ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | Probably.. She mumbled. I m starving. She said, shifting to her comfortable on the couch, finding it not nearly as comfortable as she thought it would be. |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | Masamune wasn't by any means a grand chef, but he knew how to work a stove. He made diced potatoes and eggs with toast and some sausage. Smelled pretty good. He returned to her with the plate and offered it, "Here, boss.." |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | This was such a different side of Megohime, one he hadn t seen before. She sat up and took the plate, offering a mumbled thank you before digging in. She ate in silence, looking rather zoned out she looked like a normal person who just had too much to drink the night before, not some mafia boss. Her hair was messed and she smelled like booze still, and there he was, cooking breakfast, making coffee, far from the hired killer look he usually carried. |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | What the hell kind of weird timeline did they get thrown into? This was hardly the life he knew all his life. |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | A thought entered Masamune s head: he could take Megohime, and together the both of them could start a new life, one away from violence and killing.Megohime looked up from her plate, mouth full of eggs before holding the plate up for Masamune, offering him some of the food. |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | He reached out and took the fork, taking a couple bites before nodding in satisfaction. He could totally have a peaceful life with her now. She wouldn't have to worry about running a mob, she could just be with him. |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | Megohime gave a nod herself, then resumed eating as normal.Masamune would be able to pull it off, all he had to do was escape Kojurou, find a new place for Megohime and himself. |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | He would have to get rid of his phone, for sure. Get her to a different apartment without anyone knowing. He would really have to really think about this one. |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | His heart beat hard in his chest, and for the first time in years, he felt hopeful. Together they might both have a chance at a normal life, at happiness. |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | "Whoa..." He actually muttered under his breath at the realization, eyebrows raised gently. |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | What..? She looked up from her empty plate, swallowing down the last of the food, looking at him with groggy eyes. |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | "Huh? Oh," he stopped and shook his head, "nothing, just a thought I had." |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | She nodded, standing and taking her plate to the sink before moving to the bathroom to wash up from the night before. |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | He ignored Kojurou a lot, keeping his GPS off so he wouldn't be found. He didn't want to leave Megohime alone, not now. |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | Megohime was clearly warming up to Masamune more and more, talking with him more and even trying her hand at cooking which she was awful at. How did we meet..? Megohime asked, always trying to learn something new about her passed life. |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | "Uh..." He hesitated, "I rescued you..." |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | They sat on the couch together, Megohime sitting on the opposite end of Masamune. You rescued me? From what? |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | "People wanting to get to your dad..." He answered, "They were gonna kill you..." |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | Megohime frowned softly, looking down at her lap. And you stopped them.. She muttered, almost to herself. |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | He nodded, "Sure did.." |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | Thank you. Megohime whispered, the faintest memory of pointing a knife at a blurry figure in her mind. I don t remember that either.. but I m glad you saved me, I m glad I got to meet you. |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | He made a soft noise, "Me too, boss.." |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | Over the days Megohime slowly regained memories, but they meant little to her, most were blurry or lacking detail, other were things that needed context. None of it was important to her, at least not enough to trigger any big memory recalls. |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | Masamune couldn't avoid Kojurou this time, and was forced to leave on a job, telling Megohime that he would be back as soon as he could. He didn't like leaving her alone. |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | Megohime bid him farewell, locking up and starting on her usual routine of tidying up and reading. |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | Later on, there was a knock on the door, but not the usual one. Should she risk it? |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | Megohime felt a bit of worry, knowing she shouldn t, Kojurou warning her against answering the door to anyone but them, but she did anyway, only cracking the door open slightly. |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | There was a massive man at the door, wild white hair and olive drab military attire."Ryuu oneesan?" |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | She frowned, not recognizing the man before her in the slightest. Who is that? I don t know anyone by that name, you have the wrong home. |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | "No, no, I'm right where I need to be. I forgot, you have amnesia. I came to try and help jog your memory." He said. |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | She looked skeptical, still not opening the door for him. How do I know you aren t armed? She glanced him up and