II. the priestess's third wish | video | violet city

[fullmoonfortune]

[Ryoji's grinning this evening because - not only is it Tanabata, one of the festivals he never had the chance to celebrate back home - his Eevee egg has hatched! The sleepy fox pokémon in question is lolling around beside him, and he's scratching her stomach softly as he shows her off.]

Hello everyone! It's Ryoji again. I hope everyone's celebrations are going well, and that you've made your wishes! I know I have.

[The Eevee yawns and Ryoji chuckles, turning the 'Gear away from her and back to himself.]

I guess Orihime-chan's still a little tired. She's named after the beautiful woman from the legend - isn't that great? I thought it'd be fitting, since she was born today.

[And while he is super interested about wishes, he won't ask about anyone's in public.]

[That's the ticket. Ryoji doesn't answer for a moment or two; he's thinking of how to put it.

Finally, he seems to find a way. Orihime yawns and climbs into his lap, so he scratches between her ears softly as he speaks.]

I was created, not born. And [his voice, where it'd be cheerful, is a little wistful, with the makings of a wry smile hiding behind his scarf] because it's Tanabata. Any wish today'll come true, I'm sure.

[ ...He was created? What does that even mean? For a moment, Rangiku sits there in some sort of stunned silence before finding the words to continue onward. ]

Created? Wouldn't the day of your creation be your birthday? [ She shrugs about the wish thing. ] I'm not sure what to wish for.

[fullmoonfortune]

[The day of his creation... He sighs a little.]

If you put it that way, then I guess it'd be something like... The third of December? [He smiles about the wishes though; it's peeking oer the edge of his scarf, almost secretive.] I think I'd wish to stay here with Rangiku-san and everyone else.

[...really he wished that Nyx wouldn't appear in Johto but hey she hasn't done so for a month already --]

[conduit]

December third?! Mark it on your calendar~! We're going to be celebrating it for sure! [ She giggles, as she claps at the compliments. ] Well, I hope your wish stays true! After all you just said your wish out loud!

[ Well, if he keeps quiet about that wish, hopefully it won't happen1 ]
