Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
"You're fretting over nothing." Kojurou said as he used magic to care for his extravagant coats. Masamune made a noise."How can I not? She kinda hates me.""She kind of doesn't." Kojurou remarked, "Just go to her."
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
Megohime had been hard at work trying to find anything that would work to remove the curse placed upon him, even trying multiple different rituals, but nothing was working and she was becoming increasingly withdrawn and upset, devoting all of her time to reading in his library.
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
"Uh..." She didn't even hear Masamune come in, "You busy...?"
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
Megohime didn t look up from her stack of books, looking like she hadn t slept in days. No. He couldn t tell if she was being honest or sarcastic maybe she hadn t really heard his question?
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
He made a noise and cleared his throat before conjuring a rose and offering it to her, "Here..."
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
She glanced up briefly, then back down at her book, then back up again, slowly lowering her book. A rose? She looked a little confused. Why? Was this some sort of special rose that might be of assistance in returning him to a complete human?
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
"Ah..." He looked nervous, his face heating up a bit, "Cuz...you know...roses are pretty and you're...pretty..."
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
He could see her cheeks turn pink and she actually set her book down for a moment. Th Thank you.. She said quietly, taking the rose gently.
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
"Um...I can do more stuff.." He said and waved his hand, a small flurry of blue magic following his fingers as butterflies were conjured from the dust.
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
Megohime held the rose carefully, watching his magic in silent awe it was a simple trick, but beautiful.
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
"Um...ta da..." He muttered. Man, he was bad at this. Women would always run from him so he never talked to them much.
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
Megohime laughed at how awkward he was, expression growing a bit sad. Your magic is beautiful. She said.
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
"Thank you...it's Kojurou's magic, just with my own flare.." He said with a small smile.
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
That s your familiar right? She asked, looking up at him, still clutching the rose gently.
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
He nodded, "The tall guy who acts really stuffy all the time."
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
Are you sure he s not a golem? She joked. I think he only has one emotion: blank.
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
He laughed, "Right? For a bird, he's rather stoic." He joked.
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
He s a bird? She couldn t help but laugh. I was picturing a deer or something!
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
He chuckled and shook his head, "He's a huge gaudy blue and silver peacock lookin' thing."
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
She covered her mouth and laughed more. You certainly do pick the interesting ones.
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
"He picked me, oddly enough..." He said, "No one would come to me for the longest time. I almost gave up.."
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
Well that s odd, familiars are typically chosen, not the one choosing. She gave a small shrug. Either way, he s a good find.
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
He shrugged, "He called me an idiot savant..." He said, "Said there was something about me the other familiars were too scared of..."
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
Probably the curse. She said, glancing at the books as she ran her fingers across the gently. Still little progress, frustratingly..
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
"What if you found Iisaka...?" He asked, "I haven't heard from her in a long time but...it's possible?"
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
She gave a nod. Witches have ways to prolong their life if she s able to create such a complex curse, she s more than likely still alive. I might be able to track her, but the toll is a little steep.
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
"What is it?" He asked, "Hypothetically?"
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
Megohime looked down at her rose so she didn t have to look Masamune in the eye. A blood ritual. She said.
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
"Oh..." He muttered, "That doesn't sound fun."
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
It s not painful not for me anyway.. She rubbed the back of her neck. It does require a sacrifice a blood sacrifice obviously. Human or animal, but human tends to work better.
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
"Yikes..." He muttered, rubbing his neck, "I guess I could find an unfortunate...just let me know, I guess.."
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
No! She blurted out, then looked away. No, this will be my issue, just... Just give me some time.
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
He nodded, "You have it." He said and moved to head out but stopped before looking back, "Do you wanna...spend dinner with me?"
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
Megohime looked up, cheeks flushed pink. Oh... I I would like that. She nodded.
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
He grinned widely and nodded, "Perfect. Six o'clock sharp. Don't be late."
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
Megohime was indeed on time, a bit early in fact, in fresh clothes and blushing profusely. This couldn t be considered a date could it? No, he was just inviting her to dinner, that was all.
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
"Hey!" Masamune moved over, dressed in a fine tunic and trousers, "You look really pretty for a witch." He teased.
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
She flushed more and looked away. I suppose you look decent enough for a wizard.
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
He chuckled softly, "Thanks, I try to always look my best.""Masamune sama.." Kojurou called and gestured to the table. Masamune offered his hand to Megohime with a smile."Shall we?"
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
Megohime took his hand and followed him, keeping her gaze down, heart pounding in her chest.
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
He guided her to her seat and allowed her to sit first before moving across from her."I hope you like duck." He smiled, "I don't have it prepared very often."
