If the cast of Where the Rivers Meet were flowers...

Rein is a sunflower: A little weathered. A little bent. Somehow found growing in a little space no one expected him to. A sunflower that keeps turning toward the light, even after storms have taught it not to expect clear skies.

Biju is a moonflower vine: Beautiful at any hour, but somehow the most herself at dusk. The sort of flower people walk past once and then spend years remembering. She stays blooming beside a creek nearest the edge, opening quietly to a world that never expected her.

One spends all day chasing the sunlight.

The other blooms well beneath the moon.

By all accounts they should have missed each other completely.

Shukaku: Do you think I'm blind or deaf, Shikanami?

Shikanami: Excuse me?

Shukaku: These primitive nonentities can only joke about the fact that they consider me fat.

Shikanami: Oh, right.

Shukaku: You think I can't answer them the same way?

Shikanami: Well... in your case it would be too thick!
