Sengoku BASARA: Tensions Rising [DarkMudkip/Jikkah]

[Jikkah]

Jingu slid open the door and entered, closing the door behind her and moving to sit before him. "Gomenasai." She said. "But you seem to be rather troubled and I fear your thoughts may become overwhelming.... Was it Jakuzure?"

 

[DarkMudkip]

Kojurou nodded slightly. Indeed, he had been rather concerned; she was so young and to be such a cold blooded person. Kojurou couldn't phathom how it was possible

 

[Jikkah]

"I see." Jingu frowned at the look on his face. "I am sorry that things were not the way they seemed with her..." She said softly.

 

[DarkMudkip]

Kojurou shook his head, "Its fine. It was my fault for lowering my guard."

 

[Jikkah]

"I think she had everyone fooled... It is best not to dwell on it too much." She said.

 

[DarkMudkip]

Kojurou made a noise, staring at his lap

 

[Jikkah]

Jingu bit her lip, then reached out and put her hand on Kojurou's. "Please, Kojurou-dono... Do not blame yourself for this."

 

[DarkMudkip]

Kojurou looked at their hands and blushed, pulling his away, "I'm fine."

 

[Jikkah]

"Please excuse me for touching you so freely." She bowed to him, cheeks pink.

 

[DarkMudkip]

He shook his head, "Its all right.."

 

[Jikkah]

Jingu nodded. "Shall I make you some tea..? Maybe we could... Sit and have tea together?" She offered.

 

[DarkMudkip]

Kojurou blushed and nodded, "That would be nice.."

 

[Jikkah]

She nodded and bowed to him, standing up and leaving the room to make tea.

 

[DarkMudkip]

Kojurou sighed heavily and made sure his hair was still kempt

 

[Jikkah]

Jingu returned shortly with the tea, pouring some into a cup and handing it to Kojurou before pouring herself a cup.

 

[DarkMudkip]

"Arigatou..." Kojurou muttered and took a drink

 

[Jikkah]

Jingu sat in silence, a soft frown on her face. "The courier was sent for. "

 

[DarkMudkip]

Kojurou nodded, "Excellent..." He muttered

 

[Jikkah]

Jingu frowned more. "Kojurou-dono..." She said. "What is troubling you?"

 

[DarkMudkip]

"Nothing...thinking...gomen..." He muttered

 

[Jikkah]

Jingu nodded and sipped her tea. "Hai.." She said softly.

 

[DarkMudkip]

"So...you've been here a while...do you enjoy it here?" He asked

 

[Jikkah]

Jingu perked and nodded. "Yes, it is very nice here." She said. "I am glad you allowed for me to stay for so long."

 

[DarkMudkip]

"Even though we have not yet begun our attack on the Western Army, we are glad to have you here. And you're more than welcome to stay here even after your services are no longer needed." He told her

 

[Jikkah]

Jingu bowed lowly to him. "I am truly grateful to you." She said. "Arigatou, Kojurou-dono."
