Ragyo was dead, the life fibers were gone, and everything was just a matter of recovery. Easy enough right? It wasn’t like donning Junketsu all those previous times had a lasting effect on her. Something that was maybe even a cause for alarm.]
... Sanageyama.
[Holding a cup of tea, she stared at her reflection in it, frowning as usual. Her tea breaks were growing to be more and more often.
The academy was rebuilt mostly for sentiment rather than any true intention. A stranger revelation considering that Lady Satsuki always had an intention for most of the things she did. Maybe she did, and she simply decided not to make it known. Yet.]
Sit with me.
[That's not a question. Not like she needed to make it one. She took a careful sip of her tea, sighing out in the relief that it brought-- like a rush. Go ahead. There was an empty cup there, just waiting.]
[Although he'd never admit it because he has some tact, he'd found the end of their battle to be disappointing on some level.
Sanageyama was the kind of guy who lived for fighting, which the war on the life fibers had provided plenty of, but now without it most of the opportunities were gone. The handful of people who were stronger than him he had no chance of ever reaching without a goku uniform, while everyone else was too weak to keep up.
Still, he should be happy, right? The world was saved and clothing wasn't a threat anymore.]
Of course, Lady Satsuki.
[A dip of the head to acknowledge her, like a bow, before taking a seat beside her.]
Although I'll have to pass on the tea this time.
[Drinking it before storming the academy to take on Ragyo was an exception; it was important then to join in, but it was such a hassle trying to make it through one cup. Considering this is a more casual situation he figures it's not worth the effort.]
[A slight smile formed on her lips. She couldn't help but be amused at how different things were, even if everything seemed to be exactly the same just at this moment. She had many reasons to be happy about, but good ol' Satsuki kept her lid cool as ever.]
It is done. All of our purposes have been fulfilled.
[She took another slow sip, considering what that meant. For the academy especially. She was no mindreader, but it was only logical to guess that the power lost with the fibers was enough to rain on his parade.]
[Nothing gets past her, of course. The question actually brings a smile to one side of his lips, slight but amused.
Would it undermine everything they'd done if he told her the truth? Would she be angry with his answer? It didn't matter. Whether he denied his displeasure or lied about it, he knows she'd see through it. He doesn't have much of a choice except to be straight with her.]
I'm glad you got the success that you wanted. Being a part of it really was something else.
But... [A pause, and he shakes his head.] even before we met, I lived only to fight. Knowing it's over, I don't quite know what to do with myself now.
I can't go back to gang fights after the battles you've given me here, Lady Satsuki.
And you will not. Who's to say the fighting is done? This world is far from perfect.
[She only opened her eyes then, speaking as if it were obvious fact. His commentary was more of a confirmation than it was a surprise, so was far from angry. She wouldn't bother to give him an idea of just how much she related to him.]
So long as two humans live on this earth, there will always be a battle. Therefore, as long as you are my sword, you will always have someone to fight.
[She wondered vaguely if she'd even be up to it. She was a force to be reckoned with, certainly, even now... but for now she was depending on her already standing reputation. Since that day, she had yet to fight anyone to be sure, but she was certain she was slower than usual.]
