Here the amateur spams again. Another (this time a bit longer) drabble with an endlessly patient Kojuurou and a drunken Masamune. It's just knocked off crack, if anyone can laugh about it, it's a success x'D
Feedback, criticism and corrections (I'm not native speaker) very welcome!
Often they wouldn't talk. They'd just sit beneath the night sky, watch the stars and drink some sake together.
Maybe faint scenes of the last battle flickered across their minds or preparations that needed to be done for the approaching winter... but then their thoughts would just drift away as swiftly as they had appeared... and only the presence of the other reminded them of themselves. Anything else was trivial. Words were trivial. This atmosphere couldn't be put into words. It just could be enjoyed, as long as they still had each other... and so, in silence, they'd drink to each other... ... but sometimes, sake wasn't enough.
Sometimes they wanted to drown in the other's presence. Even if it was just for a fleeting moment, for that moment they wanted to feel like they could never be seperated, like they'd be connected forever, regardless of what the future held for them. It's not like they didn't know you can't outsmart reality. But for a moment at least, they wanted to create a reality of their own.
And tonight, such a moment had come.
"I think you had enough, Masamune-sama."
- "Oh come on, Kojuurou, the night's still young!"
"But I fear I'm not that young anymore, I can't keep up with you."
- "No problem~ I'll drink your part!"
"That wasn't my intention... well, if you will excuse me, I think it's better for both of us to get some restorative sleep."
- "What, you're leaving already!? But it's no fun without you!"
"You weren't listening at all, Masamune-sama..."
- "If you so desperately wanna sleep, sleep here with me under the night sky, haha~"
"You definitely had enough, Masamune-sama..."
- "I will never have enough, Kojuurou, I thought you knew! See, here's to you! *gulp*"
"*sigh* Indeed, I should have known... I understand, I'll stay here on condition that you stop drinking!"
- "What!? Then how do you intend to relax? A man needs a decent drink once in a while! You're always so stiff, Kojuurou, not cool at all!"
"I'm your right eye, it seems like I have to play the rather boring but reasonable part, Masamune-sama..."
- "Tch, just listening to you makes me all sober. Ok, ok, so bedtime it is? Alright~ put your futons on! err out!"
"Coming right away..."
- "... you actually weren't kidding..."
"I hope I made it comfortable enough. Good night, Masamune-sama."
- "Oi, Kojuurou, that's not funny!"
"..."
- "Kojuurou!?"
"..."
- "I, the One-eyed Dragon of Oushuu, order you to stay awake, Kojuurou!"
"Your right eye's afraid that it's too tired to take orders, it humbly apologizes."
- "HA! You're actually able to make jokes!? Like it! Let's see... are you still able to sleep if I tickle you here *poke* and there *poke* and..."
"SAY, HOW OLD ARE YOU!? ... err, Masamune-sama..."
- "Pff... hahahaha~ you're so cute when you're mad. Alright, I'll have mercy on you, just have a goodnight kiss *chuu~* Tonight was fun after all, haha, sorry, Kojuurou. Good night."
"... Good night, Masamune-sama..."
And with that, it seemed like the One-eyed Dragon finally called it a day and staggered to bed... it seemed.
- "Oi, Kojuurou."
"..."
- "Kojuurou, are you asleep?"
"..."
- "Your futon looks more comfortable, mind if I join?"
"......."
- "Oh well, if you're asleep, you won't notice anyway."
*rustle* pull* push* rustle*
"... ... it's rather like you WANT me to notice, Masamune-sama ***"
- "Oh, you noticed?"
"... *SIGH* Ok, I think I understand what you're up to."
- "You do?"
"Guess I have no choice if I want to have at least a couple of hours of sleep..."
- "Come on, don't make it sound like you don't want it at all."
"Hm, I was already half asleep, so... *grumble*"
- "I'll make up for it~"
"I know."
The rest is up to your fantasy~
