[So I apparently thought to renew this journal but not the one for some variety of murderbirb? I have no idea what pastme was doing.

But. It's been a long couple months for a certain siren and the prince she technically probably kidnapped a little bit. One has to assume that by now, they have been picked up by the northerners, and there's been a funny game where everyone involved knows who Renn is, but Kohane has basically straight up denied answering that directly to anyone, because plausible deniability is the best party trick. How she's getting away with basically continually lying to the King with a straight face is a mystery for the ages.

But, they've been put up somewhere and so, tired from another round of "no, he's totally just some other guy named renn, wow he does look a lot like the prince isn't that weird", Kohane's come back to wherever they're staying. You know. Having left Renn to his own devices in a new country with a probably unprecedented amount of freedom with his time.

She's not smart.]

You're not allowed into my sketchbooks because they're mine, and not yours. I don't know why that's such a difficult concept for most people to get.

[Oh, he's one of those artists. Also yes this probably means absolute filth on some pages.]

I think it'd be less difficult if I wasn't 100% sure you keep drawing me, Renn.

[yeah, buddy, she knows.]

Can you blame me for being curious?

Of course I've drawn you. We've spent a lot of time together... and I'm supposed to draw things around me, especially the interesting things. It's how you get better as an artist, right?

Hmmmm.

[...That tone. That is the tone of a raksha who is plotting.]

What're you planning now, Kohane?

[He is seriously suspicious here. No one is more suspicious than he is right now. It is not possible.]

How best to aid artistic endeavors?

[This is probably going places. Naked places.]

Sounds like my reading was right. Back to palace, then?

Sounds like a plan.

[Let us be off to do things in the guest rooms that Night might judge them a whole fucking lot for.]

[I think Night probably should give up all rights on judging people given some of the shit that her and Masaru have probably gotten up to in the castle, given his spoiled kitty empress... ahem.]

[Right, back to the castle.]

[She's a big sister she gets to judge whatever the hell she wants.

ANYWAY.

Through mysteries best not explained, as they've gotten back Kohane is...well. Pretty much shedding her clothing as soon as the door closes.]

I only saw a couple of the classes at the academy but...this is how it supposed to work, yes?

[Kohane you know damn well how modeling works. Don't even pretend this isn't about making Renn choke.]

I-I... yes, that is how modeling works, a-and how did you get undressed so fast, anyways?

[Seriously they just got in and now she's naked? Mostly naked? He is so confused.]

Magic.

[That is a total abuse of Rakshasha's inherent ki manipulation Kohane.]

Complaining?

N-no, just... surprised.

[Look, he's found his sketchbook and supplies.]

Just, uh, I suppose get comfortable?

As you wish.

[Yeah, she's finding somewhere to lounge and, well. She might have arranged herself to be able to basically eyefuck him without moving any.

She's real good at being a total shit.]

[Well, he's trying to at least be the professional artist and get a decent sketch going of her, but if he's only rapidly turning redder and redder and may just faint at some point at this rate.]

Re-n-n~

[Kohane that's the opposite of helping.]

You seem a little distracted...

C-can you blame me?!

[He's just gonna... thumbnail this really quickly and close his sketchbook with a bit of a sulk.]

[Aw, no. Come here, sulky artist.]

Hey, now, don't make that face...I had to pay you back a little bit, but you know I'd behave if you asked me to, right?

[...The way she says that kind of implies he could basically command anything of her, doesn't it?]

[He sighs and just stares at her, tossing aside his sketchbook before he walks over.]

Now that I don't believe for a second...

...You really should.

[She will sit up a little when he comes over, though, and reach out for his hand as soon as it's in reach, so she can kiss the back of it.]

Or do you think the King can keep Misaki in line just by being frighteningly powerful, even after having seen her?

I assumed he was a sorcerer of some sort... They also have children together, so they clearly reached some kind of decision. What're you trying to tell me?

[He is fine with her having his hand, though...]

Power's got nothing to do with it. She loves him...not a one of us can deny someone we love. No Raksha can...it's why it's considered such a bad idea for us to fraternize with mortals.

[Just. Sliding that out. Waiting for it to click.]

Wait, me? You're saying that you... and me?

[You have to wonder why he can logically get this because he's talked basically about it before but emotionally this is stumbling him up.]

And that that binds you to me?

[Well he got that part at least.]

I thought I was pretty clear about it in the woods, Renn!

[She laughs a little, and then pulls him down so she can bump her forehead to his.]

For as long as you live, yes.

[He bumps his forehead to hers, and smiles.]

Well, I guess I'll have to be responsible with this power...

[She wanted a kiss, right?]
