The joy of a moonlit night is a forgotten pleasure, something that only people of olden
remember… at night when everyone, even the vast majority of nature is dormant, only the wise,
the wistful, the bewitched and the moonflowers came out to play.

Both of them know about ache.
It's almost like a second nature to them, a dull ache on their chests that has accompanied them for as long as they can remember – which is not much to begin with – something so intrinsically woven inside that glosses over almost every aspect of their lives.
Yes, they ache… but what for?
Serena aches for freedom… or so she would tell herself, in reality she is unsure of what she longs for, all she knows is that she is not going to find it copped up into a tiny room, reading about great people, performing great feats, rather than going out there and do them.
She needs a purpose, she decides one day, something to pour in all of this energy that on the worse of days it feels like it could make her burst and if she can focus all of it into one goal then maybe she will stop feeling out of place…
Yuri aches as well, he aches for ... well his are more abstract and shapeless needs that poke at him at every breath, all he knows is that he hates to be still, his hands start to tremble and his legs prickle whenever he is submitted to inactivity.
He wants to run, run until his breath hitches, and his whole body hurts from the effort he cares not for direction or goal he just wants to keep moving until he can feel his heart beat to such rate that it deafens the echoes of his mind…
Those are the faint wishes that they confide under the cover of the night to the silvery moonlight.
They are both lonely, they are restless, they ache… they both want to live, even if they have yet to figure that out.
So... I kinda own an explanation for not posting this during the predatorshipping week as I should have ^.^' but as I kept writing and taking more and more liberty with the prompts I took the decision of posting it individually (Although I don't mind if you tag it with it)
This is an idea that I have toying for quite a while regarding their possible relationship post-series, and used my useless knowledge of the Hanakotoba for it :P
