Fifteenth Case

[charmcuffs.livejournal.com]

[ not too far from the inn, Kazuha is taking inventory of... a bunch of omamori and various assorted charms. ]

Mmm... it feels like a lot more people need these than the last time I did this. But I didn't think I'd still have all of these from the trips and the time Heiji got sick and everything... I was going to give the innkeeper one, too, but... maybe Ai-chan will want one.

-- Aha, I remember these! They were supposed to be for good luck and keeping anything bad from happening, and this one was for getting lost, but I bought that one before I came here.

... Obviously didn't work.

((Just strolling through fuck-my-canon lane, but if you're a friend of hers and you haven't gotten an omamori yet or you just feel like chilling with her, feel free to hit her up.))

Kazuha--

[charmcuffs.livejournal.com]

What?

[stolethegame.livejournal.com]

*tightening his grip* I'm not important right now.

[charmcuffs.livejournal.com]

You are! And worrying you was the last thing I wanted--

[stolethegame.livejournal.com]

*shaking his head* Kazuha, that's great and all, and I appreciate it, really, but I'dve worried either way. Just... be honest with yourself.

[charmcuffs.livejournal.com]

I have...

[stolethegame.livejournal.com]

*doesn't want to step on her toes, but* ... Be honest with me then?

[charmcuffs.livejournal.com]

...

It's a little easier not to think about it when you're here.

[stolethegame.livejournal.com]

... *squeezes for a "hug"* Then I won't go anywhere.

[charmcuffs.livejournal.com]

[ breathing out after a moment ] Thanks.

[stolethegame.livejournal.com]

*... lightening up a little bit* Any time.

[charmcuffs.livejournal.com]

[ smiling into his shirt ]

[stolethegame.livejournal.com]

*not noticing, but smiling a little himself not that it seems she's relaxing*

[charmcuffs.livejournal.com]

I'm used to it, y'know...

[stolethegame.livejournal.com]

I know. Now you can be used to it with me here.

[charmcuffs.livejournal.com]

... [ shifting a little to reach for his hand ]

[stolethegame.livejournal.com]

...? *taking it*

[charmcuffs.livejournal.com]

[ and working her fingers in between his ] Your hand's warm.

[stolethegame.livejournal.com]

*giving her hand a squeeze once she does* Is it?

[charmcuffs.livejournal.com]

[ squeezing back ] Yeah.

[stolethegame.livejournal.com]

*rubbing her arm with his other hand*

[charmcuffs.livejournal.com]

[ relaxing a little more at that ]

[stolethegame.livejournal.com]

You want to stay here until it's over?

[charmcuffs.livejournal.com]

Maybe for an hour...

[stolethegame.livejournal.com]

That's it?
