Let us satisfy each other's curiosity: you may photograph my stunning visage without any concern. My hair - I'm sure you are dismayed to learn - cannot exist without attachment. A strange little quirk of survival!
Precisely. Imagine a witch's brew with eye of vampire! Our existence is in twilight; we are mere shadows. My blood is too potent - that is the exception. More or less.
Not that I need a memorial of those two. We will die together.
some, but there are a few that are mine outright. gifts from dignitaries, things like that. though, i imagine if i did decide to try hocking any of them, i'd come up against the same brand of opposition i got when i suggested selling some of the unused pieces in the armory or floated repurposing a few of the dozens of uninhabited buildings set aside for my residence...

thanks, but no thanks. i don't want to see what the aftermath of having you use either of those options could look like. we could probably find room for you somewhere in those thirty odd empty buildings though...
mostly i was thinking of another potential assassination i'd have to live down, but i want to see that so much less when you describe it as a 'peaceful brutality'.

And set aside a residence for me while you're at it, hm? We must have privacy for our scandalous book club.

Wouldn't it be a fun affair? A mystery man in your largest, most opulent setting? Give the old ladies something spicy to gossip about, Youko.

Keep my what I've said in mind nonetheless. If only for nights when you're unable to sleep.

and what happened to planning your costume? gave up when you heard i couldn't pin your hair up or loan you the crown?
no subject
I hadn't given up, merely taking the scenic route. Although it is, truthfully, less fun of an idea without your sparkling accessories.
no subject
we won't be able to find anything like the ones from han, but we could probably find some comparable kogai hairpins.
no subject
Shall we consider that settled? I trust you will handle the styling personally?
no subject
me? you sure? i can try, but you'll be taking a risk with that imperial dignity.
