There can be a kind of beauty in imperfection, sometimes.

...

That's fine. You think I don't know that already?

No one is ever really on your side. Not really.

They're just in it for themselves.

-she's trying to look stoic and hardass-

-but her eyes are rimmed red, a little-

...

(Then, Link asks - why'd he save her?)


That's the thing - every sword I made was closer and closer to that perfect sword. If one had a thousand, the next would have nine-hundred-and-ninety-nine, and so on.

But did I reach it? (chuckles) I don't even think the World knows. You could say I divided by zero with my swordmaking. An impossibility - unless you do so with a limit.

-she blinks a few times-

...I don't know. Obligation. You're trying to be the person you think you're like. That's in your self-interest. It's easier to do whatever you think your nature is.

Muramasa... don't you get it? I bet that's what Michaelangelo said about all his sculptures. Trying and trying to get it closer to perfect.. that might be the core of an artist.

...Heh. Yeah, if you put it that way... I'm one hell of an artist, aren't I?

(What's she trying to insinuate, now?)

I mean... you know. You're all up here assuming what you think I'm like. Don't dish it out if you can't take it.

-smiles, holding up one finger-

You're definitely a fashion designer, if nothing else!

Haha! Hell, that could be a new career of mine.

... (looks down at herself)

(and her still-very-Oriental clothes)

Hmm...


Mrmm...

(Link folds his arms.)

Monika and Muramasa's cute bonding is sweet, lovely, uncorruptible.

except for the mildred staring deadeyed from the top of the stairs at the two

Wanna give it a try...?

-Monika doesn't notice the demon child-

Why should I bother? You've already made up your mind, obviously.

Eh, I'll figure something out. Later, though...

(looks UP at Mil)

Oh, hey. New haircut treating you well?


...

(Link sighs. Now he's figured out that it's gonna be impossible to sway Cori from this... habit of hers.)

(But he doesn't say that. Instead, he just says...)

>("Well, you ain't dying.")

(Not on his watch, at least.)

Hey, hey...

-Gently rests against him-

You're already perfect. Don't get twisted.

What if there’s no better word than just not saying anything?

... -she sniffles-

-all the tension just drops out of her-

-link can see that she's getting a bit tearful-

Er...

(Okay, now Link's officially at a loss for words.)


Yeah, sorta. Christmas stuff, how about you?

(Monika) Man, I dunno... I mean, with the tendency for time to just fly here...

Bye. Thanks.

(well then)

(Link sighs, sitting back down and watching Cori go.)

(What he's thinking right now... not even he knows.)


I mean, at this point Christmas isn't about Christ. It's more like a universal festival, isn't it?

"Sandra! I'm serious! My last two December's have been spent freezing my ass off, in some shitty, cramped cockpit, in Illinois. Let me have this, will you?"

They laughed anyway, too glad to raise any real objection.

I'd set up some mistletoe but I'm 90% certain it hurts vampires.

"Let's not have any other holiday hijinks, all right?"

Eires leaned in and gave Sandra a kiss on the cheek.

"Come on, everyone else might have the day but we'll take the evening for ourselves."
