"shall we go together? this way, you can keep warm, and i can carry more things." the okiyas have been home to the both of them for ages; soft, gentle pats to his body given.

He looked at her quietly before answering her.

"I will try to keep that in mind, though I will have to leave the comfort of the house to get things for my girls and boys from time to time.*

⠀

she shall let him huddle for warmth, even going so far as to keep him close to her bosom, to keep his cold snout warm.

"don't go out in the cold alone," she murmurs; such amount of care is unprecedented, and only to him. "relax."

⠀

[𝙃𝙞𝙠𝙖𝙧𝙪 @Kitsune_Shiro_]

He opened his eyes, slowly blinking at her before poking her hand with his snout.

The kitsune was currently in his animal form, too lazy to keep up his human appearance.

The Shogun was one of the few people who were privileged to see this side of him.

⠀

"keep warm still; i will bathe you in hot spring water once you have warmed." unspoken is the care of the shogun to her familiar, as she pets his snowy head.

⠀

[𝙃𝙞𝙠𝙖𝙧𝙪 @Kitsune_Shiro_]

He was lying right there, his head resting on her lap as he nuzzled closer to get some warmth.

The winters were indeed harsh, it's best to stay close.

here, arataki. i shall bestow unto you the training chopsticks; go forth and educate the uncultured in basic dining. receive the pohroro.

⠀

[—– 𝒂𝐥𝐦𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭𝐲 𝐖𝐀𝐑𝐋𝐎𝐑𝐃 . @KARAKURAIDEN]

⠀

it's the easiest thing in the world. perhaps they need the pohroro training chopsticks for children.

"matching tassels for our obi," mei beams; delicate fingers brushing against another set to give him her pristinely made handiwork. "happy birthday, brother; come, let us celebrate the age of your absolute happiness."

⠀

⠀

the best of wishes for the imperial princess's most esteemed brother, @thcndering; regal kimono set aside for something more simple, as she witnesses his kaburenjo performance with the twinkling eyes of yesteryear.

and once he is done, she takes it upon herself to seek him out backstage; they have yet to steal themselves away from the tiresome adorations of the crowd, as she presents to him her small gift.

the shogun is absolutely fine; preparing the new calendar for the new year. where is her kitsune, her most faithful companion? the winters are harsh —– best be by her side.

⠀

[𝙃𝙞𝙠𝙖𝙧𝙪 @Kitsune_Shiro_]

@KARAKURAIDEN

He couldn't help but wonder how his Shogun was doing.

[—– 𝒂𝐥𝐦𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭𝐲 𝐖𝐀𝐑𝐋𝐎𝐑𝐃 . @KARAKURAIDEN]

⠀

it would help; i shall make one for you in the morn. but ah...it would make your writing larger, yes?

( though the world may be smaller, she will always remain. funny; she's in high spirits this season in the land of her dear one. )

⠀

[𝐼𝑙 𝑪𝑎𝑝𝑖𝑡𝑎𝑛𝑜. @bIoodstainblade]

No — this is fine.

( Not like it's the very first time for him either. He has learned to come to terms with how... frail and small the world around is; for the most part, anyway. )

( and how tiny that pen is! chuckling, she places a hand on his free one; her hand is so comically smaller than his. )

lyubimy, would you like a larger pen?

⠀

[𝐼𝑙 𝑪𝑎𝑝𝑖𝑡𝑎𝑛𝑜. @bIoodstainblade]

( Not too much of a fan of the labor, but it is a must. It is one thing to lead well — it is another thing to keep the entire boat afloat.

Dutifully does he get to writing, fingers curled around an almost comically small pen in comparison. )

( no rest for the wicked, as she too has paperwork. a groan as she drinks her bai jiu; they'll tackle the paperwork together. )

⠀

[𝐼𝑙 𝑪𝑎𝑝𝑖𝑡𝑎𝑛𝑜. @bIoodstainblade]

( SLAMS down a whole stack of paperwork on his desk - he has work to do. No rest for the wicked. )

⠀

it's just his first few five steps of a spar. she stops anyhow, pressing a soft kiss to helmeted cheek. "hello there, captain. lovely to see you in the morning," she smiles.

⠀

[𝐼𝑙 𝑪𝑎𝑝𝑖𝑡𝑎𝑛𝑜. @bIoodstainblade]

Could very easily put this to a stop himself. But that wouldn't be particularly fun now, wouldn't it?

https://t.co/bOakE7xShX

[—– 𝒂𝐥𝐦𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭𝐲 𝐖𝐀𝐑𝐋𝐎𝐑𝐃 . @KARAKURAIDEN]

⠀

it's his daily sparring, only it got earlier. she loves him too. 😐 ( 🥰 )

⠀

[𝐼𝑙 𝑪𝑎𝑝𝑖𝑡𝑎𝑛𝑜. @bIoodstainblade]

HE JUST GOT OUT OF HIS ROOM? HELP????
