A/N: Another Touhou fic~ This one was trickier than expected to write, probably due to my lack of experience with Touhou characters.

Still, hope you enjoy~


Food For The Soul

Ken wasn't sure how long he'd been in the Netherworld.

Certainly for many years, at least; the seasons coming and going several times. One of many wandering spirits in the vast land he rarely kept track of time, often just wandering and taking in the sights, be it from a mountaintop to the riverside. His days were spent monotonously, leaving him almost in a constant daze, as if it was all a dream.

Until one day he stumbled upon a shrine by the name of Hakugyokurou. It was quiet, pretty place surrounded by cherry blossoms, and home to one Saigyouji Yuyuko – a beautiful, pink-haired princess who seemed to feel just as dreamy and out-of-it as he felt, if not moreso. It was his meeting with her, the way she offered him a smile and beckoned him close, that gave him some clarity at last – a change, from the constant wandering between dreamlike vistas and locales.

He hadn't even thought of it, but looking back meeting her was the moment he decided he was staying there. Better than wandering, if nothing else.

Naturally though Yuyuko's personal attendant, Youmu, wouldn't allow a freeloader to add to her already intimidating workload – thus, he was informally 'hired' to be a servant. From dusting the pathways to polishing the floors to cooking the meals, he operated alongside Youmu in keeping Hakugyokurou both spotless, and Yuyuko's desires also met. The latter duty led him to taking over for Youmu in the kitchen, much to the swordswoman's relief; allowing her to focus on other tasks whilst he dealt with their mistress's often-fickle wants.

All of which led to Ken's current situation. Preparing Yuyuko's dinner.

''Ken-kun~! Is it ready yet~?''

''Almost there, Yuyuko-sama.'' With a fond smile Ken smiled, hearing her distant voice almost echo down the halls.

Spooning several plentiful scoops of rice into a bowl the grey-haired mixed in the teriyaki and vegetables, mixing it all together as per her request. Though his memories of his past life were vague he must've been a cook of some kind due to having innate knowledge of cooking; needing only a single lesson from Youmu before the muscle memory and instincts came back to him. Considering he was on the older side, his hair grey but his body still somewhat youthful, he must've died quite suddenly.

The mystery of course intrigued him, part of him always having wanted to know what he was like in life, but at the same time he reasoned it was better left to rest – no use worrying over what had long since happened.

Taking that thought to heart the older man planted Yuyuko's bowl onto a wooden tray alongside his own, moving both their cups of tea onto the tray too before taking it into his hands; ferrying it through the long halls of the shrine.

Barely a minute later he reached his destination. Yuyuko's living room.

''Hm? Ah, food~!''

Chipper and with a slight trail of drool leaking out Yuyuko beamed up at him, knelt at the low table and eagerly waiting for her meal. Amused Ken laid the tray down, unsurprised when one bowl and cup of tea nigh-instantly vanished and rematerialised in front of the pink-haired princess, her chopsticks already tossing rice into her mouth with vigour. Much less in rush the older man sat down across from her, a wry smile on his lips as he started to eat as well.

It was a regular thing by this point, really, being able to eat with Yuyuko – but it never got old. Compared to the days of ceaselessly wandering the Netherworld just seeing Yuyuko's expressive reactions, how she cheered and cooed and smiled, all of it was so refreshing it captivated him. If Yuyuko ever noticed how allured he was she certainly didn't show it, happily munching away on his food with the occasional compliment thrown out between mouthfuls.

''I'll take this as a sign you like it?'' Ken inquired wryly.

''Mmph, ah, ghlp- yesh- Mm~'' Yuyuko managed to get a reply out between mouthfuls of rice, practically throwing food into her mouth, yet still managing to come off graceful whilst doing it.

''You'll get indigestion if you do that...'' Exasperatedly the older man remarked, pausing in his own meal to take a drink. ''Assuming you can, that is...''

Yuyuko just hummed something inaudible; finally taking a break from gobbling rice to take a gulp of her tea instead – this time stopping and yelping, burning her tongue on the hot liquid. Ken just smiled wryly at the sight and kept eating. The sight of Yuyuko going crazy over food wasn't a new one, but it remained as charming as it did the first time, if a bit exasperating at times. Still, many people in the underworld had their own hobbies and such, so he supposed her love of food wasn't that strange compared to most.

