[ After so long of not being able to get here, Natsume had finally managed to secure a worldhop and not be nearly-dying at home long enough to make it to this world. He felt bad for keeping something that belonged to Issun for so long, especially when he knew it was only a mistake that he'd had it in the first place. But now... he would be able to make things right. After he'd managed to get there, it wasn't quite in the right place at first... but it wasn't long before he spotted the wolf and Issun.
For a moment he stood there, staring, as though captured by how calm and beautiful the picture he was seeing seemed, even if it was bright enough to almost hurt his eyes with just the snow. He drew one hand up to shade over his eyes, then kept walking toward them, raising his voice a bit. ]
[They had sensed him before he appeared. The wolf makes a soft sound, as auspicious as rolling thunder clouds, as subtle as the magma passing under their feet, directed at Issun. He only nods his head to her before standing up. He wouldn't lie--being tall was...something he had looked forward to, even more so since seeing his older self. The rush of confidence he had expected from it had passed; now, back on his travels--and nearing the end of his journey, he knew that--, he was a bit calmer about everything. It changed his perspective on things, quite literally, and as an artist, he couldn't let that change go unanalyzed....but those thoughts are for another time.
Presently, Issun continues to smile, hiding the weariness from traveling.] Natsume, you made it!
[ Natsume gave a small smile back, waving, though his eyes kept flickering to the wolf every other moment. Natsume liked to look at things, even if he knew it was probably rude. He mentally scolded himself then forced himself to keep his eyes on Issun. ]
[He waves a hand at Natsume's statement. To be perfectly honest, it's been in the back of his mind.
Way to continue looking at the wolf when Issun is so obviously not one inch tall anymore. ...He understands. That wolf is not ordinary in the least, after all, at least not to lose that have the tiniest sense of the supernatural in them. But even then, among those that are spirits or greater demons, there are quite a few who cannot identify her from any ordinary wolf. Issun smiles, and there's much pride in his voice now as he introduces her.] Oh, this...is Ammy. Amaterasu.
[And he refrains from saying the rest of her introduction, the 'Origin of all that is good and mother to us all', that her children seem so intent to ingrain into his mind
