#shigure support

Despite the scandal that colored her gasp, there was delight that flared in Mitama’s eyes as her friend rose both literally and emotionally to the figurative white glove she had thrown into the ring.

Truth be told, she had been uncertain that Shigure would bite the bait she dangled in front of their nose. The need to simply be left to their own ventures at times was something Mitama could relate to. She would not blame them in the slightest if they asked for peace or simply laughed her away for the time being. To have them accept her challenge was a delight.

“Mayhaps I would lose / but is your chance much better? / Talent high and low.” Mitama laughed with delight as she allowed Shigure to take some of the supplies from her arms. “Though singing is surely your title to take. Have I never told you that my caretakers pushed me to poetry to dissuade me from attempting tunes I have note the skill to carry?”

They had a sauna. They had a greenhouse. They had a spot that was dedicated exclusively to fishing which didn’t really make any sense to Saber when they had food shipped in to feed all the mouths in the monastery but he wasn’t gunna tell Rhea how to run her show. They had all these amenities to cater to people and make them feel at home.

So why the fuck couldn’t Saber find a single drop of alcohol in this place?

He grumbled to himself as he scanned through the stores of the dining hall. There had to be something. Anything! He knew for a fact he’d seen one staff member stumbling around drunk at least once, and there was no way her slender frame could’ve hoarded all of the booze.

A few people have been interested in the event I have going with @darkskysinger-shigure / @a-dance-just-for-you, so I just thought I’d do a quick masterpost of everything that’s happened to date. I’ll continue updating this as the threads progress.

A basic rundown of the event is that Valter captures first Shigure and then Inigo to torture them. With a little outside help, of course.

HUGE TRIGGER WARNINGS FOR: Violence, torture, emetophobia, animal death, human death and other terrible shit. Also, I suppose, cross-generational shipping (although it’s both characters’ Heroes PA alts before the mun had played Fates).

🍹- This drink will change the user’s voice. (In which Shigure gives Mitama a singer's voice)

“Oh!” Mitama smiled as Shigure approached. Long had it been since she’d seen the familiar face of a friend of her world. To see Shigure at a time of festivities made it seem all the more special.

“Artist paints entrance / stepping through the canvas to / greet the audience.” She laughed. “It has truly been a while, Shigure.”

A drink was offered, one to match the one he seemed to be drinking. Ah, how nice. And she had been growing thirsty. She accepted the drink with a polite nod before taking a sip. It tasted good, but left the strangest tingling down her tongue and throat. Peculiar. She didn’t think it was alcoholic, but she was not sure she would know.

“Thank you ver-” She paused. It seemed Shigure wanted to say something. She waited a moment, but when the other seemed not to say anything, she frowned. “I”m sorry, did I interrupt-”

hold me, heal me - not accepting

The subject of conversation was of no import. With little to do beyond train and fight and prepare for battle, talking was all they could do during the lulls. Conversation drifted from one subject to the next with little rhyme or reason. If Mitama spent time trying to map out the thread of every conversation, she would surely be reprimanded for wasting more time than she already did.

She is not sure what she said that causes it. Perhaps it was nothing she had said at all, but rather the length of the war draining them all. They were so close to the end, the powers at be claimed, and yet it did little to alleviate the stress and exhaustion that wore at them all.

Perhaps it is not what she said. Perhaps it is. She will never know, not with quickly she drops the subject entirely as she feels the weight of Shigure lean against her briefly. It is a short thing, the ghost of an arm at her side, and then they are gone, drifting off to something else.

Mitama spins around and chases after, grin already cracking with wicked mischief as she reaches out to them.

"Oh no, not so quickly! You cannot grace me with opportunity's once in a lifetime knock and only allow it to linger so briefly! Shigure, come here!"

Press ►!

@a-dance-just-for-you

To the young dancer’s surprise... He does. He does exactly that. 

Shigure is released from his bonds and gently escorted out of the castle by the few staff he allowed to care for him.

Asugi was holed up in his room, panting breathlessly over a used wastebasket. He tried to breathe deeply and keep the rest of his modest lunch down. It wasn’t working too well.
