Re: [D6LM] Ever After [Invite]

Genji smiled widely. "Congratulations cousin! And well...cousin now, I guess Hikaru-san, neh?" He raised his arms in greetings. Hikaru laughed softly at that. "In truth, I hadn't considered that." Even as he talked to Genji, he stayed in close contact with Satsuki, letting her lean against him. "If...

Re: EE D6 - The Choosing of the Thunders (Key Event)

Ai replied calmly, “I spoke to my Honored Mother last night, in the dreaming… she has given me her blessing if an opportunity for a match should manifest. Of course surviving the Day of Thunder comes first but if so then I may entertain potential suitors and see if one is worthy.” “She admires a po...

And... I think Satsuki and Hikaru have some skill at being nice? :lol:
Hikaru has less than you would think. A little better if Benten's applies.

However, part of being married means getting to benefit from your wife's buff spells. This is known.

Re: EE D6 - The Choosing of the Thunders (Key Event)

Hikaru smiled brightly at both of them; it was an unusual expression for him, but it suited his features well. "I did, in fact. It was a challenge to be sure, but once I was on the right path, it was only a matter of..." Hikaru's lips pursed as he considered his words, "-finding the right expression...

He nodded at her words. "Why wouldn't there be? Ningen-Do will have a thousand years of peace and Jigoku would have been defeated once more. We can take a day to celebrate before we go to the task of making sure our descendants do not forget what happened here." "Perhaps even more than a day." Hika...

Re: [D6LM] Ever After [Invite]

Hearing Hikaru's words, and the tremble of emotion in his voice, Satsuki couldn't really help herself and dabbed at the corners of her eyes as she was starting to feel overwhelmed. "Then now, we begin the rest of our lives together. Forever." The ceremony was concluded and she joined her hands with...

Re: [D6LM] Ever After [Invite]

Hikaru listened as Satsuki spoke, first as part of the ceremony, and then as she spoke her personal vows. His lips parted, a look of wonder on his face, growing with each word she spoke. Both finally, and all too soon, it was his turn. Hikaru took a deep, wavering breath, but when he spoke his voice...

Re: EE D6 - The Choosing of the Thunders (Key Event)

The moment rested heavy on Matsu's broad shoulders. Looking about, seeing the melancholy of the scene as the gravity of the situation dawned on all those gathered. Those brown eyes looking about the crowd. They fell on the Nanzi woman, and the now married couple. Matsu walked to where the trio, and...

Re: EE D6 - The Choosing of the Thunders (Key Event)

Throughout the selection process, Ranmaru turned inward. This purpose he had concocted for himself had been for naught. He took the realization better than he had anticipated. Here would not be where he forged his destiny. And so easily he abandoned his niceness. "Hmpf, I guess it ended up working ...

Re: EE D6 - The Choosing of the Thunders (Key Event)

Ranmaru suppressed the emotions raging inside him and made his approach. To Hikaru he gave a slight wave and then he leaned in to whisper into Satsuki's ear. "Let us see if this man is selected. If so, then it's only right that you march together. But if he does not, then you should refuse." Out of...

Re: [D6LM] Ever After [Invite]

Well, it seemed that it was time. Hikaru looked at Satsuki, his pale eyes meeting her green. Neither of them needed to say anything. They were both ready. Together, the two began to walk towards the altar, such as it was. Hikaru walked slowly, looking out over the faces of those closest to both of t...

[D6LM] Ever After [Invite]

(the couple has decided to have a small private ceremony. However, we are registered at Rope Depot) It had all come together so quickly. In truth, not much was needed. The official shrine, of course, was impossible to use. But for a ceremony of this size, the tiny arch in a pretty spot by the river ...

Re: EE D6 - The Choosing of the Thunders (Key Event)

Thunder, huh... Satsuki stood next to Hikaru, reaching for his hand in this moment. These past days, becoming a Thunder had been farthest from her mind; she had been too busy thinking of how to help, how to do everything she could to make sure Jigoku would be defeated and Doji would be saved. Her e...

Re: EE D6 - The Choosing of the Thunders (Key Event)

Hikaru had always believed in destiny. Certain things were destined to happen. Certain people were destined for greatness. He had once been told by a reliable source that he was not. That thought had been a nagging doubt in his mind for years. The saving of Lady Doji would require the guiding hand o...

"You will fail."

The voice is Doji's, but there is a disturbing undertone to it.

The dream ends, leaving him unsettled upon waking.

Re: [D5Sleep] Hikaru's Dream

Hikaru closed his eyes. "I know." He said softly. "But not like this." In truth, what he wanted, secretly wanted, he didn't believe in enough. Some things were impossible even in dreams. As Lady Doji rose, so did Hikaru. "This is not the future I choose either." He said, his voice soft yet serious a...

Re: [D5Sleep] Hikaru's Dream

Doji looked at him, giving him a sad smile as she touched his face. "Then in Yume-do I shall remain." The dream garden fades away as she looked down, smiling sadly. "I did love you, deep down. I hoped to see your face in Ningen-do again, if you had been willing to save me. But... I understand. Your...

Re: [D5Sleep] Hikaru's Dream

Sometimes with age came worry, or pain. For Hikaru, it seemed to bring peace. And while a few of the worry lines he always wore seemed to linger, they made him look happy now. Which made sense. He was happy. Smiling gently, Hikaru looked down at his daughter. Akane, he thought, and he knew it was tr...
