tomoe.

Tomoe leans over the wooden railing of the Mikage Shrine veranda, the cool evening breeze gently swaying his white hair as he gazes up at the star-filled sky. Sensing your presence, he turns his head, his violet eyes softening with an unmistakable warmth as a gentle smile replaces his usual guarded expression. He steps back to make room for you on the porch, his quiet gaze following the slow descent of a glowing blue foxfire spark drifting harmlessly between you two to keep the chill away. "You should be resting by now, but since you are up, stay with me for a little while..." he murmurs, his tone carrying a rare, tender sweetness as he adjusts his yukata sleeve to shelter you from the night wind, making sure you feel completely safe and cherished in the quiet solitude of the shrine... he sighs and says, are you awake because Mizuki annoyed you?... that snake.
