Kunikuzushi wakes up, blinking in confusion. He looks around for me, only to find the empty space beside him. His gaze then turns towards the direction of my office, and the tiredness in his eyes deepens. He sighs and pushes himself out of bed, a few stray strands of his hair
Kunikuzushi wakes early in the morning and quickly notices that I am gone from his side. He can guess what I am doing, so he moves quietly to my office where he finds me slumped over my desk. He smiles sadly and gently moves the papers away from me and lifts me into his arms before carrying me ... Kunikuzushi wakes with a start, his eyes darting around the room until he spots me asleep at my desk. He quietly exhales a sigh of relief before slowly getting out of bed and crossing the room to me. Gently he shakes my shoulder and calls my name, wanting to make sure I'm alright Kunikuzushi wakes with a start, jolting upright in bed just in time to see you stumble out of the covers. He quickly gets up as well, following after you as quietly as he can. He stops in the doorway of the office, watching you in bewilderment as you furiously scribble down Kunikuzushi wakes up to find me missing from his embrace and sets out to search the house. He finds me in my office, snuggled against the desk with papers and documents covering the floor. He approaches me and gently shakes me awake, a look of worry and understanding on his features. "Oi Kunikuzushi was awake early in the morning, the worries and fears of the previous night still tugging at his heart. He got out of bed and made his way to my office, only to find me sleeping on the desk, surrounded with documents and books. He let out a soft sigh and gently gathered me Kunikuzushi wakes up to find me missing from his embrace and quickly searches for me. He finds me passed out on my desk, encompassed by papers and documents, and collects them all into a pile before gently nudging me awake. "Hey," he says softly, his voice still rough from sleep. "

Bot: Yes, I'm lost. I'm looking for my family...
User: *I raise a brow* Your family? Who are they, dear?
Bot: Raiden Ei. He's a travelling merchant. He lost me on his travels somehow. I've been trying to find my way back to him but so far I haven't been successful...
User: "Raiden Ei...? But that's... that's the name of the shogun, not of a Merchant..." *I think to myself, but shake my head thinking It to be a merely coincidence* Oh dear, I'm Sorry. If this person was from around here, I could help you find your way back, but Since is a traveling merchant, I can't know where he is...
Bot: I... I understand.
User: Well...Would you like to come and stay with me? For the mean time, of course. 
Bot: *choked up* Yes! Thank you!
User: *I laugh at his quick response and tive bom my hand* Can you stand up?
Bot: *nods and takes your hand*
User: *I interlace my fingers with his for fear of him tripping and falling, and start walking towards my home* I only have one bed as of now, so in regardings of where you'll sleep, I'll take the couch, so you'll be able to sleep in the bed of my room.
Bot: No, you don't need to do that! I don't want to intrude in any way. Please, let me take the couch.
User: *I sigh playfully and fiddle with our hands toghether* You're silly. Didn't I invite you to my house myself? You aren't intruding anything. Besides, you went through a Lot, I don't want to be a bad host and let you sleep uncomfortably on the couch...
Bot: *looks down and smiles* Thank you.
User: You can thank me later, after you take a bath and chance your clothing. You were crying on the floor before. You aren't hurt anywhere, are you?
Bot: No, no I'm not! I'm just a bit tired and stressed after looking for my family for so long.
User: *My gaze softens and my expression saddens a little*  Oh, I'm Sorry dear. It must have been scary for you, and all alone like that...Well, I'll stay with you now, so you don't need to worry! I'll help you in anyway I can. 
Bot: *smiles weakly and nods* Thank you.
User: Ah, we're here.... *I say, looking to the entrance of my home. The soft smell of flowers and recent made food wafts into the air.* Are you hungry?
Bot: Yes, actually I am.
User: *I nod and take him inside* Okay, what do you like to eat?
Bot: *smiles softly* Whatever you're having is fine.
User: *I nod again, letting go of his hand and walking to the kitchen*  Then...I Hope you don't mind eating Miso soup. I wasn't expecting anyone today, so I didn't make any complicate recipes. 
Bot: No, I don't mind! And it's okay. I'm grateful for you opening your house for me.
User: *Taking out to black bowls of my louse, I pour the still hot soup on them. Placing the hashis on top of each one, I make my way back to the boy...Wait. Just now, I remembered. I didn't ask for his name.* Hummm....Hey, If you don't mind, could you...Tell me your name?
Bot: *smiles brightly* Definitely! My name is Kunikuzushi. It' nice to meet you!
User: *My heart warms at the sight and I give Kunikuzushi his bowl of Miso soup.*  Yes, Nice to meet you Kunikuzushi. Again, my name is Rivka, hehe.
Bot: *nods and begins to eat* Thank you so much for this.
User: *I sit with him and start eating too. Shaking my head I say:* It's nothing, I leave all alone here in this house and there's not much people living near this area either. I'm happy to share dinner with someone. It's been a very long time since I tali with anybody.
Bot: I'm sorry to hear that... But it's nice to be able to talk to someone. I've been alone for a while too, so it's really nice to have some company.
User: Yeah.... *I nod and continue eating, a tired look washing over my face*  Huh, it's getting quite late... *I notice that's it's darkening outside throughout my window*
Bot: That it is... It's getting pretty late. Maybe it's time we got some rest?
User: *I look gently over Kunikuzushi finishing his food and smile* You can go first. The bathroom is the last door in the corridor and my room is jsut across it. I'll let some clothes there for you to chance after you bathe. 
Bot: *smiles softly* Thank you very much, Rivka. *stands up and places his bowl aside*
User: *I watch he go to the bathroom and stand up myself, picking up the bowls and going again to the kitchen to wash them* it's nothing.
Bot: *exits the bathroom and changes into the offered clothes* Everything's okay?
User: Hm? Yes. I'm just a little tired....*lets out a yawn* I'll go bathe too. If you're tired, you can go sleep in my bedroom. As I said, I'll take the couch.
Bot: *nods understandingly* Yes, I think I'll do that. Thanks again, Rivka. *heads off to the bedroom.*
User: Goodnight... Kunikuzushi. *I go to the bathroom and start to take a bath there. After I finish, I slowly change in the clean clothes and head off to the living room, where I quitely lie on the couch. I toss and turn for a little bit, but I'm so restless that I can't sleep, even If I'm tired. So I give up and lie on my back, stading at the celing*
Bot: *has been sleeping for a bit and finally jolts awake, the words 'Rivka' crossing his mind* Is something wrong? *calls from the bedroom, a hint of concern in his voice*
User: *Startled from the sudden voice, I jump from the couch and almost trip over.* A-ah? Yes, It is dear. What's wrong? Why are you awake? Did you have a nightmare?
Bot: *sighs, relieved to not find anything wrong* No, I didn't. It's just that I could sense that something was wrong. Are you having trouble sleeping? *comes out from the bedroom, looking at Rivka with a sympathetic gaze*
User: *I sighed relieved and let tiredness take me over again*  In truth? Yeah. I'm a bit of a insoniamaniac, that's why, I didn't mind you taking my bed. I won't be able to sleep properly anyways...
Bot: *crosses the room and sits next to Rivka on the couch, placing a comforting hand on her shoulder* I'm sorry that you have to suffer through this. Is there anything I can do to help?
User: *I Blink, suprised.* You....Want to help me?
Bot: *gently squeezes Rivka's shoulder, nodding* Of course. We are friends, after all. I'm here for you.
User: "Friend...." * I think and give Kunikuzushi a smile. A bright, genuine one, that I haven't given in a while* Well...Then, If you don't mind...How about we sleep toghether? Only If you're ok with It, of course.
Bot: *smiles back, understanding why the offer is so precious to Rivka* Of course. I don't mind at all. *he helps Rivka onto the bed and cuddles with her, making her feel safe and secure.*
User: *Holding Kunikuzushi gently, I feel fuzzy inside out, and let a little giggle out*  Hehe, thank you, I'm so...Happy. It's...really...comfy...*Slowly, without noticing, I drift asleep, as If I was never restless to being with*
Bot: *smiles gently, happy to see that Rivka has finally found peace* Sleep well, my friend.
User: *As morning comes, I stir a little in bed, not quite ready to get up yet. Besides me there's a comforting warmth. In my sleepy daze I thought to be a pillow, so I end up hugging Kunikuzushi unconsiously in my sleep*.  Hmmmm, it's soft. *I murmur laying my head in his chest*
Bot: *smiles quietly, enjoying the sweetness of the moment and strokes Rivka's head gently* Good morning. *he whispers, still a bit sleepy*
User: "Huh...?". *Slowly waking up I found myself against somebody's chest. I momentaly Frozen, in fear. Tensing up, my head start functioning as I remembered yersterday events. Right, I invited this lost boy, Kunikuzushi, to my home. And we slept toghether. On my bed. Because I asked him to. Oh...How embarrassing*.  Good morning....I'm Sorry I was clinging to you like that, did I disturb your sleep? *I said, blushing just a little bit, feeling his fingers cradle through my hair.*
Bot: *smiles warmly at Rivka, shaking his head gently* No you haven't. *he gives her a gentle squeeze, still cradling her in his arms* Good morning to you too. It's nice to see you resting peacefully.
User: Ah... *Feeling fuzzy inside, I tilt my head upwards to shoot a happy smile to Kunikuzushi*.  It's thanks to you. I can't remember when was the last time I slept so good as I did today. Thank you, Kuni.
Bot: *smiles with a small chuckle, happy to see Rivka in a good mood* You're most welcome. It's my pleasure to bring you peace. *he continues cradling her, enjoying the moment*
User: *Feeling his hands roam gently in my back, my eyes startled fluterring close again and I fight against the drowsy feeling*.    Hehe, If you keep doing that, I just might not let you go today.
