Saizo and Spring Kagero
B Support
:
Saizo: I have returned.
Spring Kagero: Why? I thought you were still mad at me for having fun for once in my life.
Saizo: I realise… That out of all the arguments we've ever had… this is easily the worst.
Spring Kagero: Yes, I agree.
Saizo: And I dislike being mad at you. You are a close companion o mine – regardless of the universe.
Spring Kagero: [blushes] Thank you.
Saizo: So, I apologise.
Saizo: [pause]
Spring Kagero: …Is that it? Is that the whole of your apology?
Saizo: Yes.
Spring Kagero: A man of few words, as per usual. Well, words speak quieter than actions. Will you amend your behaviour in any way?
Saizo: Yes. I intend to.
Spring Kagero: Oh? I'm intrigued. Explain.
Saizo: I recall you yelling after me after my… abrupt exit. You said something to the effect of that I never take the time to relax. I agree. Since you appear capable of devoting time to both yourself and to your liege, I thought you might be able to help me do the same. I do not wish to intrude upon you, of course.
Spring Kagero: You are one of my greatest companions as well, Saizo. I would be honoured to show you how I relax. Of course, what works for one person, may not work for another. After all, look at flowers: some require no light and much water, others require plenty of light and little water. We all wilt and flourish differently.
Saizo: I understand.
Spring Kagero: Still, it would please me immensely if I could share my leisure with you.
Saizo: Thank you.
Spring Kagero: Let's meet again soon then. I will bring the paint supplies.
Spring Kagero: [leaves]
Saizo: …Paint supplies? I have heard many rumours about Kagero's art. I hear it is particularly awful. I doubt whatever she produces will soothe me or my 'artistic' soul. Still, I want to try and make amends. I will lie to her as necessary.
