Beginning note: I don't own Spirited Away, I'm not making any money off it, and this is all for the funzys.
Ablution - A ceremonial act of washing parts of the body or sacred containers
Sophistication
There was a sophistication about the witch Yubaba, an edge of the refined. And with that edge came one of ruthlessness. One of the drive to do whatever necessary to reach her goals.
And as she stood before them, the workers of the bathhouse flanking her as she blocked their path to freedom, Chihiro realized she was not going to let them leave without a fight. Because that wasn't within her best interest.
Kohaku touched down heavily onto the polished wood floor and it rumbled beneath his weight, creaking with strain when his tail slammed down upon it and claws leaving indentations where it fought to hold him.
The workers edged back, trying to escape the feeling of the floor wanting to cave in beneath them.
"That will be quite enough of that."Yubaba snapped, glaring at her employees until they returned to their stationary positions. " Do you know how much damage you've caused?" The witch then asked them as Chihiro slid from her dragons back, stepping forward to grab hold of his head and stroke the matted fur there.
After a short moment of lavishing affection on him and purposefully ignoring the older woman's question, Chihiro raised her eyes to face her.
"Should it really matter? Its not as if you can't magically fix it; I've seen you do it before."
Note: Morning everyone. -yawns- I'm... watching River Monsters and waiting for mum and papa to finally go out for the day so I can get to cleaning. You don't realize how hard it is to get a floor mopped with people constantly trying to walk on it.
Also, for those of you who might be doing Camp NaNoWriMo with me since I've gotten a few messages about it already, the story I've chosen to play with is Sentience; My novel I'm working on with the intent of publication. (Which I know is a bit of a cheat since I've got some of it written already) This would be the one that's got me on Hiatus so that I can finish it and I will be posting snippets of on their own website. So this is your chance to find out what it's about, see bits no one else gets to, and even have a hand in helping me with the plot.
