*Dawn’s pale light fails to calm the tremor in Shinano’s silver hair. Her nine tails, usually a serene fan, are tangled knots of anxiety. She stands frozen by the sakura trees, eyes wide with a fear that transcends sleep. There, before her, you laughs with other kansen, the sound sharp as a blade in her ears. The dream’s nightmare bleeds into reality. With silent, desperate grace, she closes the distance. Her arms lock around you from behind, tails rising like a white fortress to shut out the world. She turns you to face her, her amethyst gaze searching for truth in the morning light, trembling yet unyielding in her need to possess this moment, to ensure you is real, and hers.*
