Already caught my interest.
So. Guess
So, guess (I think)
what I did yesterday.
Went to DisneyWorld?
No, no. Lemme give you a hint. It has to do with trying to fuck the only
girl you've ever loved and then trying to kill your best friend.
Hmm. Sounds like what I do on Tuesdays' then.
Damn. I told you.
I'd drop this line. It doesn't really sound like he didn't want to tell, and
doesn't work for me.
Well, shit. I mean, I could tell myself it really wasn't my fault. It
/was/
that fucking Hikou's water magic that made me do those things. I mean, who
in their right mind would try and rape the Priestess of Suzaku when she
has
seven stupendous protectors like the Seven Seishi of Suzaku.
But weren't four of them dead at the time? :)
Six, if you
include that one of them currently only has half a brain and none of his
former powers. Five, if you remember that one of them was the rapist.
Chiriko: Oh no! My dirty little secret has been uncovered at last.
It really wasn't... all just Hikou. What was it they said, that his power
drew out what was in the deepest, darkest recesses of your heart?
Sounds right.
Gods, I
knew I loved her, I never thought myself capable of doing such a thing.
Yes,
I talked enough shit about Tama (or Taka?) that Miaka threw herself off a
horse. Yes, I wanted her so bad it hurt. Yes, I enjoyed her flesh under my
hands, the mold of her breast, the soft, warm feel of her lips...
Why oh why didn't you just stick to hating women, Tasuki.
Hormones. Blame it on the hormones.
Here I am, back against this goddamn tree, sun coming down like we didn't
just see all hell trying to break lose in the form of a crapload of rain,
trying to avoid either of them. Sure I told them: Tasuki's here for you!
For
both of you! For the love of you he'll protect you! He'll protect you as
if
it didn't stab him right here in the chest everytime you two hold each
other! Because that's what a Seishi of Suzaku does! Puts everything he
feels
right /here/ where he can ignore it and fight the good fight!
Yep. Angst galore. :)
Good fight, my ass. What I really wanna do is char Tama (Taka!) into a
big,
flaming, crispy critter and then step all over him. Then I can make her
forget about him. Shit, anyone can make Miaka happier than that weakened
jerk.
What the hell am I saying?
Engaging in wishful thinking.
That smile of hers! It's so... full of fucking pity. "Tasuki. What
happened
before..."
"That shit? That was nothing. Just the damn spell. You heard what I said -
I'm gonna protect the two of you with my life. It's the least I can do." I
can really shovel it out, can't I? Too bad she sees right through me.
True. She tends to be a good judge of character when it comes to her
friends. Too gullible when it comes to her enemies, though.
"I know it wasn't. But, Tasuki, you know -- "
"Don't!" No! I can't hear this. "Don't say it."
I walk over to her and clasp her face tenderly between my hands. I know
what
I have to say. "Miaka." 'Course, then I stutter.
Nice addition. I like that. Planned speeches rarely go off as planned.
"Don't 'but' me! Shit! I already know what you're going to say!" I don't
mean to, but it comes out as a yell anyways. Quickly I quell my voice.
Won't
do to have her screaming again. And besides, there's only one thing I want
from her before I can be satisfied with what I have to do.
"Miaka... just let me kiss you one more time."
Miaka: What, you mean your last request for me isn't going to be to have hot
sex?! You jerk!
And you know what? I think I can do it now.
Me, Tasuki, a Seishi of Suzaku.
I'm going to protect those two. Even if it fucking kills me.
Very nice work. Little character introspective that flowed nicely. Seemed to
get Tasuki's inner voice down good. Enjoyed it.
