Finding Home

Seien is re-introduced to the court. Familes are reintroduced to each other. Drama with Fluff, I-4

Seien's jaw tightened, but he did stand and turn to face the Court. The roar that greeted Shou-taishi's gesture of acclaim was distant in his ears; it reminded him of the sound of the riots, a year and a half ago.

I like the bit about "imperial dignity," because you're right, that isn't one of Seiran's more prominent qualities in canon. And I like the change from "his face was still" to "his eyes were clear."

Wee Shuurei and Wee Ryuuki are the cutest things to ever walk the earth. :)

Thank you! They really are just adorable; and they manage to make things better for each other. *chuckles* Which, I swear, is half the point of this whole arc.
