	Keiji mutters a few choice curses, half in regards to the memory and half at himself for getting careless. He directs a palm thrust at her arm, hoping to dislodge her grip. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	She releases his arm, then goes for something of a shove. "I've tried to be better about talking about him too much, Keiji... is it really going to be so bad?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Her quickly letting go caused his thrust to hit nothing but air, allowing the opening for her shoe to drive him back. He stopped abruptly upon her question. He was quiet for a time. "Honestly? ..I will not know that until he's standing across from me." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	His posture slackens to the point where he almost seems smaller. "I am..sorry, Amiko-chan." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	hotlittlehands 2011-12-13 10:08 pm UTC (link)
	She shakes her head. "You don't need to be sorry. Everything is going to be okay. We'll get through this. I know it." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	She nods and smiles back. "Shall we have a glass of water?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	clawed_progeny 2011-12-13 10:28 pm UTC (link)

	"Just my usual duties to the International Misha-Humbling Society," she says, smiling. "He's well." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	clawed_progeny 2011-12-14 07:19 pm UTC (link)

	"Yes. Misha's always managed to make me happy, even when I was younger and tried to resist..." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	clawed_progeny 2011-12-14 07:37 pm UTC (link)
	That pause caught his attention. "You were uncomfortable with your brother at one point?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	hotlittlehands 2011-12-14 07:39 pm UTC (link)
	She nods slightly. "I was young, and he was... born too soon. I wasn't ready. But I know my Lady-Mother would have understood." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	clawed_progeny 2011-12-14 07:41 pm UTC (link)
	He walks up to her, and takes in a soft, comforting embrace. "You did not want to believe your father could move on so soon?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

She enjoys being held. "That was a large part of it. I know now that it was just his bad habits. Not about how much he cared for her. But it was hard then. And there was more."

She stays right where she is, her eyes a little distant. "When he came to get me out of the foster care Uncle Kenuichio had allowed me to be put in, he intended to take me to America. I asked him why he couldn't just stay in Japan, and he said that with so many enemies, it would be too dangerous for the baby." She takes a breath. "I love him. I love Misha. But I hate New York. I've always hated it. I wasn't going to live there. I would not leave Japan for good when I had already lost so much. And I knew it was dangerous, but he'd never minded facing the danger for us before. Change was hard then, that was all. And I was a child, and sometimes when I saw Misha I wanted to be angry." Finally, she smiles and shrugs. "But I couldn't, because it's Misha."

	He listens patiently, rocking her a little in his arms. When she finishes, he kisses her on the forehead. "You're a stronger person than I am." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	hotlittlehands 2011-12-14 08:07 pm UTC (link)
	She holds him tight. "Nonsense. I had advantages, that's all." She smiles at him, eyes meeting his, and observing. "And look at you. Avidly not mentioning that... that my father is a bit of a slut. For me. I appreciate that, Keiji." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	clawed_progeny 2011-12-14 08:13 pm UTC (link)
	"Perhaps..." Keiji reddens a little in a combination of embarrassment and indignation. When he sufficiently composes himself to which he looks somewhat composed, he responds. "You're welcome, love." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	hotlittlehands 2011-12-14 08:24 pm UTC (link)
	She kisses his cheek. "And thank you for the workout." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	clawed_progeny 2011-12-14 08:32 pm UTC (link)
	He smiles a little boyishly, like a kid who just received a kiss from the girl he liked. "It was good for me, too." (Reply to this)(Parent)