Gazing out through the open shoji door Ken admired the landscape as he ate, from the sparse foliage to the distance mountains, idly wondering what he did in his previous life. Was it old age that got him in the end? A heart attack, or some other organ failure? Was he murdered perhaps, and if so would his murderer recognise him if he turned up here too? Or maybe it was none of that, and he simply took his own life, for one reason or another? So many possibilities, from a grand conspiracy to something as simple as choking on a grain of rice; it was impossible to decipher how he came to this land. At least, for now. Perhaps in time the memory would returned to him, or at least make itself more clear.

Coming out of his deep thoughts he glanced down at his bowl – only to pause when he noticed the sounds of eating had stopped, prompting him to glance up.

To his surprise Yuyuko was quiet, her head down and her gaze distant. ''Yuyuko-sama? Are you alright?''

''Hm? Ah... yes... yes, I'm... alright.'' Her distant words betrayed her lie. ''...I suppose, as of late, I've been thinking more and more about reincarnation and such. The process, the act itself... and the implications. It's reminded me of the fact that there will come a day when you too might reincarnate too, or perhaps pass onto heaven.''

Ken chuckled lightly. ''Fret not, Yuyuko-sama, I'm a long way away from achieving the acclaimed Nirvana.''

Yuyuko hummed but still looked upset, brows knitting together and lips pursing worriedly. Seeing that Ken laid his bowl down and shifted around the table until he was sat side-by-side with the princess, a softer smile crossing his lips as he cupped her cheek. Only then did Yuyuko raise her head and look at him, downtrodden and food forgotten.

''Don't look so down, Yuyuko-sama.'' Ken said softly, caressing her cheek. ''I will stay by your side for as long as you need me.''

Yuyuko looked away. ''...and what if I want you to stay forever?''

''Then I'll stay forever.''

''Even if it means never being able to reincarnate?''

Ken chuckled wryly at that. ''With you, Yuyuko-sama, I wouldn't want to anyway.''

Yuyuko stared into space for a moment, before with a quiet sniffle she snaked her arms around him, hugging him close. Ken gladly returned the hug and held her close, head tucked into her shoulder and hers into his; both just basking in each other's warmth. Yuyuko wanted more than just a cuddle however, her head soon slipping from his shoulder and her cheek brushing against his own-

-then without warning the ghostly princess darted in, kissing him. It was sudden and quick but no less full of emotion, her hands snaking over his shoulders and around his upper-back almost possessively, holding him close and into the kiss. The shock wore off in seconds and he returned the kiss on instinct alone, one hand cupping her cheek and dragging it out for a few more precious moments, committing the sensation of her lips to memory.

Until the need to breathe drew them apart, a mutual exhale escaping them. ''Y-Yuyuko-sama...?''

''...just call me Yuyuko, please...'' The pink-haired woman murmured, gazing into his eyes. ''...and kiss me, more...''

Ken swallowed, and agreed. ''As you wish... Yuyuko...''

A smile lit up Yuyuko's beautiful visage –hidden as he claimed her lips in another kiss. He was slow but Yuyuko wanted more, clutching onto his robes with a muted hum, tempting him to hold the back of her head and deepen the kiss. Smiling into it Yuyuko let out a little moan, pulling back briefly for a gulp of air before reconnecting their lips. Still unsatisfied Yuyuko slid her hands into the folds of his yukata and nudged it open, moaning as she ran her palms along his pectorals,

''Mm...'' Happily moaning Yuyuko drew back from the kiss, panting. ''I feel so excited... these feelings rushing through me, making me feel so fuzzy...''

''Maybe because you're not used to it.'' Ken teased, earning a childish pout from the busty woman.

Any further words were quelled however as he claimed her lips in another kiss, devouring Yuyuko's happy moan, her arms snaking around his neck. In response he grabbed her waist and carefully picked the pink-haired ghost princess up, rising to his feet a moment later – bouncing Yuyuko in his arms until he had a firmer hold on the back of her thighs. Daringly one hand slid to her ass and groped it, earning a delighted sound from his mistress, her lips mashing against his with increasing want.

Step by step Ken left the living room, carrying her back to her bedroom only a short ways down the hall – letting Yuyuko reach back and tug the door open. Carrying her inside he paused long enough to let her shut it before guiding her to the futon, laying his mistress upon the white sheets, her weight leaving his hands and allowing them to slide up her thighs, making Yuyuko shiver from the sensation.