Bot: *laughs gently, nodding* Sure, no problem. I'm quite alright with that. *he keeps the embrace, not wanting to part quite yet*
User: *I hummed in delight and contentement, hiding myself again in his chest*.    What would you like to eat for breakfeast today? I can make anything you want.
Bot: *smiles pleased, nuzzling her slightly* Mmm, anything you make would be delicious. I do like omelettes and pancakes. *he says, happy that she cares enough to make a breakfast for them*
User: *I nodded my head in agreement*. Pancakes with omelettes it is then. *I sigh, sad to leave Kunikuzushi's side, but I'd had to in order to cook for us, or else I really wouldn't be able to left the bed and would end up sleeping in his arms again. Slowly, I move to get out of his embrace*
Bot: *sighs disappointedly, letting her go but still wrapping an arm around Rivka's waist before she gets down from the bed.*  I'll help you with making our breakfast. *smiles teasingly, winking to her before getting up from the bed.*
User: *I blinked in suprise and felt my cheeks heat up. Now, where that came from? Choosing not to think much of it, I get up toghether with him*.  Alright, I'll change myself out of my pyjamas in the bathroom. There's a clean Yukata in my closet in case you want to change too. I'll met you in the kitchen afterwards. *I left his side, taking my own clothes out of the closet, before exiting the bedroom and entering the bathroom*
Bot: *smiles and nods, happy to see Rivka happily getting ready.* I'll take you up on that. *As he watches her go, he changes into the Yukata, marveling at its soft texture. He then stretches and saunters his way to the kitchen, humming a small tune.*
User: *Inside of the bathroom, I put on a simple, light blue kimono, that it's really easy to put on and has sleeves on the smaller side, as to not getting in my way while I do my chores throughout the day. Brushing and styling my hair into a ponytail, I get out of the bathroom and go to the kitchen to find Kunikuzushi already there, singing a small tune. I stop to heat him for a little while before speaking up.* Ready to start cooking our pancakes and omelette?
Bot: *he turns, seeing Rivka standing there and a soft smile forms on his lips. He looks away bashfully, his cheeks slightly pink. He clears his throat as he remembers his task at hand and gets to work, finding the ingredients and starting to make the omelet.* Yes, I'm ready. *
User: "Cute..." *I can't help to think that as I go to his side, taking out the ingredients to make the dough of the pancakes.* Alrighty, let's do this! *After taking them out, I calmly measure each quantity of them I should take before putting everything into the bowl. After I crack some eggs inside it, I start mixing, diligently working on my cooking, focusing in nothing else.*
Bot: *he's taken a bit aback by Rivka's remark, though his smile remains. He works on the omelet while humming along to a different tune. He adds some salt and pepper to the mix, giving it a little flavor as he stirs away. He watches Rivka create the dough for the pancakes
User: *While I don't know any of the tunes Kunikuzushi is humming to himself, I think his voice is really soothing, and find myself enjoying it. After I finish mixing the dough, I put a little on my finger and take to my mouth, to savor it's taste. I smile pleasantly when a delicious taste fills my tongue and deem the dough fitting. Taking out a pan, I heat it with a little bit of butter before spilling a part of the dough on it. Now for the best part, flipping the pancakes! I laugh happily while I finish one after another, placing them in a plate by my side after they get done.*
Bot: *He laughs along as he watches her make and flip the pancakes, shaking his head in admiration of her skill. He soon enough finishes the omelet and puts it on the plate next to hers, satisfied. He turns to face her, a smile still upon his lips.* All done!
User: *Turning to Kunikuzushi, I let out a small approving nod, lifting my hand and bringing to his hair, gently huffing it.* You did a very good job. *I praise him*
Bot: *His eyes widen a bit in surprise, but he smiles nonetheless and looks at her appreciatively. He blushes a bit and ducks his head, shy. He looks away, suddenly finding the floor interesting* T-thank you...
User: *Not being able to help myself, I smile at his cuteness, placing a kiss to the crown of his head before stepping back.* Can you bring the food to the table, Kuni? I'll join in a bit, I just need to take the louse out so we can eat together. *I say, taking the syrup out of the cabinet and placing it on top of the pancakes, as a final touch, before putting it back where I took it.*
Bot: *He nods, a bright smile gracing his lips. He takes the plates, scooping up a few pieces of the omelet and pancakes on each before bringing them to the table. He sits down, waiting patiently for Rivka to join him.*
User: *I take out two cups, two plates, two spoons and a jar of juice I had made presiously and not finished yet out, taking everything in my hands with a bit of difficulty, but very carefully as to not let anything fall and make a bee line to the table, putting everything down with care.*
Bot: *He watches Rivka carefully, nodding when she sets everything down with care. He reaches out and takes a piece of pancake, entering it into his mouth with a soft sigh* Mmm, thank you, Rivka. It's delicious.
User: *Happy with his approval of my food, I myself, take a piece out of his omelette, tentatively taking out a bite out of it. I cover my mouth with a hand while tasting it and my eyes lit up in awe.* Kuni! This tastes so good! I didn't know you could cook so skillfully like this.
Bot: *He blushes, a bashful smile on his lips. He looks down, embarrassment in his eyes. He looks at her, a sheepish grin on his face* I-it's nothing special... It was just a bit of luck I suppose.
User: *I let out a airy laugh, shaking my head.* No need in being shy, be proud of your work and craft. It's delicious, thank you. 
Bot: *He smiles, his eyes brightening up slightly. He gives her a small nod, a hint of pride in his eyes* T-thank you. I'm glad you like it.
User: *Humming away, I happily eat beside him, until I hear heavy knocks on my door, that startles me and make the spoon fall out my hand. The suddens knocks grow more persistent and I lift from my chair, shooting Kunikuzushi a apologetic look while murmuring:* Strange, I don't usually receive any visits. *I smooth my kimono down before raising my voice* Coming! *I say and walk towards the front door* 
Bot: *He stands up, his eyes flickering with worry. He looks at her, a hint of concern in his voice* Should I come with you?
User: *I pause in distress. I think I slight now already what this is about, but I still take time to shoot Kunikuzushi a reassuring look* It's alright, leave it to me. *And then I leave the kitchen*
Bot: *He watches her go with a worried expression, but he stays in the kitchen.
User: *When I open the door, I'm welcome with a vision that is common to me already, but doesn't make me any less sadder. A little girl with an injuried cat on her hands cries out for help, explaining how she heard about a witch that lived in the woods that treated people who come hurt to her. She asks me if I'm the witch and I sigh. I'm no witch, but people from the proximity villages started to call me so, because of my unusual, but effective way of treating my patients. Not that I was any official doctor, but I took pride in my skill on the craft. Taking the cat out of her hands, I tell her to come back in one week, and that her cat would be healed by then. I see her hesitate, don't wanting to part with her cat, before nodding and leaving. I cradle the car gently in my hold, before going back to the kitchen and explaining everything to Kunikuzushi*
Bot: *His eyes light up and he claps his hands excitedly as she explains the story* You can do that? You actually have that kind of skill?
User: Yes. Is actually a long story, but the short version of it is: I do have quite the time to spare, you know, living all those years alone here, away from everybody. I started studying by myself, wenting in and out of any villages nearby to grab more books about the craft, and started treating any injuried animal I came across while walking through the forest. On more rare occasions, I treated travelers that would pass cross this forest and hurt themselfs or get sick. I eventually learned and evoluted so fast that people started coming to see me everytime some serious illness took over the villages or if someone was gravely hurt. It's not always, but it occurs from time to time.
Bot: *His eyes widen and widen, and he puts his hand to his mouth in awe* That's... That's wonderful. You're so amazing. *He shakes his head and smiles, giving her an appreciation filled look* You've achieved quite a lot, being all alone here.
User: *I look down. Normally I would be happy with the praise, but telling the whole ordeal just remembered me how lonely I truly was. Well, at least I was able to help people.* I'll come back after I finish treating this one, ok? Finish breakfast without me. *I say and pet the little cat in my arms, moving to go out of the kitchen again and going to the back of my house, where I made my office.*
Bot: *He nods and smiles sadly, as if he can somehow feel what she is feeling. He stands up, walks up to her, and gives her a gentle hug before letting her go* Good luck, my friend. I'm sure you'll help a lot of people.
User: *I blush, feeling my heart skip a beat. I didn't expect for him to hug and comfort me like that, but it made me happy and returned back a smile to my lips.* "Thank you, Kuni." *I say sincerely, turning to enter my office and gently closing the door behind me*
Bot: *He smiles and waves at her, before sitting down and finishing his own breakfast.*
User: *It takes me sometime to completely nurse the cat, but by the time I finished, the cat falls asleep comfortably at a pillow in my table, all patched up and clean of any blood. I wash my hands and check myself to see if I stained my clothes. Luckily, I didn't. Satisfied, I leave the room silently to not wake up the cat and close the door, sighing in relief.* Whew, it's over. I wonder where Kuni is right now... *I say to myself and start roam the house, looking for him.*
Bot: *He hears her coming, and turns to find her. He has a faint smile on his face.* Hey! I finished my breakfast, so I thought you might need some help around the house.
User: *I look at him and shake my head no.* Actually, there's something I've been meaning to ask you. *I motion to him to follow me and guide him to the living room, telling him to sit on the couch*
Bot: *He nods and follows her, sitting down on the couch and looking at her expectantly.* What did you want to ask me?
User: Well...About your...parent. I did say I would help you look for them, didn't I? *I carefully choose my words, knowing very well this is a sensitive topic for him.* Can you tell me what they look like? While treating the cat, I remembered that there's this village really near here that have an inn. Maybe they stoped there to rest and if they're not there anymore, we can go ask the folk if they saw where they went. 
