ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip)

“Yeah..” She groaned, rolling to put her face against the back of the couch, trying to block out the light coming in through the window.
 
“Yeah..” He heard her muffled reply, Megohime laying unmoving from her spot on the couch.
 
Megohime turned her head after a moment, looking at him with groggy, glassy eyes, clearly still drunk from the night before; what a lightweight. “Oh.. never mind..” She laid her head down, clearly still needing a bit more help.
 
“Probably..” She mumbled. “I’m starving.” She said, shifting to her comfortable on the couch, finding it not nearly as comfortable as she thought it would be.
 
Masamune wasn't by any means a grand chef, but he knew how to work a stove. He made diced potatoes and eggs with toast and some sausage. Smelled pretty good. He returned to her with the plate and offered it, "Here, boss.."
 
This was such a different side of Megohime, one he hadn’t seen before. She sat up and took the plate, offering a mumbled thank you before digging in. She ate in silence, looking rather zoned out; she looked like a normal person who just had too much to drink the night before, not some mafia boss. Her hair was messed and she smelled like booze still, and there he was, cooking breakfast, making coffee, far from the hired killer look he usually carried.
 
A thought entered Masamune’s head: he could take Megohime, and together the both of them could start a new life, one away from violence and killing.
Megohime looked up from her plate, mouth full of eggs before holding the plate up for Masamune, offering him some of the food.
 
He reached out and took the fork, taking a couple bites before nodding in satisfaction. He could totally have a peaceful life with her now. She wouldn't have to worry about running a mob, she could just be with him.
 
Megohime gave a nod herself, then resumed eating as normal.
Masamune would be able to pull it off, all he had to do was escape Kojurou, find a new place for Megohime and himself.
 
He would have to get rid of his phone, for sure. Get her to a different apartment without anyone knowing. He would really have to really think about this one.
 
His heart beat hard in his chest, and for the first time in years, he felt hopeful. Together they might both have a chance at a normal life, at happiness.
 
“What..?” She looked up from her empty plate, swallowing down the last of the food, looking at him with groggy eyes.
 
She nodded, standing and taking her plate to the sink before moving to the bathroom to wash up from the night before.
 
Megohime was clearly warming up to Masamune more and more, talking with him more and even trying her hand at cooking- which she was awful at.
“How did we meet..?” Megohime asked, always trying to learn something new about her passed life.
 
They sat on the couch together, Megohime sitting on the opposite end of Masamune. “You rescued me? From what?”
