we've been wandering in the dark
[It's been two weeks since Shigure first came in to check on Mitama, to see if she was actually doing work in the stables. Since that day, he's found time in his schedule to come here to meet with Mitama every day without fail. It helps that he usually doesn't need to assist his sister with her chores, or to help his father or mother out any. He doesn't feel bad about helping Mitama out at all, since he'd be in here tending to the pegasi anyway. And besides, it's nice to see Cerulean and Mitama bonding like this.
It's also really nice to get to bond with Mitama, but that's... well, that's not really something he's sure how to admit, or if he should admit it. Would she take it poorly? He isn't sure. It can be a bit hard to read Mitama sometimes.
But that's part of why he enjoys spending so much time with her. She's a fascinating individual and she's witty and smart, and sometimes she still teases him, but even that's gotten to a point where he rarely has to make excuses and run off. He can usually laugh it off and eventually she'll drop it, probably because she's taking pity on him. Still, he looks forward to these meetings more than any other part of his day, and today's no exception.
He enters quietly so as not to interrupt Mitama and Cerulean, but once he gets in, he holds up a hand in greeting and begins to tend to the other pegasi. Only when Mitama has reached a stopping point will he speak up.]
How has your day been? I hope your father hasn't been troubling you too much lately.
[He's certainly tried to stick his nose into it over the past two weeks, but his mother and father both have told him that he really needs to mind his own affairs on this one. Azama is... a bit of a difficult person, as they put it. Still, he longs to make Mitama's life just a bit easier, and she does seem to be enjoying this job... so things are fine now, right?]

[He'll follow, of course! He's not really interested in letting go of her hand any time soon.]
no subject
[She's actually gonna go sit at the base of the tree--he's more than free to join her, she's gonna just. Lean against the tree while she sits, just kinda getting herself comfortable.]
Utterly breathtaking. A still, peaceful world / shared with my treasure and I / in nature's embrace...
[...She does yawn a bit, adjusting to get herself a little comfortable.]
no subject
I'm sure it's a wonderful place to take a nap, if you'd like.
[He doesn't mind, and who knows, maybe he'll fall asleep too.]
no subject
Mitama actually has to take a second when Shigure joins her, and she opens her eyes a bit to see him offering his shoulder for her and...well, honestly, it sees her cheeks burning again as she allows herself to lean against him, gently laying her head upon his shoulder. It's...nice, this is nice.]
I would agree wholeheartedly; certainly more comfortable than the hay piles over toward the camp. [...] And you're...certainly more comfortable than them as well...
[help, she's actually getting embarrassed......]
no subject
I'm glad you think so. I don't mind serving as a pillow.
Your comfort is very / important to me so please / rest as long as you like.
...Wait, I think that was too many syllables.
[oh my god he is not a poet, but he tried???]
no subject
Mitama does peer up a bit, opening her eyes somewhat blearily before just...kind of wrapping one of her arms around his. And then very promptly the other and she's just. Practically cuddling, alright.]
One too many syllables...in the first and third verse...but I must admit, your grasp for a first timer is far from dire... [...Gods she just sounds like she's dozing off here.] You should try again...but count the syllables...in your head, and then...
[She trails off there, starting to nod right off.]
no subject
Thank you for your kind words. Rest well, Mitama.
[His own words are quiet and once she's drifted off, he'll relax a little more as well. A nap really does sound good right about now...]
