I'm still here.

Where do you want to meet?

[See? She's good. She's totally still here.]

[she sighs in relief when the response comes in, but Murasa doesn't relax just yet.]

deck

[she'll continue flying around the ship just in case she bumps into Ichirin. bumps through her.]

[She figures Murasa would be relieved, while she herself is... just as relieved. Almost. She'll show her emotions in person.

But she's waiting at the deck anyway. So Murasa will probably be the second to arrive.]

I'll be there.

[about half a minute later she bursts through the deck, slowly landing and making her way over to Ichirin.]

... How long was I gone?

[Ichirn sees Murasa coming, but ignores her question. The emotions she had been hiding when she got Murasa's message weren't about to stay hidden for long, leaving the nun looking completely unsure what to do or think.]

[So naturally so does what any ~~lover~~ crew member would do and takes off running towards the captain she thought was gone for good.]

[...and sinks her fist right into Murasa's face.]

Where the hell have you been?!

[The punch was weaker than a 'real' punch, but it must have hurt at least a little. Looks like Ichirin is pretty mad.

... Or it looks that way until she hugs Murasa as tightly as she can. Yeah.]

I was worried sick about you! I thought you were gone!

[Time for some weak-as-hell punches to Murasa's body. Weeeh!!]

You idiot! Idiot! Idiot! Don't just ask me that!

[The punching dies down and she goes back to hugging. Dammit Murasa!]

Minamitsu! I was so scared without you!!

[oh.

she stumbles back from the first punch, about to fall over before Ichirin hugs her. and then more punching. Murasa isn't even sure how to react at first, too stunned to put up her arms to block any of them.

the hugs leave a more painful ache than the punches, somehow. after a brief moment she returns the last one, wrapping her arms around Ichirin and holding her close.]

... I- I'm sorry. I didn't mean it.

I... I'm sorry too.

[Cough. Cough. Control yourself, Ichirin.]

I shouldn't have punched you, but next time don't show your face so nonchalantly.

[Hufff!!]

You vanished a few days ago, not too long but much longer than I would have liked.

Jerk.

... Are you okay? Nobody or nothing tried to hurt you, right?

[waaah don't call her a jerk she already feels awful.]

[Annnnd freeze.]

... Promise not to get mad, alright?

What happened.

[no promises.]

I'm just telling you because I don't want you to find out from someone in our room, alright? It's not a big deal.

[Ah hell. Damage control time.]

Ichirin, just tell me what happened!

I volunteered to die forever!

[WAIT NO START AT THE BEGINNING GIRL!]

We showed up in our room and we couldn't leave and there was no food and we were told to pick someone to sacrifice and I-- I volunteered, alright?

[she freezes up. that's... that's what she had missed while she was gone? if Ichirin weren't here she'd be glad, but.]

... Why?

[of course Murasa knows why. it's Ichirin. but she can't help but ask anyway.]

I thought you had gone. I thought you weren't here anymore, so it didn't matter if I was or not.

[And. They were going to take kids. Which is... not okay.]

[she grabs Ichirin by the shoulders.]

It doesn't matter if I'm gone or not! You're supposed to live! You have to!

I know! I was scared, Minamitsu! You have no idea how I felt while I was stuck in that room!

[She's supposed to be the sensible one. The one who understands things. How could she even begin to understand that!?]

... You're right. I don't know how you felt.

[her hands don't leave Ichirin's shoulders.]

But... you're here, alive, so...

... and you're here too.

[And so is Unzan, but it looks like Ichirin isn't translating for him or he's keeping quiet so they can have... whatever this is.]

I really... I really thought you were gone, you know? How am I supposed to make a temple without you?

... I won't leave you again. I promise.

[not if she can help it, at least.]

[She'd say the same but. Murasa probably wouldn't believe it.]

The boss of our captors showed himself the other day, too.

Pretend this isn't a million days late.
