WEEK 3 - NIGHTSHADE

[foundationmods]

Finally, the whole truth of this affair had come out.

The Witch they had known as Yuuko was actually Nirrti, the Witch of Misfortune.
And Watanuki was actually the real Witch of Dimensions, as the two of them fought over the power that title brought, as well as the name and identity of a long dead woman...🗈

Though things had finally changed, perhaps it wouldn't be for the better. Nirrti herself seemed much different than how she was before, and Watanuki was the one who had brought all of them here...with that in mind, it was hard to tell how their future would shake out...

However, it wasn't all bad. A few more places were open to them, the second floor becoming a much more inviting place to be, and there was still everything they had gotten used to before. And now, they all knew that Nirrti's promises were nothing but empty air...

...or, perhaps, now they would merely change.

It's alright. She's healthy now, and that's what's important.

[Kurama absently stirs the currently in-progress dish on the stove.]

If you'd like spicy, I can make some. I'm honestly just making dishes at random at the moment.

[ I mean, she kind of would, but. ]

It's been a long time since I had any with him. It might be nice to have this kind again.

[ You know, once in a while. ]

Someone you miss, then?

[He gets down a bowl and offers it to her.]

[youkaiwatch]

[ thanks you're a bro ]

Mm, we were supposed to have gotten married someday.

[Kurama's tone is gentle and delicate.]

Is that the past tense of 'and then the Foundation happened' or something before that?

[youkaiwatch]

[ That's... complicated. ]

Both, I guess? A lot happened. He had a falling out with the rest of us in the Bureau a few years ago and left. We never really broke up, so I figured he'd come back to me eventually.

...that sounds like a difficult position to be in. Waiting like that.

[youkaiwatch]

I don't know. It wasn't fun, obviously, but it wasn't as if I was going to move on to someone else either way, so waiting wasn't really a problem.

[byanyother_name]

Would it be terribly rude to ask if that's out of depth of emotion or bitterness?

[Kurama turns the heat down on his current cooking project.]

[youkaiwatch]

Do I seem that bitter?

[ She laughs, but she's not, really. At least not toward Jiro. ]

We've been together for most of our lives, so I'm just not interested in being with anyone else.
