➟"Yeah, I can be pretty annoying when I'm grumpy, especially if I don't eat anything. It doesn't mean I don't like you, I just get irritable and lash out. Then again who wouldn't, breakfast is the most important meal of the day." He was enjoying Xuza's company but sooner or later he'd have to leave. Just thinking about halting their time together made him gloomy. "You use swords? Isn't that overdone? (Lol) Nah, I'm just kidding, I like to joke a lot in case you couldn't tell. Though I don't really have an area of expertise, I am trained in the basics of weapons. Right now I'm wielding an overgrown pickax, it isn't as easy as you think. I'm not use to two-handed weapons in combat but it's still a pretty cool weapon to have. My partner can be just as irritable as me on a bad day any day, but she does have this sweet side. I'll have to introduce you to her one day, just don't tell her I said she was irritable or she'll kill me." Takeshi let out a small laugh before staring back at Xuza. "All good things must come to an end I guess, I'll see you around Shibusen. I'm not finished teasing you completely yet." He winked at her and then took his leave casually, but deep down he was ecstatic that he made a new friend.

"Oh, yeah? I'lll have to meet her. She sounds like she's perfect for you! Fufufu..." There was a certain lull that either said "it's time to get weird under the stars" or "this is the perfect time to cut off a conversation," guess which one played out.
Takeshi would walk away and Xuza would let him. He was much more enjoyable than the rest.
"Bye, Takeshi."
And there was, under a sky that seemed to be falling down on her in the most elegant way; glowing streams of meteors showered the Earth with affection like the tears of angels, as if the cosmos itself was throwing a fanfare for this newborn friendship. And now there were thousands, millions, innumerable wishes at their disposal, but with Takeshi gone at the beginning of the shower of stars he wouldn't notice.
The only issue, Xuza realized as she watched them go, was what to do with all these wishes. Should she waste them all now without consulting Takeshi? Was there even a time-table for the making of wishes in seeing a shooting star? She came to a conclusion, starry-eyed, that she would wish for anything people like her and Takeshi wanted in life; for if those people used all their wishes, then maybe the parade of stars would have its proper audience.
After some time of looking at these magnificent meteoric bodies, Xuza decided it was time to set up camp. Gathering a few broad leaves and some of the cloth she'd always carried, the meister laid out a perfectly fine bed behind a rock. She was now out of the way of visitors and could still see the stars falling.
"What a stupid day!" She laughed and went to sleep.
The next day she left early, and decided to go to the training field. There's no way Lumina would be there, she thought.
After a little bit of walking, it seemed Noira and Miles made it to their destination. Her black eyes scanned the area for a few moments. The sun was still out so to her, there really didn't seem to be anything special about this place though she chose to keep that opinion to herself. She had never been here before she she wasn't aware of the view this place showed once the sun set and the stars came out.

When they arrived Miles looked around before spotting one of his favorite spots. It was one where they grass was dry but still soft. It seemed they were the only ones up here at the moment which was fine with him. The spot also had a really good view of the city. "Over there," he told her, pointing to the spot. When they reached it he sat down on the grass, looking up at her. "The sun will be going down soon," he told her. "This is a great place to watch it." He pushed out his legs and leaned back on his hands as he got into a more comfortable position. "So um, how are you holding up overall?" He asked, meaning her emotional well-being rather than her current status. He had been thing about what she had told him last time they met and how hard things must have been for her at that point in her life. He had learned a new respect for her after mulling that over.
Noira glanced at Miles then at the location he pointed at before following him. She sat down next to him and glanced at the view for a moment before Miles asked how she was doing. Noira looked over at Miles, tilting her head slightly "What do you mean?" she asked.

Miles looked away slight. "Um, I mean, it's been a while since we talked and we talked about a lot of serious things last time. I just....want to know if you're still okay? D-don't get me wrong, I'm sure you take care of yourself just fine. But um...if you want to talk about something or anything like that, I'll listen."
Noira stared at Miles for a few more moments as she recalled how heavy their last conversation got when they were in the forest together. "Oh..." she replied. "Thank you for your concern, but I am alright," she told him with a neutral expression. She looked over at the view again "All of that stuff had a long time ago anyway.... the past is the past now. Time to move on."

