it has been some time since he’d seen his protege, not since fated circumstances had caused his oddball brothers to disperse & his own brought him behind castle walls of a kingdom once out for his blood. ( the newly jester of his majesty’s court. ) be it for the best, natsume’s ill feelings towards past events which could not be changed kept wataru out of reach. to be called a traitor once more would only break this fool’s heart ! but even if the young witch is no longer under his apprenticeship it didn’t mean his teachings were to stop. a lesson that this hibiki wataru is not one to be crossed.
the ball in this land tonight is perfect opportunity to meet his beloved former student & it’s no fret for wataru to slip from his majesty’s side to locate natsume through feel of his magic. the moment his once admirer is left alone he makes his appearance —— through thin air quite literally !
❛ my my, nyatsume-kun ! it’s been some time, hasn’t it ? ❜ he knows, of course, that natsume’s reaction to seeing him is sure to be less than happy. ( he did curse the poor boy, after all. ) but wataru did nothing without cause & his purpose here is far more significant than the latter could be aware of. ❛ you seem to be enjoying your time here —— please there is no need to thank me ! you know i have only ever wanted the best for you . . ! ❜ / @crystliz 13/20
