal profile] northernvixen 2012-03-05 02:32 am (UTC)(link)
I will teach you to play later.
slayerofgiants: (Profile)

[personal profile] slayerofgiants 2012-03-05 05:26 am (UTC)(link)
[nodding]

What happened next?
northernvixen: (Sadness)

[personal profile] northernvixen 2012-03-05 05:40 am (UTC)(link)
I was the only one there who knew how to play at all. So I faced their champion.

[weak laugh]

I was bested by a human a fraction of my age. But something happened while I was playing against him...