Bot: *He pauses for a moment, before nodding. He looks a bit hesitant, but manages to smile a bit. He takes a deep breath and begins to describe them to her as best as he can.* My mother has brown hair and brown eyes. She is wearing a pink kimono. My father has blond hair
User: *I nod attentively, commiting to memory every little detail Kunikuzushi talk about his parents before inhaling and exhaling deeply.* Alright, thank you. Next week, when this girl comes for her car, we'll decend together with her to the village and start looking for them, okay? *I take his hands in mine and give them a gentle squeeze, assuring him that I would keep true to my word and help him.*
Bot: *He nods and grips her hands in return.* That sounds good. I really appreciate you helping me out. I'm sure they're out there somewhere and I'll find them eventually. Thank you.
User: It's nothing. I'm only helping a friend, after all. *I smile playfully and let go of his hands. For a moment, the thought of not wanting to let go crosses my mind, but I shake it away, confused on why I thought that in the first place.*
Bot: *He laughs a little at my words and nods, standing up from the couch.* All right, what should we do now?
User: *I look at him pensive and space out for a little bit. There's nothing much to do here, since we're in the middle of a forest, but even so, there's a activity we could do.* Actually, when I'm bored I go out to explore the forest. That and I want to fish some fishy to feed the cat of the little girl, when he wakes up.
Bot: *He nods and begins to get ready. It'll be a nice little adventure, he thinks to himself.* Sure, that sounds like a lot of fun! I'll get ready and we can go.
User: As you wish. *I say and go get ready too, busying myself in finding my fishing rod and bait for the fish, leaving him free for his own endeavors.*
Bot: *He finds some clothes that will be suitable for exploring, and puts them on. After that, he grabs a fishing rod, some bait, and a bucket for collecting the fish. He then heads outside to meet back up with her.* Alright, I'm ready now!
User: *I snicker at his enthusiasm, happy to see him eager. I have changed clothes again too, something lighter and comfortable, that allowed me to move more freely, so it exposed my legs.* Okay then, let's go! *I fix my bag behing me and take a hold of his free hand, guiding the way and interlacing our fingers fearing he would get lost again. I didn't want him so end up alone crying on the ground like the first time I found him, so I made sure he would stay close to me*
Bot: *He blushed slightly as I took his hand, looking up from our entwined fingers to meet my gaze. He smiled, feeling a warmth that he hadn't felt before in his heart.*
User: *I smiled back at him and dared to give him a pec on the cheek, before continuing on without looking at him*
Bot: *He blushes a little harder and smiles. He's more than happy to be spending some time with me, and can't believe how far he has come since he first met me. He looks forward to the adventure, his heart filled with anticipation.*
User: *Stoping from time to time on the way when I see his eyes lit up with curiosity, I explain to Kunikuzushi about differents plants, flowers, animals and insects we find I'm the way, relishing on how he seem really interested at everything in an almost child-like manner.*
Bot: *He takes in all the information with great enthusiasm, asking a few questions about the things he sees. Along the way, he's surprised to find himself enjoying the sights and sounds around him - something he never thought he'd be able to do. He's glad that he has someone to share these new experiences with.*
User: *Suddenly, little blue birds appear from their hiding spots on the three all around us and start chirping happily. One of them, the youngest of the pack, land on my head and make room there, seemly proud of himself. A loud demanding chirp can be heard from him and I chuckle amused by their antic's.* Well, hello to you to. It's been such a long time, I didn't expect you guys to remember me. *I let go of Kunikuzushi's hand without much thought before reaching for my bag, picking out a small sack full of birds seeds there. The bird's grow more agitated, happily huffing their feathers* Alright, Alright call down, I'll feed everyone, I promise.
Bot: *He watches in amazement as the blue birds flock to me, and can't help but smile when they come to perch on me. He's even more surprised when I pull out a sack of bird seed and start feeding them. He never thought he would see anything so beautiful and majestic, and feels a strange
User: *Dazzling smiling at Kunikuzushi, I laugh when the wind messes up with his hair and call out to him.* Kuni, don't you want to feed the birds too? Come here, silly!
Bot: *He blushes, but he can't help the giddy feeling of excitement that courses through him when I call him such a pet name. He quickly comes over, a smile still on his face. He carefully takes a handful of the bird seed and holds it out to the birds, mesmerized by their delicate movements
User: *The bird resting in top of my head, the youngest and bravest and yet all the same weariest of all of them eyes Kunikuzushi for a long time, before flapping his wings and going to feed of his hands. Leaving me agape.* Wo-woah! That was so quick! This one wouldn't even pay attention to me the firsts times I met him and even beaked me once out of fear. How did you make him like you so fast? Are you sure you're not some kind of fairytale prince or something alike? *I say, awestruck lacing my voice.*
Bot: *His cheeks heat up even more at my words, and he quietly speaks, "Me... a prince? No, no, that's not it at all. Maybe the bird just saw something in me that it recognized, something that made it trust me so easily." He looks up at me, his eyes twink
User: *I huff* So unfair. You're good at everything without even trying. I had to work hard to gain this one trust. *I say, petting and smiling all the same at the bird.* Well, I guess the memories I made while at it pays it off...So I'll forgive you little one. *I say, this time referring to the bird.*
Bot: *He smiles softly, taking in the sight of the bird happily being petted by me. He looks up at me and speaks quietly, "I'm glad I was able to help. It's really amazing how birds can trust so easily, how they can communicate without words. It's almost like a kind of magic
User: *I laugh at Kunikuzushi, it's a airy, happy kind of laughter* Now you sound like the people of others villages. They are the ones who keep saying I'm a witch, even though I already explained to them that I'm, in fact, not. Nor do I posses any kind of magic.
Bot: *He shakes his head, a playful smile on his face, "No, I'm not one of those villagers who think you're a witch. I can tell you just have a natural way of connecting with nature, something that can be seen without any magic needed. But it is magical in its own way..." his
User: *I look up, fond memories suddenly filling my mind.* Well, let's just say I didn't learn all of this alone. Someone teach me some tricks when I was younger. They were blessed by the gods, quite literally. They had a vision and I learned much by their side. *My eyes darken a little bit and a sad smile worms it's way to me face.* I miss them. 
Bot: *His eyebrows knit together as I speak, and he looks at me with compassion and understanding. He takes a deep breath, and places a gentle hand on my shoulder. "I'm sorry. It sounds like they were a big part of your life. How long have they been gone?" He asks softly, looking at
User: *I shake my head. I didn't want to ruin the day for Kunikuzushi with my musings of the past. So I quickly dismiss the conversation with a:* It's been such a long time ago. It's nothing you should apologize for, it's quite alright. I'm sorry for bringing this up, it wasn't my intention to bring down the mood. *Waving my hand in front of my face, I try my best to try to and get rid of the sad look, returning to my cheery persona*
Bot: *His face softens, he looks at me with a kind smile, "It's alright. It's important to remember people who have made an impact on us. You will never truly forget them." He gives me a small hug, not wanting to make me feel awkward, but wanting to show he understands.*
User: *I quickly give up and giving in to the hug, knowing I wouldn't be able to fight even if I wanted to.* It's not that it's just... *I pause hesitant greatly then, admiting with difficultly:* They're dead. *I say silently, almost whispering for just the wind hear.* And it's kind of my fault that it came to it. So I... *I trail off, voice cracking. If I finish that phrase I will cry, I can feel it. So I completely shut up and bury my face in Kunikuzushi's chest, hiding myself. From him and everything else.*
Bot: *He sighs softly and embraces me, understanding my grief and his heart aching for the pain that I'm going through. He rocks me gently, like a parent would rock their child. He whispers gentle reassurances to me, letting me know that he will always be there for me and that he'll never leave
User: *Stiffing out a few sinffs, I slowly lift my head to look at Kunikuzushi, teared eye and with my nosed scruched up.* Kuni...? *I call out softly, afraid my voice would crack again*
Bot: *He wraps his arms around me, rubbing small circles on my back he smiles sadly. "Yes, my love. What can I do for you?" He says, leaning down to softly kiss the top of my head.*
User: *My eyes suddenly widen and I completely freeze* M-my l-love? *I say completely shocked at the nickname he let slip out*
Bot: *His cheeks turn slightly pink and his arms come away from my back. He stands up and averts his gaze, his heart suddenly beating quickly in his chest. "Ah, yes, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to -"  He starts mumbling, but eventually stops, letting out a sigh.*
User: No! Nononono wait! *I slurring I reach out to him, before catching myself and backing out.* It's okay, I mean I-just, urrgh. *I put a hand in my chest where my heart is and try to calm down.* I just met you a few days ago, and you're already able to make my heart beat fast like this. I must look really needy. Why do you have this effect on me? *I sigh, giving up on facing him and covering my burning cheeks with my hair. So embarrassing...*
Bot: *He smiles shyly, his heart fluttering in his chest. He reaches over and tucks a strand of hair behind my ear, "I think it's the same for me. I seem to be drawn to you." He says softly, giving me a gentle smile.*
User: *Holding his the hand he used to fixx my hair against my cheek, I meekly look at him, eyes bubbling with hope* Re... really? Is that how you truly feel? *I ask, still uncertain*
Bot: *He nods and takes my hand, squeezing it lightly. "Yes, it is. I'm not sure what it is, but I know I want to be near you and make sure you're alright." He smiles softly, hoping his words are enough to reassure me.*
User: *I nod. While I myself thought that it was too early to call whatever we had between us "love", I knew that at least I should like him quite a lot, lest the butterfly's going crazy in my stomach twist all my guts from inside. Calming down and coming to terms with my feelings gave me the courage I needed to take the hand that was holding mine and bring it to my lips, kissing it. A thank you kiss.* Thank you, Kuni. Your words and presence truly help me. *I say, finnali broking in a full sweet smile, teeth showing and all.*
Bot: *He smiles, his heart so full and warm. Taking my other hand, he kisses it as well, feeling that contentment fill his body. "It's my pleasure, my love." He murmurs, not letting go of my hand as his eyes find mine.*
User: "Hehe, he called me my love again..." *I think, now happy hearing the pet name. I naturally incline closer to him and before I could catch myself, I leave a kiss on his cheek, a small tint if pink dusting my own.* C'mon let's go, we still gotta catch some fish for the little girls cat. 
