He looked up at the sword, nodding. "You are very talented Soi, that sword is very beautiful. Certainly one of the most beautiful swords I've seen. But I have to admit, that's not many." He chuckled a but, "It's very lovely though."

It took him a minute to concentrate on the blade. He couldn't quite stop thinking how she was sitting over him, her robes in a disarry and her hair falling in lovely tendrials arounf her shoulder. "Yes, your... I mean it is amazing..." he smiled a bit, looking up at her.

She looked at him, then looked down at herslef, "OH!" she quickly moved off his and stood up trying to fix her robe, "Sairi is going to kill me..." she looked at where her hair had fallen, her sword abandoned on the bed.

He got up and calmed her, taking her hand in his. "It's alright, I can see the back where it fell, let me fix it." He gently twisted the tendrils back into the hair do, and straightened the hair pins. "There, good as new."

"I don't know if I can do this...I'm not used to paying attention to such stupid details, like peices of hair...and if my dress is straight..." she sighed, lowering her head.

He still stood behind her, so he slipped his arms around her small waist and planted a soft kiss right behind her ear. "It's the first day, just give it some time, alright? Don't get stressed about things like that, you've had a hard enough time as it is."

"I just don't know...I'm not used to this life acting as if I am fragile...I'm used to being covered in dirt and soot and who knows what else, and no one caring, if a few peices of hair fell out of my bun, no one cared, but now, I have to be perfect or I will be looked down upon, maybe not by you or Sairi, but other people..." she tried not to start crying, "Even women in my own village always had to be perfect, because even men there expected them to be creatures of beauty even on the worst of days."

He moved in front of her and tilted her face up. "Listen, you gon't have to impress any men. Don't worry about that, the man that truly loves you will stand with you as you make beautiful swords just as he would escort you out for the evening. That stuff doesn't matter when you're talking about love. He'll understand." He caressed her cheek, and leaned down to kiss her cheek close to her lips.

"Its not the matter of love, its the matter of society and their views of others...a woman who dresses like a man...I won't get any respect...I don't walk with poise or grace, I walk tall when I should walk with my head down...stupid things that I don't understand because I've always lived on the other side of the line." she layed her head on his shoulder.

"Then be a man if you want. If that's what you want, then do that. Be happy and comfortable and do what you have to." He hugged her tight.

"But I'm not a man.....thats the thing..I'm caught between...the comfort of being a man, and the desire and need to be a woman..." she let out a long sigh.

He felt really bad for her, and didn't know what to tell her. He just held her, sad he couldn't be any help when he made her confused to begin with.

Tatsuko nodded, pulling on her shirt and re-arranging her robe. She giggled, once she had straightened herself out, and wrapped her arms around him. "I understand... and I don't mind." She liked being in contact with him. He was warm, but it was a pleasent warm, like the chi. "It's an interesting power, I must admit." She wanted to kiss him again...
((My apologies, I won't be able to post until Sunday night. I'm sorry. ^.^))

She nuzzled his neck a bit, "I like being a woman to some extent...but I scared of the responsibilities of being a woman..."
