The Color of the Phoenix's Tail: Part Four

Shuuei transfers, Kouyuu broods, Ryuuki gets a new friend. Drama, I-3

"I'm transferring." Shuuei leaned back and looked out the window of Kouyuu's office. "I think I'll be more suited to the military."

And Koku-daishougun had caught him practicing with Sou-taifu and pounced on him like a wolf on tasty prey, and he still wasn't positive that Sou-taifu hadn't set the whole thing up. But he wasn't saying that part; it would be bad for his image.

Shuuei and Kouyuu cute for the win! And of course, Ryuuki is love.

Most favoritest part is Shuuei's description of events....Koku pouncing on him like tasty prey.......yum *amused*. Sou Taifu so set it up. He and the high generals have an arrangement, you see, so that those who can actually practice with him get hijacked by the Uringun...

<3 and squees,

*hearts* Thank you!

I would in no way put it past Sou; all three of the grand advisors just love to meddle in people's lives. I think it must be some kind of prerequisite of the job or something. *snerks* Makes you wonder what Kouyuu and Shuuei will be like, in forty years or so.

I imagine Shuuei would be high-general or a Taifu himself, elegantly and handsomely finding and tormenting new recruits to the Uringun. Kouyuu would be as eccentric as Kijin in one of the Sr. Secretary positions...

And hopefully be important uncle-figures helping Shuurei and Ryuuki in keeping Seiran from SPOILING THE LITTLE ROYAL BRATS HEIRS ROTTEN.

One can hope, right?XD *hugs shiny OTP*

*laughing* I can just see the two of them, all white-haired, still sniping at each other.

And, good grief, Seiran /would/ spoil the kids rotten, wouldn't he? Oh man.

Seiran's heaven is a big, sunny garden overrun with mini Shuurei's and Ryuuki's. ::nods definately::

*laughing* And a never-ending tea pot for Shouka, so he never has to /make/ any.