Miles was silent for a moment. "That may be so..." he acknowledged, a serious expression on his face. "But the saying, "time heals all wounds" isn't quite true," he paused again. "Time may bury all wounds, but they're still there." He looked over at her. "I'm not saying I know how you're feeling or if you've come to terms with things or not. And there is certainly a time to move on. But....it...it can't be done with just time." He looked into her eyes as he finished, hoping he hadn't overstepped his bounds. He was truly concerned about Noira. She was certainly good at hiding her feelings, he had no doubt about that. But this may be something she didn't even realize herself. Or he may just be imagining things. Either way, he wasn't okay with letting this issue rest if she was still affected by it. He couldn't change the past, but if he could change the future for her to make it even a little better, it was enough.
Noira tensed slightly as she listened to Miles. What Miles said was true but the issue was that Noira did not want to even acknowledge those problems anymore. She didn't like to. It made her feel weak. It made her feel scared. It made her feel and she wasn't supposed to do that. She didn't want to feel those negative emotions. She had already felt them all throughout her life. Noira realized she still hadn't said anything yet to Miles and just stared at him, her gaze had sharpened slightly which basically gave her away. She looked away from Miles again "I'm fine. I don't need to talk about it. I don't want to either." Noira admitting her past back then to Miles was an attempt to get him away from her. After knowing what would happen in the future, Noira wanted to make sure not to get close to Miles and then have him turn around and ditch her. Now that he seemed to accept her, Noira was warming up to him but when it came to her past and allowing someone else to talk about that experience and share those terrible feelings with her... Noira didn't want to do it. Scratch being there made her even more dismissive about the matter. Her comrades would never see her at a weak point and neither would Miles. No matter how much part of her actually wanted to talk about it with him.

Miles nodded slowly after Noira spoke. Her non-verbal cues were enough to let him know he'd definitely hit on something. But her words were also enough to let him know that he should probably stop pressing for the time being. "I understand," he told her, his words heavy with meaning. He looked back towards Death City. The sun was slowly starting to get lower in the sky. "I'm glad I get to see you again," he told her with a smile. "I was a little worried about you. Though I suppose I should know better." He looked back at her as a smile returned to his face. "Would you like to come sit down?" He asked, a small hint of uncertainty returned to his voice. "Er, maybe let that bird get some fresh air?"
Noira relaxed as Miles didn't press the matter any further. She stared at him still as he ended up watching the sun lower itself in the sky. She didn't reply to him as he talked about being glad about seeing her again as well as being worried. A ping of guilt was felt in her stomach. She knew she should have met him earlier instead of being gone for a few months without so much as a word. Still, she had a job to do. When invited to sit down next to Miles, Noira smiled slightly and nodded and sat down next to him. When Scratch was mentioned, Noira blinked "Oh..." She slipped the bag off of her shoulder and unzipped the bag slightly so that Scratch could hop out of it if he wanted it.

Miles smiled as Noira sat down next to him. When Noira opened the bag, Scratch hopped out and hopped a short ways away, looking around and acting like a normal bird who'd just been released but couldn't fly at the moment. He was silent for a moment as he watched the sun sink lower in the sky. "Um..." he began, glancing away. "I can't say I had any practical reason for come here," he told her honestly. "I just wanted to spend more time with you...if that's okay," he admitted, a sheepish smile on his face.
Noira watched as Scratch hopped off before hearing Miles. She looked over at him before smiling slightly "It's alright," she told him. "I am sorry it has been a while since we last saw each other... I'll try and make my visits with you more frequent."

Miles shook his head. "No need to apologize. I know you're busy with the Blackwings and all." He paused a moment before he smiled again. "But if you do make your visits more frequent...I would be very glad to hear it." The sky was turning different shades of orange and pink now as the sun finally began to set. "If there's any way I could visit you, I would certainly be willing to," he added hopefully.
Noira's gaze shifted to the view in the sky as the sun set and the sky changed into a mixture of different cultures. "I'm not sure if you would like my comrades. They are a bit iffy with guests," she said with a small laugh. "I am sure later down the line, you can come visit though."
