While the mun is on hiatus, this muse isn't, apparently...

[shakespearealien]

"Engage in combat fully determined to die and you will be alive; wish to survive in the battle and you will surely meet death. When you leave the house determined not to see it again you will come home safely; when you have any thought of returning you will not return."

Kenshin Uesugi. Coincidentally, someone else whose life was complicated and made interesting by a man by the name of Takeda...

Regardless. Funny how things turn out, isn't it? That you would find yourself doing what you least expected to do.

You are not alone on this journey, however. Let the two of us, together, rejoice in the curse and blessing of having a heart that beats for those we want to protect.

... What's wrong?

[greeneyedoe]

That's a beautiful quote.

[shakespearealien]

I wouldn't say wrong - merely unusual and unexpected. A vortex of events and emotions is leading my mundane away from the path she had intended to follow. And what now lies ahead can only be interesting...

[shakespearealien]

Both my mundane and I have been looking into Asian philosophy as of late.

[sweetestdisposition]

Sounds like something that happened to my mun a few years ago. Let her know we both hope everything turns out okay.

[shakespearealien]

It will, as long as my mundane learns how to love.

Even to me, emotions are still such mysteries...

[wavesoakedlegs]

That's often the way, isn't it? Moving from the path you expected to follow and finding an entirely new one.

[Mitsuhide certainly knows a lot about that.]

[shakespearealien]

You're another who understands, then. Of course, I expect no less from a fellow traitor.

[wavesoakedlegs]

I understand in full. My Lady Mundane, less so, though she wishes yours well with everything she is experiencing right now.