down. |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | "How can I prove that to you if you only have the door cracked?" He asked, "Kinda hard to show you I can't hurt ya if ya can't see." |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | She considered what he said for a moment before opening the door for him, allowing him inside, eyes glued to him the whole time. |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | He stepped in and opened his military jacket, showing his holsters were empty. He lifted the ends of his pants to show the knife sheathes were also empty. "See?" |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | She stared at the empty holsters for a moment before giving a small nod, taking a glance out the door before closing it again. Who are you? Why do you want to help me? |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | "I'm Chosokabe Motochika. I'm one of the four heads. I wanna help cuz we need you. Kojurou does a decent job but he ain't you." He answered. |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | He knew Kojurou? She wasn t sure if she was right to trust this man, but she wanted desperately to know who she was. What can you tell me? No one will tell me anything meaningful. |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | He made a noise and pulled a folder, neatly folded, and held it out to her. "This is everything I have on you." |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | Megohime took it almost like it would hurt her, but she opened it the second it was in her hands, quiet as she started to read what was inside. She paced the room as she read page after page, eventually having to sit down on the couch as her eyes filled with tears. Her parents were dead, she had no siblings. I m a horrible person.. She said quietly, not looking at Motochika. I ve.. I m a crime lord.. |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | Immediately Motochika regretted going behind Kojurou's back like this. "Well...yeah...but you aren't horrible..." |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | She thumbed through a few more pages, looking up at him. She felt overwhelmed all over again memories she hadn t remembered until this point coming back, her being brought home by Masamune, her family business, who she was, but more importantly the car crash and kidnapping. Where she was and what happened was still fuzzy, only blurry memories of being beaten, Masamune on the floor, and so much blood. Fuck..! She closed the file, putting her head in her hands. |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | "You ok...?!" Motochika became alarmed, moving over quickly. |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | I m not dead. She muttered. So I suppose that s good. Megohime ribbed her face and looked to him, a hard scowl on her face. But remembering all the bad shit isn t great. |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | He perked, "Oh, shit, it worked?" He asked, "Damn!" |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | Don t sound so excited, I still feel like a lots missing, but I remember enough. She stood up, closing the file. |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | "Still! I didn't expect it to work!" He said. |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | I need to get back to Kojurou, if things are in trouble, I need to get back to him. She pushed the files back into his hands. Thank you, this wasn t a pleasant wake up, but it s much appreciated. |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | He nodded, "No problem." He said as he watched her go, "Wanna ride?" |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | Megohime stopped, thinking for a moment, then nodding. Yeah, I d appreciate that. |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | He nudged his head and walked out with her, moving to his car. |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | Megohime followed him, leaving behind her chance at a peaceful life, glancing back at the building once more before getting into the car. |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | Motochika drove her back to her estate, and when she walked in Kojurou was surprised to see her."Megohime dono...?" |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | Yeah, I got a ride from Motochika, he brought me up to speed with most things, still have a few fuzzy spots though. She was back to her old self, not the scared untrusting woman he had been returned. |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | He glared at Motochika, who rose his hands defensively, before smiling softly at Megohime."It's good to have you back.." |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | Let it go, I probably would ve remembered sooner or later and it sounds like it was a good thing it happened sooner where s Masamune? She asked. |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | "On a job. He should be back soon." Kojurou answered. |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | Megohime found herself a bit disappointed, but only nodded, needing to assure her business wasn t going to suffer any longer. Get me up to speed, Kojurou. |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | He nodded and grabbed a large pile of papers, "This is all the transactions that have been made in your absence." |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | Megohime nodded, taking the stack of papers and moving to sit down, needing to go through the papers as quickly and thoroughly as she could. |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | "I have done my best to carry things as well as you would have." He told her. |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | You did well Kojurou, there s no reason to fret so much. Megohime said as she went through the papers. Give yourself a little credit. |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | He smiled softly and nodded, "Thank you, Megohime dono.." |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | Megohime gave Kojurou a glance, a soft smile on her face, knowing her condition must ve been hard on him. |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | "Date