A GLORIOUS PERFORMANCE !!

“You can’t!” Ritsuka practically yelled out as he walked over to Nero and slammed his hand against the wall behind her kabedon style. He stared intensely into her eyes for a moment before explaining himself.

God he was blushing from being this close to her but he felt there was no other way to avoid the singing but putting on the ploy. Ritsuka only hoped that this worked out like he thought in his head. “I mean… if you sing to me alone I won’t be able to control my feelings for you!”

(Please work out.) “There are too many servants that want to date me and it would cause too many problems if we got involved! Please understand Nero… you can’t sing a private concert for me; it will be too captivating!”

             HIS YELLING CATCHES HER OFF GUARD, but him slamming his hand against the wall behind her only caught her off guard even more. Her gaze does not leave his -- and she stares directly into his eyes, too. From the corner of her eyes she notices how red his cheeks are, and even though she could easily turn this situation around, she chooses not to, waiting to see what he has to say. 

“ Is that really true, Master ?? Do you truly harbor such feelings for me !? ”

“Is that so? What a shame…You made the best fish I have yet seen Nero.”

It was clear now that he was playing dumb, as shown by the faint hint of a smile spreading across his lips. He knew what she wished to do, however, he was worried that it’ll go further then just a single kiss. That was something he did not wish to explore right away.

             HER HEART RACES AT HIS COMMENT, with those words Hakuno made it clear that he was playing the fool. Nero glances away from him after he speaks, must he tease her like this ?? A soft sigh escapes her lips, she looks back at him with rosy cheeks. She places a hand on her chest -- heart still racing as she then begins to speak. 

“ Must you continue to toy with me, Hakuno ?? ”

“Ow..Damn. I told you, you don’t have to treat my wounds anymore Nero. I’ll be fine in a bit.” The last scuffle was a bit more intense then he wanted it to be. To the point he did get up close and personal with a lot of enemies forgoing his normal style of range attacks. Sighing a bit, he winced once again as the alcoholic pad touched one of the multiple wounds on his face.

             SHE KNEW HIM BETTER THAN TO BELIEVE THAT OUTRIGHT. While she didn’t doubt that he would be fine later -- making sure he got the proper treatment now was of the utmost important. Especially after all the close contact fighting he had gotten into earlier. Nero dabs his face with an alcoholic pad, and even though it pained her to see him wince from the pain, she knew that if she didn’t do it no one else would. 

for every 🎵 i get i’ll post a song i associate with my muse // accepting !!

Legends Never Die.

you'll never see the price it costs – the scars collected all their livesWhen everything's lost, they pick up their hearts and avenge defeatBefore it all starts, they suffer through harm just to touch a dream.

Far Too Young To Die.

Well I never really thought that you'd come tonight When the crown hangs heavy on either side Give me one last kiss while we're far too young to die. 

Wanna Be Missed.

I wanna be missed like every nightI wanna be kissed like it’s the last timeSay you can’t eat, can’t sleep, can’t breathe without me

             THERE WAS SOMETHING STRANGE about this Heroic Spirit, something Nero simply just couldn’t put her finger on. Not that it really mattered --- there were already a fair bit of strange and weird servants around ( and she was certainly no exception. ) Weird or not, he was still a servant and SHE was still paired up with him for a mission. It wasn’t anything too difficult, just a few goblins and other various creatures. 

“ It seems like we've been paired up for this mission !! Let us do our best to take down the enemy !! ”

me sighing as i pull out my credit card.

looks like someone wants to sleep on the couch !!

This was it, wasn’t it? This is how he was going to die. With a forced smile as he picked up the can he waved a little greeting to her. “Oh! Hello, Nero. I… would hate to tire you out though!”

He had to find some reasonable excuse to avoid this encounter! Even if he didn’t think her singing was THAT bad, he still wasn’t fond of sitting through an evening of it. “You should save your voice for later, it’d be a shame if it were just me there to listen.” If he had to suffer through this then he sure as hell wasn’t going to do it alone!

              “ Tire me out ??  PLEASE !!  I am only just getting started !! ”

A hearty laugh is given at his words, she holds her hands on her hips confidently. It seems like she hasn’t even noticed that his smile was forced and he seemed like he DIDN’T want to be there. She could count the number of people she’d be willing to give a private concert to on one hand -- her master just happening to be one of them !!

what did your muse do to mine ?? // selectively accepting !!

             WHY WAS SHE APOLOGIZING TO HER ?? The Saber looks at the Hakuno Kishinami that stood before her. IT PAINED HER, this was Hakuno – but it was not her Hakuno. While her voice may have been the same, and she may have looked the same – they were not THE same. And that fact alone was enough to make her heart hurt. Nero puts on a brave face, swallowing her sadness as best she could. She would not SHOW this sadness, she couldn’t. Not with her. And so, she wore a smile on her face – one that hid any and all traces of sadness. She looks down at the girl and says ...

what did your muse do to mine ?? // selectively accepting !!

               THE EMPEROR IS ALMOST AT A LOSS FOR WORDS. For a mere moment she simply stares at the other Saber, who was currently patting her head. Nero was ... confused, she didn’t know WHY Arthur had decided to pat her on the head -- but she couldn’t say she DISLIKED it. In fact, it was honestly a little comforting. She may have been an emperor of a kingdom, but that didn’t mean that she couldn’t relish in the moment. 

“ I do not know WHY you have decided to do this, but I must say that I do not mind it. ”

She finally tells him, wearing a small grin on her features. It was not her first time getting a pat on the head -- she could recall times where her PREVIOUS MASTER had done it. Hakuno ... Nero thinks about them for a moment. While she was not with them currently, thoughts of them held heavy in her heart. 

“Hm? No why would I be? I think you are great at the arts you set your mind too Nero.”

Of course, he was dense, but he had a general idea of what she was aiming for, though he did feel like teasing her a bit. Something to give the day a bit more of a spark aside from its normal dullness.

                “ WHILE I would agree that I am great at what I put my mind to -- ” A short pause is given, she signs softly. “ I was not ... trying to do a fish impression when I did that. ” 

scatteringroses replied to your post: “A kiss…?” Was he jealous of his master getting…

kissy-faces at

“That is a nice fish impression Nero.”

               HIS WORDS HIT HER LIKE AN ARROW TO THE HEART -- so cruel !!  Surely her old master couldn’t be this dense, could he ??  She rather dramatically places a hand to her chest.
