Journey Awakening #34

Dominans

So we just... wait out here? My hooves are freezing, Bya.

Byakuren hijiri

Patience, little calamity. Yukari's gaps appear when they will.... eventually.

Dominans

Why can we wait inside instead?

Byakuren hijiri

Centuries ago she agreed not to gap in. A promise to a temple is a promise to the Buddha himself. Even Yukari respects religion.

Byakuren hijiri

Besides, the night air calms the blood after sparring. Feel how your heartbeat slows?

Dominans

My heartbeat's fine. My everything else is just... short and cold.

Dominans

Oh I forgot yukari gave me a device to return to her anytime. Maybe that's why the gap hasn't appeared.

Byakuren hijiri

Well then. atleast we had a nice time looking at the full moon. Your welcome back to the temple anytime.

Dominans

Thanks for the spar, Bya! Next time, I won't treat it as a spar so you better not keep dodging.

Byakuren hijiri

I see...I'll be sure to keep that in mind, farewell.

Byakuren hijiri

My. That stare she gave me certainly sent shivers down my shoulders. Perhaps some late night meditation will help.
