Tales From Nabari

These are a couple short fics written for the kamatani fans gift exchange for @tmoblrina . I did two because the first one ended up being very short haha

I hope your holidays went well and I hope you enjoy!

The Owl and the Cat

A chilling wind blew the last fallen leaves across the pavement, bringing with it a hollow rustling and a faint scraping sound. Autumn was turning to winter. “Zeku” was well on its way to completion, and the only thing to do in the meantime was wait.

Shijima was fine with waiting; she’d spent most of her life in anticipation of her desire, her release from immortality, and she found no point in getting antsy right at the end. However, Kouichi was different, and this is how she found herself at an art museum in Tokyo.

“What are we doing here?” She asked, looking up at Kouichi unamused.

Kouichi shrugged and pushed his glasses up on his nose.

“I thought it’d be a good way of passing the time.”

“I was passing time well enough napping at Miharu’s.” Shijima spoke bluntly, yet she followed Kouichi inside nonetheless, holding up her arm to look at the extra length of her sleeve rather than any of the paintings.

“Well I appreciate you gracing me with your presence,” Kouichi joked. “It might be nice, you know. A change of pace. Something other than just watching and waiting.”

“I suppose…” She responded, but she was suspicious, not entirely sure there wasn’t some ulterior motive to coming here.

Shijima followed Kouichi through the museum, matching his pace, observing him and the people around them as he observed antique vases and surrealist works of art. Kouichi’s expression often seemed listless and far off, as if he were deep in thought with something.

“You’re spending too much time with Kumohira,” She said as they made their way over to the renaissance exhibit. “You’re starting to make the same faces as him.”

“Oh, am I?” Kouichi smiled nervously, scratching his cheek with his index finger.

“Yes.” Shijima narrowed her eyes as she began to connect the dots. “Are you…having second thoughts? Is that why we’re here?”

“What? Of course not!” Kouichi’s voice came out at a higher pitch than usual. He was taken aback, but this only made it seem like he was lying. He let out a long sigh to compose himself.

“Look, I want this as much as you do. You should know that. But that doesn’t make it any less bittersweet…we’re so close now, I guess I just want to make the most of it before it’s over. Appreciate all that the world has to offer, does that make sense?”

Shijima looked down, putting her hand in her pocket and turning over the piece of amber that Miharu had given her not too long ago.

“Yeah…I guess I can't argue with that.” Shijima smiled softly as she looked back up at Kouichi.

“Good.” Kouichi smiled as well, and he placed a hand atop of Shijima’s head, giving it a light pat.

Shijima rolled her eyes and knocked his hand off with her arm.

“Haha, sorry…would you like to continue onwards?” Kouichi asked.

Shijima nodded. She followed Kouichi once more, this time paying attention to the art as well as the people around her. She couldn’t deny that some of it was compelling, the brushstrokes showing great skill and beauty.

Soon they stood in front of an old painting with a wooden frame. The background was dark, and it depicted two subjects, a white owl and an equally white cat, posed facing the viewer. The painting of the animals drew a large crowd, patrons murmuring about the human-like expression in their eyes.

Kouichi and Shijima looked at each other and laughed. They remembered posing for an artist long ago, but neither expected anything to come from it, let alone to see it again in a museum so many years later. The crowd around them began to take notice of the laughter, so they moved away, Kouichi still holding his sides. Soon they would be gone from this world, but it was nice to know that they would be remembered.

Baking at the Rokujo’s

The cold came in early this year, frosting the windows and covering everything around it in a thick, glistening blanket of snow. At the Rokujo’s home, the snow stacked up so high against the house that if you were little, all you saw from the windows was a blinding white, so suffice to say, going outside was not optimal. Young Tobari stood in the kitchen staring out the window above the sink, following the trail of snow down, observing how the heaps grew smaller and smaller, little by little, the closer to the sun they were, making mental note of everything he could recognize that was peeking out of the top.

“I wanna play in the snow!” Miharu’s voice was small and distant, but it was still loud enough to take Tobari away from what he was doing and get him to turn around.

Miharu sat by the front door trying to put on his shoes in preparation, and Asahi soon appeared kneeling down beside him.

“We can’t go out right now, Miharu. The snow is this high!” She said as she flourished her arms up towards the ceiling, ending by wrapping Miharu in a hug and bringing him into her lap. “It’ll gobble you right up!”

Miharu giggled, and Asahi scooped him up in her arms and stood up, stepping around a space heater in the hallway as she made her way into the kitchen.

“I know what would be fun,” Asahi started as she opened the fridge and began gathering ingredients into her free arm, setting what she could not carry onto the counter beside it. “Let’s make a Christmas cake! It’s a little early, but you can never go wrong with winter sweets. Would you like to help, Tobari-kun?”

“Christmas cake?” Tobari asked.

He thought of the Christmas cakes he’d had in Ireland, stuffed with currants and raisins and other things he didn’t particularly enjoy, but Asahi had not brought out any of those things, and on top of that she included strawberries in her mental list of ingredients, so Tobari was confused about the whole thing.

“Haha, what’s with the funny look?” Asahi asked, tilting her head to one side as she set Miharu down on the counter beside her.

“This doesn’t look like the ingredients for a Christmas cake…”

“Hm? Oh, I suppose it must be different in Ireland huh? Well here in Japan, a Christmas cake is a sponge cake with strawberries and cream.”