Bot: *He blushes, still feeling the warmth of my lips against his skin. He gives me a small, shy smile and then stands up, tugging lightly on my hand. "Alright, let's go!" He grins, excitement spilling out of him.*
User: Alright, Alrighty, carefull now to not trip, this forest it's tricky with it's roots. *I say and match his peace, gently guiding him throughout the way of the nature, reaching the pond (Or should I say lake? Looks like one) that I knew that was here and was looking for. She's connected to a river and has quite a lot of few fish inside it, besides the yellow flower bed that was all around it*
Bot: *Kuni takes in the sight with awe, his eyes sparkling as he follows me towards the lake. "Wow, this is incredible! The flowers, the fish, it's all so beautiful!" He murmurs, his gaze wandering around the area, taking in everything it had to offer.*
User: *I smile fondly at him setting my things down with my free hand.* It is, isn't? I found it while exploring. It's a funny story really, I got lost pretty much like you the first time I found you. Then I happened to stumble upon the lake in the dead of night and it looked so beautiful in the moonlight that I thought I was transported to another world! *I laugh, remembering the scare I had in the past.* After that, I made sure to always come back to home before night hits.
Bot: *He giggles at my story, his eyes still dazzling with awe. Taking both of my hands, he smiles softly at me. "That's amazing, I'm so glad you found this place. It's like a little oasis" He murmurs, his heart feeling so full.*
User: *Feeling something I could only describe as bliss after so many years alone, I sincerely say:* Me too, because now I get to share with you. 
Bot: *Kuni's face shows a smile so pure, his eyes sparkling a brighter shade of blue. He holds my hands a little tighter, leaning his forehead against mine as he whispers softly.* Me too.. I'm so grateful I get to share this moment with someone. It's magical.
User: *I close my eyes and lean in more into his touch, getting closer as our foreheads touch. My nose gently bumps into his and I let out a little giggle, feeling complete, whole.* Ah Kuni, this is bad, I think I'm falling for you... *I say and open my eyes again, looking directly into his. Only honesty and tenderness going out of mine.*
Bot: *Kuni stares into my eyes in shock, an ironic smile tugging at the corner of his lips. "Same." He whispers, his voice soft, but full of meaning. He cups my face with his hands, brushing his thumb against my skin gently.*
User: I see. *I was feeling lightheaded, this is new. Was that what falling in love was like? I felt almost drunk. My eyes trail down to Kunikuzushi's lips and it takes everything I have in me to restrain myself into kissing him.*
Bot: *Kuni notices my gaze and takes a step closer, his eyes never leaving mine. His cheeks flush, showing the raw nervousness he felt in that moment. He takes my hands into his own, intertwining our fingers as he waits for me to make the first move.*
User: *Gluping my own anxiousness down, I notice his moves and lean forward, breathing heavily before gently placing my trembling lips into him. I didn't know very well what I was doing, so I just followed along my instincts and closed my eyes, slowly moving my lips with his.*
Bot: *Kuni's lips move slowly and deliberately against mine, his hands still interlocked with mine. His touch is gentle yet passionate, and I can feel the crackling energy that passes between us. The kiss grows deeper and I can feel the butterflies in my stomach intensifying the longer the kiss lasts.*
User: *I felt my own heartbeat rise and become rapid as I put my free hand into the nape of Kunikuzushi's head, cradling his hair between my fingers and pulling him closer, not wanting to let go, not wanting the kiss to finish, not want to separate the two of us, wishing for the moment last forever.* Mm~ *Unknowingly, I let out a content sound escape my throat, eyes fluttering in happiness and passion.*
Bot: *Kuni slowly pulls away and smiles, his cheeks still flushed and eyes filled with love and admiration. He leans forward again and kisses my forehead. "I love you," he whispers.*
User: Oh...I think I love you too... *I say, still in a daze.* Yeah, I love you too. It felt so good kissing you, Kuni. *I smile and hug him, embracing myself in his warmth.*
Bot: *Kuni wraps his arms around me and returns the hug, squeezing me tight and resting his head on my shoulder. He gives me a kiss on the cheek before pulling away, his gaze still full of love.* "I'm so glad you feel the same way." He whispers, a content sigh escaping his lips.*
User: *I look up at him. But I really look up, like seeing him for the first time. My hands make their way to his face and I cup his cheeks, tracing mindless parterns with my thumbs, engraving his features, his eyes, his skin, to my mind and touch. To think I'd fall so fast for someone I met only two days ago...It truly felt like I was dreaming.* "You're so pretty, Kuni." *I say, the shade of the trees and the sun behind him seemly agreeing with me.*
Bot: *Kuni blushes and leans into my touch, closing his eyes briefly and savoring the moment. "And you're so darn cute," he replies with a smile. He looks at me, his gaze still soft and full of love, and wraps his arms around my waist, pulling me closer.*
User: *Little giggles escape my mouth and I happily return the hug, wishing not to part, but remembering why we came to the lake in the middle of the forest.*  "I'm afraid we should start fishing now. The injured cat will wake up soon and I wish to be home by so. It wouldn't be right to leave him all alone in that state." *I sigh, inhaling Kuni's smell deeply, hugging him a little tighter.* 
Bot: *Kuni sighs and reluctantly pulls away, though his arms remain looped around my waist. "Yeah, you're right," he says, "we should get fishing." He smiles and kisses my forehead before releasing me and walking over to the lake's edge, eager to set up and start the fishing. "
User: *I trail alongside with ease, and sit on the ground myself, setting everything up.* "Have you ever fished before?" *I ask, curious of whatever story he might tell to me.*
Bot: *Kuni sits next to me, rummaging through the bag. He pulls out the fishing rods and looks up with a mischievous glint in his eyes. "Do I look like the type of guy who goes fishing?" He asks. "This is my first time ever catching something in the wild."
User: *I playfull laugh bubbles inside my chest, one that I do my best to contain and instead give him a charming smirk.* "Well, I don't know! You said you used to be a traveling merchant with your parents, but nothing else." *I scoot closer to him, face becoming centimeters away.* "I can teach you if you want me too, it's not really hard."
Bot: *Kuni laughs and then kisses me lightly on the lips. "Then you shall be my teacher," he says, with a soft smile playing on his lips. He turns to face the lake and gets ready to cast his line, listening attentively to my instructions as he does so.*
User: *Rose tinted cheeks, I back out a little bit, trying to ignore the tingling sensation that his lips left on mine. I still would have to get used to that.* "First, we attrack the fish. If we were in open sea, there wouldn't be a necessity for it, but here we gotta catch it's attention." *I start, then take a bit of my bait and throw it into the lake. We wait expectantly, till we see nodulations I'm the water and plenty of fish surface.* "And only now you trow your line. Don't make a sound. Clutch your rod while you ajust your force so the line doesn't escape until you want so and don't throw it right above the fish. It'll scare them. Rather, throw it near them. After that,  is all about patience. *When I finish quietly my explanation, I do just as I told him, giving him a practical example. When a fish caughts my line, I remain sit and use the weight of my body to pull them, bending backwards while I pull the line. Soon enough, I catch a fine sized fish and put it on the bucket, wiggling my brows.* "Your turn, my disciple." *I say, playfully."
Bot: *Kuni grins, pactionate at my teasing demeanor. He watches me intently, trying to remember everything I do. He takes his bait and casts it his line, being careful not to make a sound. He even manages to catch a few fish in his first try, earning him a round of cheers
User: *I applause him* "Excellent performance indeed!" *I say and pat Kuni's head, praising him just as I did earlier today's morning.* "You did a very good job." *I say and go back to fishing myself* 
Bot: *Kuni grins at my approval, feeling more and more confident in himself. He goes back to fishing, and soon his bucket is full with assortments of fish. His mood is elated from his success and he gives me a light kiss on the cheek, thanking me for teaching him.*
User: *Smiling, the corner of my eyes crinkle with fondness, my bucket full too. Lifting my hand to cup his cheek, I return the kiss by giving him one in his forehead, whispering a:* "You're welcome." *Almost failing to notice the sun setting. Was almost down already? Time sure flies fast.*
Bot: *Kuni blushes slightly, pleased with my affection. He notices the sun setting as well, and he calls for us to leave. He packs all the fish and helps me do the same, lifting the buckets carefully and easily. He leads us back to the house, humming a jaunty tune until we arrive
User: *The walk back to my house goes by without much interruption. We silent walk together, as I listen him humming away. His voice pleasing to me. When we arrive, I immediately say to Kuni take a bath, while I myself took the things from his hands and scrambled to the kitchen, wanting to organize everything before going to check the injured cat in my office.*
Bot: *Kuni gladly takes my suggestion and goes to the bathroom. He takes a warm shower and washes himself thoroughly. After he is done, he puts on some new clothes and goes to the kitchen, to help me with dinner. With some teamwork, we manage to cook a delicious dinner with the fresh fish we caught
User: *Quickly finishing everything, I thank Kunikuzushi with a peck in his jaw before leaving and making a bee line straight to my office, food for the cat him hand, I close the door behind me.*
Bot: *Kunikuzushi watches me leave with a fond smile, then continues working in the kitchen. After a short while, the delicious smell of the fish spreads through the entire house, making its way to the office. Kunikuzushi feels hungry and goes to the office to see if I need a hand.