''Mn, hehe...'' Smiling almost sleepily Yuyuko slid her hands down to her obi sash, untying it. ''Do continue... teaching me more~''

The teasing lilt to her words coloured Ken's cheeks, but with a hum of compliance he leaned down and pecked her on the lips – swiftly moving down south. With her obi sash loosened it wasn't hard to pull her yukata open, revealing her large breasts hidden behind a loosely-tied sarashi; the bandages unwinding with little more than a few persistent tugs, letting Ken run his eyes over her large, heaving tits fully. Their large size alone was too big to hold but that hardly stopped the man from trying, both hands cupping her boobs from below, groping her.

His tentative squeeze coaxed a moan from Yuyuko's lips – one that rose in pitch as he took her right nipple into his mouth, sucking on the pink nub. His tongue whipped against the soft nipple, stroking it about and making her legs squirm under him, her moans rich and almost addictive in his ears, encouraging him to swap to her other nipple and suck on that one too. He wasn't satisfied with just sucking on her tits though; his lips popping off the pink nub and sliding down her breasts, trailing kisses past them and down her smooth stomach.

''Mn... a-ahh...'' An aroused whine escaped Yuyuko, one hand resting on his head as he went lower – moving down to her pelvis.

A pair of pink panties hugged her curvy waist, lasting all of a few moments before he pulled them down her long legs, leaving them on the floor next to the futon. Yuyuko smiled dreamily down at him, legs opening up for him and allowing him between them – and a cute moan arose from Yuyuko's lips as his tongue stroked her slit, teasing her lips before two fingers spread them open; allowing Ken to push his tongue inside.

And force a moan from Yuyuko's throat as he started eating her out. Completely unfamiliar with the sensation Yuyuko melted into putty before him, both hands hurriedly grasping onto the futon sheets and letting a gasp shoot free of her lips, pleasure making her grow stiff as a board. Ken relished the sight, looking up her front and watching her stomach tense and her large breasts heave, unable to see her face due to her ample bust size.

''Ah, wow, t-that feels so... w-wonderful...!'' Yuyuko gasped out, jerking briefly when his nose rubbed against her clit. ''Myn, that part there... feels even better...''

Chuckling softly Ken took the hint, one thumb sliding up to tease the little bundle of nerves. Though he hadn't been with any women since coming to the underworld there was an innate knowledge to his movements, acting almost on instinct as he wormed his tongue around Yuyuko's sex – tasting her wet arousal easily. He licked her hungrily, eager to please his beloved mistress and aiming for the spots that made her moan the most.

''Mm! Oh, yes~'' Yuyuko's pleased moan told her he liked that very much.

Finding himself getting addicted to the sound Ken pulled his tongue out and slid his hand down instead, giving Yuyuko barely a few seconds of warning before he stuck two fingers inside her womanhood – eliciting a mewl from the busty woman as he started pumping them inside her. He was equally as skilled with his fingers as he was with his tongue, pumping them in-and-out of her slick nether lips, his digits coming out wet before he swiftly jammed it back inside.

His tongue wasn't idle either and went for her clit; licking the little nub with long up-down strokes, nearly making Yuyuko clamp her legs shut around his head had she not stopped herself, moaning as she forced herself to relax. In response he pulled his tongue back momentarily before swirling the tip of his tongue around her clit, the constant near-touches making her tighten around his fingers, the anticipation driving her crazy.

''Ah, Ken-kun, please, a-ah... I need it...'' Yuyuko whimpered.

Ken made her wait a little longer, inserting a third finger inside in the meantime and fingering her faster – pumping his slick digits in-and-out of her wet heat, his fingertips rubbing against multiple sweet spots within her, scratching an itch she didn't know she had. All whilst his tongue kept circling her clit or licking alongside it, never giving Yuyuko the satisfaction of feeling his tongue on the needy bundle of nerves.

Until at last, just as she whimpered for more – he licked her clit.

And unintentionally pushed Yuyuko over the edge. ''Hii~!''

The high-pitched squeal filled his ears as Yuyuko climaxed; walls clamping tightly around his three fingers and her curvaceous frame spasming before him. Honey squirted around his fingers and her legs clamped tightly shut around his arm, her stomach taut and bucking her waist towards his hand.

Ken relished the sight, watching her naked frame spasm and buckle as pleasure overtook her, slowing his thrusting fingers down bit by bit and easing her down from her orgasmic high. Only when it ended did he withdraw his fingers from her pussy, relishing the cute moan that tumbled freely from Yuyuko's lips, her heaving breathing making her chest heave with every gulping breath.

''Hah... wow, hehe... my whole body's tingly now...'' Yuyuko murmured more to herself than him, giggling. ''Let's not stop yet, Ken-kun...''

