(um... Toshiko's bic vanished....)

She slowly nodded and got up to look at the portrate and was shocked at how it looked and felt like she was either looking at a photo or a mirror. "Oh... wow... that's amazing..." Miryoku said then blushed when she noticed how sudductive her mistress had made her look. "Though I think you would lay down now... you seem really tired." she said softly and a bit worriedly not wanting her mistress to over do it.

(sorry if it sucks I have a bad headache)

Pleased with Miryoku's approval of the picture the mistress nodded. "Yes, I think it is time for some rest." Toshiko breathed softly and turned to meet eyes with her personal servant. "My night robes please." she said as she lovingly set all of her artist supplies away from the bed so she wouldn't hurt the drying painting. Waiting patiently for her servant to come over, she gazed atthe painting with care in her eyes. Each work of art was near and dear to her, and she was very pleased to see how well she had captured her servant on a canvas that would hopefully last forever.

"Yes my mistress." Miryoku said softly with a slight smile before going over to the closet and getting one of her personal favorite night gowns of her mistress' and helped her get it on. It was a nice soft silk one that she found most comfy to curl up to her mistress in.

(sorry couldn't think of much else)

Accepting Miryoku's help, Toshiko slipped into the bed, now in the silken nightgown. Closing her eyes, she sighed heavily, letting the stress leave her body, wanting to just lay there relaxed if she couldn't fall asleep. She had been looking forwards to this day, but it seemed that it had been messed up in a way that she had never expected. "Just a simple nap... I don't want to waste this whole day because of that stupid male." she said, a bit of anger creeping into her voice as she hinted to the elf she had cursed and threw into one of the most remote and harsh areas on the earth.

((When is Miryoku going to make her move on Toshiko?))

Miryoku nodded a bit as she laid down next to her mistress after changing into her night gown and relaxed. "Um... Mistress... if you don't mind me asking, if you don't like men... do you like anyone?" she asked curiously though was trying to keep the blush from creeping into her cheeks... it was very hard though.

(I've already tried once or twice XD but I have an idea)

Toshiko was surprised by Miryoku's question, though she knew that many pondered that question. She herself really didn't know, but she did know that men were terrible beings except for a few exceptions. "I like you Miryoku, if that's what you mean. I like many people, men are just bad excuses for being alive." she scuffed at the male sex in her voice and then turned her head to her servant. "Is that what you ment by the question or do you mean on a deeper level of feeling?" she asked professionally, not letting feeling enter her voice as she said the last sentence.

Miryoku's face turned rather red when she heard her mistress and she couldn't really find it in herself to look at her for a few moments. "I... I mean on a... on a deeper level..." she said softly her face turning redder and redder by the second. She had never felt this way... so... embarrassed... so... shy... why did she feel this way now? Why her mistress?

Hearing her personal servant Miryoku ask if it was deeper, Toshiko developed her own blush. Looking at her beautiful blonde she took in a steadying breath and blushed deeply. "Well... I-I have deeper feelings for you... Miryoku... I don't like anyone around you but me... When Kei had attacked and looked at you like that..." she started, her fists clenching. "I am not sure of... Feelings... Many of my kind burried their feelings long ago..." she breathed feeling ashamed that she couldnt give a good answer to her curious servant.

"Did.... did you feel this way towards your other personal servant?" Miryoku asked softly as she looked up at her mistress still blushing though thought her mistress looked even more beautiful with the blush on her cheeks. She couldn't help feeling stupid as she asked these questions... couldn't help feeling as though she shouldn't say anything... but she wanted to... she wanted to know if her mistress liked her back.

(how are you doing?)

Toshiko's eyes met Miryoku's for a bit before looking down, feeling like a small girl again. Such questions of feelings, she hadnt experienced for many years, it nearly made her feel old. "No." she said finally. "I thought of my last servant more as a sister.... You, are different, Miryoku." she said gently, her eyes seeming to get a bit brighter. "Remembering when I first saw you, I immediately knew that something was different about you, something was special, unique. I still don't understand what it is, I do hope you can forgive me." she said humbly, looking back up at her beautiful blonde companion.

((I'm struggling with health issues, school, and softball right now. So I'm really sorry if my adding is sporadic and random, but I'm trying to do my best.))

(oh I'm so sorry, what's wrong? I mean if you feel like talking about it? and don't worry take all the time you need I understand being sick)

Miryoku looked at her mistress almost surprised when she said she thought there was something special about her and that made her blush. "Well thank you mistress.... but there is nothing special about me other then my sometimes untamed powers... but that's nothing to brag about or be proud of." She said softly though was just being honest... she never thought of herself as anything special... she only saw the one thing that set her apart and that was her unstable powers... her raw untamed abilities.

"It doesn't have to do with your powers." she said immediately, and then reached forward and cupped her soft cheek. "its something completely different..." she breathed and then looked down at the sheets. "I think its everything... About you." she said finally and then ran her thumb over the soft flesh of her cheek. "I don't know... I am not giving very good answers am I?" she said with a slight smile and chuckle, her cheeks still rosey.