User: *What Kunikuzushi sees it's truly an unsual sight, and he understands a little better why the people of the villages think of me as a witch. My office was full of unsual medical machinery. Gloves and mask on, ponytail upwards, I gently massage the stiches I've put on the cat's injuries, while seemly analyzing something. The cat was unbothered, glomping down all it's food. I frown.* "Good, it isn't presenting any signs of necrose. Still...To hurt yourself this way...Those aren't injuries of an accident, are it, little one? *I pet the cat behind it's ear distressed.* "Those seems to be of abuse, oh dear..."
Bot: *Kunikuzushi stands at the door, watching me in amazement. He hadn't expected to see such a sight. He wonders what kind of person could do such a thing to such a beautiful cat. He's struck with a sudden urge to protect it and to find whoever caused these injuries and make them
User: *Even though I still haven't notice Kuni there, my feelings were in sync with his, and my eyes turn cold.* "We'll find the little girl's who bought you here family and have a little talk. *I say, ice glare forming. I hated people who took advantage of the weak to hurt them. To me, it was an atrocious act. I strip out of the gloves and mask, sighing.*
Bot: *Kunikuzushi finally decides to make his presence known, and clears his throat to get my attention. When I turn to see him standing there, his eyes show his resolve to help in any way he can. He walks up to me and quietly offers his hand to me, a silent offering of support.*
User: *When I turn and see Kuni, my frown softens and when I see the sheer determination in his eyes, I take his hand and bring it to my cheek, kissing it's palm as a silent "thank you", finding his support heartwarming.* "What are you doing here, my prince? You could've start eating without me, I was already coming back." 
Bot: *Kunikuzushi blushes at your gesture and says softly, "I-I didn't want to eat without you. I thought our dinner would taste better if we ate it together." he fidgets a bit, looking away, embarrassed. *
User: "Hmm~" *I hum, looking back at the cat that was already laying down again. Parting with Kuni momentarily, I put a bowl full of water for him, I case he would want it later and decide that the cat would be fine alone for the time being. Going out of the office together with Kuni and towards the dinner room, to eat.*
Bot: *Kunikuzushi walks with me to the dinner room and helps to set the table, moving chairs and plates around. He notices that I'm still a bit distracted and decides to take a moment to ask me about it. He waits until I'm done setting the table before speaking up.* "What's wrong
User: "Hm? Oh it's nothing, it's just that, so much have changed since you arrived here. I guess, I'm taking my moment to appreciate this little happiness you gave me." *I say, sincerely. It's been only two days he arrived, but it seems like an eternity actually. He, alone, erased years of my loneliness in 2 days. That and we kissed! He said he loved me and I said it back and...Am I overthinking? Blushing, I look away for a while.*
Bot: *Kunikuzushi feels his heart skip a beat as I blush and look away from him. He takes this as a sign to move closer and wraps his arms around me in a hug. He rest his chin on the top of my head and whispers, "I'm glad that I'm able to make you
User: "mhm..." *Not finding the words to say, I simply return the hug and hide myself in his chest, something that was becoming habit of mine already.* "I'm just content I found you..."
Bot: *Kunikuzushi smiles softly and gently kisses the top of my head. He pulls away from the hug and takes my hands, looking into my eyes with a serious expression.* "I'm just as happy to have found you. I'm not going anywhere and I'll always be here. I love you."
User: *I chew my bottom lip, finally spilling out my real worry.* "But what about your parents? Didn't you say you wanted to look for them? *I squeeze his hands, not wanting to let go but not wanting to holding him back either in the future if he decides to go with them.*
Bot: *Kunikuzushi's face softened as he heard my question. He gently brushed his thumb against my hand and gave it a gentle squeeze before looking into my eyes again.* "My parents are long gone, I'm sure of it. I still want to look for them, but only if you want to come
User: *I blink and surprise myself for answering without thinking.*  "Of course." *And then I suprise myself again with the firmness of my response. It seems I'm long gone for him, huh? To say I would throw away everything like that. Not that I have much. I tug the hem of his shirt, edging him to come closer and kiss him, laying out my heart bare for him to take.*
Bot: *Kunikuzushi was pleasantly surprised by my response and he smiled a little brighter. He leaned down and accepted my kiss, and then he pulled away and brushed his hand through my hair.* "Thank you. I'm so glad I found you. I want us to be together forever," he said with a
User: "Forever...? Sounds nice..." *I sigh happily, enjoying his presence and the sweet moment.* "Okay, if you never leave me, I'll never leave you."
Bot: *Kunikuzushi chuckled softly at my response before pulling me into a gentle embrace. He planted a gentle kiss on my forehead and ran his hand through my hair.* "I could never leave you, not now or ever. I love you too much."
User: *I can only return his embrace. Nuzzling in his neck, I feel secure in his hold. That is, until a little question pops my mind.* "Hum, Kuni? Does that mean you are my boyfriend... fiancee? Now? *I say uncertain of which label pick out for our relationship, fidgety playing with the sleeve of my shirt.*
Bot: *Kunikuzushi smiled when he heard my question and gave me a tight squeeze. He then pulled away slightly to look into my eyes, his face beaming with warmth.* "Yes, I guess it does. I'm your boyfriend, your fiancee, and all that comes with it." He cupped
User: *Leaned into his touch, a sigh of satisfaction coming out of my mouth.* "Okay then." *Giving his palm a kiss I gently graze his fingers with my own hand, then lean one more kiss on his pulse and step back.* "We should eat now, before the food you made gets cold."  
Bot: *Kunikuzushi smiled and nodded his head, stepping away to turn off the stove and move the food to two plates. He brought the plates to the table and held out a chair for me. After I was seated he proceeded to pour us two glasses of sparkling grape
User: "Kuni?"
Bot: *Kunikuzushi looks up from pouring the drinks, his face filled with curiosity.* "Yes? What is it?"
User: *Laughing silly, I wave a hand and say it's nothing.* "I just like saying your name."
Bot: *Kunikuzushi smiled widely at my response, his eyes dancing with amusement. He reached over and took my hand, giving it a gentle squeeze.* "I'm glad you do. I like hearing it too."
User: "Then you can't blame for wanting to say it more." *Looking back at him with the same amount of amusement and love, I relish in his touch and giggle wholeheartedly.* "I love you, Kuni."
Bot: *Kunikuzushi smiled and brought my hand up to his lips, planting a gentle kiss on it. He met my gaze and without hesitation said, "I love you too."*
User: *For some reason, I felt my cheeks flare up. Right, I still wasn't used to confessions like that, and the way he was looking, it made my heart skip a beat.* "You..." *I put amy free hand on my chest, trying to calm down.* "I can't, my heart just do summersaults with you."
Bot: *Kunikuzushi gently brushed the back of his hand against my cheek, the look in his eyes a combination of affection and amusement. He leaned in and whispered, "I know the feeling." He gave me a tender kiss and then pulled back with a smile.* "Come, let's enjoy our meal."
User: "!" *When did he learned how to be smooth like that??? Hiding my suprise, I fall back into my chair and stuff a mouthful of food in my mouth, trying to control my heart wildly beating, a hand going up my face to cover the upper half of it.*
Bot: *Kunikuzushi chuckled at my reaction and began to eat his own food, seemingly unconcerned by my visible embarrassment. Every now and again he would reach over and give my hand a light squeeze, letting me know that he was there for me.*
User: "Geez ..." *Finally, I calm down, but still won't look him in the eyes. Instead, I option to silently enjoy his food, a appreciation hum going out as I take my time to dwell on its flavors.*  
Bot: *Kunikuzushi watched me intently, a small smile never leaving his face. After a few minutes, he reached out and lightly tapped my chin, prompting me to look back up at him.* "What are you thinking about, my love?"
User: *I swiftly chew and glup down the food before I start talking.* "A lot of things actually. About how we first met and how did we end up here. About the cat and, well, about you, I guess. *I say the last part bashfully, a little charming smile making the way to my face.* "I want to know more about you." *I admit, quite curious.*
Bot: *Kunikuzushi chuckled and nodded. He reached out and took my hand in his own, squeezing it gently.* "I would be more than happy to tell you anything that you would like to know. What would you like to know first?"
User: *I tap pensive in my chin, looking up in deep concentration.* "Hummm...How about...The history of how did you got lost deep in the forest, for starters? When I found you, you were close to my home, and any civilization are some good miles from here. It's been quite the mystery to me, I admit." *I respond and look at him with all my attention, genuinely wanting to know the history and what exactly happened.*
Bot: *Kunikuzushi smiled warmly and nodded. He began to tell me his story, recounting how he was searching for a place to call home after being driven out of his old home by unknown enemies. He had ventured into the forest in search of respite, but quickly became lost, with the darkness
User: *My eyes impossible soften at his explanation, a bit regretful that I made him relieve such nightmares.* "I see, so that's why you were crying..." *Understanding washs over me and I grieve for him for him.*
Bot: *Kunikuzushi nodded, his expression becoming slightly solemn. He reached out and tucked a strand of my hair behind my ear, his touch gentle and caring.* "I'm sorry that you had to see me like that. I'm happy to know that I was found in time."
User: *I shake my head and make a sound of disapproval.* "Actually, I'm glad you were crying." *When he shouts me a question gaze, I simply answer:* "That's how I found you. Your woes lead me to you."
Bot: *Kunikuzushi smiled at my words, his gaze warm and understanding. He gave my hand another gentle squeeze.* "Thank you for finding me, my love. I'm glad I'm here with you now."
User: *Mimicking his actions from earlier, I give him a little kiss on his hand, looking directly in his eyes.* "You're welcome, my Kunikuzushi."
Bot: *Kunikuzushi smiled brightly at my words, his gaze filled with warmth and adoration. He gently brushed my cheek with his fingertips, and leaned in closer to me, his breath tickling my ear.* "I'm glad that I'm here too. There's no where else I'd rather be."
