[ his pride may not come to him easily beneath whatever weight this atmosphere possesses, but nothing can strip sheer animal instinct from him — in the face of hostility, tomoe growls at the boy, a back-of-the-throat hissing sound with his sharp fangs bared and his ears pinned back against his head.

the accusation stings. did he? for five centuries, tomoe had thought that he and mikage had an understanding. that after leaving behind his meaningless existence of violence, he had a purpose, had someone to belong to without question until one of them, someday far in the future, died. but he had been wrong about that, it turned out. should he have fought it? he would have liked to. if he'd been able to, he would have hunted mikage down to the ends of the earth, wouldn't he? he's certain he would— ]


Hah. [ there had been violence imminent in the curl of tomoe's claws and the lashing of his tail, like he might throw himself at makoto and go for his throat. but it fizzles out before it can ignite. instead, tomoe shoulders past him roughly. ] What choice does a servant have in the matter?

[ mikage had said: take care of the shrine until i return.

no, tomoe was betrayed. mikage tied him to a post like a dog and left him there to wait. and now he doesn't even have that anymore. ]
