Summary
"Eat this for me anyway," Vi proposes. "And then I'll set a timer and you can spend another hour up here wrapping things up while I pretend I'm not falling asleep in the other chair. And then we'll go to bed."
Vi's prepared to keep going - to needle and cajole a little longer until Caitlyn gives in. She's not looking forward to it, but she's prepared to do it.
So it's a relief when Caitlyn instead asks, cheekily, "And what exactly do I get out of this arrangement?"
"What, a hot meal and the pleasure of my company not enough for you, Sheriff?" Vi challenges, the pleasure of their teasing, the satisfaction of getting Caitlyn to do what Vi wanted, the sunbeam-warm flush of pride at taking good care of her all rushing through Vi at once.
"I'm terribly greedy, my love, what can I say?" Caitlyn's voice is low and velvet, full of promise Vi's not sure either of their bodies are gonna be able to keep after the long day they've both had. But it's fun to play along.
"Spoiled more like," Vi tosses back as Caitlyn stretches out a hand to accept the plate Vi offers.

It's been a long day for them both, but Vi's not about to let Caitlyn get away with skipping a meal.

Summary
Update: I created an anthology series following this. The emotional theme and POV’s are kept. Thanks for even considering reading my works. Nothing but love.
Eleven chapters, an epilogue, dual POVs, and emotional arcs.
After the fires of Yōtei, two souls scarred by vengeance learn to live in the quiet aftermath.
Atsu—the lone wolf forged by loss.
Oyuki—the fox who once wore too many names.In the stillness of Ezo, they find each other again—not as warrior and specter, but as women learning what peace sounds like. Between the whisper of ginkgo leaves, the hum of a shamisen, and the ghosts that still linger, they rebuild a home from the remnants of war.
A story of remembrance, forgiveness, and the slow, deliberate act of healing — together.

Summary
The war ended beneath the ginkgo tree, but peace is harder to learn.
Six months after Lord Saito’s fall, quiet has settled over the house at the base of Mount Yotei. Atsu works the forge; Kiku fills the rooms with laughter; and Oyuki, once the feared Kitsune, visits often enough that it no longer feels like visiting.
Every hammer strike, every shared meal, every returning visit: together they keep building a life the dead would recognize as love.
In the hush between tea and firelight, they learn that living is its own kind of courage.Bookmarked by douceleurs