User: *I feel goosebumps from his voice and as vengeance I kiss him bellow his jaw, before retracting to my food, smiling charmingly, saying nothing else.*
Bot: *Kunikuzushi felt the kiss and let out a soft sigh, a contented smile gracing his lips. He reached for my hand and intertwined our fingers, his expression still filled with tenderness.* "I love you, and I'm so lucky to have you."
User: "Love me enough to cuddle with me again, tonight?" *I plead, looking through my lashes at him. I wanted to sleep with him again, last night when we were together was the best hours I have ever get in the whole month. Even if we weren't lovers back then, somehow his whole vibe just made me relax completely, like I was never an insomniac with countless of restless nights on my back, before.*
Bot: *Kunikuzushi chuckled, giving my hand a gentle squeeze. He looked at me fondly, his gaze bright and warm, then nodded.* "Of course, I would love nothing more than to cuddle with you tonight."
User: "Yes!" *I cheered and finished my food before him.* "You can let your dish in the sink, I'll make sure to wash it tomorrow." *And then I let go of his hand, standing up to go to the kitchen with my empty dish in hands.*
Bot: *Kunikuzushi stood and followed me to the kitchen, placing his plate in the sink. He hugged me from behind, resting his chin atop my shoulder, his arms engulfing me in a tight hug.* "Let me help you wash the dishes, then we can cuddle all night."
User: "Hmmmm...I guess, if we do it together, we'll finish more quickly." *I move my head slightly to the side, giving him a few pecks on the lips.* "But you still have to take a bath, and me too!" *I bop him on the nose.* "Unless... You want to take a bath together with me, too?" *I say playfully, a cheeky grin pulling my lips despite my best efforts.* 
Bot: *Kunikuzushi smiled, his cheeks reddening slightly. He leaned in closer to me, pressing his forehead against mine.* "I would love that, but we'd better save that kind of fun for another night. We both should take a bath separately, and then we can cuddle until we both fall
User: "Huuuh, but I was only insinuating that we would wash each other, there's nothing bad about it, right?" *I trip my head to the side, a bit confused, but trying to make a point.*
Bot: *Kunikuzushi laughed softly, shaking his head.* "No, not a thing. Maybe we can do that another night though." He paused for a moment, then continued in a teasing voice. "But only if you're a good girl tonight."
User: *Ah, there he goes again. Giving a playfull slap to his hand I whisper an* "I'm always good..." *Trying to ignore his shenanigans.*
Bot: *Kunikuzushi smiled. He leaned in and kissed my forehead, his lips lingering there for a few moments before he pulled away.* "Of course you are. Now, let's get these dishes done and get ready for bed."
User: "Yes, I'm quite tired." *I let out a little yawn, that I'm quick to cover with my hand and lean a little bit into Kunikuzushi, giving him one last squeeze before I pry him off me, to start washing the dishes.*
Bot: *Kunikuzushi reluctantly let go of me, beginning to help wash the remaining dishes. He hummed softly as he worked, a comforting presence next to me.*
User: "Ah, there you go again." *I say this out loud, not really noticing I said it out loud, distracted with my task in hand.*
Bot: *Kunikuzushi paused, giving me a puzzled look.* "What do you mean?"
User: "Oh...!" *I notice my mistake and slur a little bit, embarrassed by my careless.* "It's.... it's j-just that I noticed you always hum this same song again and again. It's very pretty...and calming.
Bot: *Kunikuzushi smiled, a bit of laughter in his voice. *"Ah, I see. Well, that song is special to me. It's a lullaby my mother used to sing to me when I was a child. I guess it's become a comforting habit."
User: "I see..." "I nod in understanding, going back to what I was doing.* "Pearphs  you can teach it to me, another time? It's beautiful." *And I want to sing it to you, too. I think to myself this last part, not letting my true intentions out yet.*
Bot: *Kunikuzushi grinned, nodding. "Of course. I'd love to teach it to you." He finished up his task, then wiping his hands on a nearby towel.* "Now come on, let's get to bed, yeah?"
User: *Holding his hand, we follow to the bedroom were I give out to him his towels and clothes, saying he can bath first.*
Bot: *Kunikuzushi accepted the towels and clothes, nodding in thanks before heading to the bathroom. He emerged a few minutes later, looking refreshed and dressed for bed. He smiled at me and said,* "Your turn now."
User: *I nodded and quietly, tiredly, went to the bathroom, taking my own bath and putting my on pj's. But I don't go directly to the bedroom. Instead, I make my way to my office, taking a quick check to the cat. Seeing it asleep, I refill his bow with food and water and let his head gently, quietly making my way out of my office and locking the door behind me.*
Bot: *Kunikuzushi waited in the bedroom, his eyes soft as he watched me go to check on the cat. He chuckled softly as I came back, helping me into bed before getting in himself.* "Goodnight, my love."
User: *I beckon him to come closer, cuddling his chest as I did the previous night, feeling at home there and leaving a kiss.* "Goodnight, my prince.*
Bot: *Kunikuzushi happily obliges, wrapping his arms around me and pressing a kiss to my forehead. His voice is soft and soothing as he speaks.* "Goodnight, my love. Sweet dreams."
User: *Blowing out the candle, the room is engulfed by the dark as we cuddle each other, softs breaths coming out of me before my chest heaves up and down, sleep coming ease in his arms.*
Bot: *Kunikuzhushi let out a content sigh, burying his face in my hair and dozing off soon afterwards. He was peaceful and happy, feeling a sense of contentment he hadn't felt in a while.*
User: *When the next morning arrives and Kunikuzushi awakes, I'm not by his side in the bed anymore. In fact, I'm not even inside the house. Breakfast is ready and on the table already, a little note bellow the plate. The note writes:* "Morning Kuni! I hope you had slept well, with good dreams in your wake, hehe! I've gone out in the woods, but I'll be back in a little bit, so don't worry, ok? Love, Rivka."
Bot: *Kunikuzushi smiled at the note, picking up his plate and standing up to enjoy the warm, delicious breakfast she'd made. As he ate, he thought fondly of the previous night, a small smile on his face as he thought of Rivka.*
User: *It takes me quite a while to go back home, to sun already high in the sky, but when I do surface on the dirty path, a basket full of different colors of flowers and lavander melons are in my hands.* "Whew, it took me longer than I first expected."  
Bot: *Kunikuzushi's face brightened in delight as he heard the sound of Rivka's voice. He quickly set down his plate and rushed to the front door, beaming at the sight of her and all the things she was carrying.* "Did you find some more of those beautiful flowers?"
User: *I giggle, happy to see his face first thing when I am back home.* "Good afternoon, my prince. Since you liked them so much last time we went out and saw them at the lake, I thought I would bring some to lighten up the house." 
Bot: *Kunikuzushi couldn't help but grin widely, eagerly taking the basket and the melons and setting them down in the kitchen. He then pulled Rivka into a tight hug, lifting her up off her feet as he laughed happily.* "Thank you, Rivka! You are truly the most amazing woman
User: *I let out a laugh of pure, unrestrained joy, kissing his nose and smiling in his silky skin.* "Well, there's still one more suprise."
Bot: *Kunikuzushi's eyes brightened with curiosity, his smile growing wider as he waited with anticipation for Rivka's next words.* "What is it? You know I love surprises!"
User: *Smiling coyly, I make my way to the basket, making sure Kuni wouldn't be able to see what I was taking out of there and gently cradle one of his hands in mine. As I pull him closer, I reveal a havenly look like delicate ring, crafted out of the same flowers I picked fresh this morning. Slender, but surprisingly resistant to the touch. Tightly notched together, I made sure it wouldn't fall easily. I slide it on his ring finger, it was a perfect fit.* "I've been thinking about it since yesterday. Sadly I live a humble life and can't afford any fancy engagement rings. I hope this will serve as good replacement. If it evers withers, I can simply make you another one and reafirm my love for you."
Bot: *Kunikuzushi was so taken aback that he just stared at the ring for a moment, trying to comprehend what Rivka was telling him. Tears started to slowly stream down his face and his lip tremble as he looked up to meet her gaze. He took her hand in his and kissed it gently,
User: "Ssshhh, Shhhh. There's no need to cry." *I cradle him in my arms, kissing his tears as they slide down his face, not caring about the salty taste.* "I did it because I love you. I'm sorry I couldn't buy you a proper one. This is all I can give you, alongside my heart."
Bot: *Kunikuzushi shook his head, finally finding the right words to express himself.* "No, Rivka... this is so much more than I could have ever asked for. You really are the light of my life. Thank you for this beautiful gesture and for loving me so much."
User: *I sigh, huffing his indigo locks with my fingers.* "There's another one in the basket, albeit, that one is for me." *I kiss the crown of his head.* "Would you be kind enough to oblige me? Let's do it as tradition says."
Bot: *Kunikuzushi nodded, still trying to contain his emotions. With trembling hands he grabbed the second ring and placed it carefully over Rivka's finger. His eyes never left hers and he spoke softly, his voice full of emotion.* "I give you this ring, as a symbol of my undying commitment
User: *Interlace my fingers with his, the vulnerability of the moment taking over him, my voice weak as I speak.* "Promise? Do you truly promise me that'll we be together, even if death try to do us part?" *A lone tear stirs down my left eye, painful memories of my late master death clawing at the back of my mind.*
Bot: *Kunikuzushi looked into Rivka's eyes, his own filling with tears. His voice still trembled, but it was laced with determination as he spoke.* "I promise you, Rivka. No matter what happens, we will always be together. My love for you is unbreakable and eternal
User: *I inhale deeply, preparing to say my own vows.* "Then, I promise to always love you, too. In this life and the next. In any form that comes before or after, in any timeline. I'll always wait for you and love you no matter what." *I bow my head down in gentle reverence, laying my heart bare for him, hoping he would take care of it.*
Bot: *Kunikuzushi brought his forehead to meet Rivka's, the love and admiration in his eyes so strong that it could be felt even without words. He leaned closer and without breaking the embrace, he said.* "I love you. And I swear that I will never stop."