“Oh…” Tobari mumbled in English. “Okay, I’ll help.” He said after a moment.

Baking reminded Tobari of his grandmother, so it was a bittersweet activity, but one that was of comfort to him, one that brought him back to simpler times when he still got to be a child, before he met the Rokujo’s and was swept up in the mess the shinrabanshou took wherever it went. It was a welcome distraction for him, and Tobari figured that Asahi needed it just as much as he did, probably even more so.

“Great!” Asahi smiled as she handed two bowls over to Tobari. “Do you know how to separate eggs?”

He nodded. Asahi passed a small basket of eggs over as well.

“Six, please.”

Tobari set the basket of eggs beside him on the counter and began the process of separating them into the two bowls. With each egg, he would gently tap the shell against the counter, break it in half, allowing all of the white goop to pour into one of the bowls while keeping the yolk contained in the other half of the shell. On the fifth egg, he struggled with a tiny piece of broken shell in the bowl with the egg whites.

“Need some help?” Asahi asked, glancing over from what she was doing: helping Miharu measure out the flour.

Tobari shook his head, not wanting to seem incapable.

“I can do it.”

“Okay.” Asahi smiled, keeping one eye on Tobari as she leveled out a cup of flower and let Miharu empty it into a large mixing bowl.

Tobari still struggled; however, one last piece of shell glided around in the bowl and evaded his grasp.

“Try scooping it out with the large part of the shell,” Asahi offered. “The small pieces want to go back where they came from, so they’ll stick and stay inside.”

Tobari nodded and grabbed the half of the eggshell that was laying out on the counter. He dipped it in and effortlessly scooped out the stubborn piece, beaming to himself at his success.

“Thank you…” He said after a moment, slightly embarrassed that he ended up needing help after all.

“Of course,” Asahi grinned. “It’s a neat trick, isn’t it?”

“Yeah.” Tobari said as he separated the final egg.

He thought about telling his grandmother about the discovery, and then remembered he could not, he could only tell it to her headstone once they returned to Ireland, and suddenly he was a little sad. But Asahi had more instructions for him, so he did his best to focus and put the sad stuff out of his mind.

Tobari measured the rest of the wet ingredients and poured them in one by one while Asahi mixed until they were combined. Asahi then poured the completed batter into two round pans and carefully set them in the oven. She picked up a kitchen timer and clicked it to the 30 minute mark before setting it back on the counter.

“There! And while we wait, we can make the meringue.”

“Meringue!” Miharu repeated with his arms up in the air.

“Haha that’s right!” Asahi smiled, gently tapping her finger to Miharu’s nose, causing him to giggle.

Something inside Tobari hurt seeing this. He knew how scary the shinrabansho could be, how many things could go wrong if they were to use their secret technique, and dreaded all of that immensely. He promised that he’d be strong and protect everyone. He’d stop all the bad outcomes and prevent Miharu from having to go to his mother’s gravestone if he wanted to tell her things. He was only a child, but incidentally that made his resolve stronger.

Tobari was quiet as they made the meringue. It went fairly quickly anyhow: combine ingredients and mix on high until it thickened and looked like frosting, but he did his fair share of helping and Asahi was determined to praise him for it.

“Great job, Tobari-kun! Thank you very much for your help.” She said as she reached out a recently washed hand and ruffled Tobari’s hair, dampening the top of it a little.

“You’re welcome…” Tobari mumbled in English, then repeated it again in Japanese, doing his best to sound polite and proper. He smiled to himself, feeling bashful but all around content with the positive attention.

“I’m going to finish up washing the dishes, will you take Miharu into the other room for me? I’ll bring the cake in once it’s finished.” Asahi said with a wink.

“Oh, of course.” Tobari nodded.

He took Miharu by the hand and led him out of the kitchen, thinking of a way to keep him entertained in the meantime. A game, or perhaps a book.

Asahi quickly washed and dried the dishes, taking out the cakes once the timer went off. She prepared the toppings as the cakes cooled, then layered it with strawberries and cream, spread the meringue evenly on the outside, and decorated the top with strawberries and liquid chocolate, writing the words “Merry Christmas” in English and drawing an impressive portrait of Santa underneath the lettering.

She set the finished cake on a serving tray and brought it into the other room with a proud “ta-da!”, only to find Tobari reading and Miharu leaning on him, asleep.

“He tired himself out…” Tobari said softly, trying not to wake him.

“I see…” Asahi covered a laugh and set the cake down on the coffee table in front of the couch before taking a seat next to Tobari.

“It looks pretty.” Tobari said as he admired the workmanship, smiling at the English lettering that must have been done with him in mind.

“Thank you.” Asahi replied. “Would you like to try a slice?”

“Yes, please.”

Asahi nodded and cut two slices of cake, giving one to Tobari along with a small fork and held the other in her lap to try for herself. She watched Tobari take a bite and stifled a laugh at seeing his eyes light up and his body relax, too entranced by the cake to think about sitting up straight.

“It’s good.” He said before taking another bite.

“You were a good helper.” Asahi responded. “You’ll have to help me bake again, once this is all over…”

“Yeah. That sounds nice.”

And then they both thought, “everything is going to be okay”, as if it were a mantra, as if it would be true if only they thought it enough times. And they both wholeheartedly believed it. They had to.