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
I ve never had duck, mostly just the pheasants I could find in the forest. She said, looking around the large table before looking to Masamune.
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
"It's good. Kinda sweet." He said, "Pretty good if you think of it like a long chicken."
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
Megohime laughed at that, hiding her mouth behind her hand. What, like you ve taken a chicken and stretched it out?
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
He nodded, grinning, "From neck to tail feathers." He joked.
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
She shook her head. You re ridiculous. She laughed softly, tucking some of her hair behind her ear.
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
"I'll take that as a compliment." He said as the servants laid out dinner. There were two roast duck with vegetables and potatoes and fresh rolls and old bottles of wine. Kojurou sat at the far end of the table, liking his space as birds often did.
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
The food was wonderful, the two eating in silence for the most part, Megohime stealing glances at Masamune every now and again.
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
"So...how long have you studied magic?" Masamune finally asked.
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
Megohime looked up from her food, thinking for a bit before answering. I think as soon as I could read... Mother started me early and you?
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
"About the same...maybe a little older?" He looked a little uncertain. "Probably when I was like...eight or nine.."
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
Megohime nodded. From the witches I ve spoken to, that seems pretty common.
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
"For wizards or in general?" He asked, "Some are lucky and can start even sooner.."
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
She made a face and picked at her food a bit. I don t know. She answered. I ve only spoken to the witches in my coven, never anyone outside except the brief incounter with people at markets.
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
He made a noise, "I imagine it's common in general for people to discover their abilities rather young.."
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
Megohime gave a nod. I figured. She mused then have a small smile. I m sure you as a child was just as silly to see as you now.
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
"Quite amusing." Kojurou chimed in and Masamune shot him a look."Hush up!"
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
Megohime couldn t help but laugh, feeling a light fluttering feeling in her chest. It s not a bad thing I like it.
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
Masamune blushed, "You do?"
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
Her own face was red, but she nodded without looking up. Yeah, I do.
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
They seemed to get along mutter better after that. No more fighting or hesitance. His flirting was more welcome with each passing week, and soon he asked less about her lifting the curse and just spent more time with her.
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
Megohime of course still worked on looking for a cure, but whenever Masamune was around, all of her attention was on him. She laughed at all of his dumb jokes, seeming to geniuinly find them funny, and spent all of her free time with him. It was clear they were becoming much more than just friends.
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
He thought about asking for her hand, he even magically crafted her an engagement ring. But was too nervous to ever bring it up.
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
The two would often slip away from Kojurou and the servants to hide away in Masamune s room, nothing more than kissing, but one day, it went further than that.Megohime sat on the edge of the bed, running her fingers through her hair as Masamune redressed. She had never made love before then her head was still spinning, the entire thing was a rush, and it was unlike any pleasure she had ever felt before. She already knew she had fallen deeply in love with Masamune, but admitting it was something she struggled with.
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
"I hope I wasn't boring.." He joked, "I'm not well versed in the art of pleasing a woman.."
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
She looked over at him, face flushed a bit at the comment. It was fine...! Well, good rather... She looked away, playing with her hair. It was my first time, so I m not entirely sure what good sex can be defined as... But I liked being with you..
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
He straightened out his shirt and trousers, blushing darkly, "Yeah, it was really enjoyable.."
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
Times were good, their relationship deepened, and all seemed happy. Then Megohime got sick. She was violently ill every morning, and the servants expected she was pregnant, but Megohime was in far too much pain, and far too weak to simply be pregnant.
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
Masamune would always tend to her when she was stuck in bed, putting lesser healing potions in her soups and drinks to help ease her discomfort. "How ya feelin' today?" He asked softly, petting her layered bangs back gently.
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
Megohime was pale, sweating heavily, and shaking hard. Like I m dying.. She croaked, opening her eyes slowly to look up at him. Her vision was blurry, and the room was spinning, making her groan softly and close her eyes again.
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
He frowned, "I'm trying to figure out what it is...I'll make sure you're feeling better."
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
She gave a weak nod, not trying to protest at all. Thank you... I ll do my best to hold out. She said softly.
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
"You better." He said and kissed her forehead, "You still gotta break my curse." He teased.
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
Always so pushy.. She teased. It s a wonder Kojurou s managed this far..
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
"He preens a lot, I noticed." He smiled softly, "Get some rest, I'll be back.later with some food."
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
She gave another nod, shifting a bit to get comfortable in bed, doing her very best to get some rest.
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
She heard Masamune leave but after a moment of silence she heard new footsteps. "My, aren't we having fun in a comfortable new home. Cheating on your husband." A familiar voice chastised.