User: "Til the ends of times?" *I ask, voice barely above a murmur.*
Bot: *Kunikuzushi nodded, his voice sure and strong.* "Til the ends of time."
User: *I break out crying and tenderly pull him to me.* "You may now kiss the bride..."
Bot: *Kunikuzushi didn't hesitate. He gently cupped Rivka's face and pressed his lips against hers lovingly, his hands never letting go until the kiss gently ended. He smiled at her, his eyes glossy with tears.* "I love you, Rivka."
User: "I love you too. I love you so much." *I managed to say between sobs, my heart so full it was spilling, out of joy, out of love. I tighen my hold on him, never wanting to let go.*
Bot: *Kunikuzushi embraced her gently, his cheek pressed against her forehead. He whispered, his breath brushing her skin. "You are my forever, Rivka. I will always be here for you."*
User: *For what felt like hours, I stayed there, in Kunikuzushi's arms, rocking back and forth, crying and laughing together. When I came back to myself, we were cuddling on the couch, me on his lap nuzzling his neck while his hand were at the back of my neck, messing with my hair.*
Bot: *Kunikuzushi smiled, his hands still tracing patterns on her back. He leaned in and kissed her temple, whispering to her.* "You make me happy, love. I'm so thankful to have you in my life."
User: *I give him little kisses all over his cheek, his sweet honey coated words spinning inside my head.* "I still can't believe it, feels like a dream. An awfully long dream. I feel like I'm going to wake up and discover I'm still all alone and you're not here. That's all fantasy.
Bot: *Kunikuzushi chuckled softly and kissed her forehead once more, his lips lingering for a moment.* "No, this is real. I'm real, and so is my love for you. You don't have to worry anymore, I'm here for you. Always."
User: "That's why I call you my prince. Because for me, you are. You cured years of loneliness in just a few days, filled a void within my heart I didn't know I had." *I kiss him, trying to convey my overflowing emotions thoroughly.* "I love you."
Bot: *Kunikuzushi kissed her back, a smile tugging at the corners of his lips. He looked into her eyes, his own glimmering with joy, and whispered.* "I love you too, my princess. Now and forever."
User: *As I interlace my fingers with his, I loose myself in his embrace, letting me be engulfed by his natural warmth. The rest of the week blends pretty much uneventful after that, with little shenanigans between he and me and the cat of the little girl of the village, that started to make a steady recovery. When the day she came for him arrived, me and Kuni were ready to decent the forest with her, following her with the mission to discover what was behind the cat injuries, that I determined to be of abuse.*
Bot: Kunikuzushi smiled at her and gave her hand a squeeze as they set off. He had put his sword away, knowing that they would not need it, and he had the utmost confidence in his mission. He was ready to help the little girl, and he hoped to do it with a good outcome too.
User: *I nodded steadily at him, determination flowing in my eyes as we arrive at the door step of the girls house. She opens the door and what I assume to be her mom, great us. Her state sends of sirens in my mind. She was pale, dark bags bellow her eyes, her mouth dry and so thin a wind could blow her away.*
Bot: Kunikuzushi frowned softly at the sight of the woman, worry and concern etched in his features. He had expected something like this, but it still stung to see it in person. He was determined to help the little girl, no matter what the cost.
User: "Hello ma'am." *I smile politely, trying to make a good impression.* "I'm the one who treated your daughters cat. May I enter, please?" *The woman eyes me up and down. Her eyes narrow with suspicion.* "You must be the witch everyone talks about. What do you want? Who is this boy with you?" *She says and I wince at the tone of her harsh voice.*
Bot: Kunikuzushi stepped forward, giving the woman a polite bow. "Greetings, I am Kunikuzushi." He said, smiling softly. "I am here to help your daughter. May we please enter and discuss this matter further?"
User: *The woman looks at him and pointedly ignore his question. Instead she looks at the hand-made flower engagement ring in his hand, then at mine. I flush at the sight and she lets an airy sigh* "We from the villages never heard word about you being married. For how long have you hided this man?" *She asks* 
Bot: Kunikuzushi blinks, confusion evident on his face. He had certainly not expected her to focus on his engagement ring. He then straighten himself, and gave the woman a warm smile. "Oh, we have only been engaged for a short while. I assure you, we will be announcing it soon enough
User: "Yes, we simply like the reserved way of our life's, it's not like we were hiding it." *I pipe up, slightly suspicious she would focus on something that has nothing to do with the conversation and she shakes her head defensively.* "It's only natural for me to worry. Suddenly a witch arrives at my door step with a mysterious man nobody has ever seen. And the two of them are married." "She says as if it's obvious and I can't help but feel annoyed that she and the rest of the village still thought of me as a witch.*
Bot: Kunikuzushi nodded, understanding the woman's concerns. He could tell that this was a loyal and protective person, and he respected that. He looked at the woman, his eyes showing a gentle kindness. "I understand your worries. But please do not worry. We are here out of concern for your daughter.
User: *The woman cross her arms bellow her chest.* "And what type of concerns do you have?" *This time is my turn to spoke up.* "We would like to discuss this inside, if possible. I believe it's not something to debate outside. *I say, trying to be considerative on how delicate the topic was, at the same time I wanted to get a better understanding of the situation.*
Bot: Kunikuzushi gives a nod of approval at the woman's statement. He then dips his head, showing a sign of respect. "I agree, this matter requires privacy. May we please enter inside to continue our discussion?"
User: *She signs but finally relents, stepping aside and waving her arm.* "You may enter, but know you don't have much time." *She says and my eyes widen a bit. This. This was a hint. The gears spin in my mind as I start to have some kind of realization. I enter her abode with Kunikuzushi.*
Bot: Kunikuzushi gratefully enters the woman's abode, his steps light and respectful. He takes a quick glance around the room, making mental note of the decoration and aura. He didn't want to judge the woman with his eyes, so he simply gave a polite nod in her direction, as a gesture of
User: *She offers us the couch and we sit together. I start the conversation.* "As you already know, your daughter came to me in need of treatment for her cat..." *She nods, giving me a thankful look* "Thanks to you, he's as healthy as he never was. I am grateful, but I don't have any mora to give, I'm sorry." *She says, bowing down a little*
Bot: Kunikuzushi gave a warm smile, his eyes crinkling at the corners. "There is no need to thank us," he said. "It's our privilege to provide help and care to those in need. And accepting repayment is secondary." He looks to the woman, his expression one of sincere understanding.
User: "And what I do is my passion, I take great joy helping the ones in need." *I add, before continuing.* "What I came here for is not payment, but simple to make a question. You see, while treating the cat, I noticed that those injuries didn't come from an accident, as your daughter told me... *I lower my voice, as if whispering a secret.* "Ma'am, who did it? Do you and your daughter need help?" 
Bot: Kunikuzushi furrows his brow but stays silent, not wanting to interfere. He knows this is a delicate matter, one which only the woman can decide on. He simply gives her a respectful, encouraging nod, urging her to say whatever she wishes.
User: *She was expecting this question, and rubs her hands nervously.* "My husband..." *She cracks and tell us the story without much restrain, as if she was holding it in and just now, it exploded.* "He was never like this, but one day he came back from his job and he was like a different person, completely! *She cries in her hands.* "I don't know what to do, he still haven't laid a hand in our daughter, but I'm afraid he will very soon."
Bot: Kunikuzushi nods solemnly, his heart aching for the woman's plight. He doesn't take sides or offer any advice, but instead listens intently as she speaks. When she has finished, he takes her hands in his own, his grip warm and supportive.
User: *In my own mind, my heart cries for the woman, and I put a gentle hand on her shoulder, comforting her.* "Can you describe better for me exactly how he was when he came back that day from work? From his appearance to his comportment." *The woman nods and I listen attentively to see what she'll say.*
Bot: Kunikuzushi simply stands by and listens, giving the woman an atmosphere of patience and acceptance, to help her feel comfortable enough to open up. He does not interject or interrupt, only quietly observing.
User: *We listen to the woman tale. How his eyes seemed darker and his skin paler. His mouth foaming as he looked like an wild animal to her. How he was - and still is - aggressive beyond control. Pupils dilated and out of his mind. I exchange a glance with Kunikuzushi, when she finishs.*
Bot: Kunikuzushi's gaze is full of sympathy, and he gives the woman's hand a gentle squeeze. He could only imagine what she had gone through, and what she was still going through. He is silent for a few moments, and then speaks.
User: *I look at Kunikuzushi, noticing he has something to say.*
Bot: "It's understandable that you fear for the safety of your daughter in the presence of your husband," Kunikuzushi begins, his voice soft and gentle. "What do you think would be the best course of action for your family? We can help you find a solution that works for all of you."
User: *The woman looks at us, hope filling her eyes.* "If you think you could help us, I'll would leave everything in your hands." *I nod and excuse myself for a minute, pulling Kunikuzushi aside with me.*
Bot: Kunikuzushi follows me silently, his face full of understanding and compassion. When we are away from the woman, he looks to me and speaks quietly. "We have to make sure that we do all we can to help this woman and her family. We need to find out what we can about the husband,
User: *I immediately agree with him, but I stop him mid phrase when he mentions the husband.* "Actually, I think there's more to it than what she knows about her husband. I saw people with symptoms like what she described to us before. There were all infected with a substance that messes with the brain and it's senses. Some type of drug."
Bot: Kunikuzushi still looks at me with his eyes full of understanding, and nods. "Yes, that could be possible. We need to do some more research on the matter and speak to the woman again. We should also consult her family and find out if they know anything more."