Ken hummed, not protesting his mistress's desire – spending a moment to unfasten his own obi and get his hakama pants off before he shifted between Yuyuko's legs, his underwear discarded in the process. The pink-haired princess smiled up at him and spread her legs open wider to make it easier, letting him stroke his cock to full hardness, rubbing the underside up against her lower lips almost idly.

''Myn, don't tease me~'' Yuyuko whined, spreading her pussy open with two fingers – inviting him inside her. ''Let's feel good together, okay~''

''As you wish, Yuyuko.'' Ken murmured, lining himself up – and then finally pushed inside. ''Mn...!''

Beneath him Yuyuko gasped; the pink-haired princess arching her back with mouth hanging wide open as he took her first time, his girth spearing between her slick walls. She was incredibly tight, her insides constricting his length like a vice as he eased himself deeper into her, every inch a challenge and forcing a stiff groan from Ken's throat, his mind fuzzy from the pleasure. That didn't stop him from going in deeper however, planting his hands on either side of her and burying himself in more and more; until soon he was buried up to the hilt inside her.

Yuyuko mewled at that, both legs rubbing against his hips and her hands grasping onto his shoulders, pulling him down into a sudden, but not unwanted kiss. He moaned into it and grabbed one of her breasts in return, fondling her heaving tit as he let her adjust to his size, her insides smothering his shaft pleasurably. Getting more into it he prodded her teeth with his tongue, tempting the princess to part them; letting their tongues meet and lewdly wrestle together.

Until soon the need to breathe drew them apart; both exhaling a shaky breath. ''H-Haah...''

Ken shuddered as he felt he walls constrict him tightly, the blissful feeling prompting him to slowly pull back, intimately feeling her walls constrict his shaft up until only the head was left inside – encouraging him to bury himself back inside up to the hilt. A hot moan answered him, another one soon following as he pistoned into her once more, his thrusts slow but firm. Yuyuko moaned blissfully at the feeling and wrapped her legs around his waist, silently asking for him to move more, almost begging for it.

Faced with such need Ken couldn't refuse; a stiff groan escaping his throat as he pumped into her faster. Flesh audibly smacked against flesh as he picked up speed, his hands shifting and sliding before settling onto her breasts, groping her heavy boobs about and making the ghost princess moan his name, her walls tightening around his throbbing girth. Spicing it up he changed his pace, pounding faster and faster – only to slow down and pump slowly into her, savouring the feeling of her walls massaging his cock.

''Ah, Ken-kun... a-ahh~'' Yuyuko could barely form words; moaning in unadulterated bliss as he kissed her again – the simple act only further fuelling her bliss. ''Faster, please, let me feel you... I want you... to n-never leave~''

Ken responded with another kiss, devouring her cute moan in the process. Heat swelled up his cock but he held back, his hands alternating between massaging her breasts or planted on the floor, steadying him as he pistoned between her slick nether lips. His hands settled on the floor when Yuyuko tugged him into a string of hurried, moan-filled kisses; smooching him desperately as he fucked her senseless.

''Yes, y-yes...!'' Yuyuko gasped against his lips, tightening around his girth. ''I'm, ah... a-ah...!''

The heat, the tightness; it was becoming too much, too intense. Combined with Yuyuko's beautiful moans and flushed face, and Ken found himself reaching his limit – a limit he quickly reached. ''Y-Yuyuko- Mn!''

His attempt at pulling out failed as Yuyuko held his waist tighter, pushing him balls-deep inside her – and with a gasp he came inside her. White-hot pleasure fried his mind and he was only peripherally aware of Yuyuko climaxing with him, her shrill squeal filling the bedroom as they orgasmed together; His hot load splattered across her walls as he kept jerking his hips in short, hurried thrusts, his muscles all locking up as the pleasure became too much.

Until with a tight groan he sheathed himself fully within her, then pulled out. Yuyuko's limp legs spilled apart, a cute mewl tumbling from her lips as she let him free – allowing him to see the plentiful amount of cum leaking out of her. He wasn't sure whether or not he could knock her up given they were technically spirits, but any such questions faded from his mind as his lover suddenly pulled him down into a hug, cooing happily as she nuzzled his shoulder.

''Mm... feels so warm, eheh~'' With a sleepy giggle Yuyuko held him close, content. ''Let's stay like this, for a bit, hm...?''

''...as you wish, Yuyuko.'' With a gentle kiss to her forehead he agreed.

The ghost princess merely giggled happily, hugging him adoringly back.