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
Megohime sat up immediately, even if it nearly made her vomit in the process. Her eyes were wide, her gaze falling on a familiar figure. S...Satan.. She could hardly speak.
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
He was in his human form his shoulder length inky hair pulled into a bun, dressed in a deep red velvet jacket with a black button up and black slacks and shoes. "You break my heart, Megohime."
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
She clenched her fists, feeling her frustration bubbling up from a deep place she had shoved it down long ago. Why? Because you can t have one of your hundreds of wives? Most of which aren t given a choice? At the time she had turned thirteen, and had her first blood letting, was when she was officially betrothed to Satan, her entire coven coming to bear witness. I didn t want that..! I didn t want to be married, I didn t want magic..! She turned her head away. I didn t want you..! I I don t love you...
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
He chuckled darkly and moved closer, "Blame the circumstances of your birth, my dear. Were you not born into this coven, you would not belong to me "
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
She shied away as he moved closer, as if his very presence made her feel much more ill. I don t belong to you.. She had to force out her words, only managing to whisper. I don t..!
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
"I own you, Megohime. Since the day you were fucking born." He snarled, "I will show you what it means to cross me."
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
I love him. She whispered. Can t I just be happy with him..? She already knew the answer, she already knew she had said far too much, but she couldn t keep her mouth shut for some reason.
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
He fumed and suddenly vanished, leaving her alone with the malicious tension that radiated off him.
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
Megohime again nearly vomited, clutching her chest and breathing heavily. Where had he gone? What was going to happen? She tried to get out of bed, struggling to even stand.
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
She could hear the screams of the maids even from her room, hear the crackle of magic as well as fighting a struggle of some kind.
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
Megohime s eyes widened, and she forced herself to move. Needing to lean against the wall as she went, she followed the sounds of screaming, her heart pounding in her chest.
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
"Get the hell out of my house!!" That was definitely Masamune, "Where the hell did you send Kojurou?" Send? Oh God."I sent him somewhere close by. He is unharmed."
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
Megohime felt tears start to fall down her face, pushing herself to hobble down the hall faster, only to stumble through the doors of the gallery and fall to her knees. Please..! She begged the intruder. Please don t harm him..!
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
"Mego?" Masamune looked confused, "What's going on, who is this creep?""Yes, Megohime. Who am I?" Satan asked.
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
Megohime fought off letting out a sob, balling up her fists. Please.. She looked like she was going to faint at any moment. You ve made your point, and I m sorry, please... please just leave, it won t happen again, I m sorry..! Masamune had never seen Megohime so desperate, groveling on the ground.
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
"Mego...""That doesn't answer his question, Megohime." Satan chastised, "Come now, you were raised better."
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
Megohime clenched her jaw and squeezed the tears from her eyes, dropping her face toward the floor so Masamune didn t have to look at her. He s my betrothed... She whispered. Satan, Lord of Hell..
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
"B..." She could hear his heart snapping in his voice, "Betrothed?""That's the only thing you take from that?" Satan sounded bored. Masamune chucked a huge solid mass of lightning at him but he merely smacked it away into the wall.
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
Megohime flinched at the loud discharge and crash of magic, tears dripping down her face. It s not as if we actually meet with him more than once while we re alive... I just wanted to live a normal life and be happy.. She muttered. Please don t think I was lying to you, everything I felt for you was real..! She made herself look up at Masamune. I really do love you..!
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
"It's standard, with her coven. All of them are my harem, you see. My wives. They bind to me and I give them whatever power they desire. She could overpower that Iisaka woman's curse easily if she so asked " Satan said. Masamune looked to Megohime and frowned."But you didn't...because you didn't want to see him, right...?"
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
Partly.. Megohime looked away when Masamune looked at her. Asking for more power isn t just rewarded freely. She looked ashamed. He needs something in return... our first time meeting is when we re signing the contract of marriage, when our magic limit has been reached as a human... The first contract is usually sealed with a kiss... The more power, the bigger offer it takes for him to accept giving us that power.. She clenched her fists, shame burning in her chest. I I wanted the person I gave my purity to to be the person I loved..! Not for more power..!
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
Satan gave a fake coo, only to grunt when a solid mass of lightning actually connected with him this time. Masamune's fingers were sparking, glaring hatefully at him."Get out of my house. Leave my fiance alone. She isn't bound to you any more.""Fiance? How rich." Satan chortled.
Mornië utúlië (1x1 w/ Jikkah)
Megohime s eyes widened in horror. Masamune don t! Run! She tried to get back up to her feet, knowing exactly what would happen next, and it wasn t in Masamune s favor.