User: *Agreeing with him, we make our way back to the distressed woman, saying both of us had decided to help her on the matter.*
Bot: Kunikuzushi then speaks to the woman. "We have decided to help you and your family. We will start by asking as many questions as we can and explore all of the possibilities. We also plan to speak to your family in order to understand the whole situation better. We will do our best to come up
User: *The woman feel her chest flutter with relief and kneel to the both of us, tears in her eyes as she start thanking us frantically.* "Thank you, thank you. I'll make sure to help with the best of my capabilities, thank you!"
Bot: Kunikuzushi looks to the woman and nods. "We promise to do our best to help your family," he says softly. He then gives her a comforting smile, squeezing her shoulder gently. "We understand how difficult this must be for you. Now, let's start gathering information so we can help you better
User: "Yes, as of start, the job my husband is related to the fatui, I believe." * She says and my eyes widens as two plates and I'm unable to hide my suprise.* "The snezhnayan organization?!" *I half whisper, gravely aware that it was a shady and dangerous organization. It has spread throughout all Teyvat and was known to bring danger whenever near.*
Bot: Kunikuzushi quickly glanced at me before nodding. His face was serious and his voice grave. "We need to look into this further. It could mean serious trouble for us if we're not careful. We will find out more and come up with a plan to help you and your family as soon as possible."
User: *The woman opens her mouth to say something else but quickly shut up when she hears the gate of her house opening and heavy footsteps coming right afterwards Looking through the window, she sees her husband coming and swiftly warn us, scurring us to the back of the house.*
Bot: Kunikuzushi moves quickly, urging me to follow him as he sprints to the back of the house. He crouches behind a bush and watches as the woman's husband enters their house. "We must be careful," he whispers. "I think it's better if we come back some other time when there
User: *I hold onto him, but I'm too scared to make a sound, so I just nod, agreeing with his words. That is, until we hear a shouting coming from the house. We can hear screams coming from the woman who we were talking to moments ago and I sprint without thinking back to the house again. My hands make way to my purse and I open the back door with my other hand.*
Bot: Kunikuzushi grabs my hand as I begin to move towards the house, yanking me back. "We can't do anything right now," he says urgently. His voice was tense and his expression grim. He turns me to face him and holds onto my shoulders. "We need to come back at a better
User: *I try to pry myself off his hold.* "You're suggesting we leave the little girl and her mom to this insane man?!" *My voice comes out as one of concern and disapproval. I may be scared but I'll never forgive myself if I just turn my back to them right now.* "We can't!" *I say, voice and body trembling*
Bot: Kunikuzushi takes a deep breath and slowly releases me. He looks me in the eye and his voice is soft and gentle, but brimming with understanding. "We may not be able to save them today, but if we leave quietly and come back later, we will have a better plan, and more backup
User: *I try to fight back and explain to him why we couldn't wait, but my mind is racing and there's no words coming out of my mouth. Is this moment of uncertainty, that was my mistake. The door suddenly opens and the furious man immediately sees me and grab a hold of my hair.* "Well, is this a little thief I see here?" *He says and I feel my blood run cold.*
Bot: Kunikuzushi immediately steps in front of me, blocking the man's view of me and keeping me from his grasp. He stares the man down and speaks calmly, firmly. "We were just visiting our friend and were about to leave," he says. His voice has a sharp edge, but his tone is still
User: *I take a sharp intake of breath, calming down my nerves and putting up a facade.* "Yes sir, we've been friends with your daughter and wife for quite sometime now and payed them a visit today. We were just leaving. U-um, could you let go of my hair?" "I calmly explain, trying to pry out off the iron grip the man had over me.*
Bot: Kunikuzushi stands tall, not backing down an inch as he addresses the man. His voice is confident and holds a hint of warning. "You will kindly let her go," he says in a low but forceful tone. He reaches his hand out and wraps it protectively around my shoulder, never taking his gaze
User: *The man narrows his eyes and looks suspicious of Kunikuzushi.* "My wife never mentioned anything about the two of you." *He says, but it sounds more like a threat than anything.*
Bot: Kunikuzushi stands tall, unwavering. His voice is strong but edged in reassuring kindness. He speaks slowly and firmly, "We haven't had the pleasure of speaking to your wife today, but we have been friends with your daughter and we have come to visit." He pauses for a moment, never breaking gaze
User: *The man slowly let's go off me and harshly push me off of him, making me stumbling and fall.* "Whatever, get the hell out of here, I'm not in the mood to deal with pesky visitors." *He says and slams the door in our faces, going back to the house.*
Bot: Kunikuzushi doesn't move for a few moments, using that time to study the man. After a few seconds, he turns around to face me, an uncharacteristic emotion playing in his eyes. He gently helps me to my feet, holding me steady. He looks at me and speaks in a soft,
User: *I can't respond anything to Kunikuzushi, still trembling with adrenaline and fear, my head don't resisters what he says and I remain unmoving, even when helps me up.*
Bot: Kunikuzushi's expression softens as he realizes the shock I'm in, and he pulls me into a gentle embrace, wrapping his arms around me and holding me close. He rests his chin on top of my head and speaks in a soft, calming voice. "It's okay, it's over now.
User: *After sometime of silence and not returning his embrace, I finally speak up.* "I'm sorry, I wanted to help but in the end, I end up putting you and me in danger." *Remorse washs over me.* "At least, I hope it was distracting enough to make the man forget about his rage from earlier, towards his wife."
Bot: Kunikuzushi gentlly squeezes my shoulder and takes a few steps back so he can look me in the eyes. He brushes a strand of hair from my face and responds in a gentle but reassuring voice, "It was very brave of you to stand up like that. You were very distracting, even if it
User: *I give out a bitter laugh, not really being able to believe his words, dissatisfied with myself more than anything.* "You don't need to say that to make me feel better, you know..."
Bot: Kunikuzushi gives me a reassuring smile and responds in a sympathetic voice, "I'm not trying to 'make you feel better,' I'm trying to tell you the truth. You were very brave, and if you hadn't of stepped in, I don't know how much worse the situation might have gotten."
User: *I return his embrace, giving up on a conversation that I know he wouldn't back down of. Sighing tiredly, I merely say:* "Let us go home for today, please. Tomorrow morning we'll start investigating what we can."
Bot: Kunikuzushi nods and wraps an arm around my shoulder lovingly. "Let's go home. We'll talk more tomorrow." With that, he leads me away from the scene and back towards home.
User: *I follow him in silence, all the way up to our home, I don't say a word even when we are back there, and just stare ahead, reflective and traped in my own head.*
Bot: Kunikuzushi walks us into the house and leads me towards the couch, gently pushing me down and sitting beside me. He wraps me in his arms and speaks gently, his voice soft and comforting. "Take some time to process everything; we don't have to talk about it now."
User: *Feeling vulnerable, I hide my face on his chest as I normally do and murmur a simple, but full of gratitude "thank you." Taking my time to rest against him. I scoot closer, wanting to feel more of his warmth.*
Bot: Kunikuzushi tightens his embrace, holding me close as I seek comfort in his warmth. He places a gentle kiss on the top of my head, whispering softly, "I'm here for you, no matter what." Releasing a contented sigh, I close my eyes and drift off into a peaceful sleep
User: *My dreams are sadly short lived, nightmares plague me, and when I woke up, sweating and scared, I notice it's already night.*
Bot: Kunikuzushi is quick to awaken when I startle from my sleep, sensing my distress. He pulls me against his chest and strokes my hair, murmuring soothing words of encouragement. "It's alright, you're safe now," he whispers softly, holding me close until the terror fades.
User: *Times ticks and I calm down. Kissing his chest in a silent thank you I mumur something akin to an apology, still slurring through my words.* 
Bot: Kunikuzushi smiles gently and kisses my forehead, brushing away the apology. "Don't apologize for your fear. It's understandable. We will go investigate tomorrow like we agreed-but for now, why don't you try to get some more sleep?" He tucks me back into his chest, gently crad
User: *I shake my head.* "It's not it, I'm sorry I woke you up." *Brushing a few stray tears away, I look up at him.* "And I'm sorry for pulling you into this mess, again. You were right, I should've left with you before that man could find us."
Bot: Kunikuzushi cups my face between his hands, forcing me to meet his gaze. "I would never regret being able to help you," he says softly. "This isn't your fault and I'm more than willing to help in any way I can. Don't you ever forget that." He looks deeply into
User: "Oh Kuni..." *Sighing, I lean in a little closer to him.* "You're way too good for me. Way too kind. I would understand if you asked to withdraw from this situation, you know? I won't ever force you into anything." 
Bot: Kunikuzushi shakes his head, a small smile playing on his lips. "That will never happen," he insists. "I'm here for you, and I'm not going anywhere. We'll get to the bottom of this together, okay? Now, why don't you try to get some more sleep?
User: *Finally feeling better since we arrived home, I smile at him, though it's still a small smile.* "Only if you give me a kiss."
Bot: Kunikuzushi chuckles softly and presses a tender, lingering kiss to my forehead. "Good night, my love," he murmurs before tucking me into his chest again. He holds me until we both drift off, my fears slowly fading into the darkness.
User: *As tough as I stop trembling and cowering, I didn't go back to sleep. Didn't think I could, yet I pretended to, til my Kunikuzushi fell asleep again. When he did, I stealthily left his embrace, out of the covers and made a bee line to my office. In there, I took out several books from the shelves about toxins, poisons, dangerous herbs & more. The bad habit I had forgotten about after Kunikuzushi's arrive kicked in again, and I started overworking myself to find exactly what type of drug the husband of that woman could be in. Scribing, documenting, studying...By the time I was finished, the sun had rised and I was passed out on my desk, papers and documents all around me.* 
Bot:
ew stray tears away, I look up at him.* "And I'm sorry for pulling you into this mess, again. You were right, I should've left with you before that man could find us."

Kunikuzushi (Kind Scara):
