On Mun giving up Nano

[foxtwin]

Please, please dear mun don't think I am mad at you about that. Truly, it was getting rather awkward with my story just not really doing anything. And I like your idea of setting up a structure for my story, so you are less frustrated with it all the time.

My only concern is... when was the last time you wrote anything for me, my dear mun? I don't want to fall by the wayside. Not to sound too critical, but I do know you have a tendency to do such things. Trust me, I understand there are many distractions around, but you say you enjoy my story.

I just don't wish to be forgotten.

I have never settled for being run-of-the-mill. Do you have a name, owl-woman?

[blackish]

My name is Odile. And you, woman - what word for fox is your name?

[foxtwin]

My name is Chayen Lisel Yvani. The family name is the old word for fox

[blackish]

Chayen. It is musical. Like a blackbird singing.

[foxtwin]

My family is well known for our ties to the forest.

[blackish]

My kind eats blackbirds, you must know.

[foxtwin]

Good thing I'm not actually a blackbird then, isn't it?

[blackish]

Whereas I can be exactly what you want me to be. Everything that you should wish for.

[foxtwin]

And for what price, Odile-owl?

[blackish]

A vow. Nothing more.

[foxtwin]

Nothing more indeed. You're talking to the wrong person to pass anything off as 'just' a vow.

[blackish]

If you will not give me your vow, I shall simply take something else in its stead. Father chose the swan. Maybe I will choose the blackbird in its cage.

[foxtwin]

I did not say I wouldn't give it. But I do not give things so blindly.

[blackish]

What do you want to see, my lady? I will show you it.

[foxtwin]

What exactly you would wish me to vow.

[blackish]

Clever, very clever.

[blackish]

You must vow your love for me.

1/2

[foxtwin]

Foxes usually are.

2/2

[foxtwin]

But that I can not vow.

[blackish]

Because you do not love me? That matters little.

[foxtwin]

It is unwise to lie in vows.
