Two drabbles: Eileen/Tsubaki and NagareTitle: Logic
Character: Nagare
Spoilers: Kamakura arc
Nagare decides early on that there is no point in visiting the boy in the hospital. It isn't as if he can accomplish anything, after all.
It's best to act as if the child (no, not child, abomination) is already dead. A clean break is better than watching his son (it, there is no merit in thinking of it as his son) waste away in slow agony. Besides, the boy is a monster and too weak to even live long enough to die properly. He isn't worth missing.
Nagare's gut twists, and he wishes that his heart could agree with his logic
Title: Life's Precious Jewels
Pairing: Eileen/Tsubaki-hime
Spoilers: King of Swords arc
Author's Notes: They were so sweet before they became horrifically doomed. Written for femslash100 on live journal.
Eileen stands at the edge of the room, terrified. The people around her glitter and gleam, and every woman is wearing jewelry worth more than Eileen has seen in her life.
"Eileen! Why are you alone?" Tsubaki-hime runs up to her, her diamond necklace glimmering. She frowns when she sees Eileen's misery. "Aren't you having fun?"
Eileen shakes her head. "I don't belong here," she says softly.
Tsubaki-hime puts her hands on her hips. "Nonsense. You're the prettiest girl here." She smiles. "Dance with me."
As she allows herself to be led, Eileen thinks that Tsubaki-hime's smile is prettier than any gem.