should be back soon. I sent him on a small guard job for a drug transfer." He told her. |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | Megohime nodded, not looking up this time. Good. She hesitated for a moment before glancing to Kojurou. Send him to me when he gets back, will you? |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | He seemed hesitant but nodded, "Of course.." |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | Megohime dismissed Kojurou to take a break, sitting alone in her office as she went over every transaction Kojurou had overseen. |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | It didn't seem like long before the door opened."Boss...?" Masamune peeked in, "What are you doing here...?" |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | Megohime looked up, and she felt her chest ache, part of her wishing she hadn t ever remembered who she was. Working. She said with a small smile. I m sorry I was gone so long.. |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | She saw his expression drop before he pushed whatever it was down, becoming stoic, "Nah...good to have you back, boss." |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | Megohime knew he was disappointed, how could he not be? They could ve had the perfect life together away from the mess in Ergastulum, but that wasn t how her life was supposed to be. She set the papers down and frowned softly. Masamune.. I know this isn t how you wanted things to turn out, and I m sorry that it did.. |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | He shook his head, "It was too good to be true anyway...I don't wanna think about it anymore, if that's ok.." |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | Megohime felt her heart grow heavy, but gave a nod. Of course. She said softly. |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | "So...got any chores for me?" He asked, holding his katana. |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | Megohime was about to tell him no, but then she reconsidered. I haven t asked Kojurou about this yet, but has he found out who it was who held us? She asked. |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | "Katou Danzou." It came out of his mouth lightning fast, "I've been trying to find him but he bounces a lot." |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | Good. I want you to find him and bring him back here. Alive. She said, face set with a hard scowl. I have a few things I want to ask him. |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | "As soon as I find him, you'll be the first to know." He told her. |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | Megohime nodded, wanting more than anything to get answers from the man who nearly killed Masamune and her. |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | "Is that all, boss...?" He asked gently. |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | Megohime wanted to tell him to stay, but perhaps it was best if she didn t. That s all. |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | He nodded and hesitated before stepping out of the office. |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | Megohime spent the rest of her day going over papers and making sure everything was in line, staying up late into the night. |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | The doorknob to her office jangled before it opened, Masamune stumbling in before kicking the door shut. |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | Masamune? Megohime looked surprised to see him at such an hour. What s wrong? |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | "'M upset." He slurred. Had he been drinking? "We couldda run off. Been happy. But no. This shit always hasta pull ya back, huh?" |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | She felt the same pang of sadness in her chest, standing and moving over to Masamune. I m sorry, She said softly. Part of me wished I hadn t remembered, truly.. |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | "That big fuggin idiot had ta go 'n ruin iddal, huh? I'll fuggin..." His eye closed as he tried to stay standing, "I'll kill 'im..." |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | Megohime held him stead by the shoulders, making sure he didn t go toppling over. No you won t, he s just trying to do right by this family. |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | He huffed and looked up at her, "Let's go...let's run away, boss.." |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | Megohime s eyes grew sad, and she almost looked like she would cry. Masamune, you know I can t.. |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | "But why not...?" He asked softly, "We can fake your death and just go.." |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | You know I couldn t do that.. I wouldn t be able to live with myself. Megohime said softly, knowing how much Masamune was hurting. |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | "But I love you, boss, please..." It was almost like the alcohol turned him into a needy child, emotions coming out that he would be more comfortable with hiding. |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | Megohime moves forward and held Masamune, feeling her tears slip down her cheeks. I m sorry.. I wish I could run away with you, work on my cooking with you.. |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | He looked destroyed before he moved and kissed her firmly, as if it would be enough to convince her. |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | Megohime was a bit surprised, pulled away even, a look of confusion on her face. Masamune, I I don t understand.. why this all of a sudden..? |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | "I...I dunno...I thought...maybe I could convince you...?" He slurred. |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | Megohime felt like her heart would break, having no words to say to him, instead leaning back up to kiss him. |
ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip) | He kissed back and cupped her cheeks, putting a little firmness into the kiss. |
