[03:05:58] Itadeki Hyroko asks, "We gonna talk?"
[03:14:30] Face was covered by her hands, had clearly been crying; with the tears going down her cheeks still. She did not understand the situation at all, She had a mild headache from crying which didnt help. She would peek out from behind her fingers having heard his voice."I ...am so confused..."
(Mayumi Megami)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[03:22:11] Itadeki simply sighs, shifting himself into the corner of the room with a frown; maybe he should have explained a few things before deciding to storm off in anger. Clearly, he was still slightly annoyed, scowl plastered on his face as he moves through the room, turning to face Mayumi with a cripplingly stern voice, his usually friendly demeanour entirely gone. "I used to wanna be one, a Qilin I mean. They're the damn best there is and I woulda given anything, including my memories to fight alongside them. You have absolutely no idea how much respect I hold for them, signing their lives away to protect Jianghu. Giving up everything they ever cared for not for themselves, but for the sake of others. So training one, being able to make that difference in a Qilin's power, being able to make them better than they already are is an absolute fucking honor for me, Mayumi. It's without a doubt the biggest thing in my military career and will most likely be the biggest thing to happen throughout it. If I succeed in this, you have absolutely no idea how amazing they'll turn out, and I'll be responsible for the empire's greatest weapon being stronger than ever before. This, THIS is what will make or break my service to the Fourfold. This is what makes the possibilities of the academy's future so bright. If she comes out stronger than ever, and it's down to my training. Then it'll be a damn honor, even more-so than it already is. An academy instructor training a Qilin is an amazing honor, and people are gonna respect that."He stuffs his hands in his trouser pockets, exhaling slowly. The whole explanation was probably far longer than he'd expected it to be, and most likely came off way harsher than he meant it to, but this was something that meant a lot to him, and he made that evident. "Then again, you'd not understand how important that is to me, would you?"
(Itadeki Hyroko)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[03:37:32] She wiped her eyes and sniffled a bit. Military stuff never really made much sense to her, at least the nitty gritty details of it. Still she had always done her best to support him in whatever he decided to do, Normally she had at least some understanding of what they were but for the first time she had no clue, at all.She listened to what he had to say, though staying rather quiet, about as quiet as she had been prior to them meeting to be exact. She probably looked like a complete mess, smeared makeup from crying, her face a bit puffy from wiping tears away.She didnt know how to react, He had never acted towards her like this, not even after branding that young kitsune. From her point of view he almost felt like a stranger, like maybe it was some valmasian hiding behind an illusion; but she knew it was not because that made no sense either."I wont lie and say I fully understand, but if its something important to you...Like always I will support you...I just want you to be happy and make sure that you are sure about your choices..."
(Mayumi Megami)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[03:49:29] Itadeki shrugs casually; he knew upsetting her like this was entirely unnecessary, but he also understood the sheer level of what he'd been tasked with, and how it could affect the eventual upcoming war with Valmasia. "I'm... Sorry."He dips his head slightly, lilac bangs falling to obscure his face. That sense of overwhelming anger, not at her but at himself this time. It seemed once more, he'd found himself falling to his duties, his own morals becoming obscured by his service to Jianghu, something he knew he couldn't control. As always it came down to loyal service, no matter the costs and he was tired of it.In a blinding flash of movement, his body spins; hand crushing against the wall behind him in one violent punch. "Last thing... I ever wanted was to upset you.... And here I am again...."He pants softly, the wash of pain seering through his fist as the thin slither of crimson slowly trickled from his knuckles and down the plain white walls. What the hell was he thinking? This wasn't going to help, this was the opposite of helping. But the guilt was there, it wasn't Mayumi's fault she didn't understand just how things were, or that half the time she never had a clue how the Fourfold worked, but he still seemed to drag her into his issues, when he found himself questioning things she was always the one to suffer for it. "You could do... So much better than me..."
(Itadeki Hyroko)

[03:58:01] Mayumi Megami asks, "You promised me...Forver, remember?"
[03:58:52] Mayumi Megami says, "You gave me your word, even in your wedding vows.."
[03:59:44] Itadeki Hyroko says, "And just look... Look how I repay you... For everything."
[03:59:44] Mayumi Megami says, "And you are going to be a father soon, Your /duty/ is to us first and foremost."
[04:01:26] Mayumi Megami says, "Everybody stumbles, even falls from time to time...What matters is we get back up."
[04:01:26] Itadeki Hyroko says, "Hmph."
[04:03:08] Mayumi Megami says, "We are not little kids anymore, nor can we afford to act as such...We are going to be parents soon."
[04:03:08] Mayumi Megami says, "Creating new life."
[04:04:00] Mayumi Megami says, "Its our job to prepare them for the future."
[04:04:00] Itadeki Hyroko asks, "So because of that, I can't be happy about my job finally fucking meaning something?"
[04:04:51] Mayumi Megami says, "I never mentioned your job."
[04:05:42] Itadeki Hyroko says, "You could see I was proud, and you cast it off as if it meant nothing... And because of that, I reacted like a fuckin' asshole."
[04:05:42] Mayumi Megami says, "No I did not."
[04:05:42] Mayumi Megami says, "I asked you to explain."
[04:06:33] Mayumi Megami says, "Because I did not understand."
[04:06:33] Mayumi Megami says, "And you went off on me..."
[04:07:24] Itadeki Hyroko says, "I tried explaining a dozen fucking times, Mayumi."
[04:08:16] Mayumi Megami says, "I'm not a soldier, I'm not a warrior.."
[04:08:16] Mayumi Megami says, "Most of that stuff I just find confusing."
[04:10:49] Itadeki slowly turns, crimson droplets slowly falling from his clenched fist. That same scowl still plastered on his face, eyes red with tears, whether through the pain or something else entirely was anybody's guess. "I-I'm sorry..."
(Itadeki Hyroko)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[04:15:56] Would get up and hobble over to the bed, clearly not feeling to well from all the stress. She would carefully sit on the edge of the bed, he belly big from the new life growing inside of her. "I don't feel so good now...I'm going to get some rest..."
(Mayumi Megami)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[04:20:12] Itadeki Hyroko says, "Guess I'll just... Go."
[04:21:04] Mayumi Megami says, "I still love you, Itadeki."
[04:21:55] Itadeki Hyroko says, "I know..."