(( Well I have a health issue that they can't figure out what it is, and they are trying to do a pain management thing and its not working very well, and with school and softball on top of all of this. It kinda sucks.))

Miryoku's cheeks started to warm up a bit as she listened to her mistress and soon found herself hugging her. She couldn't think of anything to say but she knew she was happy that her mistress seemed to have feelings for her... even if she wasn't sure what they were herself.

(oh that sucks but I can understand, I hope you feel better X3 )

Toshiko was surprised as Miryoku's arms locked around her in a hug, but smiled. "Maybe... Tomorrow we can have a day and do what you want... Anything you want." the elven female offered gently and ran a gentle hand threw her blonde hair. Closing her eyes, the raven haired female took in the moment, and savored it. She felt excited and rilled up, yet calm and peaceful all in this one moment. What was Miryoku stirring with in her?

((me too, but school is almost over thank goodness.))

"but don't we have a full schedule tomorrow? There's... I think two more children that have gotten that awful bug... the request came today and asked for us to come tomorrow..." Miryoku said softly and it was clear that she had really taken to the lifestyle of helping people that needed it.

(lol school getting out is always good XD )

Touched to hear Miryoku so worried about the children, Toshiko's hug tightened lovingly and then relaxed as she pulled away to look into her servants blue eyes. "We will be swift to heal the young ones, and when we are done I will cancel the meeting with the manager, give him the day off, and us the day off as well. We've been working very hard, it's time for rest and fun." she said and then brushed her hair behind her ear slowly. Miryoku was practically in her lap at this point, and the closeness of their bodies was something surprising to the elder female. She wasn't apostles by her companion, and she didn't want to push her away. She rather liked the closeness.

Miryoku smiled some as she heard her mistress then was surprised by the tight hug and how close they were. Her cheeks were soon as red as can be and she didn't know what to say or do.... but she knew she liked the closeness and couldn't help herself from leaning into her mistress a bit. She knew it wasn't exactly right for her to like her mistress like she did but she couldn't help it... she just really REALLY liked her.

Looking down at the girl in her arms Toshiko reached out and gently brushed the blonde hari away from those gorgeous blue eyes. "Does that sound appealing?" she asked softly, not wanting a bunch of silence between them. She felt that it would make the situation turn akword, and that was something the elven mistress didn't want between her and her servant. She liked this girl... A lot more then she had previously realized.

"Yes Mistress it sound heavenly" Miryoku said softly with a smile then blushed a bit more though kept a soft smile on her lips. She couldn't help but lean into her mistress and close her eyes a bit relaxing. "You're so warm my mistress... it's quite soothing." she smiled as she looked up at Toshiko though really seemed happy sitting there in her lap.

Feeling her dear servant press closer to her body, Toshiko's cheeks darkened in a shade of pink. Deep moss green eyes looked into the pure blue eyes of her dear Miryoku, and she smiled. She felt touched that her dear one loved her warmth, and enjoyed her presence. Usually such a powerful presence as her own scared away all the people that got into the aoura's range. It was something Toshiko was used to all her life. Now, she was in a new world, and it was up close and personal. Not one hundred percent sure if she liked it or not, the elven female brushed her long raven black hair aside from her face. "I'm glad Miryoku." she said gently and on instinct leaned forwards and kissed the girl's forehead, and didn't understand herbody's want to do such a thing as she pulled away swiftly, worried she had offened Miryoku.

Miryoku smiled happily at her mistress then blushed a bit more as she felt the soft kiss to her forehead. Though she didn't look up at her rather confused when she felt her pull away quickly and wondered if there was something wrong. She didn't want there to be anything wrong... she liked it here, in her mistress' arms and so close to her.

(sorry I really wasn't sure what to post...)

Toshiko saw the worry on her servant's face and then looked down. "I'm sorry... I didn't mean to make you feel uncomfortable from that... I don't know what came over me." the mistress whispered, her hands clinging a little tighter to the blonde female as she tried to sort out her confuzed thoughts. Half of her said to keep persuing more kisses, and the othe rhalf said duty first it was time to distangle herself from her servant.

((*cough cough* make miryoku kiss her *cough cough*))

(lol XD so discreet XD )

Miryoku looked up at her mistress and bit her lip some before moving a bit "It's okay my mistress" she said softly and looked down for a second before slowly moving to be closer to the woman then, rather quickly, moved so she was cupping her mistress' cheeks and kissing her, and not just a generally kiss either, no she was actually full on giving her mistress a kiss not really thinking about it with her eyes closed and her face blood red.

((Lolz I try. XD))

Toshiko adored the way that Miryoku got closer to her, and happily accepted the girl into her personal space. She was suddenly given a kiss, and it made her eyes widen in surprise, and her body froze. But soon she melted into the kiss, and was kissing her servant back softly. Her mind was unsure, but her body seemed to know what it was doing and what it wanted.

Slowly Miryoku pulled away then looked away blushing. "I'm sorry Mistress..." she whispered since she didn't exactly know if her mistress liked that or not.. it was kinda hard for her to tell really.
