The Day of Thunder

Nozomi might have been unfamiliar with the set-up of this tent, but she was intimately familiar with Shinsei. As she started to rifle through his possessions, she went for where he would hide things, just in case they needed to be found. Her hands hunted around for somewhere that they might have hidden a haiku to each other, or the like. Moments of affection were rare, but in those places she might find something if he left it for her.

Perhaps she was even right about that hunch

(Got a 25)

At first, all she finds is a poem.

Do not mourn for me
I will be in the sunlight
Watching our treasure

She notices, though, there's a little ink bleed through from the back. On the other side of the paper is a note:

Find the best of me in them. It must be you now.

As she read it, her hands shook and she collapsed to her knees. The note fell where Ukyou could see it, and she was sobbing. She wasn't ready for this. She wasn't Shinsei. She was just some dumb girl who had been carried along the way by fate. It was so much to deal with, so much to handle.

Ukyou wrapped his arms around his shoulders, holding her close. He felt his own tears start to fall.

(OOC: I think this serves as a good "Fade to Black" moment for these two. They're probably going to be crying for a while.)

(Indeed.)
