Shigekuni Genryusai - Morning of the Sentencing
Shige's breathing was steady when Venom leaned down over his sleeping form and lowered herself down upon the bed. his mind began to stir as she began playing with his locks of brown hair, the strands twisting gently between the woman's fingers. as of late his hair had been growing longer and the male hadn't bothered to cut it, currently down to his shoulders the hair flowed much like that of his son, the locks were a bit thicker than Takeshi's but the hair itself was just as soft. Shige shifted lightly as the words echoed inside of his mind when Venom spoke them, an inner part of his mind opening as he started to awaken.
The woman then curled up next to him and began toying with his bare chest, the tickling feel of Venom's fingers against his bare flesh making him shift a little more just before she tickled down the side of his ribs. it was at this moment that those familiar teal blue orbs of perception would open, an almost fiery luminescence about them. as he glanced over he noted the red haired vixen curled up against him on the bed and smiled wider than many had seen him do in ages. a single hand lifting to brush those bright red locks, almost petting her as she lay against him. it was nice to wake up this way even if he hadn't slept in a while. the time spent sleeping was almost a vacation and waking up to Venom was more than he could ask for.
"Omaesan..."
The word left his lips as he gaze upon his wife, his hand still stroking through her locks as he moved to push himself up a little bit, more into a half sitting position as he allowed himself to fully wake up from his rest. the ex-shinigami leaned forward his lips pressing against Venom's as he kissed her softly, pulling her closer during the kiss as he held it for a couple moments before letting it go and staring into the eyes of his true beloved. a light yawn left the male's lips as he would eventually break the gaze and move to stand, glancing to the table where his artificial arm lay.
"Yeah, I know... I'm not really looking forward to this though..."
It was the truth of the matter, Shige didn't really want to have to do this to his own, but the law had to be upheld. if he held back on anyone then his own men would view the laws as soft and have a higher probability of violating them in the future. as he moved to the table he reached out with his left arm and grabbed the artificial limb, pressing it against the opening in his housing system and allowing the limb to attach to his body while the nerves around the area suddenly became dead to his senses. he rolled his neck a little as the muscles tensed from the motion, his right arm moving as he rotated it around in the socket making sure that it was secure before he did anything else.
"It's been a while since I've actually slept.... it was nice, a bit different but nice."
It was after saying this that the male would move to begin donning the clothes that he had laid out for today. slipping the black hakama around his waist before tying it tight and allowing the blackened fabric to flow down past his feet. moving to the next part of his outfit he slipped the white and red top over his chest, the sleeves hanging down to his wrists and then flaring out to one side. the spirit bells around the belt like area of the top rang lightly on the spiritual frequency as the male pulled up the right sleeve of the outfit and began wrapping it in the kerosene soaked cloth. it was a new thing he'd been doing ever since he'd met with Mio down in his training area but he hadn't really elaborated on why.
"How much time do we have before we need to be there?"
