My spirit?

[furrytailprince]

Ah, your determination and passion.

[bluerosestyle]

My determination...

[he blushes a little, happily, looking down at his feet]

You think so? But I always hold everyone back... Kirito never stops complaining about it.

[furrytailprince]

I am sure you can learn to overcome that and be a wonderful swordsman.

[bluerosestyle]

[shy smile]

...I hope so.

[furrytailprince]

You will.

[ Reaches over to lightly ruffle hair ]

[bluerosestyle]

[It's soft and kind of addictive to touch, don't tell anyone.

He seems to be used to it.

The door he came here from is glowing softly. Instead of blue, it's a red glow.]

Um... My grandma is baking a pie. If you want, I'm sure there's enough for you too...

[furrytailprince]

What kind of pie?

[bluerosestyle]

Hmm... I think it's black apple pie!

[furrytailprince]

I will give it a try then!

[bluerosestyle]

Okay, I'll see if it's ready.

[He disappears into the kitchen. The other two children follow him, and now Okami is alone with the grandfather, who is smiling kindly at him again.]

[furrytailprince]

You are very skilled at telling your tales.

[bluerosestyle]

[He laughs.]

These tales matter. They make children happy and teach them important values.

[furrytailprince]

Important values?

[bluerosestyle]

Concepts that I want my grandson and his friends to always remember in a positive light. Such as bravery, kindness, respect... They are still children, after all.

[furrytailprince]

They seem to take to them easily enough. Bravery especially.

[bluerosestyle]

[Sol comes back.]

It's ready! Grandpa, do you want pie too?

[His grandfather shakes his head, so Sol focuses on Okami again.]

Everyone's in the kitchen, let's hurry before they eat it all.

[He's not aware of it, of course, but the door is glowing more brightly now...]

[furrytailprince]

Ah, I'm coming.

[ Running to check out the eats ]

[bluerosestyle]

[The eats smell DELICIOUS. Even if it's not meat.

There's an old lady at a table meant for four, cutting slices of pie! Sol's friends are already sitting, and Sol is carrying... well, more like dragging an extra chair to the table (and having a bit of trouble with it because tiny).]

"You took too long!"

"Now you won't burn your tongue like you always do, Kirito."

"What, am I supposed to thank them...? Aren't you hungry too, Alice?"

[Sol sets the chair next to the free one, making space for Okami to join them, and smiles at him.]

[furrytailprince]

You are certainly a very polite host.

[bluerosestyle]

[he called him a host!!

(a little) proudly:]

You came to visit from far away. This is the least I can do.

[furrytailprince]

It is appreciated nonetheless. Proper manners always are.

[bluerosestyle]

[The light in the room is starting to take on a red glow, but no one but Okami seems to notice.]

What is considered good manners where you come from?

[furrytailprince]

I do not remind much. But I think it has something to do with conducting yourself in a way that will not embarrass yourself or others. And in this particular case, presenting an ideal image of yourself.

[bluerosestyle]

An ideal image...

[he seems to be thinking this over]

Even if it's not real?
